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

Chapter 53: It’s Time to Leave
The villagers kept their eyes fixed on the direction Benjamin and the others were leaving. When they saw them actually boarding the boat and leaving, they finally breathed a sigh of relief.

As he watched them leave, the Chief remained skeptical.

A villager’s voice hushed, as if afraid that someone might be eavesdropping, “Chief, what do you think we should do next? Will these people come back and cause trouble?”

Martina didn’t know how long she had been waiting. Maybe it was an hour, two hours, or three?

She waited until her mind started to feel drowsy.

The cellar was stuffy, and if someone stayed there for a long time, it could cause discomfort in the body.

Martina felt her consciousness becoming increasingly blurry, but fortunately, just when she was about to give in, she heard voices calling from above the cellar. “Miss Martinez… Miss Martinez, are you okay?”
