Fleeing the Gilded Cage: Don’t Want to be the Billionaire’s Wife

Chapter 74

Chapter 74: Solving Problems from the Source Seeing the sudden addition of a phone beside her, Martina was even more surprised. She didn’t expect this man to be willing to put the phone back.

However, she didn’t hesitate at all and took the phone, as if afraid that Benjamin would regret it.

Then, Martina suddenly looked up at him, as if she had thought of something. “You’re givingthe phone. Aren’t you afraid that I’ll contact someone and secretly run away?”

There was indeed the possibility.

Despite being fully aware of this possibility, Benjamin still gave the phone to Martina. Perhaps only Benjamin himself knew how much he struggled internally..

But he didn’t want to see Martina unhappy, sulking in front of him like this. His heart truly ached for her.

At this moment, Benjamin’s fists tightened gradually, and even his voice was very low, with a hint of hoarseness.

“As long as you’re happy, nothing else matters,” he said with a subtle restraint in his tone. It was all because of Martina that he was willing to endure sgrievances.

Martina’s heart was fiercely struck. She couldn’t help but admit that Benjamin’s deep affection at this moment truly shook her.

But when she thought about all her past experiences, no matter how shaken she felt, she swore to herself that she would never turn back.

Once bitten, twice shy. If she were to turn back again, she would be the only one getting hurt.

Martina kept reminding herself of this and dared not look into Benjamin’s eyes anymore. It was as if continuing to look would make her lose control.

“Thanks, but there’s nothing for you to do. You can go out. I want to be alone for al while,” she said.

Benjamin took a deep breath. Even though it seemed like there was something he wanted to say, in the end, he left without saying a word.

Rihanna remained outside. She hadn’t been able to stay by Benjamin’s side all this time, so her understanding of the situation could only cfrom Simon’s account.

However, as a woman and someone who had been through similar experiences, Rihanna could still offer sguidance and advice.

When she saw Benjamin coming out, she could immediately tell from his expression that something was wrong. “Boss, how is it going? Do you needto go in and say something?” she asked. and Miss Martinez are both women. I believe she perhaps listen to what I have to say.”

Benjamin waved his hand as if all his energy had been drained. “No need. If you don’t have anything important, don’t disturb her.”

Then he proceeded step by step to the study. He was no longer the strategic Benjamin. he used to be, at least not in front of Martina anymore.

Rihanna felt a deep sense of pity. Although she only had the typical concern of a subordinate for her boss, now that she had witnessed her boss in this state, various thoughts would inevitably arise in her mind.

Could it be that Miss Martinez had truly changed? What could be the cause of all this? Everything happened for a reason. If they could truly investigate and understand the root cause, perhaps they

could change the outcome.

With this idea in mind, Rihanna took the initiative and called Simon, “Simon, the boss is in a really bad state right now. If things continue like this, it could really beca problem.

And Miss Martinez has been constantly ‘attacking’ him.”

“I think we need to find its true source to solve the problem,” Rihanna continued after a short pause.

Simon’s thought for a moment and asked, “Rihanna, are you suggesting…?”

Rihanna smiled faintly. “Of course, I mean we should search for the information within. this villa. Perhaps we can find something usefull from the workers.”

There were quite a few people who cto work in the villa every day, at least several dozen. Some were responsible for cleaning, sfor handling things outside the yard, and others for cooking. It was always a mix of various tasks, and each person had their own responsibilities.

The only one who had a relatively easier job was the butler, but considering that the butler was a long- standing member of the staff for three generations, such treatment was understandable.

The butler mainly dealt with administrative tasks, such as issuing instructions, while the others followed his arrangements and carried out their duties accordingly.

Even Rihanna could sense that the butler seemed more willing to comply with Elizabeth’s arrangements.

After sconsideration between Rihanna and Simon, they decided to start from that angle. If they could truly investigate and uncover something, it would be a significant project for both of them, and they might even get a raise.

Both of them were full of enthusiasm, especially Simon, who couldn’t wait to retrieve his bonuses. He had made a mistake before, and now he had to make up for it. Otherwise, the boss would definitely have sgrievances against him.

Meanwhile, Martina lay half-reclined on the bed, without even taking off her shoes. She had charged her phone and noticed that nothing was missing from it.

Martina was very uncomfortable with Benjamin’s deliberate explanation, claiming that he had never snooped through her phone.

In fact, her phone had already been taken away, so what difference did it make whether he looked through it or not? There was nothing scandalous on her phone to begin with.

Benjamin’s sudden remark seemed unnecessary.

However, Martina quickly dismissed those scattered thoughts from her mind. She called Elena.

Elena answered almost instantly, “Martina! I heard that Benjamin has returned, and he even brought back everyone who was searching for you. He didn’t happen to bring you back with him, did he?!”

It’s understandable why Elena would think that way. It felt too unbelievable.

Just a moment ago, Benjamin was in a rush to find someone, and now he suddenly returned!

This was obviously abnormal. Either Benjamin had completely given up, or he had already achieved his goal!

Elena had been waiting for Martina’s call all this time, but she hadn’t received it for several days, and she had becextremely worried. She mustered up the courage to call Martina, but her phone was turned off, which made her even more anxious!

Now that she finally received Martina’s call, she definitely wanted to get sanswers. “Martina, why haven’t you been saying anything? I hope nothing has happened to you Please don’t scare me.”

Martina interrupted her, “It’s not that I don’t want to talk, but you have too many questions. I don’t even know where to start.”

Elena asked urgently, “The most important thing is, where are you right now? And why did Benjamin suddenly cback?”

Martina involuntarily tightened her grip on the phone and replied, “I’m… at his home.” With just a few brief words, she answered both questions at once.
