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

Chapter 45: Today I Met Him

Since they weren’t too far from the shore at the moment, her position allowed her to see the scenery by the dock.

Martina’s heart skipped a beat, and she instinctively lowered her head, almost crouching down.

How could he react so quickly?

But as Martina pondered, she suddenly understood.

While she knew Benjamin, he also knew her just as well, if not better.

Benjamin had a firm grasp on her personality. If it weren’t for her stubbornness and the unprecedented choice she had made this time, she would probably have been taken back early on, just like before.

It was only natural for someone as intelligent as Benjamin to detect her actions at the earliest opportunity.
