Chapter 539 Internal Strife

"I believe you, Benjamin, I really do. I know you have the skills and ability, but can you hear me out first?"

Larry felt like an innocent bystander caught in the crossfire.

Seeing Benjamin fall silent, Larry hurriedly explained, "I admit, it was Annie's request that I couldn't refuse, but it's been days and Harper hasn't shown up. Don't you think the Martin family might start suspecting something? What if Sir Martin steps in and hurts himself? Right now, it's good that Mrs. Martin knows the situation. If you don't want Harper to leave just yet, let me speak to Mrs. Martin, alright?"

Benjamin didn't respond immediately, his deep-set eyes gazing into the distance, his face tense since hearing Harper's voice.

Nobody knew how he felt when he heard Harper's questioning.

Just thinking about it made his brow furrow, his noble aura turning noticeably colder as he said in a low voice, "It's not time yet. She's safer here than anywhere else."

Larry sensed Benjamin's displeasure and assured, "Don't worry, I know what to do."

After ending the call, Benjamin's absorbed expression remained unrelaxed for a long time.

Harper's questioning echoed in his ears; she must be blaming him.

Because of his promise to Benjamin, Larry had to be honest with Harper. She didn't ask why, nor did she understand why Benjamin was doing this.
