Chapter 139: Awkwardness Struck

Benjamin was well aware, but he just hoped that he and Martina could reconcile, even

if it meant resorting to some underhanded tactics.

Seeing Benjamin’s unwavering expression, it was as if he would really go and wash by himself if Martina didn’t agree.

At that moment, Martina could only compromise. After all, it was because of his injury,

and she couldn’t simply ignore it.

In the end, Martina had no choice but to reluctantly take a clean towel and follow

behind Benjamin, saying, “I’ll help you wash.”

At the same time, she got some plastic wrap from the front desk to better protect the

wound from getting wet.

Ensuring that everything was in order, Benjamin entered the bathroom, and Martina

followed suit.

Unnoticed by Martina, Benjamin couldn’t help but curve his lips into a pleased smile. Clearly, he had everything under his control.

Martina was internally cursing and grumbling, but on the surface, she had to continue enduring the situation. She wondered if Benjamin was naturally confrontational with her. Why did he always find various ways to make her yield and disrupt her plans every time?

Regardless, she could only take Benjamin into the bathroom. She put on an eye mask and had Benjamin sit in the filled bathtub. Relying on her familiarity with his body, she awkwardly washed him.

Whether it was his upper body or lower body, Martina managed to clean him without much difficulty. The only issue was that she couldn’t see clearly, so the process was slower

than usual.

She didn’t know that during this time, Benjamin’s eyes were fixed on her, unblinking,
