My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins novel Chapter 359

“Mr... Mr. Hawkins!”

Phoebe’s father stood up from his chair immediately, gaping at the man walking into their house in disbelief.

He wondered if he had an illusion. Ernest Hawkins, the most powerful man of City N and CEO of the Hawkins family, had come to his house.

“What have brought you down here, Mr. Hawkins? Please have a seat!”

In a panic, Phoebe’s father wiped his hands on his clothes. Then he rushed to Ernest hurriedly.

Ernest paused. He looked through Phoebe’s father and stared at Phoebe.

He said in a deep voice, “I’m here for you.”

Phoebe’s father paused his action to reach out to shake hands with him. He felt quite embarrassed. It seemed that Mr. Hawkins completely had ignored him.

“Phoebe, why are you standing there? Hurry up and come over.”

“Oh. Okay.”

Phoebe came back to her senses. She walked to Ernest and said, “Mr. Hawkins, please have a seat. What would you like to drink?”

“Nothing. I just want to ask you a few questions. Please answer me honestly,” Ernest went straight to the point.

Phoebe had to stand in front of him obediently as if she was an elementary student answering the questions from her headteacher.

Seeing what was going on, Phoebe’s parents left the room, leaving them privacy.

They didn’t know what questions Mr. Hawkins would ask, but they couldn’t stay there and listen to those questions.

Seeing there was no one else around, Ernest asked, “What have Florence and you done in the villa of Senna International Villa Community?”

Phoebe was startled for a moment. It wasn’t until now did she realize that he was asking about Florence’s matters. No wonder the superior Mr. Hawkins would come to her in person.

In a surprise, she asked, “Haven’t those things been cleaned up yet?”

It had been a long time.

A moment later, she thought of something. Looking at Ernest in surprise, she asked, “Mr. Hawkins, have you just seen the decoration in the villa?”

Ernest’s eyes were darkened. He nodded.

Phoebe’s mouth corners twitched. Ernest didn’t find it early. Now he had seen it, but it was already past one in the afternoon.

Looking at him, she said, “Mr. Hawkins, may I ask what you want to know since you came to ask me about the decoration? Do you want to give me a punishment or...”

“I want to know what Florence’s purpose was,” Ernest spoke word by word in a deep and determined tone, which contained the uneasy determination.

Looking at the elegant and powerful man in front, Phoebe couldn’t help but heave a sigh.

Usually, such a superior man as Ernest should be extremely wise and self-confident. However, after he had got along with Florence in the past few months, it seemed that Florence had damaged his self-confidence.

Just like the matter that Florence took the quiz to confirm if she had fallen in love with Ernest. Ernest was also quite certain that he was the one that Florence loved. However, at last, Florence denied it ruthlessly.

It hurt Ernest’s self-esteem so much that even he couldn’t confirm what Florence’s purpose was, even after he had seen the decoration of the love confession in his house. Instead, he came to her, an outsider, to confirm his thoughts.

However, if he had known Florence’s purpose, Phoebe wondered if it would be too late for him to do something now.

Checking the time on her watch, Phoebe said seriously, “Mr. Hawkins, if you do love Florence truly, please rush to the airport now. Probably it’s not too late.”

Although her words didn’t answer Ernest’s question directly, they confirmed his guess.

The last trace of uncertainty in his heart was finally dispelled.

It turned out that Florence indeed fell in love with him...

His heart was filled with excitement. He turned around and walked out quickly without hesitation.

In this case, how would he let Florence leave him?

The only reason that he let go of her was that she didn’t love him. However, if she loved him, he wouldn’t let go of her at all.

Phoebe’s parents showed up after Ernest was gone.

Looking at the man’s rushing back, they were quite confused.

“Phoebe, why did Mr. Hawkins come to you? Have you got into any trouble?”
