My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins novel Chapter 674

Ernest looked at Florence with a sullen face, and his chest felt heavy.

He knew that what Florence said and did was all for his sake, to lighten his heart so that he wouldn’t feel guilty.

He had brought her to suffer all the way here, and he was already sad to see her suffer.

She had wholly abandoned the opportunity to be a mother because of him. Every time, whether it was with drugs or condoms, they were reminding each other of his drag.

Florence became more and more anxious seeing Ernest’s awful look.

What she feared most was that things would come to this point.

She grabbed his hand in panic and explained in a flustered tone.

“Ernest, I’m really fine. I don’t care. I came with you to look for the medicine as a trip. I’m still young and I don’t want a child now either.”

“Don’t overthink it, okay?”

She said the last sentence weakly and full of unease and panic.

Ernest’s heart couldn’t help but tighten.

He looked straight at her, and he felt his chest heavier and heartbroken.

“Florence.”

He called her name in a low voice.

Florence was nervous as she looked at him, “Yes?”

Ernest pursed his lips for a moment before speaking slowly.

His voice was deep and husky, “I’m not as fragile as you think. I’m your man. Just let me handle all of these.”

His large hand gripped her small hand back and squeezed it tightly in his palm.

“I’ll find the medicine as soon as possible. We’ll definitely have a child of our own in three years.”

It would only take three years.

Florence looked at Ernest in confusion, not expecting him to say such words.

But perhaps, this was all he could do to comfort her.

He pretended not to care, not to feel guilty, just to make her look forward to the promise for three years.

But it would still be brutal in his heart, right?

Florence suppressed it in her heart and nodded earnestly. Her voice was firm and choked.

“Alright!”

They would have their own child in just three years.

They would be happy.

Ernest tightened his grip, and he continued in a meagre voice, “I’ll use a condom next time.”

Florence was a little hesitant.

However, Ernest didn’t give her a chance to dwell on it and just threw the contraceptive pill into the bin aside.

Florence looked at it in a daze, and all the thoughts in her mind were gone.

Since he had already uncovered this, then let it be so to use condoms.

After this incident, they continued on their way, rocking in the car.

After two more days, the caravan stopped.

However, when they stopped, the shaking of the car didn’t stop. It swayed slightly, just like an earthquake.

Florence instantly tensed up, “Is it an earthquake?”

Ernest had his headset on and was always aware of the latest situation.

He said in a deep voice, “It’s fine. There was an avalanche not long ago up ahead. It’s just aftershocks now.”

An avalanche.

She had watched it on TV that an avalanche was enough to bury people alive.

The altitude here was very high, and it was white all around, with very thick piles of snow.

The ground shook once there was an avalanche.

It was lucky that it happened before, not that they drove past before the avalanche. Otherwise, all of them would have been buried alive.

“The road ahead was covered by an avalanche. It will take a while to reopen the road.”

Ernest went on to explain to Florence again.

When Florence looked ahead through the front window, she saw that almost all the people in the vehicles in front had gotten out of their cars and were walking forward with various stuff.

They were probably going to open the road.

It just so happened that Florence had also been sitting in the car for a long time, and her body was a little sore and weak.
