Flossie stared at him, taken aback, and then her expression softened.

It made sense now why Edmund had unexpectedly appeared at the store.

Once he finished wiping her hands, Benny set the tissue aside and grasped her hands firmly.

“It’s clear to me that Edmund really cares about you.

He wouldn’t have exposed himself to danger to protect you if he didn’t.

I hope you’ll consider not pushing him away.

Flossie bit her lip, her mind seemingly elsewhere.

As a child, she had longed for a father, but as the years passed with no one showing up, she had let go of that hope.

She had been on her own for so many years.

Now, having come to terms with her past, Edmund’s sudden appearance was confusing.

She felt she was beyond the age of needing a father, unsure of how to interact with him now.

Flossie remained silent, and Benny didn’t push her.

He didn’t want to overwhelm her.

He lifted her hand to his lips and ki*sed it gently.
