When Love Comes Late
Chapter 1393

Upon hearing Benny utter Evelyn’s name, Flossie was struck with disbelief.

She wished it was a misunderstanding, yet Benny’s whispers of Evelyn’s name persisted, resonating in her ear.

Her heart felt as though it was being cleaved in two.

Tears cascaded down her cheeks as she attempted to push Benny away, only for him to grasp her more firmly.

“Evelyn, don’t go.

” Benny, with his eyes sealed shut, planted a ki*s on Flossie’s forehead in an attempt to offer solace.

Flossie cried even harder, her confusion deepening as Benny seemed oblivious to her presence, fixating solely on Evelyn.

Flossie had rescued him, asking for nothing in return, holding onto the simple wish that he might notice her.

Even occasional conversations with him would have filled her with joy.

She had imagined that tonight’s events would mark the beginning of a relationship with Benny, only to discover it was a figment of her imagination.

Tears streamed down Flossie’s cheeks as she lay motionless in Benny’s arms, the joy and excitement she had experienced mere moments ago dissipating into a profound emptiness.

In a sudden impulse, Flossie rose from the bed, flicked on the light, and settled against the headboard.

After a considerable time had passed, Flossie regained her composure.

She opened the drawer and retrieved the letter Evelyn had left for Benny.

Initially, she intended to deliver it once he was fully recuperated, but having witnessed his unresolved feelings, she reconsidered.

The turmoil within her kept sleep at bay, and eventually, she returned the letter to its place.

Flossie continuously reassured herself to remain patient, reminding herself of the long journey she had already endured.

She held on to the belief that Benny would one day reciprocate her feelings.

That night, Benny slept soundly.

Upon awakening the following morning, he lay there, gazing at the ceiling, lost in thought until the events of the previous night gradually resurfaced.

He remembered his encounter with Flossie…
