"Are you just going to explain to me and Paul? Who else do you think you should explain to? Do you feel sorry for Harper?"Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
Benjamin did not answer this question but simply said, "If there is nothing else that concerns you, I'm going to hang up now, Mom."
By the time Benjamin finished his speaking, Lily was in the middle of an attempt to stop him, and then the cell phone was in Harper's hand.
She gave Lily a reassuring look, then raised the phone to her ear and asked in a low voice, "Benjamin, if you and Lauren are really together, you can tell me directly. I won't hurt my child because of what you've done. But if you just keep quiet and hide it from me, don't you think that's too unfair?"
Beep, beep, beep...
As soon as Harper was done talking, Benjamin hung up the phone.
She didn't get any answer.
It's like he can't stand her voice.
Harper pursed her lips slightly, smiling, but her heart was filled with bitterness.
She didn't want to show her emotions, so she just looked at everyone calmly and said, "Since he promised to talk about it after he finished the work, let's just leave him alone.
"Harper..."
"Lily, just don't...I'd rather not talk about it anymore, if you don't mind." She cut in and changed the subject, saying, "You can have lunch here, the servant is already preparing it. I haven't had a meal with so many people in the past few days, is that okay?" Her eyes were brimming with anticipation, and it was impossible to say no.
Annie could tell she was in a bad mood. She seemed fine on the surface, but in reality, she was just trying to hide the sad feelings in her heart. Annie just looked at Harper. However, considering that Lily and Larry were still there, she decided to hold off on asking any more questions. The meal was lovely, and they all just enjoyed each other's company without mentioning what had just happened.
After dinner, Lily said to Harper, "My dear, pack your things. Let's get out of here."
Harper just smiled and replied, "Lily, I didn't have anything with me when I came here."
That meant she didn't need to pack. She did have some clothes here, but she didn't need them at the moment. "Then let's go." Lily said directly.
Lily was about to leave with Harper, but the bodyguard wouldn't let her go.
He informed Lily, "Madam, without Mr. Martin's permission, we are unable to allow Ms. Harper Martin to leave here."
"Oh, 'Mr. Martin'? But I am Mr. Martin's mother. Now, tell me, is Mr. Martin more important, or am I, his mother?"
This was the third time Lily had gotten angry today, all because of Benjamin. Thanks to him, her elegant, gentle image was ruined.
But no matter what she said, the
bodyguard only gave a negative response. It seemed that they would rather be beaten up by Lily than let them go.
Lily sighed heavily, then she turned to Larry and said, "Give them an order."
Larry smiled and said, "Mrs. Lily Martin, could I have a quick word with them?"
"Okay, go ahead and push them."
Lily went back to the villa. Larry was fully aware of the situation and immediately contacted Benjamin.
It seemed like Benjamin was waiting
for his call, too. As soon as he
I
answered, he asked, "Larry, what did
say about guarding the villa? Did you do what I asked? You di I You even brought my mother and Annie there. Has Annie bewitched you? So you said yes to whatever she asked. Do you know what you look like?"
"What?" Larry responded quickly, knowing Benjamin was mad now.
Benjamin said coldly, "Like a loyal, obedient dog. I believe I can send Annie back to Dattlech right away, and you won't be able to see her in you
Mayby for a long time. What do you think?"
