Shelly's words made Benjamin's parents silent for a few seconds. They were probably thinking about that possibility. To them, the most important thing now was to seize the opportunity and get Benjamin to study abroad first. As for the rest, they could talk about it later.
Anyway, they could not allow Benjamin and Shelly to be together. Benjamin had a bright future ahead of him, and Shelly, a single mother with a child, was not the best candidate for their daughter-in-law.
Mrs. Bacon and Mr. Bacon looked at each other and shared the same thought.
Mrs. Bacon said, "Do you think you can persuade Benjamin to study abroad?"
"I can." Shelly was very sure about that.
He would only be away for a year, and she could wait for him for a year. In fact, she could wait many years, let alone one year.
"Alright, I'll trust you for now." Mrs. Bacon finally relented.
"Where's Benjamin? I want to see him." Shelly said bluntly.
