I Once Married You (Harper and Benjamin)

Chapter 221 Bottom Line

Benjamin did not answer immediately. He just stared at her in silence, but even after looking for a long time, he couldn't see anything unusual in her expression.

He snorted and sarcastically said, "If I'm not available, will you give up?"

Harper didn't know why he got angry again.

It was their first conversation today. She felt that he simply didn't want to hear her speak.

Harper fell silent. After giving her a cold glance, Benjamin walked towards the office, and Harper quickly followed.

Entering the office, Harper whispered, "Have you really decided to kick Summit Realty out of this project?"

"Summit Realty has not played any role so far. They just wanted to split the money, and they had already received what they should have received. The project has nothing to do with them. This is the rule." He walked up to the desk and lit a cigarette. Due to his smoking, Harper just stood a few steps away from the desk, not getting any closer.

In Benjamin's view, Harper was intentionally keeping a distance.

His attitude became noticeably cold, and the sharp lines on his face appeared even more tense.

Through the white smoke, Harper glanced at him. "Will I inform them, or will you send someone to send the message?"

"Curtis will contact them. You just need to focus on your tasks. You are now working directly with me, so you need to follow the rules of the Martin Group. You need to report the progress of the project to me every day. I need to see visible results, understand?"

Harper frowned, feeling a bit surprised. She thought, "This project has already passed the most important initial stage, and everything goes smoothly. Why does he still need to check the progress and listen to my report every day?

He is not in charge of this project. Why do I still need to report to him?"

Harper was a little surprised but didn't think much of it.

Benjamin seemed to understand her thoughts and told her, "This project is the one I value this quarter. I don't care what happened before, since it has restarted, you should take it seriously."

"Okay, I understand."

Harper nodded and didn't say anything more. Curtis would notify Summit Realty, so she didn't have to worry about that.

The atmosphere quieted down.

After finishing smoking, he pinched it out and threw it into the ashtray. He looked up at her and asked impatiently, "Do you have something else to say?" Harper snapped out of it and shook her head. "No. I'm leaving now."

After saying that, she planned to leave.This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.

She wouldn't ask Benjamin to help her find Annie. Because Annie was not his friend, he had no duty to help Annie. So she didn't want to force him.

Her temperament had always been

like this. She asked for help once but

didn't get the desired result, and therefore, she wouldn't hold out hope again. Even though it would be very difficult for her to do it herself, she would never bring it up again because her stubbornness and self-esteem did not allow her to do it. It was her bottom line.

However, just as Harper turned around and hadn't taken a step, Benjamin's phone rang.

He picked up and said, "Is Grandpa not angry anymore?"

It was Lily calling.

Lily said, "You'll know when you come back, won't you?"

"Okay, I got it. She happens to be with me, and I will take her with me," Benjamin said calmly.

Lily asked, "What are you saying? I just asked you to come by yourself. I didn't say you needed to come with Harper."

"Okay, Harper will go with me." After saying that, without waiting for Lity's response, he hung up and looked at Harper. "Grandpa misses you and wants to see you."

Harper didn't doubt. She just asked in a low voice, "Now?"
