My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins

Chapter 903: I Will Do My Best

“Are you planning to marry me if you've promised my mother?”

Phoebe felt funny when seeing Stanford’s serious look, who was determined to have her confirmation.

This man was like this, always methodical in everything, even in terms of relationship and marriage.

The more he was like this, the more she wanted to tease him.

Phoebe looked at Stanford with a smile and said slyly, “Do you know how to fall in love with me now?”

Stanford was speechless for a moment.

This question was a bit over the top. He still hadn’t figured it out right now.

Phoebe revealed a cunning smile as she took a step forward, bringing them even closer together.

She raised her head, and her nose was very close to Stanford’s.

Stanford’s tall body stiffened, and his ears reddened involuntarily.

He subconsciously tried to back away, but Phoebe murmured, “I can teach you.”

Stanford’s movement of backing away stopped at once.

The person he wanted to pursue was Phoebe. If she could tell him, it would be more reliable than Stanford figuring it out himself or what Collin said…

After a moment of silence, Stanford spoke in a deep voice, “Tell me.”

Phoebe noticed all of Stanford’s reactions. She smiled even brighter.

How naïve and adorable he was in these matters!

Phoebe took her phone out in a cheerful mood, clicked on a video, and said sincerely, “You should do this more often.”

With that, she tapped on the play button, and there were moving images on the screen, and also a man’s voice could be heard.

“I just want to hug you, Phoebe. Let me hug you.”

Stanford was stunned, seeing himself on the screen. He was almost squirming as he listened to his shameless voice.

What the hell. Was this him?

Was he the man clinging to Phoebe shamelessly and kept asking for a hug?

How could it be him?

Stanford was so embarrassed that he wanted to drag the man out of the screen and beat him up, then destroy the video and all the archives on the spot.

He did so immediately, reaching for the phone and quickly clicking to delete the video.

Phoebe was very fond of this video. She didn’t want it to be deleted, so she quickly said, “Don’t delete it.”

Stanford’s action of deleting the video froze. He frowned and looked torn.

He looked at Phoebe uncomfortably.

He was drunk and woozy back then and he only vaguely remembered that he seemed to have done something awful when he was drunk. However, he didn’t expect it would be this terrible.

He didn’t even dare continue watching.

How could it be so embarrassing? Phoebe must have been so uncomfortable that she purposefully told him to do it more often just to relieve the embarrassment.

Stanford’s voice was coarse.

“I did such obnoxious things. Don’t keep it. Delete it.”

After a pause, he promised, “I promise that this kind of thing will never happen again…”

“No!”

Phoebe was afraid that he would really delete it, so she hastily took his hand and said sincerely, “It’s not annoying. I like it so much when you do this.”

Stanford was stunned.

Phoebe continued, “It’s true, Stanford. If you do this often, we can definitely fall in love soon.”

Stanford was speechless.

Seriously? He gazed at the paused video on the phone, which was showing the image of him leaning on Phoebe’s shoulder.

He was such a tall man, but it was weird for him to do such actions.

However, Phoebe said she liked it?

He looked at her in a daze. All he saw was expectation and sincerity in her starry eyes.

Does she actually really like this?

Stanford instantly got goosebumps just thinking about it. It was electrifying.

He shoved the phone into Phoebe’s hand, babbling that he had something to do suddenly. He then walked outside quickly as if he was running away.

Phoebe stood in place, looking in the direction where Stanford had run away, and could no longer hold back her laughter.

It was so funny.

Stanford was so funny and gullible. She loved him so much.

The Turner’s Mansion lounge bar.

Collin had nothing to do at the mansion and planned to come over to drink. He had just walked in when he unexpectedly saw a very familiar figure sitting at the bar.

Wasn’t that his boss?

Collin was puzzled about what was Stanford doing here at this time if he wasn’t with Phoebe?

He walked over curiously and saw that Stanford was holding a glass of red wine in his hand. He was gazing at it intensely while shaking the glass.

He frowned slightly, which was the normal state when he had met something difficult.

Collin suddenly tensed up, and his breathing even slowed down a little.noveldrama

He had been with Stanford for twenty years. He knew best the few difficult things in the world that could make Stanford frown.

And every single of them was essential and tricky that it made people want to die.

Was something big coming now?

Collin walked to Stanford’s side, and whispered.

“Stanford, what’s wrong?”

Stanford darted a glance at Collin, then back to the wine glass.

He was all tensed up.

Collin was even more uneasy. This situation seemed more severe than any typical incident. What on earth had happened?

“Stanford, what is going on? We have been through all kinds of matters for so many years. Tell me, I’ll be by your side.”

Stanford’s action of swirling his wine paused before he looked at Collin again.

He sized up Collin with his bottomless eyes.

It gave Collin a chill down his spine before he said slowly.

“Can you?”

Collin was displeased instantly, patting his chest as he promised.

“Don’t you know what I am capable of? What can’t I do?”

He could heal and save people and was even capable of shooting and killing people.

After so many years of following Stanford, his skills had long been trained to the top level in the world. Even those mercenaries were probably no match for him.

However, Collin was even more nervous as Stanford questioned his ability.

The matter must be pretty big this time.

It might even be so tricky that even his abilities might not be able to manage it.

“Stanford, no matter how difficult it is, I will stand by your side and do everything I can to help you. Just tell me, and I will do my best.”
