My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins novel Chapter 822

Roan said aloud, “Everybody can choose their career from a wide range of choices. But you have chosen to be a doctor. This proves that you’re helpful and kind deep in your heart.”

“I admire this kind of person like you the most in my life. You’re indeed excellent.”

He nodded his head while saying that as he was really satisfied.

His look was like being so happy for picking the right person that he had loved so much. This made Collin feel creepy somehow.

He glanced away and stopped talking with his mouth shut.

He sensed that Mr. Jenkins did not seem to be quite normal with his instincts. He would be in trouble if he kept dealing with him.

Phoebe was weird as she looked at her father. In the past, he would not be so interested in other people’s occupations, nor did he have such a good remark on doctors. Moreover, he even criticized medical accidents before.

What was wrong with him today? Had he taken the wrong medicine?

“Phoebe.”

Roan called her amiably while she was pondering. He even reached out to grab Phoebe’s hand.

That large palm brought a sense of warmth to Phoebe, but it made her tense up all of a sudden.

It was like she had seen a ghost as she stared at Roan carefully.

What was wrong with him today?

Roan smiled amiably while his eyes darted between Phoebe and Collin. He asked politely.

“Phoebe, tell daddy honestly. What is your relationship with them?”

What relationship did he mean?

Phoebe’s heartbeat skipped at the moment as she was very nervous.

She looked at Stanford involuntarily as she was slightly worried.

Obviously, Roan was not just asking for the surface question but to a deeper extent about Phoebe’s relationship. Did he know about those things that had happened between Stanford and her?

However, she was just making a fool of herself as she had already completely broken up with Stanford. In this case, there was no other deeper relationship between them.

Perhaps, her father did not know the outcome and misunderstood her relationship with Stanford.

Phoebe’s heart was pounding restlessly while she clarified hurriedly.

“Well, we’re friends of course. They’re all my friends.”

“Just friends?”

Roan’s voice was clearly suspicious and he even hinted at her for telling the truth.

Phoebe’s heart was palpitating even rapidly.

Her father must know something, right? He definitely knew something.

However, she wondered why did he want to question her on the spot other than just to embarrass her.

Phoebe twisted and grabbed Roan’s hand. She looked at him and pleaded softly.

“Daddy, we’re just ordinary friends. Can you stop asking anymore? Trust me.”

Roan could not help but sigh while seeing Phoebe’s pleading look.

It had come to this extent as Phoebe had already brought him back home. Yet, Phoebe was still not going to say anything?

How much longer did she want to procrastinate?

Roan was simply worried about her marriage.

Eventually, Roan could not decline her daughter’s request. So, he nodded and looked at Collin.

He smiled and said, “Collin, you’re Phoebe’s companion tonight, aren’t you?”

Everybody was very surprised.

Collin was dumbfounded as he wondered what was Mr. Jenkins thinking. How did he seem to match Phoebe and even be her companion?

Meanwhile, he also felt a sense of danger while wondering in his mind.

Collin tensed up and said hurriedly.

“Mr. Jenkins, I’m not Phoebe’s companion. The person who is going to be her companion is Mr. Fraser.”

“Mr. Fraser?”

Roan’s gaze fell on Stanford as he was quite astounded.
