I Once Married You (Harper and Benjamin) novel Chapter 406

Benjamin's actions made Harper very angry. He could favor Lauren. He could misunderstand her, but he shouldn't suspect Eleanor.

"This matter is not as you imagine. There are some things I can't explain to you right now. According to my investigation, the man responsible for the accidents a year ago is the husband of the nursing worker, Jorge," he said.

"How can you be sure it's Jorge?" Harper asked.

"Lauren said so. She is the person involved, so I have to investigate," Benjamin replied.

Harper sneered, "So you believe her, thinking that everything she says is true. You found out that Jorge's wife is the nursing worker who took care of Eleanor, so you think this matter is related to Eleanor. Do you also think deep down that I did it? I wanted to marry you so badly that I sabotaged your relationship with Lauren?"

"I didn't think like that," Benjamin said.

"But isn't that what you're implying?" Harper said.

Benjamin frowned and said seriously, "Harper, I hope you can trust me. Many things are not as they seem on the surface, and sometimes I am also at a loss."

"I trust you, but will you trust me?" Harper asked back.

They confronted each other.

Before Benjamin could answer, Harper's phone rang.

She just answered the call when there was a knock on the office door. Curtis then came in.

Harper heard Sophia's anxious voice. "Ms. Mitchell, there has been a collapse at the construction site. The situation is complex. Mr. Parker and I are heading there now. Can you come directly?"

Harper was shocked and instinctively looked at Benjamin.

Curtis didn't wait for Harper to finish the call. He said, "Mr. Martin, something's happened. There was a collapse at the construction site five minutes ago. It has already caused one worker to die on the spot, and we can't determine how many are injured."

"A collapse? What happened?" Benjamin was shocked.

"We don't know yet. We just received news from the media that they are already live at the scene. I have contacted Charlie to do everything possible to protect the scene and call the police. I have also instructed the PR department to issue an emergency statement. This matter may be a bit tricky."

Benjamin glanced at Harper, who said over the phone, "I'll be right there."

She hung up the phone and said, "There has been a collapse at the construction site. We're not sure what caused it."
