Chapter 368 Confrontation
"Otherwise, watching her bully you?"
"Benjamin, you're really kind," Harper said with a smile.
Benjamin snorted lightly, "Now you think I'm kind?"
Harper's smile deepened. She didn't respond to that question. Instead, she said earnestly, "Thank you."
Benjamin didn't reply. He wasn't too keen on hearing those words anyway.
He simply said, "You performed well on the spot today. Your advancement in the preliminary round had nothing
to do with me. It's entirely your own ability. | wasn't involved with the judges at all, so your victory was clean."
Harper fell silent at once.
Benjamin seemed to see through her mind. She had always been worried that her success might be linked to
Benjamin in sway. After all, Harper had prepared for the worst.
Harper remained silent for several seconds, then nodded. "Hmm."
Benjamin glanced at her just as the traffic light turned green. He released his hand from hers, gripping the

He dropped her off at the company and didn't accompany her inside. Benjamin knew she had matters to attend
to, and it wasn't his place to intervene.
Harper stepped out of the elevator into the office. Sophia and the others, along with the livestream content, had
already informed Frank that someone had temporarily stolen Harper's design.
So, as soon as Harper returned, she went straight to find Frank, making sure to close the office door behind her.
Even before Harper could say anything, Frank immediately spoke up. "Sorry, Harper. | had no idea Michelle would
do something like this. I've already called her and asked her to cover immediately." Harper hadn't said
anything yet, but Frank had already cclean.
So he knew Louisa too.
Harper said, "Frank, if you feel uncomfortable with this situation, you don't have to be involved. I'll confront
Michelle on my own, okay?"
"No, don't worry. | won't indulge her this time. She's an adult and should take responsibility for her mistakes.
Besides, this isn't a trivial matter. This is your hard work. | know its importance."

Harper nodded. Since Frank had thought about all this, she didn't need to say much more.
Ten minutes later, Michelle arrived at the company.
She went straight into Frank's office. As soon as she entered, she saw Harper there too. Her expression
immediately soured.
She looked at Frank, displeased, and demanded, "Why is she here too, Frank? Didn't you have something to
discuss with me? Tell her to leave right now, | don't want to see her." "Enough, Michelle. Don't act like a child,
okay?" Frank's voice was cold and indifferent, his gaze stern.
Ever since he had laid hands on Michelle last time, she had
developed a fear of Frank. Moreover, because of the things only the two

Frank asked, "Michelle, did you steal Harper's design and give it to Louisa?"
Michelle was momentarily taken aback, then immediately responded, "Frank, did you callhere just to
interrogateabout this? Is it because of her? Did she tell you to do this?"
Michelle pointed at Harper, her face
full of displeasure. "Harper, what do you mean? Are you deliberately trying to turnagainst my brother? Do
you have any evidence to prove that | did it? If not, then don't spread rumors."
"Is Louisa your friend, right? Her entry design was mine. So besides you, who else could it be?" Harper stared at
her expressionlessly.
Michelle laughed. "Yes, she's my friend. But what evidence do you have to prove that her entry design was
yours? Aren't you just twisting the truth out of jealousy?"
"I don't even know her, why would | be jealous of her?" Harper felt both helpless and amused.
