Chapter 196 Negotiation
Sophia told this to the representatives, but they still wanted to cause trouble. They called their boss Edward and told him what Harper meant. Hearing this, Edward didn't give any reply. He just asked them to go back to the company.
Edward didn't dare to push Harper at the moment, because she was Benjamin's wife. He didn't quite understand what the couple were doing even now.
He didn't dare to act rashly until he knew something, otherwise, he would offend someone he shouldn't have offended, and the consequences would be terrible. Finishing talking to Sophia on the phone, Harper walked into the apartment. Then Sophia texted her that the representatives of Summit Realty had left.
But the matter was not completely resolved.
When Harper returned to the apartment, Annie was still sleeping.
Harper went to the balcony with her cell phone and called Charlie. She asked Charlie, "Is the Martin Group really not planning to continue this project at the moment?"
"Harper, shouldn't you know the reason better than me? I still don't know what's going on. Because the project was suspended, even my competitor, the deputy director of the project department oppressed me. I'm having a hard time in the Martin Group now, but Mr. Martin hasn't given any reply, so I can't receive any news."
From Charlie's words, Harper could recognize his helplessness.
In just a moment, Harper suddenly asked herself, "Did it all happen because of me? Was Benjamin not satisfied with me so that he stopped the project?"
She even thought, "If I had done as what Benjamin said, there wouldn't have been so many people being implicated, would it?"
Harper thought regretfully. The more she thought about it, the more depressed she became.NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.
Annie woke up at this time. Seeing Harper standing alone on the balcony, Annie walked over and leaned on her shoulder gently. She asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?"
"Do you think my decision to divorce from Benjamin was wrong?"
"Do you regret it?"
Annie didn't inquire about any reason other than her thoughts.
Harper shook her head.
She didn't regret it, and she just didn't want to implicate innocent people.
Annie smiled lightly, "If you don't regret it, then you don't need to think about it." Harper also smiled slightly.
After lunch, Harper accompanied Annie to go shopping.
They played until they came back in the evening after dinner.
Early the next morning, Harper went to the

had to be in charge of the company.
Not long after Harper arrived at the company, someone from Summit Realty came over again.
It was David, the previous project manager of Summit Realty, and it was David who dealt with Harper throughout the entire project.
Although there was no conflict net
David was relatively snobbish and complaisant, especially after he learned about Harper and Benjamin's identities.
David looked at Harper with a smile. "Mrs. Martin, when do you think we can continue the project?"
Harper said, "I can't give you an accurate answer yet, because it's not me who has the final say."
"But Mr. Martin just stopped the project suddenly without any explanation. As his wife, you must know the reason." "I'm not an employee of the Martin Group, so I don't have the right to know it."
David smiled, "So you mean the project is just gone?"
"I didn't say that."
"Mrs. Martin, I'm just an employee. Please don't embarrass me. If you don't give me an explanation today, I won't leave."
Harper was very helpless. "Shouldn't you be the one embarrassing me now?"
"Mrs. Martin, do you not want
Summit Realty to run this project, so you are cooperating with Mr. Martin deliberately to deal with us randomly? Why don't you call Mr.
in in front of me to make it clear? In this way, it will be easier for me to report to Mr. Wilson."
In the end, Harper had no choice but to call Benjamin's secretary office in front of David.
Harper asked softly, "Hello, may I speak to Mr. Martin?"
