My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins

In the company.

After Ernest finished his meeting, there was still an hour left for him to knock off.

It was just the right time for Florence to do the modeling.

Ernest went directly to the stylist after the meeting was dismissed. He also asked Timothy to check what Florence was doing. If she was not busy, he could take her to the dressing room directly.

Anthony had been waiting in the dressing room a long time ago. Seeing Ernest coming in, he raised the goblet in his hands to Ernest.

“Happy birthday, birthday man.”

“Thank you.”

Ernest’s mood was obviously quite good. He sat on a sofa casually.

Anthony raised his eyebrows and looked behind him. “Hasn’t Florence come yet?”

He was waiting here for doing the hair and makeup for Florence. As for Ernest, he was a man, so he didn’t need to do something so delicate. Besides, based on Ernest’s handsome face, something simple would be enough.

Ernest nodded. He picked up a goblet of wine and had a taste.

Anthony checked the door again. For the time being, nobody was seen over there.

With a smile, he teased, “Ernest, all through the years, this is the first time I’ve seen you holding a birthday party for yourself, and you’ve made it so grand. What’s your plan?”

“What do you think?”Ernest asked casually.

He took a sip of the wine, and a slight arc was shown at the corners of his mouth.

Anthony’s guess had been confirmed.

He couldn’t help but heave a sigh. “TSK. TSK. Sure enough, it’s for Florence. Although the engagement ceremony was grand as well, only the family and relatives of the Hawkins family attended. For your birthday banquet this time, you’ve invited all people in the upper-class of City N. I guess you’re planning to formally introduce Florence to all of them.”

Online and in the private, there were crazy rumors about his relationship with Florence. Even there was some news about preparing their wedding on the Hawkins family’s side. However, his relationship with Florence hadn’t be announced officially for even just once.

Ernest wanted to give Florence everything undisputed.

“Crick crack... Crick crack..”

Some footsteps were heard on the corridor outside.

Ernest’s hand holding the goblet paused. He looked in the direction of the door, his eyes filled with some expectation.
