I Once Married You (Harper and Benjamin)

Chapter 247 Surprised Paul

Benjamin's gaze softened as he spoke gently, "You should eat more". With a teasing tone, he lifted the spoon and pushed it towards his mouth. Harper frowned, taken aback by his actions. "What are you doing?" she asked. Benjamin shrugged. "What? You don't finish your food, so I am finishing for you."

His voice held a hint of mock grievance.

Blushing slightly, Harper averted her gaze, feeling flustered by his behavior.

After eating, Harper drifted off to sleep. Benjamin stayed by her side the entire time besides making a call to his grandfather.

"Grandpa, Harper is pregnant. Your wish has come true," Benjamin informed him.

"How did you know?" Paul was pretty surprised.

Sensing the subtext in his question, Benjamin questioned, "So you knew all along?"

Paul responded with a sneer, "Harper told me but not you. You should think about why she did that. Since that you know, you should treat Harper better. I do want a great-grandson, but if you can't keep Harper as your wife, your family is still broken." Feeling a surge of emotions, Benjamin fell silent, his gaze fixed on Harper as she slept peacefully. He felt an urge to wake her up and talk to her.
