Explanation
Benjamin's icy voice was filled with anger and dissatisfaction.Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Harper stopped talking and directly opened the door and got in the car.
The car was quiet. Benjamin's odor filled the narrow space. The faint smell of tobacco on his body was not so pungent compared to others but had a unique flavor.
After a few seconds of silence, Benjamin asked softly, "Harper, if I hadn't said that, would you have planned to keep not seeing me?"
"How could that be? Divorce procedures require both of us to be present, so how could I not see you all the time?"
"You can't wait to divorce me?" Benjamin said angrily.
She said, "I only answered that because you asked."
"Are you sure you want to keep talking to me with this attitude?"
"What attitude should I use with you? You teach me."
Benjamin stared unblinkingly at her for a few moments as he held back his inner emotions until he calmed down before saying blandly, "It was not what you saw at the door of the restaurant last night."
"Lauren's parents came to Mayby for a physical examination. The situation was a bit complicated, so they asked me for help. Out of courtesy, I took them to have a meal together last night. Then I sent them back to the hotel. After that, I went to your house, and you didn't listen to my explanation."
There was a hint of inexplicable aggravation in his tone.
Harper subconsciously frowned, then faintly responded, "Well, I know. But you didn't have to tell me. After all, this is something between you and Lauren. It has nothing to do with me."
"That's the only response you gave me?"
Dissatisfaction showed in his eyes.
Harper also looked at him and said nothing.
Benjamin sneered, "Why don't you have any other reaction?"
Other reaction?
Did she have any other reaction?
She might have any, but she didn't show it.
If it had been done before, she would definitely have been very happy. After all, he was willing to take the initiative to explain.
But now she didn't feel happy. On the contrary, the more he said, the more speculations she had in her heart.
So, all Harper could do was control her heart as much as possible and stop loving him.
Harper was silent for a moment before slowly speaking. "You said that the things between you and Lauren have nothing to do with us, so I don't think there's something wrong with my answer."
Benjamin snorted, and his eyes
turned cold and deep when he looked at her. Harper turned around subconsciously. She said lightly, f there is nothing else, then I will get off the car first. Annie is still waiting for me."
Kone
Just as Harper finished speaking before her hand could fall on the door handle of the car, Benjamin's arm suddenly wrapped around her waist, and within a few seconds, she was pressed against the seat.
Then he lowered his head and kissed her.
He held her tightly, and he kissed her like crazy. For a moment, she didn't even have a chance to breathe and had to hold on to her clothes tightly.
She was worried to be seen in the
orried
next second. Because the car was
parked on the side of the road, it
was time to get off work, and there were not only pedestrians passing by, but also people from the company.
She had no choice but to bite him.
Benjamin did not leave her lips. He just paused for a few seconds and then continued.
