I Once Married You (Harper and Benjamin)

Chapter 250 Bottom Line

Annie's brow furrowed as she asked, "Are you keeping the baby?"

"This child is mine, and I won't harm my child for any reason," Harper asserted firmly.

Annie's heart skipped a beat at Harper's declaration.

Harper didn't notice the subtle shift in her demeanor. Continuing her explanation, Harper stated, "He doesn't love me, and the presence of the child won't change that. Even if he were to show acts of affection, it would only be because of the child. I'm not foolish enough to mistake that for love."

"I spent one year with him. He didn't love me. Maintaining this marriage won't work out."

Harper's rationality resonated with Annie, prompting a newfound clarity in her thoughts.

With a slight smile, Annie nodded in agreement, "You're right. You are still the same proud woman I know, unwilling to compromise her principles for anyone."

"I wasted one year to be Benjamin just to make him love me, I highly suspect you're mocking me," Harper replied with a wry smile.
