My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins

Chapter 473: Check It

This was a good and most thorough solution to end this conflict once and for all.

The aunts and uncles who were watching also nodded in agreement.

“This method is indeed good. We all believe in Collin’s medical skills. If he says he is then he is, if he says he isn’t then he isn’t.”

“Yeah, Flory. If the rumors and slanders spread again like this it will hurt your reputation, so it is better to let Collin check it, simply and neatly.”

“Flory, you should agree to it. If you keep preventing it, whether it is due to a guilty conscience or some other reason, we all can see it. If you are really unwilling it is better to just admit it frankly…”

Each word and each sentence felt like an invisible hand pushing Florence towards the fire pit.

She had no way out.

Florence’s face turned pale and her heart was extremely disturbed. She knew the result very clearly. Once Collin made a move, Ernest was going to be exposed.

At that time, everything was going to be destroyed.

This was something she never wanted.

However, even if she admitted it now, and she was being forced to do it in this situation, no one was going to excuse her or understand her for deceiving them…

Florence stood there stiffly, and her whole body felt ice cold. Could it be that she and Ernest really had no way to be together?

“Flory, it’s okay.”

The man’s deep magnetic voice rang in Florence’s ear.

Clarence stood one step beside Florence, looking sideways at her with a gentle smile on his lips.

Florence looked up at him, her vision blurry.

There seemed to be a huge rock stuck in her throat, choking her. She really wanted to cry out of pain but she had to exercise restraint.

He didn’t want to admit it on the spot and had rather have Collin touch his face to verify.

As a result…

Florence closed her eyes tightly. The situation had already reached this point, neither he nor she could do anything.

“Okay, check it.”

After a long time, she squeezed out a few words from her mouth very faintly.

It was as if all her strength was suddenly taken away, and there was no strength and hope left in her to fight.

Her and Ernest being together were originally done in stealth without anyone’s approval. Now, this beautiful dream of being happy together was just being torn apart by others.

There was no possibility of continuing.

Florence was standing feebly, and she almost fell. Suddenly, a strong arm came around from behind her and hugged her.

In front of her was the face of the man she had been with every day during this time.

Clarence helped her and said gently, “It’s just a face examination. Although it hurts my dignity, I am willing to accept it for you. You are too tired. Go sit and rest, and wait for me.”

He didn’t deliberately lower his voice, and was heard by everyone present.

The way he comforted her was intimate, and it also explained why Florence lost her cool in front of everyone.

It was because for a man to have his face checked publicly was very hurtful to his dignity and Florence was heartbroken for him.

Those people who were almost sure of Clarence’s identity suppressed their thoughts again.

They had to wait for Collin’s word for the final result.

Benjamin looked at Clarence with a sneer, who was still pretending and struggling until the very end! When Collin was going to check him, everything was going to come to light and then nothing was going to be left to say about Clarence!

Florence hurriedly grabbed Clarence’s hand, her eyes red and voice very low as if it was coming from deep in her throat.

“I am sorry.”

She felt guilty and distressed for causing him to encounter such things again and again.

Whenever he was with her, he always had to pay too much.

Looking at the soft small hand holding his hand, Clarence stiffened and his eyes dimmed.

Immediately, he decisively let go of Florence’s hand, still keeping a gentle smile on his face.

“You have nothing to apologize to me. Be a good girl and wait for me!”

With that, Clarence stood up and was about to leave.

However, looking at Florence’s red eyes, his heart softened. He stretched out his hand and rubbed Florence’s hair, gently comforting her.

Florence’s body stiffened suddenly.

Looking at Clarence in astonishment, her eyes flashed again and again.

Clarence didn’t say anything. He turned around and said frankly, “Where can I get it checked? We can start it now.”

“If you stubbornly insist on your own ideas, you will only be left shedding tears on your coffin.”

Benjamin sneered lowly and then looked towards the door.

He said, “I have sent someone to get Collin. He should be here soon.”

Turned out, he was well prepared.

While he was talking, a tall figure appeared at the entrance of the hall. Collin walked in leisurely, wearing casual sportswear with a smile on his face.

He quickly looked at everyone present and first nodded politely at Victoria and Alexander.

“Mr. and Mrs. Fraser.”

Victoria nodded slightly and looked at Clarence with complicated eyes.

After hesitating for a moment, she said, “Collin, I am sorry for troubling you.”

Getting his face checked in public was not appropriate for a man, and it was also very rude to the guest.

But the situation had reached this point and it was also about Florence’s lifelong happiness. Victoria couldn’t allow the slightest sloppy mistake.

When Collin was contacted, he probably knew what was going on here.

Naturally, he also knew that he was coming here to examine his face.

As soon as he had heard the rumors, he had felt that this matter wasn’t groundless. During this period Clarence had looked after Florence and he had seen the most as a doctor. During the several times, he had been in contact with Clarence; he had felt that he was inexplicably familiar.

He was just not clear from where this familiarity came from.

Together with these rumors, the doubts in his heart seemed to have been explained.

If Clarence was Ernest pretending to be Clarence, then everything was going to make sense. Why did Florence fell in love with someone else so soon? After all, when Ernest was on the verge of life and death, he had seen with his own eyes how much Florence cared about Ernest.

Such feelings were not meant to change that easily.

Collin always had doubts in his mind, so when Benjamin sent someone to ask him to examine his face, he agreed without hesitation. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.

He was also one of the people who wanted to know if Clarence was or wasn’t Ernest’s people.

Collin looked at Clarence with sharp eyes and walked to him with a smile.

“Mr. Jenkins, excuse me!”

Clarence pursed his lips, frowning slightly. His expressions were clearly forbearing.

He said, “Be professional, don’t touch me weirdly.”

His tone was forbearing as if fearing that he would touch him like a little girl softly and teasingly.

Collin choked.

He really wasn’t that boring!

“Excuse me!”

After excusing himself, Collin put his hand out smoothly, and the knuckles of his fingers skillfully pinched Clarence’s cheek. His fingers slid on his skin expertly.

His eyes were sharp and dark as if he wanted to see through the disguise and impersonation.

Florence sat stiffly and held her breath.

Collin’s hands wandering around Clarence’s face was like the executioner’s deathly blade, cutting her body and making her desperate and killing her slowly.

She couldn’t conceal it anymore.
