I Once Married You (Harper and Benjamin)

Chapter 334 Trust

Lauren's words had barely been spoken when Harper hung up the phone directly.

Her eyes glazed over as she fell into contemplation.

Though Lauren's words weren't entirely trustworthy, the fact that Benjamin had gone to the company early in the morning and Mrs. Eleanor had gone back to sleep seemed like too much of a coincidence. Harper tightly pressed her lips together and immediately got up to leave the office.

She briefed Sophia on the afternoon's tasks before driving straight to the Martin Group.

She had to get things clear about Mrs. Eleanor's situation, or she wouldn't be able to rest easy.

As for what Lauren had said about her neglecting her grandmother for the sake of her unborn child, it was impossible.

Harper arrived at the Martin Group, and Benjamin, being informed of her visit, was already sitting at the desk in the office when she walked in.

He looked at her and softly asked, "Why have you come at this time?"

Their interactions had been rare over the past couple of days, so her coming to the company to find him at this time was unlikely to be normal. But Benjamin always maintained his calm composure, so there was no sign of anything unusual about him.
