Chapter 91: Did He Really Say That? On the other hand, Adam didn’t go to the hospital or home. Instead, he randomly found a hotel to stayin.

He couldn’t understand what was going on. Why did Benjamin suddenly become so angry, eventormenting himself like this?

The only thing Adam could be sure of was that Benjamin was blaming someone, but who was heblaming himself for??

Adam racked his brains, and just when he couldn’t come up with a single answer, a figure suddenlyflashed in his mind!

“Hold on a moment”, he said to himself, “why do the phrases ‘slapped’ and ‘a gold- digger’ seem to beconnected to Martina?”

Upon careful consideration, it was indeed the case! Besides Martina, Adam and the others had nevertreated any other woman like that. It was because they considered Martina to be a cheap, shamelessgold-digger, so they always acted towards her in the harshest possible.

way

After realizing all of this, Adam suddenly felt terrible about himself and muttered, “How is this possible?Could it be that he really has developed feelings for her?”

Further associating with Benjamin’s recent changes, even if Adam didn’t want to admit it, it seemed likehe had to.

No wonder Benjamin never showed much interest in his sister. So, after these years of being together,he’d actually developed an interest in Martina, right?

Adam rubbed his swollen cheeks and couldn’t swallow the indignation no matter what. He indeed didn’tdare to do anything to Benjamin, but it didn’t mean he wouldn’t dare to do something to Martina.

Why did Martina have the right to stay by Benjamin’s side? Was she worthy?

However, Benjamin was actually willing to give up his most valued job and tirelessly search for her.

Various conflicting thoughts mingled together, and Adam furrowed his brows tightly. No, I must replace outwhat’s going on, and see how things really are.”

Adam applied an ice pack to his face and was ready to take action. He took out his phone to messagesomeone.

At the hospital, Martina opened her eyes and noticed the recognizable layout of the hospital ward,although there were some unfamiliar elements.

She moved her hand and realized there was still a needle in it. It hurt a bit whenever

she moved even slightly.

Her thoughts were becoming clearer and she carefully recollected the previous situation.

However, no matter how much she pondered, she couldn’t figure out what was going.

Wasn’t she sleeping in bed? Why did she wake up and replace herself in the hospital? Did she sleepwalkor something?

Martina looked around the ward, and besides herself, there was no one else here.

She struggled to sit up, and the needle drew back with her blood.

The next moment, the sound of footsteps could be heard outside the door, and Elena walked brisklyinto the ward..

She had a lunchbox in her hand, and as soon as she saw Martina awake, she hastened. her pace evenmore.

She also noticed that Martina’s IV bag had regained a significant amount of blood, which startledElena. She shouted at the door, raising her voice, “Doctor! Nurse! Hurry! The blood flowed back intothe tube!”

Soon, a nurse who was specifically in charge of Martina’s condition walked in. There. were only a fewmilliliters of liquid left in the IV bag anyway.

With Martina’s consent, the nurse helped her remove the needle earlier, and took away. the remainingIV bag.

“Why am I here?” she asked Elena in a hoarse voice. Her eyes seemed empty, indicating the lingeringeffects of a fever, and her throat felt incredibly dry bit.

Perhaps because Elena was the first person she saw, Martina’s mood improved quite at However,there was still one thing Martina didn’t understand.

She thought to herself, “I was clearly sleeping at the Benjamin’s villa, so why am I in the hospital, and…why is Elena here? It can’t be that Elena forcefully entered the villa and brought me out to the hospital.”

Elena immediately saw through the emotions in Martina’s eyes and held her hand. “Martina, you scaredme,” said Elena, anxiously. “I know what you’re thinking. You had a high fever, around 103°F, and Itwas Benjamin who brought you to the hospital.”

“It was also Benjamin who called me and asked me to come here to accompany you. When I arrived atthe hospital entrance, I happened to see him leaving in a car, probably busy with work.”

Elena said a lot.

From these words, Martina finally understood the situation. So, last night when she had a fever, it wasBenjamin who noticed it and brought her here.

No one knew what mindset Benjamin had when he chose to have Elena come and accompanyMartina.

Perhaps it was due to guilt over what happened before? Or maybe it was impatience with Martina?

But no matter the reason, to put it bluntly, it didn’t really matter to Martina, and she didn’t want to care..

Seeing that Martina was not in a good mood, Elena proactively poured her a glass of water.

She also took out the food from the lunchbox, which smelled good and definitely wasn’t made by Elenaherself.

“Anyway, you should eat something for the sake of your health! You can’t continue torturing yourselflike this. Who are you trying to scare?” Elena reproached, her tone filled with concern.

Speaking of which, she found it strange that Benjamin seemed to have genuinely changed in someway.

And he even said something before leaving.

Martina took a few sips of the porridge, but it didn’t taste like anything because of her sore throat.

Seeing Elena remained silent, she asked, “What are you thinking? If you have work to do, go aheadand do it. You don’t have to worry about me.”

It was just a fever anyway, and it had already returned to normal.

Martina didn’t think she was so fragile that she needed constant attention.

Regarding what happened last night, she didn’t remember anything, so naturally, she had no idea whatshe might have said to Benjamin in her dazed state. Perhaps that was why Benjamin didn’t want her tosee him as the first person when she woke up.

Because Benjamin knew very well that Martina only seemed to revert to her previous self when shewasn’t fully conscious. But once she woke up, she would go back to being someone who didn’t lovehim, was Impatient with him, and didn’t want to see him.

The contrast between these two states was too significant for Benjamin to accept.

Elena snapped out of her thoughts and shook her head. “Work’s been alright. Not too busy these pastfew days. Anyway, there’s something I want to talk to you about,” Elena said.

Martina put down her food and stared unwaveringly at Elena. “Just say it. Do we still need to be politewith each other?”

“Well, the thing is, when I arrived earlier, I saw Benjamin, you know,” Elena smiled and said. “Before heleft, he told me something. He said that you can continue working at the studio if you want to.”

“What?” Martina was taken aback. She hadn’t expected Elena to suddenly bring this. up.

Martina raised an eyebrow and asked, “He said that on his own initiative?”

“Yes!” Elena nodded vigorously. “I had actually intended to express my frustration about him causingyou to fall ill, but when he said that, it left me completely speechless!”
