Chapter 1423

When Hobart heard Florence mentioned the name 'Milton Cook', his face clouded over. "It's not him. Stop asking."

Florence did not see his expression, so she did not notice that something was off with him. "Oh, it isn't him. Forget about it then. I don't care about him or anyone else if not for the fact that he's Amelia's good friend."

After Florence said that, she turned and started humming a song.

For some reason, Hobart felt that his stomach was hurting even more when listening to her melodic voice. He thought to himself that Florence was trying to throw him off. More importantly, she succeeded. How detestable!

On a second thought, Hobart felt asked Florence, "Um. Is Amelia still in contact with Milton?"

"How would I know? But, they're good friends. Surely they do keep in touch?" After Florence finished, she looked at him defensively. "You said you had no intentions on Amelia. Why are you asking about her relationship with other men then?"

Hobart choked on his words and covered up for himself, "You were the one who brought

up Milton. I was just continuing the topic." Florence nodded as she said, "Oh, I see. I might've thought too deep into this." Hobart could not contain his anger and asked, "Since Amelia and your brother are so lovey-dovey, why are you so anxious about them?"

"I'm not anxious, it's just that Amelia is exceptionally charming, and Patrick is... well, let's not talk about him." Florence's almost spilled out the fact that Patrick was in a car accident. Fortunately, she stopped before she could let on more. She then changed the topic and said, "Anyway, I have to keep an eye out for Amelia on behalf of Patrick, or scoundrels like you will swoop in on her."

Scoundrels like him?

What a joke!

As the eldest son of the Hobart family, he could have as many women as he wanted, so why would he chase after a strong-headed, married woman?

Hobart would never admit that he was indeed bitter about not being able to succeed in pursuing Amelia at this moment. She was a taint in his dating history! However, Hobart had a skill, which was he knew how to 'forget'. But, his trick had flunked completely after meeting Florence!

Hobart was annoyed by Florence's continuous reminder of his failure, repeating how he had adored Amelia but could not secure her. He was so irked that he had the impulse to shut Florence's mouth up!
