Chapter 1510

Aline was taken aback for a second and then chirped, “I’ll get everything sorted pronto!”

After hanging up, Flossie stepped out in a crimson dress.

She twirled in front of Benny.

She winked at him and asked, “So what’s the verdict?”

Benny held back his thoughts but his eyes betrayed his admiration.

He coughed and looked away.

“You seem to be really into parties, huh?”

Flossie shook her head and grabbed onto Benny’s arm.

“I just made a call that’s got me all giddy.

”

Benny arched his eyebrows, turning to her.

“What’s the call about?”

“My assistant rang me up today, pushing me to hit up Liz’s fashion show.

I hesitated but after some pondering, I’m all in!”

Benny had no qualms about it.

He slipped his hand around Flossie’s waist, saying plainly, “Alright then.

”

No more words were exchanged between the two of them as Benny drove them to the party.

As they pulled up, they spotted Edmund waiting for them at the gate.

A smile instantly lit up his usually stern face upon seeing Flossie.

Approaching her, Edmund complimented her.

“Flossie, you look stunning!”

While talking, he caught sight of Flossie’s high heels.

He frowned, feeling the need to advise, “Maybe opt for lower heels.

.

“I got it,” Flossie interrupted hurriedly, worried he might bring up her pregnancy.

“I’ll watch my step next time.

”

Perplexed, Benny glanced between them.

Eventually, he fixed his gaze on Flossie, silently questioning the meaning behind their exchange.

Under his scrutiny, Flossie felt a tad flustered.

She maintained composure, raising her eyebrows with a charming smile.

“This is just a little secret between me and Mr.

Hanson.

”

With a wink, she nodded at Edmund.

Edmund pursed his lips, refraining from further comment.

“It’s getting windy.

You best head inside.

We’ll chat later.

”

“Got it.

” Flossie breathed out, relieved.

She linked arms with Benny and they made their way indoors.

Not long after they entered, another car rolled up slowly.

Benny squinted, the grin slipping from his face slightly.

The car halted and a man and a woman stepped out.

The man, middle-aged, looked fondly at the girl by his side.

As Edmund caught sight of the man’s face, his expression turned serious in an instant.

The man went by Emil Morgan and the girl beside him was his daughter, Emery Morgan.
