I Once Married You (Harper and Benjamin)

Her laughter echoed through the phone into Kimberly's ears, and she murmured softly, "Harper, I've heard about what happened at the hospital today. Mom..."

"She told you?" Harper was surprised.

Kimberly didn't reply directly, instead saying, "It's mom's fault. She shouldn't have pushed you while you're pregnant, and definitely shouldn't have disturbed Grandma's recovery. She...she might have acted impulsively out of concern for the Mitchell family's affairs. Can you forgive her this once?" Kimberly's plea made Harper furrow her brows slightly. Setting aside her matter with Jennifer, she hadn't done anything, nor had she caused any harm to Jennifer. So, what did Kimberly mean by these words? Harper thought carefully for a moment, then immediately understood the situation.

Benjamin must have found out by now.

Of course, Yinson worked at the hospital, and he would surely inform Benjamin. Although her injury didn't endanger the child, being injured at this time was no small matter.

Benjamin only needed to inquire a little, and naturally, he would know everything.

So, Benjamin confronted Jennifer?

Otherwise, why would Kimberly need to plead with her?

Harper narrowed her eyes, her exquisite face showing a hint of indifference. "Who's responsible if her impulsive actions caused harm to Grandma? Who's responsible if her impulsive actions had harmed my baby? In the end, do I need to forgive her because she acted impulsively due to being anxious about the Mitchell family's affairs?"

Harper's voice was light, lacking strength, but enough to convey the sarcasm and disdain in her words.

Harper truly couldn't understand how Kimberly could think of asking her to forgive Jennifer.

She didn't want to hold Jennifer accountable for anything; she only wanted justice because she was the one who was hurt. But if it were Eleanor, she would not hesitate to demand justice.

But she was the one who was hurt. Although she knew that no matter what she did, she wouldn't be regarded well by Jennifer, she couldn't deny the fact that Jennifer was her mother.

So, she accepted it, albeit reluctantly.

But why was she forced to forgive Jennifer now?NôvelDrama.Org content.

Wasn't it ridiculous?

Harper took a silent breath. She said to Kimberly, "I won't forgive her, but I won't do anything to her either. I'm not a saint to smile at someone who deliberately hurt me. So, don't ask me again, and don't bother me with this matter anymore." After speaking, Harper hung up directly.

Annie placed the fruit on the coffee table in front of her and casually picked up a fork to offer her a piece of fruit. After she ate it, Annie asked, "Kimberly pleaded with you?"

"Probably because Benjamin found out and made trouble for the Mitchell family."

"Benjamín knows, and he hasn't made any move?" Annie was somewhat surprised, thinking, "Is this person really that patient?"

Harper replied lightly, "He's probably not happy, thinking that I didn't tell him immediately."

Harper held the phone but had no intention to eat the fruit anymore. She glanced at Annie, then dialed Benjamin's number.

At this moment, Benjamin was in a meeting, so Curtis answered the phone.

Before Curtis could say anything, Harper's voice came through. "Benjamin, when are you coming back? I hurt my back, and it's really painful, Annie has something to attend to and can't stay with me, so can you come back now?" She lowered her tone and softened her voice, sounding completely different from her usual cold self.

But Curtis didn't dare to listen further and felt uncomfortable, "Mrs. Martin, it's me. Mr. Martin is in a meeting. Please wait a moment, I'll bring the phone in to him."

Hearing Curtis' voice, Harper's face stiffened.

She had lost count of how many times she had started talking before knowing who was on the other end, only to end up embarrassing herself.
