My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins

“Florence, what’s wrong?”
Cooper stood beside Florence and looked at her worriedly.
Florence regained her presence of mind and smiled, “Nothing, maybe it’s because I’m a little bit nervous.”
“Relax, I believe in your strength. If you really can’t make it, I’ll help you.”
Cooper patted Florence’s shoulder to give her encouragement.
Florence’s attention was diverted. She stopped thinking about that matter and got in the car.
The accommodation for all the participants of the Ovi Fashion Design Contest was in a luxurious hotel by the sea. The whole
hotel was chartered to be solely used by the participants until the finals were over.
They were led by the staff to walk into the hotel lobby.
When they were about to head to the elevator, they met someone head-on.
Isabel.
She wore a high-fashion white dress with high heels. She was wearing an intense lip colour of red and there was a stern aura all
over her body.
When the staff saw her, the staff immediately greeted her with a respectful smile, “Ms. Hopkins.”
“She’s Isabel?”
The other two designers who came together with Florence also let out a low yell. They looked at Isabel with excitement and even
admiration.
“She’s really Isabel, the genius designer who became famous two years ago in one night. I don’t expect that she also
participates in this contest.”
“Then we definitely don’t have a chance, but it’s our honour to compete with her.”
Isabel’s status in the design circle was like a rock star today. In competition two years ago, she managed to stand out. As if she
was all the way helped by God, she became a world-famous designer within two years.

Apart from that, she was admired and supported by many people.
In the circle of designers, her existence was like a popular movie star.
Upon seeing her, Florence frowned slightly. The past memories flashed through her mind so she did not feel good.
Isabel glanced at them arrogantly and saw Florence.
But, she was not surprised, as if she already knew that Florence would come.
“Florence, long time no see.”
Isabel stepped on her high heels and walked towards Florence elegantly and gracefully.
When Florence’s colleagues saw this, they immediately looked at Florence with envy, “You guys know each other?”
Florence pursed her lips. It was far more than merely knowing each other.
Isabel was a familiar person she detested very much.
Isabel walked up to Florence’s front and spoke in a low voice with eyes full of mockery.
“Florence, after two years of struggling at the bottom class, you finally have the opportunity to participate in this kind of
competition that specially belongs to designers. You’re very excited, right?”
Florence’s body stiffened and her face looked embarrassed.
These two years, she was indeed struggling at the bottom class of the design industry, waiting for the chance to raise her level.
But in fact, if it was not because that Isabel used her power to suppress and kick Florence out of the competition two years ago,
perhaps the person who became a famous designer now was she, Florence, but not Isabel.
“But this time, I still won’t give you a chance.”
Isabel smiled with confidence but her eyes were full of malice, “Florence, I’ll chase you out of this contest again very soon.”
Even if Florence really had good talent, she would not let Florence have the chance to show it.

Florence looked at Isabel coldly. She originally thought that after she let Isabel go into the police station last time, Isabel would
be a little more restrained. But now, it seemed that Isabel did not, but she became even worse.
“Then let’s wait and see. Let’s see who the winner is this time!”
Florence stared at her without fear. She was no longer Florence who was easily bullied by others two years ago.
Isabel sneered and her expression was a bit ferocious.
“There’s no use for you to be reluctant to admit defeat, I’ll soon make you cry miserably.”
As Isabel said, she ruthlessly bumped Florence’s shoulder and walked past her arrogantly.
Florence felt a pain in her shoulder. She slightly lost her balance and moved two steps backward.
A tall figure embraced her from her back to hold her, allowing her able to stabilize herself.
“Are you okay?”
Cooper looked at Florence. There was displeasure on his handsome face.
Florence shook her head and stood out from Cooper’s embrace.
She looked at Isabel’s arrogant figure while clenching her fists tightly. She was containing her anger in her chest.
“I don’t care what kind of grudge between you and Isabel is. But I’m here this time. Don’t worry, I’ll make sure you win.”
Cooper’s voice was gentle and elegant but it was convincing.
A warm current flowed through Florence’s heart.
Not far away, Evelyn was standing at the corner. She was gazing maliciously at Florence and Cooper in resentment.
She gritted her teeth very hard to stop herself from rushing out.
After quite a while, she calmed down and chased after Isabel.
“Ms. Hopkins, hold on.”

Isabel stopped and looked at Evelyn who was walking towards her. She was somewhat confused as to why she came to look for
her.
Evelyn’s face looked bad and she spoke straight to the point.
“Ms. Hopkins, I’m Evelyn, the model who is invited to come here this time. I saw you and Florence in the hall just now. It seems
like you detest her very much?”
“Yes.”
Isabel frankly admitted it. She never intended to hide her hostility towards Florence.
Evelyn smiled in satisfaction and reached out her hand to Isabel.
“I also detest Florence very much, and I know about the matter that she is two-timing. Since both of us want to defeat her, why
don’t we cooperate?”
“Two-timing?”
Isabel raised her eyebrows with extreme interest. She was still afraid of the power of Florence’s fiancé so she did not dare to use
a too obvious means to harm Florence.
She was still thinking about how to defeat Florence but unexpectedly, good news took an initiative to come to find her...
If Florence was really two-timing, then it was certain that the Hawkins family would no longer accept her. Without the Hawkins
family as her support, Florence could be easily defeated and humiliated by her.
And Florence would have no chance to become successful again.
Isabel and Evelyn were planning to have a vicious action but Florence was still unaware of it.
The group of people followed the staff and each went to their respective rooms.
Their rooms were arranged irregularly. The distance of rooms of the other five people was not far but Florence was directly
separated as there was a difference of a few floors in between her room and theirs.

Cooper asked the staff with dissatisfaction, “Why does Florence have to stay on the 18th floor, I’m his assistant, I should live on
the same floor as her.”
“Sorry, you guys are late so there are only a few rooms left,” the staff replied.
Cooper was vexed. He still wanted to say something else but Florence smiled.
“It’s okay, I’ll have to use the elevator anyway, it will be convenient for me to drop around.”
As she said, she took her luggage and intended to go to the 18th floor.
Cooper took the luggage over, “Let me send you there.”
She froze and apparently looked uneasy. He added, “I’ll need to recognize the path first so that I won’t go to the wrong door
when I go to find you after that.”
‘Ding’.
The elevator door opened.
When she was going to walk out, she surprisingly saw a familiar tall figure. It seemed like it was Ernest.
He had come here?
Her heartbeats suddenly quickened. She subconsciously stepped out of the elevator and walked quickly towards the man.
