Chapter 1578

Without turning around to confirm, Flossie held back.

Fearful it was all a dream, tears began to fall freely.

Maybe it was Benny’s comforting hold or his silence, but gradually, Flossie’s anxiety eased.

She started to think that maybe she hadn’t gotten Benny wrong after all.

Maybe he really did want to start a fresh chapter of their lives together.

With this thought, she found peace and drifted off to sleep.

The next day, Flossie woke up to find herself snuggled up in Benny’s embrace, which took her by surprise for a moment.

Lifting her head slightly, her heart raced at the sight of his attractive face.

She muttered to herself, “What I had done right in life to deserve being with such a good-looking man and sharing a future with our child.

”

Lost in her thoughts, she barely noticed when Benny woke up.

The instant he opened his eyes, he noticed Flossie’s enchanted expression.

Flossie glanced elsewhere timidly.

Benny couldn’t resist a chuckle.

He then ki*sed her forehead gently and said, “Feeling hungry? I’ll cook us some breakfast.

”

He was about to get out of bed when Flossie caught his wrist, holding him back.

Her look was a mix of affection and Lingering uncertainty.

Benny looked puzzled.

Flossie bit her lip, hesitating.

After a moment, she asked, “Isn’t there something you want to say to me? About that letter from last night…”

“Evelyn wants me to have a good life.

I think…I need to listen to her,” Benny began, his eyes lowered.

“Really?” Flossie’s voice shook, tears brimming in her eyes.

“Yes, I’ve moved on.

Now that I have you, I promise to treasure you,”

Benny assured her.

Flossie was shocked, disbelief coloring her voice.

Tears gathered in her eyes as she clutched Benny’s hand tighter.

“Say that one more time!”

With a loving smile, Benny repeated, “From here on out, it’s you and me.

I’m going to take care of you…”

Just as he was about to finish speaking, Flossie interrupted him.
