Chapter 1574
When Love Comes Late
Guys tend to drink at work dos, so Flossie shrugged it off.
She slipped into comfy slippers, tossed her bag, and hit the bathroom for a hot shower.
Post-shower, she slumped on the couch, flicked on the TV, and waited for Benny.
Lately, her modeling gigs had kept her crazy busy.
She hadnât spoken to Benny properly in a while.
Running her hand over her belly, Flossie noticed the bump growing these past weeks.
With a faint smile, she realized her model friends looked after her and Benny made sure she ate right, so pregnancy fatigue wasnât much of a bother.
She felt over the moon these days and was especially eager to spill the beans to Benny.
Would he share in her excitement?
Lost in thought, Flossie surfed channels until she stumbled upon a soap opera.
Some guy in the show was confronting his lady about a letter from his exâ¦
Flossie could not concentrate on the show.
She couldnât muster the courage to hand over Evelynâs letter to Benny.
What if he found it and blamed her?
The more she dwelled on it, the more nervous and jittery she became.
She dreaded Bennyâs reaction the most-would he leave her?
With a baby on the way, Flossie dreaded the thought of her child growing up fatherless like she had.
Thinking about it, Flossie felt anxious.
Tossing the remote, she dashed to the room and yanked open the wardrobe drawer.
She hesitated before summoning courage to grab the letter.
With a deep breath, she headed to Bennyâs study, letter in hand.
Honesty was key for their relationship.
Choosing to love him meant there was no room for doubts, and Evelynâs letter shouldnât interfere with what they had together.
If Benny got mad post-reading, sheâd own up and apologize.
But if he could brush off Evelyn, theyâd be set for a happily-ever-after.
