My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins

Florence took a deep breath and tried hard to suppress the turbulent emotions in her heart. She then turned her head to look out of the window and ignored Ernest.

Although their legs were so close to each other’s, since Gemma was sitting in the passage seat, she couldn’t notice it, right?

As a matter of fact, Gemma did have not noticed the abnormal contact of their legs, but she noticed that Ernest was staring at Florence softly and there was gentleness that caused her to be jealous in his eyes.

She had been dreaming of Ernest looking at her in such manner.

Nevertheless, Ernest had never given her such treatment. But Florence easily got what she had longed for from him.

Was it because she came back late?

But how could she accept this? She was Ernest’s childhood sweetheart and they grew up together. Moreover, in order to stay by his side, after being refused by Ernest, she hided all her feelings for her and simply stayed by his side as a friend.

She once thought that as Ernest was so cold and indifferent, there would not be the other woman by his side in the future.

And even if she was just his friend, she would be his only female friend…

The place that Ernest took Florence to was a remote town in City N. The town was still undeveloped and remained primitive.

As soon as they arrived, a chubby middle-aged man walked over and greeted them ingratiatingly.

"Mr. Hawkins, I am the mayor of our town, welcome! We’ve prepared some refreshments and snacks, please come with me and take a rest."

Florence looked at the man who addressed himself as the mayor of the town in surprise, and then turned her head to look at Ernest.

So Ernest came here with a purpose to develop this town?

Ernest curled his thin lips into a line. He didn’t reply and showed no intention to follow the mayor to have a rest.

Timothy took a step forward and said to the mayor, "Mr. Hawkins’ time is limited, please take us to see Collin directly."

"Okay." The mayor said with a smile, and led the way towards the other direction, "Mr. Hawkins, this way, please."
