Chapter 1389
When Love Comes Late
Her eyes shone with hope as she looked at Benny, waiting for his answer, which unfortunately didnât meet her expectations.
âI canât attend.
Iâm already committed to something else on Saturday.
But have a great time.

Flossie, although slightly disheartened, was still thrilled about the ball.
Her social activities had been limited lately, mostly overshadowed by her time with Benny.
