Fleeing the Gilded Cage: Don’t Want to be the Billionaire’s Wife Chapter 98

Chapter 98: Protection or Surveillance?

Martina deliberately chose to dismiss the trivial matter, considering it meaningless. She purposefully averted her gaze from Benjamin, avoiding eye contact, and steered the conversation towards a different topic.

“I heard from Elena that you’re willing to let me focus on my own things. Is that true?”

Martina asked.

Benjamin freed up one hand and ruffled Martina’s head. “Yeah, instead of keeping you cooped up at home, it’s better to let you find something to do on your own.”

“If you want to work, I won’t stop you. I’ll have Leslie continue to accompany you and be responsible for your safety. Just let me know in advance about the things you want to do.” Benjamin explained.

However, to Martina, it sounded like another form of disguised surveillance. No wonder Benjamin agreed so quickly; he had already prepared a backup plan.

Leslie following her around meant that she couldn’t do much except work-related tasks.

However, just as Benjamin had said, it was better than being cooped up at home with nothing to do. Even if someone was monitoring her, it didn’t matter for now, and Martina wasn’t in a hurry to leave.

After realizing these thoughts, Martina ceased her contemplation. “Alright then, starting from tomorrow, I’ll go to work.”

“Your people can accompany me, but the condition is that he better not interfere with my work. Otherwise, don’t blame me for saying bad things to him,” Martina warned.

“Okay, I’ll go along with your plan.” Benjamin agreed, and his good-looking fingers lightly pinched Martina’s nose. This intimate gesture, which was once so familiar, now felt so unnatural.

That night, Martina slept together with Benjamin. Regardless of how much she resisted, the end result wouldn’t be much different. So she decided to pretend that Benjamin wasn’t there. As long as Benjamin didn’t cross any boundaries, she could consider it as sharing a bed without losing anything.

At first, Martina was tense all over and had no intention of falling asleep for a long time. But later, perhaps due to exhaustion, she unknowingly fell asleep, completely unaware of what happened afterwards.
