Chapter Married 14
Chapter 14 Lauren Lied
Harper said, “Maybe. We’d better be careful.”
“Okay, I’ll check it out.” Frank hesitated to speak.
But Harper didn’t notice his hesitation, thinking that he was tired, so she asked him to rest early and ended the discussion.
After turning off the computer, she picked up her phone and looked at the time. It was already past ten o’clock, and Benjamin probably wouldn’t be back tonight.
Harper suddenly remembered. Benjamin’s reminder. She thought, “Benjamin hoped I would keep a distance from men before the divorce, but what about him? Could he be strict with himself?
With this in mind, she pressed her lips and called Benjamin.
The phone was connected soon, but what Harper heard was a gentle female voice. “Harper? I’m Lauren. What’s up?“!
Harper from, thinking, “Huh, Benjamin really loves Lauren. He even let her check his mobile phone.”
She gritted her teath and said coldly, “Put Sanjamin on the phoon”
Lauren said, “I’m sorry. He can’t come to the phone now. How about you call back later?”
“I can wait.”
“Harper, I’m not willfully refusing you. Benjamin is…”
“Go ahead,” Harpe continued.
Lauren glanced at the ward door that had just closed. Benjamin went to talk to the doctor about her discharge. She deliberately said, “Benjamin is taking a shower now, and I don’t know when he will finish out, so
Harper stiffened, and her eyes widened in disbebel.
She thought. “Wake up. They have been so intimate. Benjamin will only ask me to keep a distance from man, but he has gotten closer to Lauren. That’s ridiculous!
Harpar clutched the phone tightly and said indifferently, “Okay, I know, I won’t disturb you.”
Before Lauren could respond, she quickly hung up. She was afraid that she could not contral her emotions if she hung up a
cond later.
Harper finally understood. Benjamin asked her to keep their distance from men because he was afraid that she would do something to discredit him. He had never taken her reputation into consideration or thought about whether she would be laughed at,
Harper sneered and thought, “If I were Lauren, Benjamin would never do this, right?
Pity there were no ifs,
In the ward, Lauren bald Benjamin’s mobile phone and hesitated for a moment, then delated the call history and put it back
The next second, the ward door opened, and Benjamin walked in. He noticed Lauren’s flustered expression and asked, “What’s wrong? Are you fealing unwell?”
Lauren shook her head and smiled. His eyes were bright. “Benjamin, what did the doctor say
“You need to take a good rast, then you can be discharged from the hospital in the next two days, I will arrange a place for you.”
Lauren smiled, “Okay. Listin to you.”
“Um.” Benjamin nodded. He glanced at the mobile phone on the counter beside him, then he picked it up and checked it. There were no messages.
He said in a
in a low voice, “It’s getting late. You need to go to bed. I have to go, and I’ll come see you tomorrow,
Lauren quickly grabbed his clothes, pressed her lips, and said reluctantly, “Benjamin, I’m scared to be alone. Can you stay here tonight?”
Benjamin was expressionless, and his deep eyes were full of indifference. He said, “Lauren, I’m still married, and it’s inconvenient for me to stay here. Any rumors will affect you. I don’t want this to happen. The care worker will come over later. Be good, huh?”
Lauren was silent, with grievances on her facs. Tears walled up in bar eyes, but she tried not to shed them. “Benjamin, are you really going to divorce Harper? I don’t want push you, but somehow, I just have no sens of security. I’m afraid that you will have feelings for the beautiful and lively Harper, so I…”
Benjamin frowned. “I will definitely divorce her, but I need some time to persuade my grandpa. Lauren, take care of yourself. I will handle there things.”
Then can you accompany me here tonight? Lauren looked at him expectantly.
