Fell in Love with Mr.Right at The Wrong Time

Benedict noticed the stunned look on Nicole's face and the smile on his face grew.

"You were still young back then. Although you weren't in your twenties yet, you were a decent young lady."

As she stared at him, old memories seemed to gradually unfold in her mind.

Back when her mother was ill, Nicole used to go on strolls with her. That was when she bumped into an eccentric yet generous old man.

The old man talked a lot and would often stop to chat with Nicole and her mother. As time passed, she slowly began to befriend the old man. However, he disappeared one day. When Nicole asked the doctors in the hospital, they told her that his family had picked him up and that they could not disclose his address.

"Y-You're the old man from the hospital?!" Nicole asked with uncertainty.

Although the old man back in the hospital was very talkative, he had black hair and looked high in spirits.

Yet, here Benedict was with a head full of gray and a wrinkly face. He could barely stand on his own and looked much olderthan the man she had met.

In the face of Nicole's astonishment, he sighed slightly.
