My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins novel Chapter 83

Florence glanced at her colleague in shock and disbelief.

How did they know about her relationship with Ernest?

“When you haven’t come to the company, there has never been a woman by Mr. Hawkins’ side. Nevertheless, you suddenly became a member of the company. Moreover, you have lunch with Mr. Hawkins and took the same car to work and from work with him every day.”

The woman then added confidently, “You’re a couple of lovers, right?”

Florence felt her mind exploding at the moment as if a big event had happened.

She thought her interactions with Ernest were so covert, but she hadn’t expected that all staff of the company had known about it.

She was flustered with a messy mind, “In fact, my relationship with Mr. Hawkins is not like what you guys think. We’re just… just…”

Florence stammered and was lost for words to form a reasonable excuse.

The company had kept her personal information and obviously, she from that family background was by no means Ernest’s relative.

“I understand.” Her colleague laughed understandingly and continued, “I know that you’re in a relationship with Mr. Hawkins and both of you wanted to keep it a secret. So we didn’t spread any words about it.”

Florence was choked and felt very helpless, “That’s really not the case.”

“Oh yeah, I see. Florence, I handed a proposal to Mr. Hawkins which needs his approval. If you’re convenient, please put in some good words about me in front of the CEO.” Her colleague specially lowered her voice and whispered in Florence’s ear.

Apparently, the reason why she asked Florence to do so was that she firmly believed that Florence was Ernest’s girlfriend.

Florence was flustered and was in a messy mind. Since she and Ernest would cancel their engagement soon, the misunderstandings from the staffs of the company were very disadvantageous to their relationship.

They couldn’t delay the cancellation anymore.

She made a decision after pondering for a while and then headed towards the president’s office hurriedly.

When Timothy was about to enter the president’s office with a pile of documents at hands, he saw Florence striding towards the office and retrieved his hand that was about to knock the door.

He turned around and gazed at Florence with a smile, asking, “Miss Fraser, are you coming for Mr. Hawkins?”

“Yeah. Is he free now?”

Florence kept walking when answering the question and walked to the door of the office soon.

Timothy nodded, “He’s free. You can come in directly.”

After finishing the words, Timothy left which the pile of documents that were waiting to be handled, intending to come to find Ernest later.

Florence then knocked at the door. When she entered the office, she saw Ernest sitting behind the office desk as usual and flipping through the documents with his fair and slender fingers.

Ernest seemed to be a bit surprised to see her.

An inexplicable touch of smile flashed across his eyes as he said in a low voice, “Oh, take a seat.”

He then connected the interior call and ordered the secretary to send milk and dessert here.

“No need. I have something to talk to you.” Florence refused it immediately. Every time when she came to his office, he would offered her desserts, and she guessed this might be one of the reasons why they would misunderstand their relationship.

She was afraid now she was regarded as Ernest’s girlfriend or something else in the eyes of her colleagues.

Ernest hung out the interior call and said composedly, “You can spill the beans when having them.”

It seemed that she couldn’t decline such a treatment now.
