I Once Married You (Harper and Benjamin)

Chapter 169



Secret

"Of course not," Harper answered accurately.

"That's good." Annie was satisfied.

Harper asked confusedly, "You seem to dislike him a lot. I remember you didn't have any conflicts, right?"

Annie said bluntly, "I despise him very much. I think he is not what he seems. He likes you but is afraid you would refuse him, so he stays friends with you because you've married. Don't you think he's being hypocritical?"

Annie's frankness left her speechless as well.

She knew Annie's character very well. She wasn't one to talk badly about people behind their backs, but Frank had helped her a lot, so she didn't say anything.

Annie realized she had spoken too much and said quietly, "I'm not interfering in your making friends. I'm just expressing my inner thoughts. If you decide to be with him, I will support you as long as you live a happy life. I..."

Harper interrupted her and smiled slightly, "Don't worry, I won't be with him. Let me tell you a secret."

Annie immediately became interested. "What's the secret?"Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

"I'm pregnant."

Annie rolled her eyes, seemingly unconcerned by the news, and then she paused for a moment, her eyes suddenly wide in disbelief. "What did you say? You're pregnant?"

Her voice was loud.

Harper quickly covered her mouth. "Keep your voice down. I don't want others to know this secret."

"So Benjamin doesn't know?"

"Of course, he doesn't know. Only Paul and I know. You are the third to know."

Annie smiled, took Harper's hand, and said, "You're so nice. I suddenly think it's a good idea for you to get divorced. You give birth to the child, and I'll raise him with you. We can find two young, handsome fathers for the child in the future. How about that?"

"Okay, you can say whatever you want, but don't let this matter leak in front of Benjamin. I don't want him to know."

Annie asserted, "I swear!"

Harper looked at her with probing expressions. She said, "Did you really come to Mayby for me?"

"Of course! Who else could I look for?"

Annie's eyes widened and her face turned slightly red.

Harper didn't expose it and said calmly, "I wronged you. I thought besides me, you would also come for your boyfriend, who keeps a sense of mystery."

"He's not my boyfriend."

"Oh, not a boyfriend, just a one-night stand?"

"Harper, I come for you from a distance. How could you tease me?"

"Sorry! Shouldn't I tell the truth?" Harper smiled happily. Then the doorbell rang the next second.

Harper and Annie looked at each other. Annie blinked and said, "Is it possible that I'm too loud to disturb the neighbors?"

Harper narrowed her eyes slightly and was about to open the door, but Annie stretched out her hand to stop her. "I'll go and explain. If the neighbors are still angry, I'll leave your house tonight." Harper nodded.

Annie opened the door with an apologetic smile. Just as she was about to speak, she found that the man outside the door was not a neighbor, but Benjamin.

Benjamin was also surprised. He had an impression of the woman before him. She was the one who left the restaurant with Harper. He said lightly, "I'm here to find Harper." "Harper is sleeping. What are you doing?"

Annie wouldn't let him in. Her expression was cold and calm as she stared at him.
