Chapter 1512
When Love Comes Late
And she was too frightened to notice that he was so handsome.
Emery couldnât help wondering why Edmund introduced Benny to her.
What was so special about this man?
On the other hand, Benny was relieved that Emery didnât expose him.
He nodded at her as a greeting.
Then, he lowered his eyes.
Now that he saw her again, he couldnât help sighing inwardly.
She really looked like Evelyn.
No wonder he mistook her for Evelyn when he was drunk last time.
After the introduction and exchanging greetings, the party began.
Edmund winked at Benny and Emil.
Then, he said to Flossie, âYou and Emery should get something to eat first.
We will just have a quick talk with the other guests.
Weâll see you later.
â
Flossie readily agreed.
After all, she knew very well that this kind of occasion inevitably involved socializing.
As soon as the three men left, Emery took Flossieâs hand and said, âFlossie, letâs go have some fresh air.
This kind of party is really boring.
I canât breathe staying here.
â
Flossie was a sociable person, and she always liked making friends.
Emeryâs cute behavior made her Like Emery immediately.
So, she didnât refuse Emeryâs invitation.
âOkay.
â
Emery took Flossie to the dance floor.
She looked back, ensuring there was a distance between them and Benny.
Then, she asked Flossie cautiously, âIs he your boyfriend? So, is your name Evelyn?â
Flossieâs expression suddenly changed upon hearing Emery mention Evelynâs name.
But she took a deep breath to calm herself down.
âNo, Iâm not Evelyn.
My name is Flossie.
â Flossie introduced herself with a smile.
âBy the way, how did you know about Evelyn?â
Emery frowned slightly.
She thought for a while and then told Flossie about what had happened in the bar that day.
âAt that time, Benny kept calling Evelynâs name.
I thought she was you.
Iâm sorry.
â
Flossie didnât respond and looked a little dazed.
Suddenly, she remembered the lipstick mark on Bennyâs clothes.
Her mood immediately dropped.
Her hands, hanging by her sides, trembled.
Her heart felt so heavy that she could hardly breathe.
When Emery saw Flossieâs reaction, she noticed something seemed wrong.
She couldnât help asking, âFlossie, are you okay? Do you want to get some rest first?â
It was only then that Flossie came back to her senses.
âIâm fine.
I donât know Evelyn.
Maybe she is one of Bennyâs ex-girlfriends.
