I Once Married You (Harper and Benjamin) novel Chapter 38

Chapter 38 Get Her Pregnant in Two Days


Benjamin frowned slightly and said a little displeasedly, "Grandpa, did you agree because you were angry, or because you respected our decision?"

"What's the difference?" Paul said coldly.

Benjamin said, "If Harper and I divorced without telling you, you wouldn't be able to stop us, but I didn't do that because I just hope you can respect our decision rather than keep being furious."

"Oh, listen, my dear grandson wants to teach me a lesson. Good for you..."

Then Paul coughed, and Harper was the closest to him, so she quickly stood up, patted Paul's back, and poured some water. "Grandpa, don't get excited. Your health matters more than anything."

"Harper, I'm so sorry for you. I shouldn't have told you to marry him at the first place."

"Grandpa, don't say that. You don't know how much I appreciate you. As for our divorce, it may be the best for us. After all, we have to face different choices at every stage of life, right?"

She thought silently in her heart that if it hadn't been for her grandfather, she wouldn't have been able to have this one-year marriage with Benjamin. In fact, it was enough.

Probably, her persuasion worked for Paul.

But Paul said again, "You can divorce, but I have a request."

"Grandpa, please tell me."

Benjamin and Harper said at the same time.

"You have been married for a year and have not lived with us in the Martin Manor. We are still a family anyway, so you must stay here for two days. You are not allowed to go anywhere but to stay here during these two days."

Harper was stunned.

Benjamin also fell silent.

They looked at each other.

Paul said, "Of course, I can't force you to do that if you don't agree."

The person Paul said to was Benjamin; he only targeted Benjamin.

Lily also said, "Benjamin, grandpa is not feeling well. You can't often irritate him."

"Since he asked you to do that, Benjamin, you must abide by it and do what grandpa said." Scott added.

So Benjamin and Harper stopped arguing.

Paul always acted vigorously and resolutely, and he had to do what he said immediately. "Then, you two should start tonight."

Then, he immediately told the servants to clean up the room for them and prepare their pajamas.

Although this decision was a bit sudden, it made no difference to Harper and Benjamin since they just lived in a different house. After all, they lived together in the Pineview Villa.

After dinner, they chatted with Paul for a while. Benjamin's cooperation probably satisfied Paul, so he stopped being mean to Benjamin anymore.

At about ten o'clock, Paul tried to let them stay alone and said, "You two should go upstairs and have a rest. See if you need anything? If so, ask someone to bring it to you."

Harper nodded and then followed Benjamin upstairs under Paul's gaze.

As soon as they left, Paul immediately said to Lily, "We must find a way to ease the tense relationship between them, see if we can stop the divorce."

Lily nodded with a plan in her heart.

When she returned to the room, she said to Scott, "Did Paul hint that I would prepare something for Harper so that she can get pregnant in two days?"

...

The room Benjamin and Harper stayed in used to be Benjamin's room. Although Harper had lived in the Martin Manor several times, she first slept in this room.

The servants had prepared the clothes and toothbrushes. They looked at each other, and then Benjamin said, "You go take a shower first."

Harper didn't refuse; she just nodded and went to the bathroom.
