I Once Married You (Harper and Benjamin) novel Chapter 10

Chapter 10 Will You Go Back to Your Ex?

Harper looked up at Benjamin and replied, "Yes, I've told them."

"Why didn't you discuss it with me first?" He asked, his expression displeased, revealing a mix of complex emotions.

Harper pondered, "Why is Benjamin reacting so strongly about this? Is it because I took it upon myself to inform the Mitchell family about our divorce?"

She replied, "I don't see why we need to discuss this. Aren't we supposed to finalize the procedures on Monday? Since that's the case, informing my family shouldn't affect you, right?"

"Are you in such a hurry to sever ties with me?" Benjamin questioned with a frown.

Harper was momentarily taken aback and was utterly confused by his words.

With a resigned smile, she asked, "Benjamin, have you forgotten that you were the one who suggested the divorce?"

Harper thought scornfully, "It's he who is eager to sever ties."

Benjamin's brows furrowed deeply, his expression heavy with emotion as he spoke in a stern tone, "There was no need to rush. We could have waited until the divorce was officially finalized. Your parents have already informed my grandpa. We need to go back to the Martin Manor later."

Harper helplessly chuckled to herself and pondered, "So his pressing questions were because Paul found out about our divorce and disrupted his plans. I really have been deluding myself. Benjamin indeed wants a divorce, it's just that he doesn't want any obstacles stopping him."

She took a couple of deep breaths and said calmly, "Don't worry. I'll explain everything to Grandpa. He cares about me a lot, so he'll definitely agree."

Benjamin narrowed his eyes and looked at Harper's expression, which was composed and without a trace of reluctance. His expression then grew even grimmer as he felt an inexplicable wave of displeasure stirring inside him, leaving him feeling conflicted.
