My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins novel Chapter 900

“What? How do you make it bloom earlier?”

Florence picked up his words with full alert, and her hot gaze shot towards Gideon who was standing outside the room.

“It’s recorded in here. I happen to have read it.”

Gideon pointed at the book in his hand but he didn’t go into the room immediately. Instead, he looked at Theodore questioningly.

He was very aware that Theodore wanted him out of this place as soon as possible. He wouldn’t want Gideon to even see more than he already did in this place.

Gloominess was written over Theodore's face, but in the end, he still nodded to allow Gideon to go into the room.

Since this matter concerned Ernest’s life, he could only endure and put up with it for a little longer.

Only then did Gideon walk into the room while carrying the Book of Herbs.

Faced with Florence’s scorching gaze, Gideon leveled the pages of the book and pointed at it, “It’s recorded here. Look, the Yelo on average needs three to five years to grow, and it takes a full ten years for it to bear a fruit.”

As he spoke, he glanced at the plants growing near the fountain and shook his head, “These stalks are just budding. If you want to see it bloom, you will need to wait for at least two more years.”

It would take longer than that for it to bear fruits.

Upon hearing that, Florence’s face turned pale. It felt like the Yelo needed to go through a Big Bang to see it bloom, not to mention getting its fruit.

Ernest didn’t have that much time to wait around.

She hastily asked, “You said that the timing can be moved forward. How can that happen?”

“Here.”

Gideon pointed to the lower part of that page and continued, “According to what’s written here, those who need this flower will develop a kind of hormone due to the law of attraction in between the person and the flower. If that person bathed himself in this hot spring of the fountain for three days, the Yelo can blossom and bear a fruit in no time.”

“Are you serious?”

Florence had her breath taken away when she heard that. This was the first time she heard something like this. She was amazed that such mechanisms existed in this world.

She looked in the direction of the book and sure enough, she saw what was described by Gideon written on it in the exact manner.

The other part of the page introduced the Yelo in great detail. It even listed the diseases it could cure and also the prescriptive methods one had to use.

Even someone who was not in the medical field like her could understand what she read.

Theodore smiled with satisfaction, “It’s just great. If it only needed three days for the Yelo to blossom, then your disease can be cured, Ernest.”

After that, Florence just needed to give birth to a baby, and Ernest would be set for life.

Ernest pursed his lips and asked Gideon, “Can I take a look at this book?”

“Well…” Gideon hesitated for a moment and said with much difficulty, “Of course, you can read it, but this book is special. Only I can access it, and if you want to read it, you can only see so much.”

As he said that, Gideon politely placed that book on Ernest’s hands.

What Gideon said was true enough. Only two pages were revealed from this book to Ernest, and when he flipped to the other pages, the content only showed typical geography knowledge.

This security setting was really well designed.

Even if someone were to steal this book, this book would be useless to him because outsiders wouldn’t be able to read its real content.

As for how Gideon was able to access this book, it was a secret he held close to him. He wouldn’t just reveal his tricks.

Ernest examined the two pages available to him carefully and memorized the introduction about the Yelo in his mind. Then, he flipped to another page casually before returning the book to Gideon.

He demanded, “Reveal this page.”

“Alright.”

Gideon hastily moved his finger towards the book and touched the page. Upon his touch, the contents of that page immediately changed.

Another precious medicinal herb was being recorded on this page. Everything about it, including its original growing location, was recorded there.

At the same time, the page which recorded everything about the Yelo turned back to the usual geography content. No matter how Ernest flipped the page or touched it, the pages remained unchanged.

It was really a high-end way of using microchip to record something in a book.

That meant that the contents in it must be authentic too.

“There was a surprise. We found the Yelo in there too!”

“What? Really?”

Phoebe was so shocked that her eyes were bulging. This was way beyond her expectation!

Stanford looked excitedly at Florence to.

Florence said with confidence, “It’s true. There are a lot growing in there, just around a fountain with a hot spring in it.”

They all had researched about the Yelo, so they naturally knew that this type of plants always grew near fountain or hot springs.

According to what Florence had said, they must have found the real deal.

“This is awesome!”

Phoebe was so elated that she was jumping up and down, and she reached out to hug Stanford tightly in a bear hug.

Stanford wanted to ask Florence about certain things, but before he could start, he was spooked by the sudden hug.

His body stiffened as he felt the sudden tenderness of the woman hugging him. He felt his ears began to burn.

Phoebe was oblivious to him being so awkward as she rubbed her head excitedly against his chest. She was mumbling something excitedly too.

“Great. With the Yelo, Mr. Hawkins’ life can be saved. Flory can finally live happily ever after. This is great news. This is great news.”

Back then, she had some responsibility about that Benjamin incident. Due to circumstances, Ernest’s life was put into danger, which made her feel regretful and uneasy.

Now that Ernest could be cured and saved, she could finally forgive herself and pull herself out of those emotions.

At the same time, she was happy for Florence. Florence was her beloved best friend, and she could attain happiness in her life after all the hardships.

While he felt a small head burrowing into his chest, Stanford felt his body getting more and more stiff. A certain part of him felt like it was on fire, and that heat was spreading all over his body through his skin.

His breathing gradually became ragged too.

He was in a fluster. There were others watching them.
