Chapter 105: What If, I Marry You


    The two were quiet for a while before Cooper asked in a low voice, “Lately, have you been doing well?”


    “Yes, not bad. How about you?”


    “Fine.”


    Cooper replied gently. It was as if all his troubles during this time had be unimportant at this


    moment.


    He hesitated for a while, then he plucked up courage and said, “If you have any problems in the future,


    you cane to me, and I will help you. Or, if you’re bored, you can have a chat with me. After all…


    we’re friends.”


    Florence stopped walking and looked up at Cooper in dismay.


    “I’ve called you a lot during this time, and you haven’t answered any of them.”


    From what she knew about Cooper, he didn’t seem to be the kind of person who talks the talk but


    doesn’t walk the walk. But why didn’t he answer the phone?


    Cooper was stunned. His eyes were filled with joy.


    He excitedly grabbed Florence’s shoulder, “You’ve been calling me?”


    It turned out that she hadn’t stopped contacting him or didn’t care for him in the slightest.


    Florence nodded, “I thought something had happened to you.”


    When she saw him with Evelyn, she thought Cooper stopped contacting her because of his girlfriend.


    She was even a little upset because of that.


    “Florence, I’m really happy that you called me.”


    The feeling was as if going from hell back to heaven again.


    Cooper was too overjoyed to hold himself back. He embraced Florence in a hug.


    Florence did not understand why did he feel so touched suddenly?


    At this moment, a man’s cold and dangerous scolding sounded in the corridor.


    “What are you two doing?”


    Florence froze. She subconsciously pushed Cooper away and twisted her head to look at the man not


    far away.


    She saw Ernest looking straight at them. His extremely good-looking eyes seemed to be filled with ice,


    and a suffocating coldness permeated his body.


    “Mr. Hawkins, don’t misunderstand. Cooper and I were just…”


    Holding him up but ended up hugging? Florence didn’t even know how to exin it.


    Seeing her unable to exin, Ernest’s anger increased.


    He waited for her in the exhibition hall, but she didn’te back for a long time. He looked for her in


    worry but saw her and Cooper hugging instead.


    His face looked furious. He walked over in big steps and pulled Florence to himself.


    “Let’s go.”


    Florence worried about Cooper’s leg injury and feared that he might not be able to stand up alone.


    Florence hurriedly pulled Ernest to a halt.


    “We can’t go yet. His leg is injured.”


    “What does that have to do with you? He can crawl even if he’s limped.”


    Ernest’s tone was full of hostility.


    He dragged Florence tightly with great strength as if he wanted to confine her in his bones.


    The corners of Florence’s mouth twitched. She looked incredulously at Ernest. Had he eaten dynamite


    today?


    Cooper’s face turned pale. He looked at the two of them, and sadness filled up his heart.


    After all, Florence was Ernest’s fiancée.


    “Florence, don’t worry about me. I can walk on my own. You should go with Mr. Hawkins first.”


    Florence looked at Cooper. He was able to stand steadily on his own. He should be able to walk by


    himself too.


    More importantly, Ernest was like an exploded dynamite right now, so full of hostility and looked


    extremely dangerous. She didn’t dare to disobey him.


    Ernest stared at Cooper with a cold gaze. His tone was icy.


    “Mr. Scott, City N is not the right ce for you to stay. Go back to where youe from. Don’t let your


    familye looking for you.”


    It was a tant threat.


    Cooper’s face turned long. It seemed that Ernest had already known the situation of his family very


    well.


    He twitched the corner of his mouth resignedly, “No need for Mr. Hawkins to worry. I’ve already booked


    my ticket home.”


    “You’re leaving?”


    Florence spoke in surprise. But as soon as the words left her mouth, she received a dangerous cold


    stare from Ernest.


    He dragged her and started to walk in the other direction.


    He was walking fast and hurried. His tall body was filled with monstrous anger.


    Florence looked at Ernest in confusion. Who had provoked him? Why was he so angry?


    She felt that it was dangerous to stay with Ernest now. She would easily be a victim of his anger


    at any time.


    After walking for a while, Florence spoke tentatively, “Mr. Hawkins, I suddenly remembered that my


    father asked me to go home right away. There’s something urgent. Can I go first?”


    Ernest’s footsteps immediately stopped.


    Florence was slightly relieved. Fortunately, she could slip away.


    “I’ll be off then. If there’s anything else…”


    Before she could finish her words, Ernest’s arm went around her waist and pulled her into his arms.


    Her body was involuntarily pressed against his.


    The man’s familiar scent struck her face, with a trace of frightening violence.


    He stared straight at her. Every word from him was furious.


    “Florence, do you have the self-awareness of being my fiancée or not?”


    Florence was shocked. About this matter, she did not need to have any self-awareness at all.


    She replied, “We’re fake…Hmm!”


    Her lips were sealed by him forcefully.


    His kiss came fierce and fast, with a punishing and possessive nature, like a bandit’s intrusion,


    sweeping everything inside.


    It was as if she was going to be swallowed alive.


    Florence felt a strong sense of danger and a slight pain in her lips.


    She swung her hands around and tried to push him away.


    But Ernest hugged her tighter instead. He kissed her even more furiously and dominantly, almost


    causing her out of breath and draining all of her strength.


    It was only when Florence copsed irresistibly in his arms that Ernest finally let her go.


    Looking at the blushing woman in his arms, Ernest’s face turned a little less unhappy.


    He said in a low voice, “Don’t ever mess around with other men in the future.”


    Florence was flustered and embarrassed.


    She took several deep breaths and finally calmed down her distressed mood and regained her


    strength.


    She stood up from Ernest’s arms and looked at him with a serious expression.


    “Mr, Hawkins, can you stop kissing me whenever you want in the future? I’m a conservative person,


    and we are going to break off our engagement anyway. I don’t want to do such a thing with you for no


    reason.”


    For no reason?


    Ernest looked straight at her, “You are reluctant to make contact with me because we will certainly


    break off our engagement, and we don’t have a real rtionship?”


    “Of course.”


    Florence’s tone was firm. She was not the kind of woman who yed around, having one-night stands


    and did not have any taboos.


    Even just a kiss would leave her mind troubled for a whole day.


    Ernest looked excited as he suddenly understood something.


    He stared at Florence with a slight unease and nervousness, which was rare for him.


    His voice couldn’t have been lower, “What if we do not break off our engagement, and I’ll marry you?”


    The way Florence looked at Ernest changed again and again. Her heart felt extremelyplicated.


    She didn’t understand whether Ernest was saying this casually because he wanted to continue his


    flirtation with her or whether he was just asking in a teasing manner.RêAdt??St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
