Chapter 424
Molly knew how he felt all along.
Molly opened her mouth, but she could not get a word out of her mouth. She was a little puzzled.
It was not because she did not know how to reject him. Instead, she did not want to say something too blatant since Benjamin helped her before.
Both of them kept quiet for about five minutes. There was no better response than silence.
Benjamin understood her and that was when the waiter served their food.
“Let‘s eat. Otherwise, it‘s going to get cold,” he said.
Molly nodded as she picked up the utensils. Then, she pursed her lips and said, “I‘m sorry. I don‘t have plans for anything like that yet.”
Benjamin‘s heart hurt a little. He forced a smile while pretending to be fine. “It‘s all good. I just felt like telling you that after so long. I want to let you know how I feel.”
He indeed felt a lot more comfortable after telling Molly how he felt. “Don‘t feel pressured. Things are still the same between us. I just hope that you‘d give me a chance whenever you‘re ready to start a relationship.”
Before Molly could even respond.
“At least give me a shot, okay?” Benjamin looked at her bitterly.
Molly finally smiled because of him. ‘Why does the heir of the Forts family look exactly like a whiny woman now?‘
However, she still did not say anything after smiling faintly. Then, she started eating.
Benjamin stopped talking too and started digging into his food too.
Molly went back to the hospital again after the meal.
She returned home after she was done with work. She could not help but sigh as soon as she stepped inside the door.
Those words flashed across her mind again.
“I just hope that you‘d give me a chance whenever you‘re ready to start a relationship.”
Molly walked to the living room and sat on the sofa, feeling confused. Molly clearly knew how Benjamin felt toward her.
However, she just could not find a way to face it. Benjamin helped her a lot when she needed it and made her feel very safe.
His mind was not in the game anymore, and he lost in just a few more moves made by Grandpa Dave.
Grandpa Dave looked at Sean and Molly after the game was done. He could see that both of them were a little absent minded as he said, “The game is over now. I‘m feeling a little tired, so I’ll go upstairs now.”
“Grandpa , are you feeling sick?” Molly stood up and looked at Grandpa Dave.
“I just feel tired after sitting here for so long. Don‘t worry. I‘ll be fine after resting for a bit.” Grandpa reassured her before going upstairs.
Sean and Molly were the only people left in the living room.
Molly looked at him and said, “I‘ll go make dinner now.”
“Sure.”
The triplets were spying on them while hiding behind the rails upstairs. They only stopped looking down after they saw Molly going to the kitchen.
“What happened to mommy and Uncle Sean?” Ben said curiously.
Both of them looked so weird! This isn‘t normal at all!
