My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins novel Chapter 724

Soon the voices came in the hall, which was low and magnetic.

"The second condition is simple. To get a fresh cactus that's half a man tall. Flory likes it."

Florence was puzzled. When did she start to like cactus?

"Cactus?" spoke Hector in a high voice with surprise.

What bizarre request was that?

Didn't Ernest know that Raflad was surrounded by endless snow-capped mountains? The country's temperature was generally low, and the water resource was abundant. There was no desert at all.

And of course there were no plants like cacti that grew in the desert.

Where was he going to get one?

Ernest was cool but impatient.

"Go and get it," said Ernest coldly and drove Hector to get a cactus.

Hector looked embarrassed and gloomy.

Hesitating for a moment, he said, "Bro, there is no cactus in the country. I have to go find it in other places. But you know that it's not easy to enter Raflad, so it's difficult to go out."

"So?" Ernest interrupted Hector with a note of irony in his voice.

Hector stopped talking and got nervous.

But in a second, his tone changed, "But even so, it won't stop me from bringing the cactus back! Since Flory likes it, I will take that to her."

Florence and Bonnie who were eavesdropping were speechless.

So were the four bodyguards.

They seemed to have found something unbelievable. The noble Duke Hector seemed to have lost his dignity.

How could he change his mind so easily?

Turning to Bonnie, Florence asked in a low voice, "How far is the desert from here?"

Bonnie shook her head. "I don't know. I've never been outside."

A bodyguard answered, "As far as I know, the nearest desert is more than 12,000 miles away. And we can't go out by plane and it's difficult to travel by snowy mountain roads. A trip back and forth, if it goes well, will take at least a month."

More than a month?

That meant Hector wouldn't be around her for at least a month!

And as for Ernest's intelligence, he would get the medicine in a few days. So it meant that they wouldn't see Hector again before they left Raflad.

Florence was so happy that she wanted to laugh. It was the best news she had heard in days.

And she started to like the prickly cacti.

Bonnie looked at Florence who was so happy and said, "Flory, do you like cactus this much? But the country might not grow cactus as the climate isn't good for it."

Wouldn't Florence be sad if the cactus died when it was brought back?

Florence didn't care. She was just glad she didn't have to see Hector anymore.

With a smile on her face, she casually replied, "Yes, I like it very much."

As she spoke, she looked expectantly inside, hoping that the conversation would be over, and Hector could hurry away.

She couldn't resist rushing over to give Ernest a kiss.

Her man was really smart. He gave Hector a rough time and avenged her. What was more, he sent him away without efforts.

However, at this moment, a discordant sound rang up.

"I have always admired plants that can survive in the arid desert. Hector, when you bring cacti back, you must let me have a look."
