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

Chapter 21

Chapter 21: Why Didn’t She Want to Go Back?

Maybe because the house was too quiet, Martina sat on the couch, hugging her knees like a pitiful little girl, without moving for a long time.

If it weren’t for her faint breathing, her existence might be ignored, as if there was no one here at all.

Thinking of the resolute look that Benjamin had when he left just now, Martina felt heartbroken and almost suffocated.

At this moment, Martina couldn’t help but wonder when it all started. When did their

situation become so bad and eventually reach an irreparable point?

She believed that they were once the most intimate lovers, accompanying each other

since the time when Benjamin was not as mature as he was now.

Was it because she was waiting for someone she shouldn’t have waited for, or was it

because she was constantly harassed by Benjamin’s mother? So that she gradually

retreated?

Or was it because of Amy, making her feel like a joke?

Or…did she really change?

Once, she was willing to swallow all her pride, but now it seemed like she was changing bit by bit.

She didn’t know exactly when it started, but she became afraid to approach Benjamin, as if getting close would only cause her more harm.

Since Benjamin no longer needed her to regulate his emotions or social interactions, she became more and more dispensable, with everyone forgetting her significance.

She didn’t want to assert her importance, but at least she didn’t want to feel like her existence was as insignificant as an ant. Anyone could easily step on her without paying any consequences, all thanks to Benjamin.

It was time to end it.
