I Once Married You (Harper and Benjamin) novel Chapter 412

​Harper did not dare to tell Benjamin of this idea. Someone had already brought it up online, so it was only natural that Benjamin would think of it.​

If there were problems, it would be a massive loss for the Martin Group.

With a cold face, the more Harper pondered about it, the more solemn she became.

At that moment, Frank knocked on the office door. "Harper, are you free now?"

Harper subconsciously glanced at Annie, who rolled her eyes and mouthed, "The annoying man is here. I'm going out now."

Harper smiled helplessly before replying, "Yes."

Frank pushed the door open and came in, while Annie ignored him and went out as if she hadn't seen him.

Annie and Frank had known each other for many years, but she had never been friendly to him. Moreover, she told Harper clearly, "If you are going to be with him, don't invite me when you go on dates or have dinner together. I don't want to see him."

Back then, Harper joked, "Won't you attend supposing that it is our wedding?"

"If you'd like me to be present at your wedding, don't marry him. I'll even support you to marry a stranger on the street."

"No way!"

At the thought of this, Harper got used to Annie's attitude towards Frank.

Frank nodded at Annie, but she didn't respond. To be precise, she turned a blind eye to him.

Embarrassed, Frank asked in a low voice, "Is Annie dissatisfied with me?"

"No. Don't overthink. She has such a bad temper. She was angry with me just now!" Harper replied. Frank didn't dwell on it any further.

She asked, "What's the matter?"

Frank said, "I want to talk to you about the Martin Group."

"Go ahead."

"When such a serious incident happened, did the Martin Group pick on you?"

"No. What prompted that question?"

Harper was puzzled.

Frowning, Frank whispered, "I just found some netizens discussing whether it was the architect's fault because the Martin Group has never faced such issues before. Harper, I'm worried that public opinion will attack you."

Harper fell silent.

Frank added, "Judging from the current situation, some were killed or injured. The affair is too serious to be brought to an easy conclusion. Someone will definitely be held accountable. If it is really pointed at you, will Benjamin have you bear the blame? After all, he couldn't risk the Martin Group, so..."

"I understand what you mean. If so, I will take the responsibility. After all, I am considered the person in charge of this project. It may have been tampered with due to my negligence."

Harper wondered whether Benjamin would indeed hold her responsible for it, as Frank had suggested, once public opinion shifted against her.
