My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins novel Chapter 72

Ernest looked at Harold emotionlessly, “I knew.”

Harold suddenly realized, “Of course you knew. She must have told you first when she came back.”

Anthony looked at Harold in a disgusted look, “So, what are you doing here?”

“Oh, you are here.”

As if Harold just realized Anthony’s attendance, he answered in a casual tone, “I’m going to the gathering with Ernest. Well, since you are here, we don’t mind bringing you with us.”

Anthony was the Vice President of the company. It is normal for him to leave with Ernest. Who needed Harold to be their guide?

Anthony looked away in despise. He didn’t want to talk too much to Harold.

Florence looked at the three of them, and she saw Ernest was ready to go.

She said, “Anthony, we should do the makeover another day. I should leave now.”

When Florence was about to leave the office, Ernest said in a domineering tone, “You are going with me.”

“Florence is going too?”

Harold got even more surprised. He stared at Ernest with a strange look.

He then approached Ernest and whispered, “Your relationship with Gemma… Is it good for Florence to attend the gathering?”

“Nothing is wrong.”

Ernest stared at Harold emotionlessly. His sight was so cold as if he was judging Harold for his stupid question.

Harold didn’t know what to say. He was being thoughtful, but he ended up blamed for asking too many questions.

Although Florence didn’t hear what Harold said to Ernest, she knew something was off when Harold, who was usually playful and liked her a lot, suddenly didn’t want her to attend the gathering.

And the relationship between Ernest and Gemma was the reason.

Ernest approached Florence and sized her up. Then, his sight stopped in the direction of her thigh.

Florence looked pretty but…

“Redo her style. Then only we leave.”

Anthony felt speechless. He wanted to resign so much at this moment.

Initially, Anthony was only supposed to build Florence’s image, but now he got appointed as her stylist and he needed to style her for events.

Anthony felt like crying. He carefully picked a slightly conservative gown for Florence this time.

A white gown embroidered with diamonds. Simple and grand. A sheer white shawl covered Florence’s shoulder. She looked fresh and stunning. Most importantly, every inch of her skin was well-covered.

Ernest was finally satisfied with her look. He looked at Florence and said, “You look great in a gown.”

Florence doubted his comment. She didn’t think his comment was genuine.

Anthony didn’t want to give further comments either.

The gathering was held in Gemma‘s house. It was located at another huge manor beside the Hawkins family’s Manor.

The decorations and layout of the manor looked similar to the Hawkins family’s Manor. The castle and buildings were all in the same style as the Hawkins family’s Manor.

According to rumours, the two families built their manor together because of their close relationship.

The two families were friends for more than a few generations.

Following the red carpet, Florence walked into the manor from its main entrance together with Ernest, Harold, and Anthony.

The moment they stepped into the door, a person in red ran into Ernest’s arm in open arms.

“Ernest, we finally meet again.”

Florence was standing beside Ernest. She saw a woman hugging Ernest from a close distance.

She was surprised. This was her first time seeing Ernest being so close to a woman. Normally, there wouldn’t be any woman near him.

What surprised her more was that Ernest didn’t push the woman away. He let her hug him.
