I Once Married You (Harper and Benjamin) novel Chapter 554

Chapter 554 Forgive Her?

Benjamin did not respond immediately, and the atmosphere cooled down.

Lauren didn't dare to speak anymore and could only remain silent and wait for his reply.

After nearly half a minute like this, he slowly said in a deep voice, "Take good care of your health. The doctor said that the medicine has side effects. If there is nothing else, I need to leave. I'm still busy with work. Okay?"

He didn't say much, and he didn't say anything about whether he would forgive her.

Lauren thought about it silently. He showed concern about her health, so that meant he had forgiven her, right?

Thinking about this, she immediately felt happy and quickly responded, "Okay, I know. I will take care of myself. You don't have to worry about me. Go to work."

Benjamin didn't say anything more and hung up.

Lauren put down her phone, filled with joy. She thought Benjamin had completely trusted her. After all, he didn't blame her, nor did he say anything out of anger. He even specifically asked her to take good care of her health. Wasn't he giving her a chance?

Thinking of this, Lauren smiled wider.

But did Benjamin really forgive her?

Did he really not mind what she did with Frank at all?

In the office, Benjamin leaned on the leather chair, with a gentle and indifferent expression. No obvious change of mood could be seen in his eyes, so no one could guess how he felt at that moment.

He glanced at the phone on the table, with a hint of indifference and irony.

At this time, there was a knock on the door of the office suddenly. Curtis opened the door and came in. He walked to Benjamin's desk and whispered to him, "Mr. Martin, there is a call from the Martin Manor. Sir Martin asked you when you plan to let your wife leave the villa?"

Benjamin's eyes narrowed slightly, and his deep eyes didn't reveal any of his thoughts.

That handsome and noble face showed a bit of unfathomable indifference, and his voice was aloof. "No need to reply specifically. I will call them."

Benjamin's face turned pale. He was silent for a moment and then asked, "Find out what they talked about. I want to know everything."

Curtis inquired and told Benjamin truthfully, but he didn't say anything after hearing it. The conversation between Michelle and Lauren was only about how Michelle thought about Frank, but it did not clearly explain the relationship was between Lauren and Frank.

But what did Michelle's words mean?

Did she know something?

Benjamin narrowed his deep eyes, with a slightly serious look on his face. After a few seconds of silence, he said calmly, "Send someone to find a way to get close to Michelle. Remember not to be exposed. If there is no way to get close to her, forget it. Don't make her suspicious."

"Michelle is just an arrogant lady, so she shouldn't have any suspicions, right?"

Curtis thought that such an arrogant young lady wouldn't be so good at scheming.

But Benjamin just sneered and asked, "Do you think Frank was really willing to hide and live like a rat after successfully escaping? Or will he find a backer that he could manipulate?"
