My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins novel Chapter 832

When Florence saw Kieran leave, she walked towards Phoebe hurriedly and looked at her worriedly.

“Phoebe, are you alright? Did he bully you?”

“I’m fine. Your brother just came in time.”

Phoebe shook her head as she looked at Stanford with her eyes flashing.

The words that were said by him just now kept coming across her mind.

Stanford noticed that Phoebe was gazing at him. He showed an uneasy expression on his handsome face.

He said in a deep voice.

“Don’t misunderstand. I said those words to infuriate Kieran just now.”

Phoebe was dumbfounded for a while.

Stanford continued to explain, “I have made some research on dealing with others. Kieran isn’t going to hand out Cocos. We aren’t clear with his background and it seems that he won’t be easily exposed. So, the fastest way is to provoke him, forcing him to take action.”

“When he assigns a large number of people to take action, he will be easily exposed at that moment.”

So, he was just pretending to like and pursue her. Nevertheless, he just wanted to make a reasonable show of stealing Kieran’s loved one.

This was to infuriate Kieran so that he would take action towards Ernest and Stanford by all means.

“Oh, I get it…”

Phoebe murmured softly while blinking her eyes. However, her heart was somehow overwhelmed with emptiness.

Stanford gently held Phoebe’s hand and asked doubtfully.

“Phoebe, what did you say?”

Phoebe regained her sense and shook her head hurriedly, “Nothing. I didn’t say anything.”

“Don’t be angry. I didn’t know that they arranged in this way. It seems my brother was targeting Kieran purposely in the entire party.”

It made sense after linking up all the previous doubts from her explanation.

In fact, Stanford wanted to be her companion just now. Besides, he stopped the dance just to let her come and receive the gift in such a high-profile way. Furthermore, he told Kieran that he loved her just now.

The purpose behind them was to infuriate Kieran so that he would take action.

However, her heart was already pounding rapidly just because of his few fake words. Moreover, she even thought too much and anticipated that this was the reality.

It was really silly and shameful.

Phoebe shook her head in a panic and asked while pretending to be calm.

“Kieran is just a playboy. He won’t like me as he is just interested and making fun of me. Although he is angry today, still he will be stressed in facing Mr. Hawkins.”

“How do you guys make sure that he will definitely take action?”

People who were a bit more cautious would not act impetuously after considering the benefits and losses.

Stanford looked at Phoebe and explained patiently.

“For a man, stealing his woman is not a matter of whether he likes her. But, it’s a matter of a man must uphold his dignity or rather being humiliated.”

Kieran was the one who could not withstand this kind of humiliation.

So, he would definitely come to win Phoebe’s heart by all means.

Phoebe looked at Stanford in a daze as this was the first time that she had heard such a remark and it was said by him.

Stealing his woman did not mean that he liked her, but rather the concern was just to uphold his dignity so that he was not humiliated?

Did all the men have the same perspective like this?

Her eyes flashed as she blurted involuntarily, “Then do you think like that too?”

Phoebe immediately regretted it after saying that. She wanted to bite off her tongue.

She wondered why should she ask him this kind of question as it was really awkward.

She heard Stanford’s clear voice when she was about to tell him to forget about it as she just asked blindly.

‘I won’t encounter this kind of thing?!’

‘Doesn’t that mean I haven’t fallen in love with anybody yet and no woman is worth having me to do that?’

So, he stated clearly that he didn’t like Phoebe once again and told her not to think too much.

“Sick of it.”

Collin massaged his temples as he was deeply worried about the descendant of the Fraser family.

Stanford had been single for more than twenty years not because that he was too picky but mainly due to his low emotional intelligence.

…

“I have plenty of money. Why are you kicking me out?”

Kieran was standing at the reception desk with a sullen face in the lobby of the superior five-star hotel.

He was really on the verge of going crazy as he had never been treated in such a rude manner before.

When he woke up early in the morning, a hotel attendant came to inform him that he should move out and could no longer stay in this room.

When he asked for the reason, the hotel attendant claimed that it was the hotel policy as all the rooms would be under maintenance and nobody could stay here anymore.

However, he saw that the receptionists in the lobby were still serving the guests to check in as usual when he went to the lobby.

In fact, there was nothing like hotel maintenance so that nobody could stay anymore.

This was obviously an excuse to kick him out purposely.

He had stayed in different hotels for so many years, yet he had encountered such an unpleasant experience for the first time and this was so-called the superior five-star hotel.

The receptionist smiled and said politely.

“Sir, you really can’t stay in your room anymore as it’s under maintenance. Sorry for the inconvenience.”

“Hey, you guys said that all the rooms will be under maintenance so nobody can stay here anymore. But why so many guests checked in just now and you guys don’t tell them their rooms are under maintenance?”
