I Once Married You (Harper and Benjamin)

Chapter 498 Stalemate

His kiss was fierce, and it lasted for so long that Harper almost suffocated.

Because he was too forceful and even bit her at the end, her lips became red and painful.

Harper gasped for air, glaring at him. "Why did you bite me?"

"What were you thinking? I called you, and you didn't even hear me. Harper, where did you and Annie go today? What made you space out even when I was just on the phone?"

Her lips were red and swollen from the kiss, looking even more moist in the light.

He looked at her lips, feeling dry in his mouth, a surge of desire running through him, but in the end, he controlled himself.

Harper stubbornly refused to give in. "I said, I just went out with Annie for a bit. Do I have to report to you wherever I go? I wasn't spacing out. I just didn't want to disturb you while you were on the phone. Wasn't Curtis talking to you about Lauren? She wanted to see you so badly. Why didn't you agree?"

Harper showed her displeasure and annoyance, wanting to change the topic quickly to get Benjamin's attention off her.

But her words only made Benjamin more irritated, "You want me to agree to her request?"

"I don't. I just want to know why you wouldn't agree."
