My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins

Chapter 114: His Kiss

Her heart was pounding uncontrollably and her face was so flushed that it felt like someone could fry an egg on it.

Her eyes were directed elsewhere as she pulled down his pants.

His long and pale legs were dancing around in the corner of her field of vision.

This was really expletive stuff. Florence felt like she couldn’t hold stand this anymore.

She wouldn’t have much courage to continue doing this.

She pulled Ernest’s arm and led him to the bathtub with a blushed face. She said awkwardly, “You’re ready now, sit down here.”

Ernest didn’t provide a response as he stepped out and settled himself elegantly in the bathtub.

Clean water immediately enveloped him, and his naked body was vague under the disguise of the water. It added to his seductive attractiveness.

Florence almost had a nosebleed while looking at such a sight.

If it were not because of Ernest’s drunken state tonight, she would even suspect that he was doing this purposely to seduce her.

The water was warm and soothing. After immersing himself in it, Ernest shut his eyes in a trance.

Florence gaped at him sitting obediently in the bathtub and suddenly felt a flare of anger. Was she really going to wash him now?

It would be best to give up on that idea.

Since he was already immersed in water, it would be fine if he was just bathing in it for a while.

“I have forgotten to fetch your pyjamas. Stay in the water first, you can come out after ten minutes.”

Florence hurriedly reminded before darting out of the bathroom.

The moment she left, Ernest opened his initially shut eyes.

He stared in her direction, and unlike his previous drunken state, there was a kind of clarity in his eyes.

After a while, his gaze swept over pyjamas not far away, and he shifted his gaze towards himself, with how he was bathing in warm water in his underpants. He suddenly felt a wave of helplessness.

This woman was taking advantage of the fact that he was drunk to fool him.

With a loud splash, he got up from the bathtub.

After Florence had left the bathroom, she didn’t waste even a second as she rushed downstairs and contacted Phoebe to pick her up. When she was about to get out of this villa, she wasn’t able to unlock the main door no matter how many times she tried. She was making this loud clanking sound but the door wouldn’t budge.

The outcome was the same even if she tried to use her fingerprints.

Was this door spoilt or what?

Florence fumbled with it for a while but it was still the same result. She turned around in the direction of Ernest’s bathroom and thought that if this continued, he was going to come out and he wouldn’t let her go just like this. That would spell her doom.

Therefore, Florence made her way to the backyard. He remembered that there was a small side-door there which could be unlocked by hand.

When she was at the backyard, Florence once again saw that place that was full of flowers. There were some of them that formed the words “Marry me”, and it still aroused a romantic feeling in one’s heart the moment one laid eyes on it.

Her mind replayed the image of Ernest kneeling down on one knee and holding out a ring.

She felt her heart skip a few beats uncontrollably.

“Sigh…”

Florence shook her head in an attempt to shake off such thoughts. No matter what kind of romance she was feeling, everything was a lie. She couldn’t just sacrifice her whole future just because of a fickle feeling.

Without any hesitation, she walked forward.

However, she somehow stepped on something, which poked at her soles.

She removed her feet and discovered to her surprise that there was as red diamond ring lying on the ground.

It was the one which Ernest had used to propose to her.

Had he dropped it here?

As she recalled the moment she rejected him and Ernest’s disappointed expression, she had an unspeakable feeling in her heart.

She picked up the ring and studied it. It was carved meticulously, and this diamond ring was created using a very rare and expensive blood diamond. This ring was really priceless.

It was a complete waste to just leave it here.

Florence mulled over a thought for a moment before deciding to return this to Ernest.

Just as she was about to enter the villa, she bumped into Ernest.

Ernest had draped a sleeping robe over his body, and at the sight of her returning, his extremely handsome face flashed a feeling of joy.

“It turns out that you can’t just leave me alone like this.”

He advanced towards her and said in a determined voice, “Florence, I know that you care about me.”

Florence was startled by his words as she recognized the clarity in his eyes. He was probably awake now.

As she felt relieved and was about to explain, “I am here to return… ugh!”

Before she could finish her sentence, her lips was sealed by Ernest’s.

He pulled her into his embrace and kissed her violently and with emotions.

The man’s fragrant smell assaulted her and spread into her mouth and overcame her senses. Their close proximity caused her to shiver in anxiety.

Florence felt that her brain was about to explode. Why did this man kiss her all of a sudden?

She hastily tried to push him away, but it only made him hug her tighter and kiss her deeper.

Florence was almost suffocated by his forceful assault.

She couldn’t muster any strength to fight back as she continued to be hugged by him and getting kissed into oblivion. She almost fainted in his arms.

Some time passed before Ernest finally let go of her with difficulty.

His lips touched the tip of her nose for once too.

He stared at her with eyes lit on fire, and his voice was so hoarse as if he was trying to convey something to her, “Don’t leave me tonight, alright?” © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

With a loud bang sounding off in her mind, Florence felt her whole body getting heated.

As she came back to her senses, she hurriedly pushed him away nervously, “M…My friend is almost here to get me.”

“You can tell her not to come anymore.”

Ernest replied with confidence, and he inched closer towards Florence.

Under the night sky, the man’s features were even more pronounced, and it seemed that his face was shrouded in a mysterious veil, which accentuated his handsomeness. She was completely intoxicated by him.

Florence didn’t dare to meet his eyes as she quickly shoved the ring into his palms.

“I…I picked this up from the ground just now. I’m here to return it to you. Cough, I need to go now.”

Before she could make a move, her wrist was grabbed by Ernest.

Ernest stood in front of her and stared into her eyes. His gaze was extremely deep and dark.

He pulled her hand with conviction, and he solemnly and slowly wore the ring into her ring finger.

The red coloured diamond ring was so pretty and it looked like it was crafted for Florence alone. The ring was shining on her finger.

Florence felt her heart getting attacked by something.

She was at a loss for words, “Mr. Hawkins, you…”

“This belongs to you.”

Ernest said this with certainty, and his hoarse voice sounded extremely sexy.

He held her hand and added solemnly, “You can’t remove it or return it to me.”

Florence’s hand which was about to remove the ring stopped in its tracks.

“I don’t think this is fitting for me, I…” She didn’t agree to marry him after all.

Ernest tightened his grip on her hand, “You friend is here. Are you going? If you’re not, you can sleep with me.”

Florence felt herself blush. This man was really unreserved now.

“I’m going now.”

She didn’t dare to say anything more as she rushed towards the gate.

It was weird that the gate was about to give way easily now. She had a hard time trying to get it open.

Florence gaped at the lock in confusion.

Ernest followed her from behind slowly, and as he watched her doubtful face, he secretly kept a tiny remote control into his pocket.

Every facility in this villa could actually be controlled remotely.
