Chapter 534 I Need to See Her

Annie found it odd that Larry had come down himself when he could have easily sent his secretary or asked the front desk to let her go up directly. She kept the question to herself and followed him into the elevator.

The elevator was quiet, with only the three of them inside, creating an especially awkward atmosphere.

Larry's gaze occasionally flickered to Annie as he broke the quiet. "You came because of Harper's issue, didn't you?"

Annie didn't deny it. She nodded, then asked, "I saw the news online. Is it true about Benjamin and Lauren?"

Larry's brow furrowed slightly. He had suspected her visit was due to this issue, but hearing her confirm it aloud still unsettled him, evoking a sense of loss he couldn't quite explain.

He managed a faint smile and responded softly, "It's probably not true. Knowing him as I do, he wouldn't have that kind of relationship with Lauren. If he really wanted to be with Lauren, he could have just divorced Harper." Annie nodded, understanding his point.

When the elevator doors opened, the three of them walked out and headed directly to his office. The secretary tactfully chose not to follow them inside.

Now alone with Larry in his office, he gestured for her to sit and poured her a glass of water, placing it in front of her.

Annie, facing him with a softer tone than usual as if trying to make amends, said, "I want to know where Harper is. She's been out of touch for several days now. If there really wasn't anything wrong, I can't imagine she would just cut off contact. Could it be something to do with Frank? Did Benjamin do something to her?"
