When Love Comes Late
Chapter 1751

Tears streamed down Flossie’s cheeks once more as memories of her lost baby flooded her mind, shattering her heart.

She understood better than anyone the significance of this pregnancy.

It had been unplanned, a result of a fleeting moment with Benny.

Afterward, he had urged her to take contraceptive pills, and though she had gone to the pharmacy, she couldn’t bring herself to take them.

She had hoped for this pregnancy, yearning for a child with Benny.

Even if he were to leave her one day, the child would always be hers.

She had envisioned a bright future for her baby, filled with love and joy.

But now, those dreams lay shattered.

She couldn’t recall how long she had wept.

At first, her mind had been in turmoil, refusing to accept the reality.

Eventually, she came to realize that Benny had never truly wanted a child with her.

His displays of remorse were merely a facade.

With the loss of their baby, Flossie’s trust and hope in Benny were irreparably shattered.

She could no longer find any justification to grant him another chance to make amends.

As Flossie gradually composed herself, she gently pushed away Benny’s hand, which was reaching out to wipe her tears, and regarded him with a stiff expression.

Memories of their shared past flooded her mind, but as she looked at the man before her now, she felt only exhaustion.

“Benny, let’s end this relationship,” she uttered in a hoarse voice.

Benny’s eyes narrowed; he refused to accept her words.

“Don’t say that in anger.

We can still have a child in the future.

You’re young, and your career should be your priority.

A baby would only hinder your progress,” he insisted earnestly, as if genuinely concerned for her well-being.

Yet, Flossie couldn’t discern whether his words stemmed from genuine affection or mere pretense.

Regardless of what Benny said, Flossie remained silent, her mind seemingly made up.

Left with no other option, Benny sought to reassure her.

“Get some rest first.

I have some matters to attend to.

I’ll come see you tomorrow,” he stated before leaving the ward, leaving Flossie alone with her thoughts.

Feeling confined in the ward, Flossie decided to take a stroll outside for some fresh air.

However, as soon as she attempted to leave, she was intercepted by the maid.

“Miss Diaz, where are you going? The doctor advised you to rest.

”

“I’ve broken up with Benny.

You don’t need to look after me anymore.

Step aside,” Flossie replied coolly, her tone indifferent.

The maid offered a hesitant smile.

“Miss Diaz, please wait.

I’ll inform Mr.

Clifford first,” she suggested, reaching for her phone.

But before she could dial, Flossie snatched the device from her hand, her expression hardening.

“If you call him, I’ll jump from over there,” Flossie warned in a hushed voice, her gaze piercing.

Startled by Flossie’s intensity, the maid recoiled in fear.

She was merely an employee of Benny’s and had no desire to cause harm to anyone.
