My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins

Phoebe replied, “Maybe he didn’t fall head over heels at first. You need to think at what point of time his attitude changed”

The first time they met, Ernest was really acting all high and mighty, and she was able to bring back that moment with clarity. During the whole negotiation, he had only uttered a few words besides shoving a cheque at her. He didn’t even so much as glancing in her direction.

At that time, she felt that this man was really out of her league. She didn’t even dare to hold any personal desire for him.

Later on, he suddenly landed in her company and assumed the position of her president.

From that moment on, Ernest had tried various ways to approach her. His attitude towards her had taken a complete one hundred and eighty degree of changes.

Florence didn’t give that transformation much thought at that time, dismissing it as Ernest caring for her just like how a husband would do in a marital relationship. But now that she carefully thought about it, could it be that he had started to have feelings for her since then?

Was he actually going after her?

This possibility seemed all the more likely the more she thought about it. Florence just had a lingering doubt as to the actual reason he had fallen for her.

However, without the confession from him, Florence would never get to the bottom of this.

If her confession was successful this time, perhaps she would muster some courage and ask Ernest about it.

As for now…

Florence unpacked the huge box and found a huge stack of colour stripes. They looked magnificent.

With these, she would be able to decorate the villa and made it look even more spectacular than a wedding scene. The whole place would feel romantic.

At the time when Ernest proposed to her, he had transformed the whole villa into a dream world which captured the eyes of the beholder, and he even renovated the back garden into a style she would love. He had the vegetation designed into the words ‘Marry me’.

At that time, she didn’t understand the meaning of his efforts, but now that she was the one doing all the preparations, she understood that he must have really loved her.

They had missed each other that time, and now she wanted to make up for that loss. She was going to make up by preparing a romantic confession for him personally.

It was the same place all over again.

“Ding dong—“

When Florence and Phoebe were inflating the balloons to decorate the whole villa, the doorbell rang.
