Chapter 81
Chapter 81: Would He Believe It?
From this perspective, the appearance of Amy being beaten could be seen clearly. However, would Benjamin believe it?
At this moment, Benjamin’s entire face was as cold as ice, and his whole body was enveloped in a darkness as if just emerging
from hell, and anyone who came here would probably shiver involuntarily.
His gaze, like burning torches, fell on Martina’s body, devoid of any friendliness.
Looking at his current appearance, it was as if he was about to stand up for Amy in the next second.
Martina cynically curled her lips, not holding any hope for Benjamin at all.
“Yes, I did it, I hit her. What are you going to do about it?” Martina intentionally admitted without any remorse.
Anyway, she just wanted to make Benjamin detest her, so she might as well take this opportunity to settle it once and for all.
After saying this, Martina closed her eyes with disappointment, as if she didn’t want to look at Benjamin anymore. Even without
thinking, she could guess what kind of scene would unfold next.
Elena was indignant, probably thinking that Benjamin would unconditionally stand by Amy’s side. In her mind, she marked
numerous “X” marks for Benjamin; this kind of man really wasn’t worth it.
Fortunately, her friend had decided to calm down. Otherwise, staying with a man like him would eventually lead to her demise.
Elena stood vigilantly shoulder to shoulder with Martina, despite her own fears, firmly holding her ground.
There was a strong sense that if Benjamin dared to make a move, she would fight back. with all her might.
Benjamin was so smart, how could he not see through all of this?
So in Martina’s eyes, did she really not trust herself and believe that he would unconditionally choose someone else?
Benjamin’s gaze grew even darker. Just how terrible were his previous actions to give Martina such a misconception?
Just when Amy also thought that Benjamin would unconditionally help her, the situation suddenly underwent a drastic change.
He asked, “Does it hurt?”
Unexpectedly, upon hearing these words, Martina blinked in confusion and opened her eyes. She saw Benjamin standing right in
front of her, with only a short distance between
them. It felt as if a gentle touch could bring them into each other’s embrace.
Martina subconsciously took a half-step back, deeply piercing Benjamin’s heart.
Benjamin had intended to touch Martina’s palm with his hand, but suddenly froze in place.
“Since you’re concerned, then quickly take her back, so I don’t have to beat her even harder later,”
Martina looked at Benjamin mockingly and said. “This is your brother’s sister, the future princess selected by your mother. Don’t
let me damage her.”
Elena’s heart ached even more, and she instinctively tightly held Martina’s hand. Just how much pressure had Martina endured
to be forced into this state?
She didn’t even want the most basic explanation. Even if she had been misunderstood by Benjamin all along, was she willingly
accepting it?
After Martina finished speaking and took a half-step back, she held Elena’s hand and intended to leave. Regardless, she didn’t
want to involve her best friend.
But in the next second, Benjamin firmly stood in front of Martina again, without any hesitation, holding Martina’s other hand. “I’m
asking you, does your hand hurt?”
In that moment, everyone was stunned.
Martina couldn’t even believe her own ears. She had never imagined that one day Benjamin would ask her with such an attitude
whether her hand hurt after hitting someone.
Amy remained frozen in place, unable to believe everything she had heard. Tears. dripped down, as if she was once again
deeply wronged! “Benjamin... What did you just ask her? She hit me, pushed me to the ground. How could her hand hurt?” She
said, heartbroken.
She had thought that no matter what, Benjamin would show some pity and consideration for Adam’s sake, but unfortunately, the
final outcome was disappointing.
He didn’t even bother to look at Amy more than a glance, and spoke again as if to explain, “Amy is not my girlfriend. I have
nothing to do with other people’s thoughts. I came here not for anyone else.”
Saying such ruthless words in front of Amy struck her like thunder, even the most shameless person would find it unbearable.
She felt as if her heart had completely shattered at that moment.
had Benjamin suddenly undergone such a drastic change? Why could he be rds her because of Martina?
rtina was naive, she finally understood the meaning behind those words; she ant to believe It. Surprisingly, Benjamin chose to
stand behind her and support first time unconditionally.
Elena seemed to be frozen by the intense coldness emanating from Benjamin, unable to utter a word. In the end, she just gave
up, feeling that it wasn’t because she was scared, but simply because she didn’t want to be the third wheel.
Leslie was completely stunned. He never expected the boss to show up at this moment. But he never imagined that as soon as
the boss arrived, he would stand up for Martina, going to support her so unconditionally. Amy’s situation was not important to
Leslie at all, he only cared about the people arranged by the boss.
Simon silently followed behind. Recently, he had witnessed too many bizarre things, to the point that even if something
extraordinary happened in front of him now, he could reluctantly accept it.
Wasn’t it just the boss approaching Martina willingly and even coaxing her with such an attitude? What’s the big deal?
Everyone must know now how important Martina’s position was in the boss’s heart. It was normal for the boss to do such things.
Martina parted her lips, but the anticipated surge of emotions that would bring tears to her eyes never materialized. Instead, she
felt disgust and caution, retracting her hand.
She couldn’t figure out what Benjamin was doing now and what tricks he was using. He used to be so indifferent to her, and now
he was totally different. It made her feel for a moment that he might love her.
But the truth was, Martina was very clear that someone with Benjamin’s personality would only love himself. Even if she
misunderstood him now, it was just a misunderstanding that wouldn’t change anything.
How could Benjamin suddenly have a change of heart and look back at her, or even fallin love with her?
If such things happened, he wouldn’t be Benjamin anymore.
Benjamin’s gaze changed and changed again, and there were lingering traces of Martina’s warmth on his fingertips, making it all
feel so unreal.
