My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins novel Chapter 134

Florence wanted to retort her, but when she looked at Cooper who was sitting opposite her, she felt it inappropriate to explain it at the moment.

She could only say, “Don’t deal in guesswork. I will talk with you after coming back.”

“Haha, looks like I’ve bother your date. All right, I will wait for you and we can talk about it when you come back. Enjoy your time” Charlotte hung up the phone with a smile.

Florence felt a bit confused and knitted her brows. She was simply having a meal together with Cooper and was not dating with him.

She must tell Charlotte about this after coming back.

The waiter had left. When Florence ended the call, she found that Cooper was looking at her eagerly.

She said with a smile, “It’s a call from my sister. By the way, what do you want to say just now?”

Cooper smiled and gently shook his head, “Nothing.”

“Well.” Florence nodded her head and saw that a waitress was coming over with a plate of dessert.

In Senna International Villa Community…

Timothy brought the dishes made by the specially employed chef to the villa at the dinner time as usual.

There were only Ernest and Charlotte at the table today.

Charlotte was very delighted as she could get alone with Ernest today and she had been having a smile on her face since the dinner time.

“Ernest, let me ladle the soup for you.”

Charlotte imitated what Florence had done in usual time and ladled a bowl of soup for him.

She gingerly put the bowl in front of Ernest and then gazed at him with anticipation, “Ernest, have a try and tell me does it taste good.”

When seeing the anticipation on her face, one would think that the soup was made by her.

Ernest had tried the soup before and it tasted good. However, when it was Charlotte who ladled the soup for him, he suddenly lost his appetite to drink it.

He then looked at the Chinese cuisines on the table.

When Florence was in the villa, he liked Chinese cuisines very much and he had never mind sharing the same plate of cuisine with her. But now…

Ernest even didn’t want to pick up his chopsticks.

He wrinkled his brows and then stood to his feet.

“Ernest, where are you going?” Charlotte was shocked when Ernest stood up and hastily asked him.

It was a rare opportunity for her to have dinner with Ernest alone, but why Ernest suddenly intended to leave?

Ernest’s tall figure exuded alienation. He was silent for a short while and then replied perfunctorily, “You eat them by yourself.”

He headed towards the upstairs after finishing the words.

“Ernest, what about you? You don’t want to eat?”

Charlotte was a bit flustered and hurriedly stood to her feet and grabbed Ernest’s arm.

Ernest suddenly stopped and exuded terrifying coldness.

He suddenly raised his hand and tossed off Charlotte’s hand.

An obvious touch of detest appeared on his handsome face, “Charlotte Fraser, don’t try to challenge me.”

Charlotte was immediately frozen and felt a gush of coldness rising from the soles of her feet to her head.

This man was very dangerous.

But he looked more powerful and charming when acting in this way and Charlotte became more and more addicted. She wanted to conquer him and possess him.

Although she had such a strong aspiration, she looked pale and pitiful as if she would cry at any time.

“I’m sorry, Ernest, I didn’t mean to do it… It’s just…Just that my sister asked me to take care of you and I should take care of you for the meal…”

Ernest narrowed his eyes. It was Florence who asked Charlotte to take care of him?

That woman went out alone, but she was still concerning about him. This warmed up Ernest. But he also felt annoyed because she actually asked the other woman to take care of him.

Didn’t she know that a distinction should be made between a male and a female even if Charlotte was her sister?

He took a glance at Charlotte coldly and turned around and left without saying anything.

“Ernest…”

Unwilling to give up, Charlotte wanted to follow him. However, when sensing the dangerous and cold aura exuded from him, she lost her courage to grasp his hand again.

Charlotte had known that Ernest was noble and indifferent and had gotten herself prepared for it. Nevertheless, she hadn’t expected that he was as cold as an iceberg and it was even so hard for her to approach him.

But she would not give up easily.

Charlotte ran towards Ernest and said with a concerning look, “Ernest, then let me change the bandage for you.” She then added, “It was my sister who asked me to help you. You can’t wait for her and only change your bandage until she comes back. It will be bad to your health if it’s delayed.”

Ernest’s expressions became gloomier when hearing her words.

Did Florence plan to come back late in night? She was just going out to have a meal!

Moreover, she actually asked the other woman to help him change the bandage and allowed her to touch his hand…

Ernest looked colder. He glanced at Charlotte coldly and dangerously, “Don’t follow me.”

Although these were three simple words, they sounded like a threat and were quite terrifying and deterrent.

Charlotte stopped uncontrollably and her face looked slightly pale.

Although she was very unwilling to accept it inwardly, she felt horrifying and didn’t dare to step forward out of instinct.

Ernest was in a bad mood. He stated to deal with the business affairs after entering the study and scolded most of his subordinates when having the video conference.

Those C-level executives all felt upset. It was in the evening, the time that they were supposed to come back home to enjoy the sweet and relaxing time with their wives and children, but their CEO Ernest suddenly summoned them because of work-related matters and scolded them hard…

What sins had they committed that they had to suffer this? Had they offended anyone?

“Knock, knock…”

A burst of gentle and rhythmic knocking sound came from the door.

Ernest, who was exuding a cold aura and scolding his subordinates, was stunned for a while and then looked towards the door.

Judging from knocking sound, Florence must have come back.

Ernest checked the time and found that it was still early.

His mood was suddenly improved and even the gloominess on his face dispersed. He said in a low voice, “Come in.”

“Click.” The door was opened.

With a tray that had coffee and dessert on it, Charlotte came in with a bright smile, “Ernest, you haven’t had dinner and I’m worried that you will feel hungry. So I asked Timothy to send some dessert and coffee here.”

Ernest’s expression became gloomy again when he saw Charlotte.

He said with a cold face, “No need. Go out.”

“But you haven’t eaten anything. I don’t know how to explain it to my sister if she learns about this after coming back.”

It was her sister again.

How could Florence ask the other woman to take care of him easily? Didn’t she feel worried?

The more he thought of it, the angrier he became.

He rebuked coldly, “Get out.”

His voice was low and icy-cold.

His employees, who were at the other ends of the video conference, all tensed up. Their CEO was in an extremely bad mood today and all of them probably had to suffer.

Charlotte was scared and wanted to escape out of her instinct. However, she still gritted her teeth and pretended to be aggrieved.

She looked at Ernest and whispered, “Ernest, you can call me if you need my help. I will be at the door.”

She went out after finishing the words.

The study was prevailed by silence again and there was no sound coming out from the laptop. It was so quiet that even the falling sound of a needle could be heard.

Ernest pulled a long face and felt fretful out of no reasons.

He wouldn’t deprive of Florence’s freedom. She said that she wanted to go out to have dinner with her friend and he agreed with it without hesitation. However, he felt very fretful because of Charlotte’s actions.

If Florence dared to come back late tonight, he would definitely punish her!
