Chapter 17: The Stranger
This woman was so persistent, even trying to compete with her for her son?

It seemed she must find a way to make this woman never come to the Walker family again. Oherwise, sooner or later, she would bring trouble to both her and her son. She had always said that this woman was a troublemaker and must not be kept around.

At this moment, even Benjamin’s emotions were a bit unusually irritable.

He rubbed his throbbing forehead, feeling that he had almost reached his limit with Martina’s recent behavior.

Clearly, every time he came back before, Martina was always the most cheerful one, and she would even take the initiative to kiss and hug him. But now, she was totally different.

Her behavior was completely out of character when she went to the nightclub, ended up being taken to the police station, and appeared like an abandoned animal. She created a significant disturbance, which was unlike her previous self.

Despite his best efforts to remain composed, Benjamin found himself unable to tolerate the recent events. Martina had repeatedly disappeared without warning, causing him great distress. He couldn’t help but wonder if she had no intention of returning and what her intentions were.

After a few seconds, Benjamin got back in the car and asked Simon to investigate, “See where she is now.”

Simon acted quickly, and since Martina did not deliberately conceal her whereabouts, she was soon found.

“Miss Martinez and Miss Rodríguez are together, at the art studio run by Miss Rodriguez,” Simon replied.

Benjamin had impulsively planned to go and see Martina, determined to bring her back.

However, his efforts ultimately proved to be unsuccessful. Because another call soon came in, probably about work-related matters that needed urgent attention, and Benjamin’s face became increasingly gloomy as he listened.

Finally, he scowled and instructed Simon to turn the car around and head towards the company building.
