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

Chapter 103: How Did You Invite Her In?

Alejandro, who was around 29 years old, was indeed a few years older than Martina.

He was also a prominent figure in the business world, although he might have paled in comparison to Benjamin. However, he was definitely not someone to be underestimated. Otherwise, there wouldn’t have been so many people coming to celebrate his birthday today.

Elena’s actions spoke volumes about her strong reliance and idolization of Alejandro, even if she didn’t express it verbally.

Despite it being their first meeting, Martina could discern the deep admiration Elena held for Alejandro. Therefore, she didn’t find it surprising at that moment.

It was just that the unexpected incident earlier made Martina somewhat uncomfortable. It was completely beyond her expectations.

Martina thought Alejandro wouldn’t react to Elena’s words, but unexpectedly, he actually started seriously contemplating.

“Indeed. Miss Martinez is even more gorgeous than how she was described to me. Truly a remarkable beauty among all women,” he said in awe.

Martina felt a bit awkward with such praise, and her face became slightly red. “Thank you for your compliment, but if you continue to describe me like that, I will feel

embarrassed.”

Alejandro’s mood got even better. He waved to Elena. “You’re late by quite a bit. Didn’t we agree that you would arrive before 8 o’clock? It’s already half–past eight now.”

Elena made a playful grimace in front of her older brother, finally showing a little bit of a girl’s demeanor. “Well, it’s because of bringing along my bestie that we were delayed a bit, right? Don’t say it like that. Are you really going to dwell on this little bit of time?”

Alejandro checked the time and indeed, it was already late, even more than 10 minutes past the agreed time. “For now, come with me outside. I can’t handle them alone.”

Although Elena felt some dissatisfaction in her heart, she didn’t dare to refuse directly. She could only nod and agree, taking Martina along with them at the same time.

The three of them hurriedly went down the stairs.

It must be acknowledged that their pairing was truly remarkable. They possessed a -presence that instantly garnered admiration.
