My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins novel Chapter 686

“He’s not here.”

The woman impatiently dropped a sentence and was about to walk away.

Florence was shocked, how came Ernest was not there?

She did not care about the pyjamas she was wearing. She hurriedly followed the woman out of the room and asked anxiously,

“Then where did he go? When will he be back?”

“Why do you have so much nonsense! Are you a sparrow, chattering incessantly!”

The woman yelled directly at her with an angry face.

Florence froze in place for a moment and flickered her expression. She was shocked.

This woman had a bad temper, right?

She stood awkwardly in place for a moment, not knowing what to do.

The woman gave her a disgusted glare and had no intention of answering her questions. She turned around to leave.

Florence panicked. If this woman did not say anything, where was she going to find Ernest?

She did not know anything about the situation here either.

When she was troubled, at that moment, three little heads emerged from the window.

They were all five or six years old children, two boys and a girl.

One of the boys yelled, “Pretty girl, that handsome boy has gone to the palace.”

They were supposedly talking about Ernest.

But, palace?

The special term made Florence feel surprised. She hurriedly asked, “Little girl, may I ask is this place Raflad?”

The little girl nodded obediently, “Yes.”

She was overjoyed, it was Raflad!

She and Ernest were unexpectedly rescued from a desperate situation and found this country.

Florence said excitedly, “Little girl, can you bring me to the palace?”

It was very uncomfortable for her to wake up in a strange place. Being disliked as well as scolded by the owner of the house made her feel even more uncomfortable and uneasy.

All she wanted to do now was to find Ernest quickly. She wanted to see him and make sure that he was safe and sound.

The little girl’s eyes flickered and she hesitated.

“We can’t go into the palace, I can take you to a place nearby ...”

“What are you talking about? Is the palace a place for a lowly person like you to go near?”

The woman who walked to the door scolded the girl.

The little girl immediately lowered her head. It was obvious that she got scolded quite often and was afraid of this woman.

Florence frowned. She did not like the fierce woman.

“I’ll go there myself.”

She looked at the pyjamas she was wearing, “Can I have the clothes which I was wearing before? I would like to change my clothes.”

The woman’s fierce gaze shifted directly towards Florence.

With a face full of disgust and without hiding it, she scolded loudly,

“The palace is not a place that you can go to just because you want to, so don’t think blindly. Stay here in peace, your brother will come back after his business, don’t go and put him into trouble. You shall behave properly as a sister.”

Brother?

Sister?

Florence widened her eyes in shock. She thought that the woman did not know how to socialize and had misunderstood her relationship with Ernest.

She explained, “You’ve misunderstood, he’s not my brother ...”

“Is his name Ernest?” The woman asked.

Apparently, Ernest had woken up much earlier than she had.

Florence nodded, “Yes, but my relationship with him...”

“Yea, he said that he’s your biological brother.”
