I Once Married You (Harper and Benjamin)

Chapter 9 You Couldn't Possibly Be Pregnant

Harper hadn't eaten much all day. Therefore, once she returned to the Pineview Villa, she asked the kitchen to prepare some spaghetti.

As she looked at the spaghetti and smelled its aroma, which would normally make her stomach growl with hunger, she suddenly felt waves of nausea and the urge to vomit. Harper thought it was just because she was too hungry. However, just as she was about to take a bite, she couldn't suppress the overwhelming nausea anymore.

She then rushed to the bathroom and retched continuously.

It was an awful sensation, and Harper felt as if her insides were being pulled out.

After a while, she finally felt better. Harper straightened up, only to find herself locking eyes with a pair of deep, intense eyes.

Her eyes widened in shock, and she quickly turned to face Benjamin, asking, "When did you get back?"

Harper wondered, "How come I didn't hear him coming in?"

Benjamin's expression was calm as he fixed his eyes intently on her. "What's wrong with you?"

Harper's expression betrayed a hint of panic, but she tried to sound calm as she replied, "It's nothing."
