I Once Married You (Harper and Benjamin) novel Chapter 447

Benjamin's voice rang out with chuckles, causing Harper and Paul to turn their heads subconsciously.

He was tall, strolling out of the dim light and bright moonlight, and his face was so handsome that it was fascinating.

His approach made Harper's heart beat faster. Even after so many things happened, her heart still pounded because of his presence. She knew very well that she still loved him.

But she wondered if unrequited love could last forever.

Before Harper could figure it out, Paul said, "What? Can't I chat with Harper for a few more words?"

"Probably not. It's getting late. We have to go back."

After checking the time on his watch, Benjamin walked over to stand beside Harper and instinctively and placed his hand on her waist. His movements were natural and smooth, as if he had done it countless times.

Harper was slightly startled yet appeared calm.

The scene pleased Paul, and his tone towards Benjamin also improved significantly. "Okay. Take Harper back."

Harper added, "Paul, let me help you into the house."

"No. I'll sit here for a while and get some fresh air. I'll call them out for assistance later." Paul waved his hand and urged Harper and Benjamin to leave quickly.

Harper then gave up. She and Benjamin said goodbye to Paul before leaving.

They got in the car and departed from the Martin Manor.

While driving, Benjamin glanced at Harper and asked, "What did you talk about with Grandpa?"

"He asked if you were good to me."

"What did you say?"

Harper looked at Benjamin. "What could I say other than the truth?"

"What is the truth?" He asked.

"It's average."

"Average?"

"Yes."

Harper nodded with a serious face.

Benjamin laughed angrily. He reached out his hand to pinch her cheek hard and said discontentedly, "Harper, do you have a conscience? Am I just average to you?"

"You hurt me." Harper slapped his hand away, covering her face with a look of grievance. "If I had known you would pinch me, I should have told Paul that you were not nice to me at all."

Benjamin snorted.

If he weren't behind the wheel, his urge to punish her would overpower him.

Harper didn't realize it at all and added, "Paul mentioned that if you treat me badly, he plans to find another grandson."

Benjamin frowned slightly. "What did you say?"

"What could I say? I just listened to whatever Paul said."

"Grandpa asked you not to divorce me. Will you obey?" Benjamin stared at her intently, his voice low and deep.

Harper fell silent.

Benjamin asked, "Why don't you speak up?"

She looked at him confusedly. "Paul didn't say this."

Benjamin squinted his eyes indifferently and said, "So, are you planning to divorce me?"

"No, I am not."

Harper pondered what Benjamin meant by asking this question.
