My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins

Ernest rubbed her hair. Suddenly, his handsome face approached her.

He spoke while exhaling hot air into her ear, “I like it when you are jealous.”

Then she heard his delightful laughter.

It was like an electric current, which shocked her heart directly.

Florence’s heart skipped a beat and hammered. She couldn’t help blushing.

Feeling annoyed and shy, she pushed him away, “I’m not talking to you about this. Don’t try to distract my attention!”

She wondered if he was seducing her with his beauty so she could forget this matter.

She wouldn’t let him succeed.

Ernest was forced to take a step back. Instead of becoming angry, he looked at Florence tenderly.

He explained patiently, “Magnolia Liliiflora is also an important treasure in Raflad. If we want to get it, we must use some tricks. I’m an outsider, and I can’t get in touch with the upper-class level. Andrew recommended me to the palace and I’m applying for the position of the diplomat. However, some accident happened during the process.”

“What kind of accident?” Florence asked immediately.

Upon hearing her question, Ernest creased his brows. His face became darkened.

After several seconds, he squeezed a few words between his teeth in a solemn tone, “The princess has a crush on me.”

Florence’s mouth corners twitched.

Sure enough, the man’s handsome face attracted the princess.

She felt quite uneasy. Right now, Ernest needed to work in the palace and apply for the diplomat position. The princess was a superior icon in the palace. Probably he would be threatened. Before achieving his goal, he wouldn’t offend the princess easily.

Besides, it seemed that the princess was quite short-tempered. Florence wondered if she would force Ernest to sleep with her.
