I Once Married You (Harper and Benjamin)

Chapter 56 Should I Tell Him?

Lauren lingered for a while before her manager Rue whisked her away. She was swamped with tasks lately - releasing a single and shooting a promotional video. She had a heavyweight supporter like the Martin Group. Besides, her comeback had caused quite a stir in the industry.

Blessings to her poured in from other celebrities.

But amidst the excitement, Lauren fretted over one thing: she wanted to enlist the help of a renowned composer and lyricist, Isaac Whitman, for her new song. However, Isaac hadn't appeared in public for a while, and reaching him seemed impossible.

After some contemplation, Lauren resolved to confide in Benjamin. "Benjamin, I want to invite Isaac Whitman to write lyrics for my song, but I can't find his contact. Can you help?" "Isaac Whitman?"

"Yes, him. Despite his absence, he's still revered by artists and fans alike. If he collaborates, I believe it'll yield great results. Can you help?"

He had become popular since he was young. He was very talented, but he was aloof and rarely interacted with others. Very few people could come into contact with him.

Benjamin hesitated. "Contacting him will be difficult. Can your comeback wait? How about I ask Curtis to approach another talented songwriter?"

"Benjamin, please. I really want Isaac to write my song's lyrics."

Lauren's insistence was not only to demonstrate Benjamin's care but also to save face in front of Harper.

She couldn't afford to be rebuffed, especially in Harper's presence.

Benjamin became serious, his gaze turning cold.

Seeing this, Lauren's eyes welled up. "Benjamin, I'm sorry for overstepping. I shouldn't have troubled you. It's my fault for being too presuming. I just want to better myself, to find the person I was a year ago, I..."

"I'll have Curtis reach out, but I can't promise anything."

With a furrowed brow, Benjamin's countenance remained impassive.

"Thank you! I knew I could count on you."

Lauren's smile radiated happiness, every fiber of her being brimming with joy.

She cast a thriving glance at Harper, silently asserting, "See? He cares for me the most."

As if to say again, "Harper, have you seen it? The person Benjamin loves most is me." Harper, however, barely reacted to her behaviors.
