Chapter 511 Risk
Harper's words startled Angie instantly. The very idea of Harper dismantling the camera herself was fraught with worry.
Yet, it was clear that Harper left no room for doubt. She was poised for action, already searching for a chair to remove the device. Angie tried to stop Harper, who refused. "Angie, I won't put you in a difficult position. If you're uncertain, just call him and ask if he should send someone to remove it, or should I do it myself?"
Harper looked around and said indifferently, "Is there no privacy left in this villa, right? Must you monitor every step I take? Or perhaps you think I might harm my baby? You've already coerced me using Eleanor's safety. What more do you want from me?"
Whether Benjamin could hear her or not, Harper seemed determined to vent the emotions she had been suppressing.
Taking a deep breath, she fixed the camera with a piercing stare as if challenging Benjamin directly.
Angie had no choice but to intervene. "Mrs. Martin, please calm down. I'll find a way. Just give me a moment."
Harper said nothing, but her resolve was clear.
Left with no other choice, Angie hurried outside to consult with the bodyguards. Almost immediately, Curtis' phone buzzed.
Curtis looked at Benjamin and said, "It's the bodyguard."
"Just answer it and do as she wishes."
Benjamin reached out and turned off the computer.
Now that Harper had discovered the camera, there was no need to continue monitoring her. Benjamin hadn't intended to monitor her like some prisoner.
His initial concern had been for the safety of the unborn child.
But that concern had faded.
Benjamin knew Harper would be the last person to harm the baby.
After all, the baby was his as much as it was hers.
