I Once Married You (Harper and Benjamin)

Chapter 280



Partnership

All along, Harper knew she was dispensable to Jennifer or the Mitchell family.

Then, after marrying Benjamin, the rest of the Mitchell family, except for Jennifer, eased up on her a little bit, but that was only in person. As for behind-the-scenes, nobody knew it.

However, Jennifer was cold to her whenever she was, and to put it mildly, Jennifer treated her worse than she would have treated a stranger.

Hearing Harper's response, Jennifer was briefly silent before she repeated the question. "Are you really pregnant?"

Harper frowned. "Why are you calling if you don't believe it?"

"Harper, if you really are pregnant, why didn't you ever tell me? Are you at home or at work now? I'll go over with your dad to see you."

Harper was slightly stunned by the magnitude of Jennifer's change in attitude.Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.

Not waiting for Harper to answer, Jennifer asked again, "Are you at home? Then your father and I will go over there now. You're pregnant now, so you need to eat more fruits. I'll buy it over to you." Jennifer's enthusiasm took Harper a long time to come around.

The only thing she could think about at the moment was that it was fortunate that Benjamin had gone to the office after dinner so that he wouldn't see Jack and Jennifer because her subconscious thought was about the Mitchell Group being rejected by the Martin Group for a partnership.

She only prayed that she was overthinking it.

Forty minutes later, Jack arrived at the apartment with Jennifer. They sat on the couch and looked around, then said indifferently, "How come you're still living here now that you're pregnant? Aren't Benjamin and the Martin family going to change you to another house?" "I'm fine living here now, and I can take care of my grandmother."

Harper intentionally mentioned Eleanor, but Jennifer was having none of it, just frowning. "Harper, you're pregnant now. You should take this opportunity to sit tight in your position and enjoy the benefits you deserve."

Probably because she was worried

that Harper would not listen,

Jennifer hastily pulled Jack. Jack hurriedly agreed, "Your mom is right. Since you are pregnant, you should not mention divorce in the future. Besides, didn't Sir Martin say

anything about giving you the shares after you got pregnant?"

"He did, but I refused."

"What? What's wrong with you? Harper, how could you refuse?"

Jack was immediately agitated and said, "Harper, do you realize what you're doing? The shares Sir Martin gave you are not only yours but also owned by the Mitchell family Why don't you discuss this with me?"

"I don't think this is something that needs to be discussed. The Mitchell family and the Martin family are two families. How can they be lumped together?" "You..."

Jack was pissed off.

He glared at Harper. "Hurry up and get Benjamin to resume his partnership with the Mitchell Group. This matter is seriously affecting the normal profitability of the Mitchell Group." "So that's why you came over?"

Harper looked with indifference at her parents sitting on the couch and the fruit basket on the table that they had bought over. She clearly felt what hypocrisy was at that moment. Jack's expression was serious, and he didn't say anything.

Jennifer, however, said, "No matter

what our intentions are, we are doing it for the good of the Mitchell family. You are also a member of the Mitchell family, so of course you have to consider for the good of the Mitchell family."

Harper pressed her lips together slightly and didn't speak anymore.

The atmosphere quieted down with it.

Jack asked indifferently, "What do you mean you're not talking?"

"Nothing. But I may not be able to do what you're asking because the Martin Group isn't under my control, so there's nothing I can do."
