I Once Married You (Harper and Benjamin)
Chapter 69
Chapter 69 What Is Your Motive?
Nathan's eyes lit up at the news. "So you're not going to keep up the cold act with me anymore? Alright, since you're willing to cooperate, I'll save myself the trouble. But you better hurry, I've taken some pills, and I can't wait."
It was only then that Harper understood; he had taken pills.
"I'm willing to cooperate with you, but don't hurt me."
Her expression turned faint, her tone carrying a hint of negotiation.
Nathan agreed, then released Harper. As he turned to get some water, Harper rushed to the door, but Nathan caught her just as her hand reached the doorknob.
"Bitch! Lie to me?!"
Nathan wanted to slap her, but his hand was intercepted mid-air by Harper.
Harper grabbed his fingers and suddenly exerted force, almost breaking them at a 90-degree angle.
Nathan cried out in pain.
"Bitch..."
"Here's your chance to speak properly," Harper warned coldly. Then, before he could react, she slowly approached him, lowering her voice, "Nathan, answer me. Did Lauren tell you to deal with me?" Nathan, sweating from the pain, dared not to speak out of anger but only nodded. "Yes, it was her, Ms. Mitchell. Please, let go of me..."
Harper's expression changed, her eyes deep with coldness. Nathan felt her beauty but also shivered at her presence, feeling as if he had been kicked in the groin...
The pain made his mind go blank, but before he could cry out, Harper pulled out something resembling a needle from her pocket and stabbed it into his backside. In just a second, Nathan collapsed to the ground.
Though he hadn't lost consciousness, Harper stood over him. "Now, I will play with you properly."
