I Once Married You (Harper and Benjamin)

Chapter 58 Ms. Mitchell

In the conference room, Harper projected the artwork onto the big screen. She addressed Charlie Kerr, the representative of the Martin Group, "The artwork encompasses exterior, interior, and landscaping designs. Could you please review it for any necessary modifications?"

Harper's design was sophisticated, blending novelty with classical elements seamlessly.

Charlie, an experienced professional, scrutinized the drawings meticulously, finding no faults.

He raised a few inquiries, and Harper responded confidently, demonstrating her thorough preparation.

Charlie nodded in satisfaction. "I'm pleased with it, but I'll need to submit it for approval from our superiors. This project has garnered significant attention and is one of the most anticipated buildings in Mayby this year. Is that okay for you, Ms. Mitchell?"

Harper replied calmly, "Of course not, this is standard procedure."

The Summit Realty representative remained silent throughout the discussion, recognizing the professional nature of their conversation. Although Summit Realty was involved in the design, some intricacies still eluded them.

After the review, Harper offered her own insights on the drawings. As they conversed, the conference room door swung open, drawing everyone's attention. Several people looked at him at the same time. The one who was entering was a tall man with striking features.

Charlie greeted him promptly, "Mr. Martin, you've arrived just in time. We were discussing the project."

The Summit Realty representative introduced himself courteously, "Hello, Mr. Martin, I'm the representative from Summit Realty."

Benjamin acknowledged the introduction with a slight nod, his gaze directed towards Harper, who sat quietly.

Charlie said, "Mr. Martin, this is the architect, Ms. Mitchell."

"Hello, Ms. Mitchell," Benjamin greeted, his voice low and husky, his demeanor gentle.

Harper rose to her feet, meeting his gaze. "Hello, Mr. Martin."

This encounter marked their first formal meeting outside.
