I Once Married You (Harper and Benjamin)

Chapter 577 No Way

Harper pursed her lips, her complexion slightly pale.

Lily, unaware that the two hadn't spent the night together, instinctively looked at Harper and asked, "Did you tell him?" "No," Harper shook her head in denial.

Lily furrowed her brows, somewhat surprised. "Then how did he come back?"

Harper remained silent.

Exiting the car, Lily took Harper's hand and asked, "Has Benjamin apologized to you?"

Harper was slightly taken aback, immediately understanding why an apology was necessary.

For confining her to the villa.

Harper shook her head. "No."

"That rascal! Harper, wait, I'll make him apologize to you later. Otherwise, he won't be having this meal today." Lily said, her expression displeased.

Harper interjected, "Mom, don't get worked up. You don't need to be angry. As for the apology, let him be." "How can that be? I can't let you be wronged. Don't be afraid; I'm here, and so is your grandpa. Rest assured!" Entering the house, Lily and Harper heard Paul and Benjamin talking.

Paul asked, "You didn't come back to the apartment last night?"

"Grandpa, are you tracking me? Or do I have a mole around me?"

Benjamin smiled, his voice low and hoarse, as if he had a cold.

Paul didn't show him any respect, commanding, "Don't split hairs with me, just answer my question. Yes or no?" Benjamin replied nonchalantly, "You already know. So why ask me again?"

"Benjamin, what's with your attitude?" Paul asked, icily.

Harper and Lily, who had just reached the entrance, paused in their steps due to the conversation between them. Lily glanced at Harper subconsciously, her eyes full of concern. "Harper, Benjamin..."

"Mom, I'm fine."

Harper interrupted Lily, unwilling to explain or respond to what happened between her and Benjamin last night. Although she was now free, their relationship remained strained.

Lily sighed silently, then followed Harper inside.

In the hall, Paul continued to reprimand Benjamin.

The atmosphere visibly grew tense.

Once in the living room, Lily interrupted their conversation, saying, "Dad, guess who's here?"

Upon hearing Lily's voice, Paul immediately looked over, masking his serious and displeased

expression with a smile upon seeing Harpen He waved at Harper, "Harper, you're here! Come over and sit here."

Harper also greeted, "Grandpa."

She walked over and sat next to Paul, while Lily sat beside Benjamin.

Benjamin looked somewhat helpless, furrowing his brows. "What's wrong with you again?"

Lily made a fist-like gesture and gestured a few times toward him before saying, "You better be careful."

Benjamin didn't say anything, just raised his hand to rub his forehead in resignation.

On Paul's side, there was a bout of. concern for Harper, completely

Benjamin.

Paul then suddenly mentioned Benjamin's name, "Benjamin, stand up." Perplexed, Benjamin furrowed his brows. "What do you command?"

"I told you to stand up. Can't I even command you to do that now?"

Paul ordered forcefully.

With a soft "tsk", Benjamin complied and stood up obediently.

He leaned slightly forward, looking at Paul. "Grandpa, what's your command?"

"Apologize to Harper."

His tone showed no chances for negotiation.
