My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins

Chapter 686: Biological Brother?

“He’s not here.”

The woman impatiently dropped a sentence and was about to walk away.

Florence was shocked, how came Ernest was not there?

She did not care about the pyjamas she was wearing. She hurriedly followed the woman out of the room and asked anxiously,

“Then where did he go? When will he be back?”

“Why do you have so much nonsense! Are you a sparrow, chattering incessantly!”

The woman yelled directly at her with an angry face.

Florence froze in place for a moment and flickered her expression. She was shocked.

This woman had a bad temper, right?

She stood awkwardly in place for a moment, not knowing what to do.

The woman gave her a disgusted glare and had no intention of answering her questions. She turned around to leave.

Florence panicked. If this woman did not say anything, where was she going to find Ernest?

She did not know anything about the situation here either.

When she was troubled, at that moment, three little heads emerged from the window.

They were all five or six years old children, two boys and a girl.

One of the boys yelled, “Pretty girl, that handsome boy has gone to the palace.”

They were supposedly talking about Ernest.

But, palace?

The special term made Florence feel surprised. She hurriedly asked, “Little girl, may I ask is this place Raflad?”

The little girl nodded obediently, “Yes.”

She was overjoyed, it was Raflad!

She and Ernest were unexpectedly rescued from a desperate situation and found this country.

Florence said excitedly, “Little girl, can you bring me to the palace?”

It was very uncomfortable for her to wake up in a strange place. Being disliked as well as scolded by the owner of the house made her feel even more uncomfortable and uneasy.

All she wanted to do now was to find Ernest quickly. She wanted to see him and make sure that he was safe and sound.

The little girl’s eyes flickered and she hesitated.

“We can’t go into the palace, I can take you to a place nearby ...”

“What are you talking about? Is the palace a place for a lowly person like you to go near?”

The woman who walked to the door scolded the girl.

The little girl immediately lowered her head. It was obvious that she got scolded quite often and was afraid of this woman.

Florence frowned. She did not like the fierce woman.

“I’ll go there myself.”

She looked at the pyjamas she was wearing, “Can I have the clothes which I was wearing before? I would like to change my clothes.”

The woman’s fierce gaze shifted directly towards Florence.

With a face full of disgust and without hiding it, she scolded loudly,

“The palace is not a place that you can go to just because you want to, so don’t think blindly. Stay here in peace, your brother will come back after his business, don’t go and put him into trouble. You shall behave properly as a sister.”

Brother?

Sister?

Florence widened her eyes in shock. She thought that the woman did not know how to socialize and had misunderstood her relationship with Ernest.

She explained, “You’ve misunderstood, he’s not my brother ...”

“Is his name Ernest?” The woman asked.

Apparently, Ernest had woken up much earlier than she had.

Florence nodded, “Yes, but my relationship with him...”

“Yea, he said that he’s your biological brother.”

The woman straight away interrupted Florence’s words. Her face was full of impatience, “When he left, he instructed you to stay here when you wake up and wait for him to come back.”

Florence was amazed and shocked.

Ernest said that he was her biological brother? NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

Based on their relationship, was it more sensible for Ernest to say that they were husband and wife?

Or did he wake up and find that it was more convenient to say that they were brother and sister?

Florence was puzzled, but this identity made her feel uneasy.

But since it was Ernest who said it, there must be a reason for him to say so.

If he told her to wait here, then she would wait for him to come back.

When the woman saw that Florence had finally settled down, she continued with a cold face,

“Your clothes are in the dressing room. After you change it, wash the pyjamas on your body yourself.”

After saying that, the woman walked away without looking back.

Florence stood in the same place, not knowing she should laugh or cry.

What kind of a place was this, how could this hostess be so mean? It was the first time she had ever encountered a hostess who asked a guest who was unfamiliar with the place to wash her own clothes.

Although it was a small matter, she was determined after experiencing all the things as soon as she woke up.

When Ernest returned, she would discuss with him to ask him to leave the house.

She would definitely thank them for saving their lives.

Only after the woman left did Florence have the time to take stock of her surroundings. She stayed in a small room just now. The place she was now standing was probably the small living room.

There were several other rooms at the side as well as a staircase. There was a garden outside and several rows of houses side by side, which seemed to be a rather large courtyard.

She thought that this family was quite rich.

But with such a big family business, why was the mistress doing all the little things like taking care of people herself? Was there no maid?

Florence was puzzled.

But no one could answer her questions. So, she went to the dressing room to change her clothes.

The nightgown was a straight dress that came right down to her ankles, but because of the soft material, her breasts would be exposed easily.

It was safer to change into her own clothes quickly.

Florence searched all the rooms nearby but could not find the dressing room that the woman mentioned.

All the rooms were identically furnished, with only a clean bed and no other furniture, and no place to put anything.

Where were the clothes?

Florence was depressed. She had to walk out of this small living room and walked to the courtyard. She saw the three children who were crouching in the courtyard quietly watching her.

These three children were playing here, they should be from this family, they must have known the environment better than her.

Florence smiled as she walked towards them. She said in a gentle tone,

“Children, do you know where the dressing room is?”

The two little boys looked at her in unison and shook their heads.

Florence was surprised. They did not know?

The little girl blinked her eyes and looked at her. She said, “Pretty girl, I know where the dressing room is, I’ll take you there.”

This little girl had a good smile on her face, she looked like an angel.

Florence loved her even more.

She nodded hurriedly, “Okay, thank you.”

The little girl immediately stood up and jumped up and down while walking in the direction opposite to the hut where she was sleeping. They went through a small garden.

She was surprised that the dressing room was so far away from the place where they slept.

The two little boys consciously followed behind the little girl. They were like two little tails.

Every now and then the little girl looked at Florence. She said with a smile,

“Pretty girl, they are my elder brothers. I usually get their clothes for them to wear, so they don’t know where the dressing room is.”

The little girl’s words made Florence feel shocked.

These two little boys were actually her elder brothers? Moreover, why did the little girl have to go get clothes for them to wear every day?
