Chapter 1790

    Noting Flossie’s hesitation, Edmund offered reassurance by patting her shoulder and advising, “Take your time responding.


    I still have work to wrap up in Seamarsh anyway.


    Use this time to contemte your decision thoughtfully.


    ”


    Flossie nodded in acknowledgment.


    Checking his watch, Edmund suggested, “Why don’t youe home with me for some rest? It’s not ideal to stay at someone else’s ce.


    ”


    Colin considered objecting but refrained, realizing it wasn’t his ce to do so.


    He nced at Flossie instead.


    After a brief pause, Flossie declined, “I’m still receiving treatment.


    It’s best for me to remain here for now.


    ”


    She longed for a peaceful rest.


    The sight of Edmund inevitably triggered memories of Benny within her.


    Colin let out a sigh of relief, his face softening into a faint smile.


    Concerned about Flossie’s fatigue, Edmund opted not to press her.


    He advised, “Take your time to considering with me.Belongs to ? n0velDrama.Org.


    If you decide, feel free to reach out.


    I’ll handle all arrangements.


    ”


    “Alright,” Flossie responded in agreement.


    Edmund didn’t linger for long.


    Colin returned to the room after seeing Edmund off.


    Flossie opted not to return to sleep.


    Instead, she remained seated on the bed, clutching a partially consumed ss of water.


    Her countenance was somber, her gaze directed downward.


    Having lingered outside the door, Colin eventually entered the room.


    “Are you considering leaving with your father?” he inquired.


    Flossie grasped the implication, yet she struggled to formte a response.


    Shifting the conversation, she expressed gratitude.


    “I apologize for the inconvenience due to my illness.


    Your assistance has been invaluable.


    I promise to treat you to dinner once I’m fully recovered.


    ”


    A furrow appeared on Colin’s brow.


    He found her formality ufortable.


    Colin, mindful of Flossie’s recent experiences, worried that she might be more guarded.


    He believed that rity was crucial for any opportunity between them.


    Upon reflection, he earnestly expressed, “Being with you brings me immense joy.


    I earnestly ask for an opportunity to care for you.


    ”


    Flossie was taken aback, her mouth slightly agape, as Colin unexpectedly requested an opportunity from her in that moment.


    She avoided his intense gaze and quipped yfully, “Are you implying that you want me to fall ill frequently?”


    He observed her avoiding eye contact and felt a twinge of disappointment, yet he was determined to rify his intentions.


    “You know I didn’t mean it like that…”


    Flossie chose not to engage further.


    She closed her eyes wearily, stating, “Colin, I’m exhausted.


    I need to rest.


    ”


    Feeling a bitter pang in his heart, he spoke in a raspy voice.


    “I’ll step out for now.


    Rest well.


    ”
