My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins novel Chapter 74

“I won’t marry him.”

Florence quickly explained, her voice was firm and resolute.

Even though she may have some special feelings about Ernest, she never thought of making the fake engagement into a real one. And now Ernest still had someone he liked, she would not presume to interfere in their relationship.

“Miss Marlon, I don’t know what to say about your affairs and I wouldn’t interfere with it. The agreement between Ernest and me is only last for a month. When the time comes, I will dismiss the marriage with him.”

After a pause, Florence added, “Or, if he wants to terminate the agreement earlier, I will also cooperate.”

Gemma seemed relieved, “Flory, Ernest have been feeling sorry to me because of this matter, so he’ll constantly avoid discussing this matter with me. Today, I’ve accidentally told you so much, I hope you won’t tell Ernest about this.”

“Okay.” Florence nodded.

“Flory, you’re really a nice person. From now on, you’re my friend!”

Florence bit her lips and said nothing. Her relationship with Ernest was just an agreement, but she still felt that it wouldn’t be easy to make friends with Gemma.

When the banquet was over, Gemma sent Florence and others out of the hall.

It was already late at night, and the weather was getting cold again, the wind was blowing chilly.

Ernest took off his suit and naturally wanted to put it on Florence’s shoulders.

Florence noticed his actions. She felt her heart tighten a little, and Gemma was still here. This action of his seemed way too ambiguous.

As she thought of this, she immediately dodged a little.

Ernest’s hand holding the suit froze in mid-air.

“I’m not cold.”

Florence looked at Gemma awkwardly and whispered to Ernest, “Don’t let her misunderstand.”

“Misunderstand what?”

Ernest didn’t understand what she meant. His eyes deepen as he realized Florence had been avoiding him and keeping a distance from him deliberately throughout the banquet tonight.

“Miss Marlon, thanks for your hospitality, see you next time.”

Florence smile at Gemma and waved her hand. She didn’t even took a glance at Ernest and got into the car.

Ernest looked unpleasant. He pursed his thin lips with a cold expression and got into the car too.

He didn’t even say goodbye to Gemma.

Gemma looked at his cold back as he left. A sinister look flashed across her eyes. He was treating her as if she was invisible whenever Florence was by his side.

Ernest got into the car, his tall body sat just beside Florence.

Florence immediately sat further away from him.

She looked out of the window, intentionally wanted to alienate him.

A feeling of anger rose in the heart of Ernest, but he had nowhere to vent his frustration. He was depressed that he couldn’t what was wrong with this lady.

He spoke in a deep voice to Timothy, who was in the driver’s seat, “Drive.”

Timothy hesitated for a while. He took a glance at Harold and Anthony, who was still chatting at the door. Then, he started the car and drove away.

“Eh, why did Ernest leave?” We’re still here.”

Harold was the first one to react. He looked at the car that was driving away in dismay.

Since Ernest had his fiancée, he never treated them nicely. He would just leave them alone and left.

Anthony looked at Harold’s dismay face, but he remained calm and stood there without saying anything.

Gemma hid her feelings with a smile and said, “You have your own cars, why must you always sit in the same car with Ernest? Come, I’ll let the driver to you guys back.”

“Luckily Gemma still has a conscience.” Harold provoked. He secretly despised Ernest, the womanizer a thousand times in his heart.
