He could no longer remember how he felt when he first learned that Evelyn was pregnant. Maybe he was happy. But when he witnessed how she suffered in pain, he promised himself not to have another child ever again.
When Benny came back to his senses, he noticed the expectant look on Flossie’s face. He could already guess what she was thinking.
He looked at her and said solemnly, “I don’t want to have a child, and don’t bring up this topic in front of me again.”
The smile on Flossie’s face froze. She was at a loss for words.
She subconsciously looked down at her belly, wondering if Benny would force her to have an abortion if he knew she was pregnant.
But in the end, she didn’t dare to think about it anymore.
This was her child. No matter what happened, she would protect this child, even from its own father.

Benny and Flossie walked out of the elevator and soon left the hospital. Outside, they saw Edmund standing next to a car. He seemed to be waiting for them.
Edmund had his eyes fixed on Flossie. He stepped forward and said, “I’m here to pick you up.”
Flossie was surprised and flattered at the same time. “Thank you so much, Mr. Hanson.”
“Don’t mention it. The pleasure is mine.” Edmund rarely smiled. But this time, he gave Flossie his most handsome smile. He glanced at Benny and added, “I happen to have something to discuss with Benny.”
Flossie guessed it was about their cooperation, so her smile deepened.
“Mr. Hanson, I want to thank you on behalf of Benny.”
Edmund responded with an indifferent hum and opened the back seat door. “Get in the car. I’ll drive you home first.”
Flossie nodded and got in the car.

On their way, Edmund looked at Flossie and asked calmly, “Is everything okay?”
His meaning was self-evident. She couldn’t help looking down at her belly.
She nodded in understanding. “I’m fine. I owe you a big favor.”
“Well, if you want to return the favor, you can treat me to dinner next time,” Edmund said lightly.
Flossie agreed at once.
Benny remained silent all the time. It was as if he wasn’t there.
Fortunately, Flossie and Edmund chatted intermittently, so the atmosphere in the car became less awkward. Besides, the hospital was not far from Flossie’s apartment.
When the car stopped in front of her apartment building, Flossie got out. Then, Edmund left with Benny.
As soon as they arrived at a quiet club, Edmund said without hesitation, “Tell me what you want to do.”
