I Once Married You (Harper and Benjamin)

Chapter 22 A Wedding Dress?

"Harper? Sorry, it's Lauren." Lauren's gentle voice drifted over the line.

Harper paused. Then, she asked indifferently, "Why are you answering his phone?"

"Benjamin asked me to hold it while he's in the bathroom. Maybe you could call back later? Or if you have time, you could come over. We're picking out a wedding dress, and it will be great if you can join us and offer some advice. You are the expert, after all."

Hearing Lauren mention they were choosing a wedding dress, Harper froze.

She was stunned, and a sense of coldness flickered in her eyes as she repeated, "You said you're picking out a wedding dress?"

"Yes, Benjamin says I'm getting better day by day. Once you two are divorced, we can start planning our wedding. We can take the wedding photos in advance, so we're not rushing later. You wouldn't mind, right, Harper? You never liked Benjamin anyway."

Harper responded calmly, "Of course, why would I mind? I am so happy for you two. So, is this all Benjamin's plan?"

"Yes, Benjamin is very good to me. He's always so thoughtful, making sure I'm never put out," Lauren replied softly. Harper said nothing. She didn't want to trouble them anymore. "Alright then, I won't keep you two."
