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

Chapter 149

Chapter 149: On Purpose?

However, from an angle the girl didn’t notice, after the young man had walked quite a distance, he also broke down in tears, burying his face in his hands.

It was evident that they were a deeply loving couple, but what hardships had driven them to this point?

Many other passersby sighed and felt emotional. They probably didn’t expect to witness such a scene today in this place.

In truth, a pair of matching locks really couldn’t represent much. It might have been just an obsession in the hearts of these two people, and now that the obsession was gone, there was no need to continue clinging to it.

Martina’s mood was also somewhat affected. She hesitated and tugged at Benjamin’s sleeve, “Do we really need to hang the locks?”

Though she didn’t express it very clearly, Benjamin could clearly see some hesitation in her eyes.

Perhaps he had guessed Martina’s thoughts. Was she worried that the same fate might befall them in the future?

Benjamin’s heart was filled with pain at this moment. He could assure her that such a thing would never happen, but he feared Martina might not easily believe him.

With a deep sigh, Benjamin gently pulled Martina into his arms and said, “We won’t be like that. No matter what happens, no matter what obstacles we face, this won’t be our ending.”

Martina pursed her lips. Perhaps at this moment, she truly felt the sincerity of Benjamin’s feelings for her. However, she still couldn’t completely let go of her worries.

Love was a complex thing. Just like before, she was once madly in love, but now she only wanted to leave.

“Alright, if you want to, let’s give it a try,” Martina sniffed and said. After all, it were just a pair of locks, and she tried to convince herself with that thought.

Strangely, from the moment they bought the locks to the moment they locked them, Benjamin deliberately turned the side with the writing away from Martina, so she couldn’t see what was written on them at all.

The locks were successfully hung on the edge of the cliff, and it felt like a door had been sealed in Martina’s heart.

Benjamin closed his eyes, he had never believed in the divine before. Yet, now he stood there, repeatedly praying to the gods.

People really could change; it all depended on whether they were willing or not.

Martina also closed her eyes slowly and made a wish in her heart, a wish she thought was impossible to come true.
