I Once Married You (Harper and Benjamin) novel Chapter 152

Chapter 152 Stranger

The chilly tone of Harper's voice displeased Benjamin. He frowned and said gently, "I don't think these can be excuses for divorce, but are you sure you want to continue talking to me like this? I will believe you if you're coming over right now."

Harper smiled helplessly, "Benjamin, you're still missing the point. This isn't something a simple walk to your car can fix. The real issue is the lack of trust between us. Even if we get through today, what about tomorrow?"

"So you're not coming to my car but going to dinner with Frank instead?"

"I didn't know you were coming, but I've already made plans with him, so I don't want to stand him up."

"Harper!" Benjamin said coldly, "Is this how eager you are to upset me?"

"If you're going to get upset over something so trivial, then I'm at a loss for what to do."

As Harper finished speaking, Frank pulled up in front of her. Through the window, he said, "Harper, get in the car."

She nodded, then glanced instinctively at the black Mercedes parked by the roadside. Benjamin must have heard Frank's words, so Harper simply said, "I'm going for dinner now. If there's nothing else, I'll hang up."

Then, there was silence on the other end.

Harper furrowed her brow and ended the call.

She got into the passenger seat, and they drove past before Benjamin. The speed seemed to be faster than usual.

In the car, Frank glanced at Harper from the corner of his eye and whispered, "Harper, did Benjamin come to see you for something?"

"No, it's nothing. I want a divorce, but he refuses," Harper replied, her gaze staring blankly out of the window, devoid of any discernible emotion.
