I Once Married You (Harper and Benjamin)

Karma

Larry, sitting on the sofa, also saw the scene. He furrowed his brow with increasing seriousness.

Compared to his reaction, Benjamin didn't care at all and had no intention of letting go. He said rationally, "I didn't think that way. No one wants anything bad to happen to her. But since it has happened, what we need to do is minimize the damage. No matter how you treat me now, I don't care. Originally, I could have focused on finding Annie. Are you sure you want me to shift my focus onto you?"

Harper didn't speak. Her palms were burning, and it was because she hit him too hard.

She lowered her gaze, not knowing what to do.

Benjamin continued, "Harper, are you going to argue with me now because I didn't help you? What do you think is the most important thing right now? Finding Annie, right? Vent your anger on me after things are settled, okay?"

Harper stopped talking but remained cold towards Benjamin.

Harper did not sit with them but sat alone on the lazy sofa by the window. Although it was already very late, she didn't feel sleepy at all.

She kept asking in her heart, "Annie, where are you?"

She thought, "When should I start telling the story of Annie and me?

Perhaps it was the mutual understanding between us that brought warmth to our lonely hearts.

I was "exiled" to Eleanor's side by Jack and Jennifer, but I dared not have any resistance. It wasn't until I met Annie that I felt warmth. She warmed me like the sun. Our friendship had never changed since then.

Just like Annie said, 'Harper, we're going to be best friends and share everything except men.'

So, how could I not be anxious?

I would rather she didn't come to visit me, then this wouldn't have happened.

But I can't do anything. I can only wait, which makes me feel extremely tormented."

She sat there without moving. She was very tired. For the sake of the baby in her belly, she tried her best to keep herself calm. She wanted to take anest, but her mind was very clear and she couldn't fall asleep at all.

The night seemed unusually long.

It was almost dawn when she finally leaned back on the sofa and closed her eyes to sleep. Benjamin covered her with a blanket and then stowly returned to the dining room.

They didn't rest. Larry's eyes were red because of staying up. Benjamin said, "It's been so long. You know

to do?"

means. So, what are you

Larry hung his head and remained silent.

There was breakfast on the table, but he had no appetite at all.

He waited for a while before speaking, "Benjamin, do you think this is karma?""

Benjamin frowned and asked, "Have you fallen in love with her?"

"Is that important?"

"What do you think?"

"This time, I went too far, so no matter what happens, I don't plan on letting go."

He spent most of the night thinking before making this decision.

The burning feeling of anxiety made him understand what pain was.

Benjamin asked, "Do you understand what your words mean?"ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

"Benjamin, do you also think that I am just a passing fancy?"

"My thoughts are not important. This is your matter and your decision, but do you think Julia's family will agree?" Larry fell silent.
