Later, Benjamin waved his hand in front of Martina, and a distinct masculine fragrance hit her, finally bringing her back to her senses.
Instinctively, Martina took a step back, finding Benjamin dangerously close, as if he might kiss her any second.
Feeling a bit overwhelmed, she looked at him warily and said, “What’s up? Why are you so close? If you have something to say, say it without getting touchy!”
Benjamin looked genuinely innocent this time, “I didn’t get touchy at all. I was just trying to talk to you, but you completely ignored me.”
Martina belatedly realized that she was lost in her thoughts earlier, not even paying attention to what Benjamin was saying.
Her eyelids trembled slightly, and she tried to act nonchalant as she asked, “What did you say just now? I spaced out and didn’t catch it.”
Benjamin’s gaze shifted, and of course, he wouldn’t repeat himself. He simply turned away and got off the bed, his voice sounding somewhat muted, “It’s nothing.”
Martina felt a bit strange. She had just casually asked, so why did Benjamin suddenly become frustrated? Could it be that what he said earlier was really significant? However, Martina didn’t ask further.
They got ready to continue their mountain climbing. Simon had prepared some mountaineering equipment, though it wasn’t clear where he got them from. With these things, climbing the mountain would be much easier for them.
Actually, sometimes money could be really handy. If Benjamin wanted to, he could effortlessly take them to the mountaintop with his abilities. But he thought it would appear insincere, so he abandoned that idea and dragged his injured body, determined to climb the mountain.
Benjamin got this stubborn idea from. There was a perfectly good way,
