Chapter 256 Feel Distant

"Did he tell you?" Harper asked.

Annie said, "No, but his actions speak for everything. Harper, you're done. You've been targeted by him."

Harper rolled her eyes at her and said, "You can go now."

Annie pouted. "Won't you ask me to stay?"

"If I ask you to stay, will you stay?" Harper asked.

"No."

"Then why should I waste my breath?"

The two always made up and argued soon.

Later, Harper sent Annie downstairs, and the car had been arranged. Because Harper was pregnant, Annie insisted on not letting her personally take her to the airport. Harper asked Sophia to send her so that she could feel at ease.

Harper sent Annie to the car, and then they waved goodbye to each other. Harper said, "Be safe and call me when you arrive."

"Okay. Take good care of yourself and my godson. I'll be back after a while."

"Sure."

Harper watched the car leave and noticed the black Mercedes-Benz parked on the opposite side. Through the car window, she saw Larry sitting inside.

She took a look and went upstairs.

Considering Larry's previous behavior, Harper told Benjamin, "Can you call Larry to remind him to stop doing anything childish?"

Benjamin understood what she meant by childish behavior.

He explained, "He won't. He has talked things through with Annie."

"You quite believe him," Harper said and went to accompany Eleanor.

She now didn't know how to get along with Benjamin. Even though they were together, she felt him distant from him.

She cuddled on the couch at Eleanor's apartment. Eleanor looked at her several times, yet she didn't respond. So, Eleanor asked, "Are you here to accompany me?" Harper nodded and said lazily, "Yes."

"What a lame excuse," Eleanor said.

"Grandma!"

"It's getting late, and I need to go to sleep. You should go back."

"Grandma, are you driving me away?"

Eleanor said indifferently, "If that is what you think, then I am."

"Do you like Benjamin?" Harper asked in a low voice, her lips pressed.

Eleanor looked at her and smiled faintly, "What's your point?"

"If you don't like him, why do you keep speaking for him?"

Eleanor didn't answer it but said, "Do you want Benjamin to come and pick you up?"

Harper frowned, looking unhappy, but Eleanor didn't relent. Harper had no choice but to leave.

She pushed the door open and returned to her apartment. Benjamin had showered, and he was sitting on the couch reading a book. Seeing Harperback, he immediately said, "Go take a shower. Then, I'll tell you something about pregnancy.'

Harper's brows furrowed. "Are you experienced?"

Benjamin raised the book and said, "I'm learning and should understand a little better than you."

In his hand was a book about precautions during pregnancy.

An indescribable emotion immediately surged inside Harper, but she didn't say anything. She just

Twenty minutes later, Harper came out of the bathroom, and Benjamin was sitting on the bed waiting for her.

He wore loungewear, no longer looking aggressive and serious during the day. Instead, he looked soft, making Harper feel warm.

Harper stood at the bathroom door, staring at him blankly. Benjamin noticed it and asked, "Why are you standing there?"

"Aren't you going to tell me some precautions?" She said with a frown.

She wore white loungewear, her long hair hanging on her back and her ears. Standing

Perhaps because of her pregnancy, Harper's initially cold face now had a hint of gentleness emanating from within. Benjamin narrowed his eyes and stared at her. Finally, he said in a low and hoarse voice, "Take a seat first."
