My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins novel Chapter 952

"He is nobody's man. He seems to be idle, but in reality, his aim should be the whole Turner family."

"Oh my God, Keenan is actually so ambitious?"

Finley was dumbfounded and in total disbelief.

In his eyes, Keenan was really just a player with nothing better to do. He had been dashing around and doing nothing all his life.

He hadn't had any rivalries or retaliation in all those years either, and he had kept his position all because his family was strong.

"It surprises me too, but if that's the case, it makes sense."

Kevin's eyes darkened as he analyzed, "This is presumably Keenan's tactic. He must have done something, or made some kind of deal with the Master for the time being to make the Master not going after him."

After a pause, Kevin looked at Ernest with uncertainty and asked.

"Mr. Hawkins, I assume that Master hasn't discovered Keenan's ambition by now, right?"

Theodore had been hoodwinked by Keenan. Perhaps he spared him after being tricked by Keenan's words or ploys.

Ernest nodded noncommittally.

Kevin felt a little scared by his confirmation. So Keenan was the viper that lurked in the shadows and was ready to come out and bite anyone at any moment.

Luckily, Ernest had been aware of this and had taken precautions against him and used him at the family meeting.

Kevin went on to ask.

"Mr. Hawkins, what was Keenan's intention in supporting us at the meeting?"

Ernest said, "To watch in the dark while we fight, then reap the benefits."

"Crap!" Finley stood up. He said grumpily, "Could it be that he wants us to fight Master first and then take advantage of it while we are both exhausted and damaged?"

"That's too underhanded." Kevin felt disgusted.

Ernest pursed his lips and said in a deep voice. "In that case, you all must not be impulsive in the future. Be careful in what you do."

With a poisonous snake lurking in the shadows, the situation was even more uncertain and dangerous, and they had to be more careful.

Kevin said respectfully, "I got it."

Finley also agreed, "Okay."

After discussing the matter, they ended the meal, and Kevin and Finley left separately.

Ernest went back to Florence's room.

Thinking about what he had said to flirt with her earlier, Ernest felt like his desire grew thicker as he approached the room.

There had been so many unforeseen events in the past few days, and Florence were on tenterhooks all day, so they hadn't been in the mood.

It was a good time for them to make love after so many days.

Ernest walked faster.

With a click, he stepped into the room and locked the door again.

He said in a low and flirtatious tone.

"Are you done washing up? I'm back ..."

Before he could finish the words, Ernest's voice trailed off in his throat.

He was very surprised to see that Florence was nestled under the covers and lay on her side with her phone in her hand. But it must have been so long ago that her phone was blacked out.

And she was sleeping heavily with her thick lashes spread out.

Ernest was rather surprised. Hadn't she slept during the day? How could she have fallen asleep again just after dinner?

Florence hadn't been so sleepy before.

Maybe she hadn't slept much in the past few days, and now that the burden had been completely lifted from her mind after the video call with Stanford to make sure he was safe.

So she wanted to sleep through the night all at once.

Ernest had been slightly surprised and disturbed, and his heart dropped at the thought of this possibility. He walked gingerly to the bedside and carefully took the phone out of Florence's hand and put it aside.
