My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins novel Chapter 921

Florence was very worried. She looked down but she was too far away. She couldn’t see what was going on in Stanford’s room.

But she couldn’t go out.

She quickly looked out and observed the surroundings. She made a swift decision and planned to climb out of the window.

She was on the fifth floor, and it was rather high. As she climbed out a bit and looked down, her legs felt like jelly.

She took a deep breath and told herself that nothing would happen if she was careful enough.

Right now she didn’t know what was happening, but she wasn’t going to just stay in the room and wait.

She needed to get out.

Florence mustered her courage and stepped on the protruding part outside the window and carefully climbed down.

After a while, she was covered in sweat and managed to reach the second floor.

She climbed through the broken window carefully and went inside.

When she got in, she stepped on a pile of debris, assumably from smashed furniture and stuff.

Stanford’s room was very messy. It looked like some kind of catastrophe just happened in here.

There was even some blood on the floor and the walls.

Florence took a deep breath. The situation seemed to be worse than she thought.

What happened to her brother?

Where was everyone else?

Florence didn’t know. She quickly ran out of the room and tried to follow the traces that were left behind from the fight.

After walking for a while, she saw two bodyguards in the corridor.

Florence quickly yelled, “Hey, what happened here? Did you guys see my brother…”

Before she could finish her sentence, she was interrupted by the bodyguard.

“Why is she out here? Grab her!”

The two bodyguards trotted towards Florence with fierce looks on their faces. They weren’t as respectful and nice as usual.

Florence was taken aback. The alarm went off in her head.

This wasn’t normal.

They wanted to catch her!

She didn’t have the time to ask about what was going on. Her first reaction was to turn around and run.

The bodyguards quickly ran after her and they were yelling.

“Catch her, don’t let her get away! Otherwise, we’ll be in serious trouble!”

Florence felt numbness in her scalp and ran faster.

She rushed down the stairs from the second floor, as fast as lightning. Soon, she arrived in the garden.

Her phone should have a signal here.

She only needed a bit of time so that she could call Ernest.

She was running out of breath, but the bodyguards were after her in hot pursuit. They were getting closer.

Florence’s heart was beating fast, and she was terrified. She only knew that it would be bad if they got her.

She didn’t dare to stop and just continued running. When she turned around the corner, she saw someone familiar yonder.

It was Stanford!

She was elated and dashed towards him. But then, she noticed that there were a bunch of bodyguards running behind Stanford as well.

They seemed to be the Turner family’s bodyguards.

They were holding weapons and was chasing Stanford ferociously.

This sent a shiver down Florence’s spine. Her assumptions were correct. It didn’t seem real, but it was the truth.

The people from the Turner family wanted to kill Stanford!

That was why they kidnapped and isolated her.

Florence was going crazy, and she was breaking out in cold sweat. What was going on?

Everything was still fine yesterday. Theodore was checking the betrothal gifts and was happy about the marriage, wishing to have a better relationship with the Fraser family.

Because of him, she got away from the bodyguards.

She nodded and said, “Thank you.”

After that, she wanted to run off to look for Stanford.

He quickly stopped her and said worriedly.

“Ms. Fraser, you can’t go there.”

Florence could barely see Stanford from where she was.

He was running fast, and a bunch of people were chasing him. Soon, she wouldn’t be able to see him and probably couldn’t run after him.

Kevin quickly explained.

“You really can’t go. Our family master has instructed the men to kill him. He should be able to run away based on his ability. If you go there, he will have to take care of you and they might take advantage of that. He might then lose the fight.”

Upon hearing that, Florence stood stiffly on the same spot and didn’t move.

Her face turned pale, and she was trembling uncontrollably. She couldn't believe her ears.

Why did Theodore want to kill Stanford?

This didn't make sense at all.

Elder Kevin looked at Florence with a complicated look on his face. He was hesitating and finally, he said.

“Ms. Fraser, you have to stay calm after hearing me out.”

“Say it.”

Florence urged him worriedly. She glanced at Stanford anxiously and saw a new group of people coming at him from another direction.

They surrounded Stanford and he was standing in the middle of the crowd.

He didn’t have anywhere to escape.

Florence broke out in cold sweat. She really wanted to go help Stanford but because of what Kevin said, she thought that she shouldn’t go.

Someone was also after her. If she went over to him, she would just be a burden and trouble Stanford even more. She wouldn’t be able to rescue him and might even put him in danger.

Kevin knew that Florence was worried. He quickly gave her the explanation without any delay.
