My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins

“Flory.” Georgia walked towards her with a kind look. Florence did not expect seeing her there and she quickly stood up, speaking courteously, “Hello granny, I didn’t expect to see you here.” Georgia looked at her and still thought she was likable as usual. She said amiably, “Flory, granny has come here for you. You know, I’ve stayed at home these days and Ernest didn’t come back too. I’m feeling too bored, and I nearly fainted this morning.

The doctor advised me to keep a relaxed mind and spend time with people I want to be with, and the one I want to see is you.” Hearing that she nearly fainted, Florence held her arm with worry and asked with care, “Granny, are you alright now? Please be more careful at normal days.”

“I feel much better now when I see you. Flory, please come back with granny and have a meal with me,” Georgia said with a pitiful tone. She seemed to know Florence would reject and she added, “Granny only has this simple request, could you please accept it?”

Florence felt troubled and she glanced at Phoebe. Phoebe shrugged, indicating she could not do anything about it. After all, as an elder, her wish was really that simple and she also had illness. Florence felt helpless. Thinking that Ernest might not be at home, or else granny would not come looking for her, she finally pursed her lips and agreed. “Alright.”

“Flory, I knew you’re the best kid.” Georgia wore a bright smile and she forgot to take Florence with her as she left. Florence could only wave at Phoebe, saying she was going to be back later and followed Georgia into the car.

At the mansion, due to Georgia’s order, the lunch today was perfect. Florence held Georgia to the dining table. As she extended her hand and was ready to take the bowl to take some soup for her, Georgia said, “Flory, you can put that down first, Ernest’s not coming back yet.”

She slapped the table with rage and bawled, “Nonsense! Get Ernest back for me!” The butler was taken aback, he immediately turned and rushed out. “It’s okay, granny,” Florence chimed in. Georgia glanced at her with a suspicious look. Seeing her looking
