RankNovelBenny was stunned for a moment.
Then, he nodded slowly.
Because of this, Flossie becagitated again.
She asked, “If so, why didn’t you tell me?”
She fixed her eyes on Benny, waiting for his reasonable explanation.
“I have been wanting to tell you.
But Edmund wanted you to accept him slowly, so he askedto hide it from you.
| had no choice, Benny said truthfully.
Flossie smiled and said in a self-deprecating tone, “Just because he is your business partner? He told you to hide
it from me, so you did? Am | less important than an outsider in your eyes? Are you not worried that he only made
up that story to make you loyal to him?”
“No, he will not do that.
” Benny wanted to say something more.

After a moment's hesitation, he decided to tell the truth.
“I secretly took your hair for a paternity test.
He is indeed your biological father.
Upon hearing this, Flossie had mixed feelings.
She was at a loss for words.
Benny noticed her silence, and she seemed like she had lost her soul.
He held her in his arms and apologized.
“l am so sorry.
It was all my fault.
| should have confessed to you earlier.
At least | shouldn't have let you find out the truth in this way.
Don’t be angry now, okay? If you are still angry, hit me.
Beatuntil you vent your anger.
But please, just don’t run away from hagain.
Flossie didn’t resist when he hugged her.
After a while, she raised her head, looked at him, and said, “I don’t blyou anymore.
It has nothing to do with you, after all.
| only reacted that way yesterday because | couldn't accept it at first.
Flossie thought about it overnight.
Perhaps Benny hid the truth from her because he was afraid that she wouldn't be able to accept it and might do
something reckless when she found out the truth.
Edmund must have thought the same.
That was why he chose to take a step-by-step approach with her.
Flossie couldn't keep calm when something happened in surprise.
Benny, on the other hand, was surprised.

He didn’t expect Flossie to accept this fact so soon.
He also felt sorry for her.
He reached out, stroked her hair, and said, “I know, and | understand your feelings.
It will take a long tfor anyone to accept such a major change.
Don’t blyourself.
Flossie buried her face in his arms and closed her eyes, feeling relieved.
After a while, Benny's voice sounded again.
“Flossie, let's get married.
His voice was very gentle but firm.
It was as if he had made up his mind.
“What did you say?” Flossie lifted her head, eyes wide with disbelief as she stared at Benny.
Could it be a proposal?
Was he proposing to her just now?
Uncertain if she was caught in an illusion Flossie responded, her voice tinged with bewilderment, “Say it again”
