I Once Married You (Harper and Benjamin)

Harper coldly laughed, exasperated, "I don't know either. But other than the excuses he's given, I can't think of why he would do such a thing."

"Harper, don't blame yourself and don't overthink it. It's not your fault. Even if he did it for you, what difference does it make? You didn't force him to do it, nor did you imply for him to do it.

"Harper!" Annie sharply interjected, "Don't say that. I've already said, it's not your fault. This is all Frank's doing. Let's go tell Benjamin right now, and let Benjamin make a decision."

"No!" Harper immediately grabbed Annie's hand, shaking her head. "I don't know how to tell him. I haven't thought it through. If he finds out, will he blame me?"
