Chapter 372 Sudden Kiss
Harper had been pregnant for over four months now, and if one didn't know, one couldn't tell, but those in the
know felt her pregnancy weighed heavily on her.
To lighten her workload, Annie took the initiative to handle the revisions of her drawings and also guided Sophia
and the others in their progress.
This allowed Harper to temporarily focus on the projects at the Martin Group.
In the morning, she went to the construction site to hand over the exterior design drawings to Charlie and then
inspected the necessary materials. In the afternoon, she went to the Martin Group to show Benjamin the design
drawings. It had been several days since Harper last visited, so Curtis was surprised to see her, but he still
quickly greeted her and led her to the office.
Harper assumed only Benjamin was inside. So, she smiled, teasingly saying, "Mr. Martin, are you busy? I..."
Before she could finish her sentence, her eyes caught sight of someone else in the office.

She was sitting in Benjamin's chair, and Benjamin, with his hands on the desk, seemed to be talking to her. Both
wore varying degrees of smiles, seemingly enjoying their conversation.
Upon hearing her voice, Benjamin immediately looked up and walked towards her. Harper, however, remained
composed, retracting her gaze and speaking. "Sorry, did | interrupt something?" Stopping in front of her,

at this time?"

"You can cwhenever you want."
He continued to scrutinize her expression, not missing any changes.
Harper pretended not to notice, allowing him to lead her to the sofa.
Dorcas also stood up from the chair, smiling, "Harper, you did great on the spot. Congratulations on passing the
preliminaries."
"Thank you, but there's still a lot to improve," Harper responded graciously, with a calm smile.
Their eyes met briefly. Dorcas spoke again. "Benjamin, you talk with Harper first. I'll go grab a coffee."
"Sure, if you're not familiar with the way, you can ask Curtis to have someone go with you."
"Okay."
Dorcas waved to Harper. "I'll leave first, Harper. See you next time, bye."
"Okay, take care, bye!"
Only when Dorcas left did Harper's polite smile fade, leaving behind a blank expression.

Harper was amused, saying, "I thought you liked hearing the truth."

Harper felt a shadow and Benjamin's lips pressing down on her, cutting off her breath.
She was pressed against the sofa, with no chance to retreat.
All Benjamin's movements were
