I Once Married You (Harper and Benjamin) novel Chapter 285

Chapter 285 Bon Voyage


But she hadn't been silent long before Benjamin called.

On the phone, Benjamin said, "I'm leaving Mayby in the evening for a business trip to Teninus."

"Are you leaving tonight?"

"Yes."

"Okay. How long are you going to be?"

He said in a low voice, "Two or three days."

Harper said, "Okay."

And then they went quiet.

After a few seconds, Benjamin whispered, "There's nothing more you want to say?"

"Bon voyage?"

He laughed out loud, and the sound of it reaching her ears through the cell phone left her subconsciously stunned.

She thought, "What's so funny about that?"

"Is it funny?" She asked.

"Harper, is that all you want to say?"

"You're going to have a business trip for two or three days. What's wrong with me telling you bon voyage?"

"No, there's no problem. Maybe I'm the one with the problem." His tone spilled instantly into displeasure. Then, he said coldly, "Why don't you move back into the Martin Manor for the few days I'm traveling? It just so happens that my mom misses you. She and Grandpa would be happiest to see you back."

"I'll visit them, but I don't want to move there. It's too much of a hassle and not very convenient. I can take care of Grandma if I live in the apartment, so that's it."

Since she had said so, Benjamin didn't insist.

However, he still instructed her, "It's better to let the driver take you to and from work."

"Okay. I got it. So do you have any more arrangements?"

"Arrangements?" He grunted, the displeasure in his voice heavier. "Harper, you think I'm making arrangements? I'm being concerned about you. Tsk!"

Harper stopped talking.

She thought, "I can never seem to talk my way out of him, not at all."
