NovelEnglishChapter 285 Bon Voyage But she hadn't been silent long before Benjamin called.
On the phone, Benjamin said, "I'm leaving Mayby in the evening for a business trip to Teninus." "Are you leaving tonight?" "Yes." "Okay. How long are you going to be?" He said in a low voice, "Two or three days." Harper said, "Okay." And then they went quiet.
After a few seconds, Benjamin whispered, "There's nothing more you want to say?" "Bon voyage?" He laughed out loud, and the sound of it reaching her ears through the cell phone left her subconsciously stunned.
She thought, "What's so funny about that?" "Is it funny?" She asked.

Maybe I'm the one with the problem." His tone spilled instantly into displeasure. Then, he said coldly, "Why don't you move back into the Martin Manor for the few days I'm traveling? It just so happens that my mom misses you. She and Grandpa would be happiest to see you back." "I'll visit them, but I don't want to move there. It's too much of a hassle and not very convenient. I can take care of Grandma if I live in the apartment, so that's it." Since she had said so, Benjamin didn't insist.
However, he still instructed her, "It's better to let the driver take you to and from work." "Okay. I got it. So do you have any more arrangements?" "Arrangements?" He grunted, the displeasure in his voice heavier. "Harper, you think I'm making arrangements? I'm being concerned about you. Tsk!" Harper stopped talking.
She thought, "I can never seem to talk my way out of him, not at all." After so many interactions, the only conclusion Harper could cto was that silence was the best response.
As long as she didn't say anything, she was a winner.
The call went on for several minutes. Finally, Benjamin cup with a purpose. "You organize my clothes for the business trip." "Why?" "What do you think?" "Benjamin, I'm pregnant." "Nice. She now knows to retortwith being pregnant," Benjamin thought.
Benjamin smiled and said gently, "You cannot helppack. But since you've been pregnant, we..." "Okay, I'll get your luggage organized ahead of time. Will you be back to pick it up yourself when the tcomes or will Curtis cand get it?" "I'll go back and get it myself. We booked a late flight. I'll have dinner with you tonight before I leave." "Okay, I'll talk to Angie ahead of tand have her make dinner." Harper finished and hastily found an excuse to hang up the phone.
Even though the two of them were now living together, Benjamin really hadn't had sex with her, not even with ve words full of implications like the ones he'd just said. So, all of a sudden, she was at a bit of a loss as to what to do. But they were still married now, and something was justified.
It was just that there was always a feeling in her heart that she couldn't put her finger on.
She was well aware that schanges had taken place between them, and it was probably impossible to go back to the way nothing had happened.

Harper had Benjamin's luggage all ready for him before he returned. She was very skilled at such things, as she had organized it many times in the year she had been married to Benjamin. But it was the first tshe'd done so since the two of them proposed divorce. Harper broke a sweat after organizing the luggage. Not knowing if it was her pregnancy or not, she felt like her body temperature was little higher than normal. And she sweated with the slightest movement.
Since she was the only one in the bedroom, she just took off her loungewear and was left with just sports bra, revealing her slightly bulging belly. But her waist and arms were the sas before she was pregnant.
Harper stretched out with her face toward the window, not noticing that Benjamin had returned at somem point. He was standing in the EM! doorway with the bedroom door pushed open and watching her. Her skin was delicate, and it looked even more so against the black sports bra.
Benjamin narrowed his eyes slightly and closed the door directly behind him before walking towards her and taking her into his arms from behind.
