I Once Married You (Harper and Benjamin)

Chapter 533

Chapter 533 An Olive Branch

The internet is a vast world where news, once fermented, becomes common knowledge.

Annie woke up early to a flood of notifications, compounded by Sophia's constant calls. She knew the details without even checking the trending searches.

She was stunned for a few minutes, unable to calm her mind. Although Benjamin was no one to her and had no direct connection, he was involved with Harper. Harper was the most important person to her, more than anyone else.

So, she couldn't stand it, nor could she pretend nothing had happened.

Up to this point, Harper had been missing for five days.

Before this incident, she might have been able to hold back, for Harper's safety, to keep him from being disturbed by Frank. But now, she couldn't restrain herself.

Annie got out of bed with a blank expression, freshened up, changed clothes, and then left her apartment.

She drove aimlessly through the streets, eventually parking her car in front of the Ellison Group building.

Sitting in her car, she pondered in silence for a long time before finally forcing herself to open the door and get out.

It took a lot of courage for her to walk into the Ellison Group's building.
