My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins novel Chapter 57

After Florence left, she subconsciously scanned through the crowd to look for Ernest, but found him nowhere.

Ernest was one of the judges, to avoid any trouble, the judges wouldn't be in too much contact with the contestants.

But would she see him again today?

The only reason why she could achieve such a high grade was because of his doubtless 10 points.

She thought for a while and then opened her WeChat to send him a message.

Florence: Mr. Hawkins, thank you for today.

Not long after, Ernest replied: You deserved it.

Three simple words, and it was just his style of speaking, Florence could even imagine his expressionless handsome face on the other side of the phone.

She smiled, and put her phone back.

After a while, her phone rang again, she took it out and surprisingly saw another message from Ernest: If you really want to thank me, show me properly.

A proper thank you?

Florence was a little perplex, but she thought about it, she had to thank him especially since he already asked for him, she couldn't decline it.

So, she replied to his message with: Okay, just these days.

Ernest on the other side of the phone seemed to be in a better mood after he read her message.

She wouldn't be inviting him to dinner again, this time, she would have put more brain into it.

After the contest ended successfully, there was a celebration dinner in order.

The designers, the managers, all the employees were all gathered around one table.

"Florence, this one is to you, I was amazed by your performance tonight, congratulations on your win!" Winnie raised her glass to toast to Florence.

Florence got up immediately, "Thank you Mr. Clifford."

After this toast, immediately another two got up to drink with Florence.

"Ms. Fraser, congratulations, you will do even better next time, hopefully you will be the finalist!"

"Ms. Fraser, this one is to you."

Because of her price, a lot of people came around to toast to her, one after another.

Isabel on the other side, didn't look quite happy.

She won the same price, but all her thunder was stolen by Florence.

Florence couldn't drink as much, her face blushed quickly, and her eyes started to look sleepy.

Cooper was worried she might get too drunk, so he got up and drank some of the toasts for her.

"Florence is a little drunk already, I will drink for her."

Then, Cooper started to empty his glass.

Florence looked at him touched, and said in a lowered voice, "Thank you."

"Are you okay?"

"I a fine."

Florence shook her head, she felt quite dizzy, but in a room like that, she couldn't get away from the drinking.

Cooper looked worried, "You should take a rest, I will drink all the other toasts for you."

Cooper filled his glass again just as there were more people coming around.

Isabel said mockingly, "Ms. Fraser can't drink? As soon as she won her price she forgot about the others. She doesn't even want to bother with us drinking with her and now she asks her assistant to take her place."

It didn't really matter to ask someone else to take over the drinks, but when Isabel said it out loud, it seemed to have changed.

The ones who came over for a drink suddenly weren't as friendly anymore.

Cooper knitted his brows, "She can't drink that much."

"Ms. Fraser is our main role of tonight, everyone wants to congratulate her, it shouldn't be too much to ask to drink with everyone."

They both won the first price, but them acting different showed that Florence was different.

Florence felt very dizzy, she was already annoyed just hearing Isabel's voice, her anger suddenly rushed through her body.
