Harper instructed Sophia not to inform the other two guys, not because she suspected them, but because the
fewer people who knew, the better.
After she explained the situation to Curtis, he immediately contacted the person in charge at the competition
venue. Within minutes, the person in charge opened the surveillance footage for Harper to review. The prime
suspect turned out to be the staff member who delivered the fruit. However, upon investigation, it was revealed
that this staff member was an imposter and not part of the competition staff.
The person was disguised with a hat and deliberately kept the back to the cameras. It seemed impossible to
identify the culprit.
Harper understood that she was out of luck.
The person in charge promptly arranged for a new resting room for her, but Harper chose to stay alone for a
while.
Annie offered to accompany her, but Harper declined, stating she just needed squiet time.
Annie, concerned, glanced at her before following Sophia and the others to the new resting room.

The two other guys soon found out about the incident, which cast a somber atmosphere in the room.
Sophia was overwhelmed with guilt and self-blame. "It's all my fault. | should have been more vigilant. It's all on
a
Although Annie was unfamiliar with Sophia, she still believed her. After all, Harper shared the computer password
with Sophia. She comforted Sophia. "This was a premeditated mishap. Even if you had kept an eye on the
computer, they would have found another way." "But..."
"The one suffering the most right now is Harper. She's pregnant and has put in so much effort and tfor this.
She's almost put all her work on hold because of this. You all need to stay calm and support her in her decisions
going forward."
The three nodded in agreement, acknowledging Annie's words.
As the competition drew near,
Harper's work had been wiped clean
from the computer. Though it,
remained in her mind, recreating it seemed impossible.
Harper pondered calmly, "Can | present my designs in a different way without the sketches?"
Suddenly, the door to the resting room swung open.
Benjamin stood in the doorway. Harper turned instinctively as their eyes met. Benjamin's expression reflected a
hint of urgency.
Surprised, Harper asked, "Benjamin, why are you here?"
Her voice was soft, but her face was pale, and her gaze was reflecting resignation.
Benjamin gazed at her intently, stepping inside and closing the door.
He then sat beside Harper without a word, enveloping her in a gentle embrace.
Harper felt like crying from his actions. Initially, she was just feeling a bit irritated, but overall, her emotions were
in check.
However, Benjamin's actions left her at a loss for words, a hint of warmth wrapping around her heart.

Benjamin spoke in a low tone. "It's okay, I've got everything under control. I've already instructed Curtis to do
everything possible to find out who the imposter staff member is. Also, e arranged for a computer expert to
cand fix the
computer, so it won't delay your competition. So, don't worry or be afraid, okay?"
Harper nodded gently and whispered, "Is it convenient for you to cat this time?"
"Are you still worried about my convenience at a tlike this? It seems like you really have nothing to worry
about," Benjamin chuckled.
Harper just sighed, "The situation
has already happened, even if we
are anxious, there is nothing we can do to fix it. | just feel a bit embarrassed, after all, the three
colleagues at the company have et
been working so hard withfor so long if everything ends up in vain, it would be very disappointing. It feels
like we've put in a lot of effort without any reward. If we lose a competition, | would accept it, but the problem
now is that issues have arisen even before the competition has started, so it feels unfortunate."
