Chapter 212 Prepared Lunch

She sat rigidly in the chair for a long time, unresponsive, her mind a chaotic mess. Every response from Benjamin echoed words she had once said to him.

In the vast city of Mayby, finding someone was difficult. Harper was unfamiliar with Mayby, and she had almost no connections, making many things inconvenient. But Benjamin held grudges, so there was no chance of reconciliation with him.

Harper took a deep, silent breath and then said calmly, "Okay, I understand. It's my fault for bringing this up. You're right. We're about to be divorced, and Annie is my friend, not yours. You have no obligation to help me. I've asked for too much."

She convinced herself with calm, rational thoughts. She couldn't always impose on others, as it would ultimately be embarrassing for everyone involved.

After speaking, Harper stood up. She looked at Benjamin and said softly, "I've had enough to eat, so I'll be going now."

With one last deep look at Benjamin, she turned and walked away.

As Harper was about to leave the restaurant, his voice, unhurried and precise, rang out. "So am I just a tool for you to use and discard when no longer useful?" Harper stopped in her tracks.

She turned to glance at Benjamin, who sat composedly, his displeasure evident in his tone.
