I Once Married You (Harper and Benjamin)

Chapter 395



Chapter 395 Super Daddy

"Mr. Martin, I find it a bit odd. It shouldn't be easy to track someone down, especially someone like Mayby, but we've managed to find a clear target so quickly this time."

Benjamin got into the car with an expressionless face, driving with one hand while holding his phone with the other, his eyes faintly detached. He ordered, "First, find the person for me. As for the rest, it will all become clear once we find them." "Alright, I understand." Curtis nodded in response.

Just as he was about to ask Benjamin if there were any other instructions, Benjamin, in an unclear mood, asked, "Can you check with Lauren's psychologist whether she really has been attending her sessions on time?"

Curtis was supposed to have asked this yesterday, but the task was put on hold because they had to find Harper.

Asking the psychologist was to clarify whether Lauren was telling the truth or not.

Curtis' words had sown doubts in Benjamin's mind.

Ending the call, Benjamin pressed the accelerator, heading towards the Martin Group's headquarters.

The Martin Group, in partnership with the Madison Group, had secured a plot of land on the west side of Mayby. The land had been vacant for a long time, and inside sources revealed that Mayby would start developing the west side this year, with additional support and aid for businesses involved in the development.

Thus, the plan was to build a shopping mall and office spaces on this plot.

Everything was in preparation, waiting for the architectural design competition to conclude before recruiting partners and starting construction.

Lately, Benjamin has been discussing with Dorcas how to manage this land to ensure it brings future profits to the company.

Upon reaching the office, Dorcas was already glaring at him.

She knew Benjamin had accompanied Harper for a prenatal checkup and hadn't expected it to take all morning, so upon seeing Benjamin, she couldn't help but say, "Benjamin, once Harper has the baby, will you also be setting aside time for the child? Perhaps becoming a super dad who holds meetings with baby in arms?"

Dorcas smiled faintly, a touch of bitterness fleeting through her heart, but it vanished quickly.

Just like she had told Harper, she was content with her feelings, never intending to disrupt, maintaining her moral principles and upbringing.

Benjamin pondered her words and seemed to find nothing objectionable, a slight smile curving his thin lips, and said, "Of course."

His response deepened the shock in Dorcas' eyes, but she said no more, simply smiling faintly as she began her work.

That evening, Harper and Annie arrived first at the Silver, the private room reserved by Benjamin.

The manager led them to the room and then asked, "Mrs. Martin, would you like the dishes served now or later?"

"Later, he hasn't arrived yet."

Harper smiled in response, and the manager, understanding, left them to chat without further interruption.

Annie set down her purse and

casually took a seat on the sofa,

turning to face Harper, and said, "It's

quite formal of you to invite me to dinner like this, which I'm not particularly used to it."

"Thank you for covering for me at work recently."

"Can I get paid for that now? Transfer or cash?"

As she made a motion to take out her phone, Harper playfully tossed a pillow into her lap.

Harper added, "After you help me out this time, the next time you come might be when I'm giving birth."

"I got it, Ms. Mitchell. When you go

he

on maternity leave, just hand the company over to me. I'll make sure to take everything for myself

QUMS

Harper said calmly, without a hint of concern, "Thank you for that."

They were chatting when the door to their private room opened, and Benjamin entered.

He greeted them warmly. "Sorry to keep you waiting."

"Not at all. We just got here ourselves."

"Shall I have them start serving the dishes?" Benjamin asked.

Harper looked to Annie, who seemed indifferent, and then replied, "Sure."

The three of them took their seats, and the dishes began arriving one after another.

The cuisine in Dattlech is known for its heavy flavors, while Mayby's tends to be more on the delicate side. Harper, having grown up in Dattlesh, shares Annie's preference for more heavy tastes, but being pregnant, she needed to stick to milder dishes.

However, the table was set with both robust and mild dishes to cater to everyone.
