My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins

"So you don't have the right to interfere into my business. Please let go of me," continued Florence.

Florence tried to wrench herself free.

But the man held her tighter. He stared at her with doubts.

"You lied to me? You're not Andrew's daughter."

He knew very well that Andrew had only one wife and two daughters.

The woman, who had heard their conversation, probably knew what was going on, and she immediately pointed at Florence's nose and shouted, "It's a great sin to deceive Duke Hector. Florence, are you seeking death?"

Florence's mouth twitched. So, should she be beheaded because she deceived Duke Hector?

Thinking that the man was so unreasonable, Florence immediately explained, "I only said that this is my house. I didn't say that Andrew is my father. You misunderstood me."

"And Andrew told me to make myself at home. I didn't misstate."

Hearing so, the man smiled happily.

He pulled Florence to him and said, "Since this is your home, your marriage would be decided by the mistress of the house. I have proposed, and that lady agreed, so you may follow me."

Florence was shocked by his logic.

Marriage couldn't be too serious.

"I don't agree!"

Florence pushed the man away with a serious and firm face, "I don't love you. I will not marry you. Perish the thought!"

The man froze.

It was the first time in his life that he had been rejected. The woman refused to marry him.

Was she blind?

No, she was playing hard-to-get.

The man did not get mad but laugh, "It doesn't matter whether you agree or not. You have to spend the wedding night with me today."
