I Once Married You (Harper and Benjamin)

Chapter 80 Rumored Romance Exposed

Benjamin's face was stern as he said indifferently, "You've had too much to drink."

"I'm not drunk. Don't you love me anymore? How can you be so heartless and ignore me?"

Lauren's words broke into sobs as she looked up at Benjamin's jawline and tiptoed to kiss him.

"Lauren, get in the car. I'll take you home."

Just as she leaned in, Benjamin subtly pushed her away and turned to open the car door, his expression excellent as he motioned for her to get in.

Lauren, noticing his cold detachment, hesitated, especially with Tony and others watching from behind, and reluctantly got into the car.

Unbeknownst to them, a black van was parked by the roadside. Someone inside aimed a camera, capturing the interaction between the two at the perfect angle.

Rue saw Lauren get into the car and quickly said goodbye to Tony. "Mr. Smith, Mr. Martin has come to pick up our Lauren, we'll be leaving now."

Tony's face turned pale as he glared at his assistant. "Didn't you tell me Benjamin had a falling out with her? Why is he here to pick her up now? Are you trying to make Benjamin see me as an enemy and ruin the company?"

He didn't dare to compete with Benjamin.

Rue didn't ride with them; instead, she followed in her car.

Throughout the journey, Lauren was too scared to speak. She sobered up quite a bit, not having drunk much in the first place.

When they arrived back at Maple Apartments, the car came to a smooth stop.

Only then did Lauren turn to Benjamin, whispering, "Benjamin, thanks for bringing me home."

"It's no big deal. Try not to drink so much next time. It's better for a lady to avoid these kinds of damaging social engagements, okay?"

"I understand. I won't do it again."
