My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins novel Chapter 696

Since Alton kept urging Ernest, Andrew was afraid that Ernest would refuse once he got pissed.

In a hurry, he echoed, “Mr. Hawkins, please go ahead and leave the rest to me.”

After a pause, he lowered his voice and said to Ernest, “The princess isn’t a patient woman. You can’t make her wait for quite long.”

When Florence heard Andrew’s reminder, her heart sped up.

Uneasiness kept surging in her heart, making her quite irritated. She truly wanted to do something.

Gritting her teeth, she gazed at Ernest without a blink.

Ernest frowned slightly. After a moment of hesitation, he said to Florence in a deep tone, “Take your time and enjoy your lunch. I’ll ask Andrew to send you back to your room, all right?”

Although he had warned the woman, the custom here was quite different and that woman was unkind. Hence, he couldn’t let that woman take care of Florence again.

He had planned to send Florence back to her room personally after lunch.

Florence instantly tightened her grip on the chopsticks.

Thinking that Ernest would go to have lunch with some princess, she had lost her appetite when looking at the abundant dishes on the table.

She felt quite upset for some reason.

Hence, she blurted out, “No way.”

As soon as she spoke, Florence was taken aback.

So was Ernest.

Florence had always been obedient, sensible, and extremely. Now he was going out for business, but she refused.

Ernest stared at Florence deeply. Without any hesitation, he nodded dotingly.

“Okay.”

Then he turned to Alton and said determinedly, “You can go back first. I’ll go there later.”

Alton gaped. He had never expected that Ernest didn’t only follow them immediately under their urge, but also he changed his mind to see the princess later.

His attitude change was all because of the woman who was eating at the table.

Alton looked over at Florence again, ponders appearing in his eyes.

Ernest’s tall and strong figure leaned forward right away, standing in front of Florence to block Alton’s gaze.

He looked obviously unhappy, “Mr. Carlton, please.”

He directly asked Alton to leave.

His defensive attitude made Alton’s mouth corners twitch. He just gazed at that woman longer. He wouldn’t eat her up, would he?

Inwardly, he blamed Ernest for being quite stupid as he treasured a woman so much.

Although Alton was quite unhappy, because of Ernest’s identity and status, he still kept smiling.

“I see. Mr. Hawkins, you must want to get prepared. I can wait for you outside.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Alton didn’t wait for Ernest’s response. He turned around and walked out.

The princess asked him to make sure to take Ernest back to the palace. If Alton went back himself, he would be so dead.

However, they would go back much later than planned. Alton was afraid the princess would also blame them.

After Alton walked out, Ernest looked over at Florence, reached out, and picked up her favorite dish for her.

“Go on. I’ll accompany you.”

Florence looked at Ernest in a daze, slightly blushing. She felt a bit embarrassed.

Just now, she felt quite upset so she uttered the two words. Immediately, he refused Alton decisively and stayed for lunch.

She realized how much he treasured her, so she couldn’t be upset any longer.

Florence mumbled, “Go ahead with your business. Don’t make them wait.”

If the princess was pissed by it, Florence didn’t want Ernest to be impacted.

After all, they were in a strange country. Ernest couldn’t only rely on himself without his force. If he had offended the princess, he would have to fight back alone.

Seeing that Florence returned to considerate again, Ernest smiled helplessly.

He sat motionlessly next to her and picked up another dish for her.
