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

Chapter 84: How Did They Treat You?
Previously, Benjamin had never paid much attention to these matters because he believed that as long as he was there, no one would dare to bully Martina. But recent events made him gradually realize that there were many things that didn’t align with his imagination.

The days that Martina had spent with him didn’t seem happy, otherwise, she wouldn’t have been willing to abandon everything and leave his side.

Seeing that she remained silent, Benjamin thought she was unwilling to speak, so he tried again with a coaxing tone, “I just want to understand your past better. If you don’t want to talk about it, then forget it.”

Martina, who used to be sleepless over such matters, suddenly found herself wide awake. In the past, she would have swallowed her pride and kept everything to herself, not wanting to worry Benjamin and affect his mood.

But now, things were different. She reflected on everything she had done and couldn’t help but feel like the biggest fool.

Why did she silently do so much for Benjamin, only to end up hiding everything like a fool? Was the love she had given so shameful that it couldn’t be seen by anyone?

With this thought in mind, Martina spoke in a calm tone but delivered particularly impactful words, “There was nothing in the past. Anyway, in their eyes, I have always been. an ignorant woman who overestimates myself. Whether it’s your family, your friends, or even the servants in your household, they all look down on me in the same way.”

For example, the butler, the cleaning servants, and all sorts of people. They never truly cared about Martina, nor did they consider her as Benjamin’s true girlfriend. All they felt was disgust and jealousy, just as Martina had said, with the same attitude towards her.. heart.

If Martina appeared calm now, it would only stir up storms and turbulence in Benjamin’s

He had never imagined that Martina’s past days had been so miserable, and it seemed that he was the cause of such misery.

“I used to think that if I just endured a little longer, waited for your return, everything would be fine,” Martina gazed out the window and said. But the harsh reality has shown me that my endurance only fuels certain individuals to become even more relentless. They never truly regarded me.”

After a brief pause, Martina turned around and called out, “Benjamin.”
