I Once Married You (Harper and Benjamin) -
Chapter 442 Prejudice
Annie pouted slightly. "If so, he should support your decision." Harper fell silent.
The atmosphere was quiet for a short while.
Apart from the fact that Frank spoke frankly and bluntly about the matter between her and Benjamin, he seemed to be normal on other issues.
And after the accident, he had talked to her again and again about taking on the responsibility for her as an architect.
At the thought of this, Harper felt moved and mentioned it to Annie.
She said, "I don't know how he treats other people, but he is really nice to me."
Annie furrowed her brow slightly. "Harper, you're directly involved in your relationship with him. Is there a chance you might be overlooking something?"
"Because I don't believe a person can risk everything for his beloved. After all, you will never be with him. You have your husband and family. Why would he shoulder the blame for you? This is not what he should do. Despite his love for you, he is not so selfless, right?" If they were boyfriend and girlfriend or husband and wife, it was understandable that he took her place and faced the consequences out of worry.
But the key was that Harper and Frank were just friends. If he was too fond of her to wish her harm, Annie wondered why he said those harsh and disagreeable things.
She looked at Harper. "Thus, I have always found Frank mysterious. Although we have known each other for so many years, I feel that getting along with him requires scheming, which exhausts me. This is one of the reasons why I have always kept a distance and prejudice against him." Harper stared at Annie blankly.
First of all, she completely trusted Annie because there was no conflict between Annie and her in terms of love or interest. Furthermore, she and Annie were so close that they could share everything except men. Therefore, Annie didn't mean to mislead her or have any other purpose when uttering these words. She just analyzed Frank with her, nothing more.
After a moment of silence, Harper frowned slightly and said, "If that's the case, why did he insist on replacing me as the architect? It would only do him harm, wouldn't it?"
"Who knows?"
Annie shrugged.
Harper was even more confused. "I can't make sense of this, so it is quite peculiar, and I'm reluctant to cast doubt on others' good intentions."
"Maybe he is really nice to you, but I think that sometimes it is not necessarily a pleasant thing. Take this incident for example. If Frank had substituted for you as the architect of this project, it would probably have been another story. After all, a second earlier or later would have led to a different outcome." Annie's words made Harper's face stiffen slightly, and she was at a loss for words.
If she had agreed to Frank's suggestion out of fear, he would have been the architect of this project. She pondered what the situation of the Martin Group would have been.
