I Once Married You (Harper and Benjamin)

Chapter 49 Car Accident

"Benjamin, you're all I have. If you don't even want me anymore, I might as well be dead."

Lauren's tone got softer and softer the more she spoke.

Finally, without waiting for Benjamin's response, she hung up the phone and drove away from Pineview Villa. Lauren was going to the Martin Manor to find Benjamin and ask him why he was doing this to her. Benjamin just assumed she couldn't handle it, so he planned to tell her why when he got back to Pineview Villa at night.

Except Lauren never came back.

He called, but there was no answer. Benjamin contacted Rue, who simply replied that she hadn't met with Lauren.

Benjamin suddenly couldn't reach Lauren. In Mayby, the weather had been bad these days. It was raining heavily outside at the moment.

The time was already past ten in the evening.

Benjamin frowned slightly, and his expression was cold. Eventually, he picked up his cell phone and dialed a string of numbers out. "Pull up the surveillance footage of Lauren leaving Pineview Villa today and check where she went."

"Okay, I'll check right away," Curtis responded immediately.

There was news in about half an hour.

Lauren had driven away from Pineview Villa and had been driving around. Then, she found a place to drink when it got dark. Afterward, Lauren had driven haphazardly toward the road at the Martin Manor. But she took the wrong intersection halfway there, and there was no surveillance on the road after that, so they did not know exactly where she went.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier. Benjamin frowned and instructed Curtis in a low voice, "You arrange for someone to find her, and also report to the police for help." "Yes."

Ending the call, Benjamin then pushed open the bedroom door.

Harper was just coming out of the shower. The two of them locked eyes. He said with a warm face, "Lauren is missing."

Harper didn't say anything.

So Benjamin said, "Harper, don't you think you shouldn't have told her those things today? It's something you could have let me tell Lauren myself."
