My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins novel Chapter 89

They were in love but couldn’t get together easily because of the circumstances.

But why did Ernest not stay by her side and comfort her in this situation, and hide behind the desk in the corner of the room?

Was it because… to avoid misunderstanding?

Florence looked at the disc in her hand. Did she interrupt their private space?

“Erm… you guys can continue. I’ll take my leave.”

She put the disc on the table and turned around to leave.

Looking at her back with his lips slightly curled up, Ernest talked with a low raspy voice.

“I’ll go down soon. Wait for me.”

“… Okay.”

Florence replied without looking back. She left the room hastily and closed the door behind her.

Gemma was staring at Ernest the whole time and noticed the slight curl at the corner of his lips. She was astonished at the loving tone in his voice.

This was the first time she saw him being so patient with a woman.

With a hint of jealousy, Gemma clenched her fists and suppressed her true emotion.

Pursing her lips, she put on an envious smile.

“I’m envious of Florence, with you by her side, she will have kids and a good life ahead of her.”

Ernest finally pulled his gaze back from the door and noticed Gemma’s pale face. His gaze dimmed with guilt.

She wouldn’t have lost her fertility in that accident if it wasn’t because of him.

He said in a deep voice, “I’ll take you to Collin. His skill is legendary; maybe he can help you to be able to be a mother again.”

He would try his hardest to complete this mission since this was what he owed her.

Gemma smiled indifferently. Her forced smile looked even more saddening on her pale face.

“I also heard Collin is a legend, so I come to you for help since his whereabouts is a mystery. But it doesn’t matter whether we can find him or he can cure me. Because I’ve accepted the reality.”

The more casual Gemma was with this matter, the more she made him feel guilty.

With his lips pursed, Ernest fell silent with a mixed feeling.

After leaving the study room, Florence had been thinking about her marriage with Ernest.

She would have to forsake her role as his fiancée now that Gemma came back. She didn’t want to be the third wheel and continue to be in an intimate relationship with Ernest as his fiancée.

Moreover, Georgia already had a plan to fix a wedding date for their marriage. If they dragged this on, they might disappoint her even more in the end.

She needed to talk to Ernest about calling off the marriage. As soon as possible.

After waiting at the lobby for a while, Ernest and Gemma were finally done with their meeting and came downstairs.

Looking at the do coming down the stairs side by side, Florence felt they were really made for each other.

However, she felt uncomfortable at the same time. Perhaps it was because of her awkward identity at the moment.

“Mrs. Hawkins, I’ll be taking my leave. Do take care of yourself. I’ll visit you soon.”

Gemma bid farewell to Georgia courteously and walked up to Florence.

Her expression was cordial, “Flory, let’s hangout together sometimes.”

“Sure.”
