I Once Married You (Harper and Benjamin)

Chapter 124 Your Duty

Benjamin had a high fever after being soaked in water for several hours. Overwhelmed by giddiness, he was too listless to think. Staring at Harper, he said, "I don't want to go to the hospital." Harper said, "If you don't go to the hospital but keep having a fever, it might lead to delirium or confusion."

"Why do I have a fever?" he asked.

Guilt left Harper speechless.

Benjamin added, "My fever started because of you, so you should take care of me until my fever subsides. Harper, we are husband and wife, and it's your duty. Do you agree?" Harper sighed silently and couldn't retort.

Because Benjamin refused to leave, Harper couldn't get rid of him.

After all, it was indeed her mistake. Although she hadn't planned to look after him or invite him to the apartment, once he had arrived intoxicated, she felt a sense of responsibility. Harper's silence softened Benjamin's expression. He spent the whole morning in bed, sleeping most of the time, so the atmosphere was quite pleasant.

Harper cooked two dishes, steak and pumpkin soup, for lunch.
