I Once Married You (Harper and Benjamin)

Chapter 70 Aren't You Afraid of Death?

Benjamin's expression was grave as his sharp gaze passed indifferently over Lauren, then he stood up. "Lauren, Curtis has found an apartment today. You'll move in tomorrow. Have the servants help you pack your things in the evening, alright?"

With that, he walked out of the dining room.

Lauren exclaimed excitedly, "Benjamin, are you going to abandon me and kick me out?"

But all she received was the man's silent response.

Harper watched the man's back, a wave of sadness washing over her. After all, he still couldn't bear to be too harsh on Lauren.

A self-deprecating arc involuntarily appeared at the corner of her mouth, and the indifference in her eyes grew stronger. However, Lauren directed all her dissatisfaction towards Harper, glaring fiercely. "Harper, you schemed against me." "Don't look at me like that, or I can't guarantee that I won't expose this matter to let your fans see your true colors." Harper warned coldly, a coldness emanating from her exquisite and beautiful face.

Lauren ran fell silent, but her eyes were filled with deeper hatred.

Harper picked up a wet wipe from the table, wiped her hands, and then stood up to leave the dining room.

Initially, she had considered exposing this matter to expose Lauren's innocent image to everyone, but upon careful consideration, she realized that this might not entirely convince the public. Instead, it might make her even more transparent. She didn't want to attract so much attention to herself, so she decided to let only Benjamin know.

But Harper wasn't naive enough to make Benjamin completely fall out with Lauren over this matter. After all, it was not easy to change one's feelings for someone they loved.

She just wanted Lauren to move out of the villa. She didn't want to share the same roof with Lauren.

Now that her goal was achieved, she didn't want to pursue it any further.

As for Nathan, he had been cautious since Lauren invited her to the hotel. The call she made afterward was to Julie. Julie had direct evidence of Nathan taking pills, enough to implicate the Lynch family, so he dared not disobey.

With this matter concluded, Harper didn't feel relieved; instead, she felt a bit weary.
