I Once Married You (Harper and Benjamin)

It's Better for Us to Divorce

Harper frowned, "What can I do at the hospital? I just came to check on my health because I wasn't feeling too well."

"Just feeling unwell?"

"And what else would you think it is?"

Benjamin glanced at her, calmly asking, "Harper, are you pregnant?"

Harper was taken aback by his abrupt question, but she maintained a composed exterior, meeting his gaze and stating, "I don't know where you heard that from, but I am not pregnant."

After a brief silence, Benjamin's tone remained unchanged as he asked, "Is it truly that you're not pregnant, or is it that you're pregnant but don't want the kid?"

Now Harper was sure he didn't know about her pregnancy.

Harper, composed, replied, "Benjamin, I said I'm not pregnant. Just because I come to the hospital when I'm feeling unwell, does it always have to mean I'm pregnant? I just came because I wasn't feeling well during my period, and the doctor advised some rest."

"Is that so?"

"If you don't believe me, there's not much I can do."

"Since you say you're not, I'll accompany you for another check-up."

His intense gaze locked onto her, his words not up for negotiation but a direct notification.

Harper calmly responded, "Are you suspecting that if I refuse the check-up, it means I'm pregnant and want to secretly get rid of the child?"

With his expression unchanged, Benjamin continued to observe her.

With an indecipherable mix of emotions on his face, Benjamin spoke in a low, hoarse voice. "Harper, you're reacting strongly. Are you so nervous and worried that I'll force you to get checked?" "What do I have to be nervous about?"

"Let's go then."

Once decided, it was hard to change his mind.

Harper, lips pressed together, stopped resisting. If she kept refusing to cooperate, Benjamin might suspect further. So, she was ready to go with him for the check-up.

At that moment, Julie rushed over, panting. "Where are you two going?"

Seeing Julie, Harper felt a slight relief in her heart and casually replied, "Benjamin thinks I'm pregnant, so he wants to take me for a check-up."

Julie glanced at Benjamin and teased, "Mr. Martin, do you want Harper to have a baby so badly?"Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.

Handing over the test report she

held, Julie continued, "Here are the

results of Harper's examination today. I brought it down when I finished my shift. Harper has irregular periods and needs some time to recover. She should also maintain a cheerful mood and not be constantly upset."

Benjamin didn't reach out for the report and just glanced down briefly. The name on it was indeed Harper, and the time was almost an hour ago. He thought, "So, Harper is indeed not pregnant."

A visible sense of disappointment filled his eyes as he asked, "Harper, is this result true?"

Harper met his gaze without

evasion. "Why would I fake it? Larry

was watching me here before you

arrived, and Julie had already left before Larry came. Do you think I conspired with Julie beforehand to show you fake results?"

She emphasized the word "watching" and it seemed that there were no loopholes in her statement.

Benjamin looked at her with an expression of uncertainty. He had to believe that she truly wasn't pregnant, just experiencing physical discomfort.

When he received that call from Larry, Benjamin had considered all possibilities to negotiate with Harper. As long as she kept the child, everything else would be up to her.

But now, as Benjamin realized it was

all a misunderstanding, a deep

sense of loss washed over him. Finally, he said, "If there's no pregnancy, then let it be. We had only just decided to have a child not

long ago, after all."

Harper frowned, then chuckled, "Benjamin, will your decisions be executed without my agreement?"
