Chapter 39


    Chapter 39: She Must be Found, Alive or Dead!


    Leslie bid farewell to Simon and then left without looking back. He had more important things to do and


    couldn’t waste any more time here.


    As the only female assistant in the team and the most experienced one, Rihanna’s


    mood was also not good. She knew that Martina was extremely important to Benjamin;


    otherwise, he wouldn’t be so angry.


    Pity that they knew this toote. If they had been more prepared earlier, maybe they wouldn’t be in this


    situation now. But there was no use regretting as there was no magic pill for that.


    Other than Benjamin, the one with the worst mood should be Elizabeth.


    As Benjamin’s mother, she genuinely despised Martina. However, her own son had gone to such great


    lengths for Martina, mobilizing so many people! He didn’t even care about his work anymore. If this


    continued, it would be disastrous!


    Elizabeth had such an outstanding son, how could she let it all go because of a woman?


    Her eyes rolled around, feeling that she couldn’t sit idly by anymore. She had to find out


    @ solution.


    Elizabeth waved to the butler beside her. “Send people out to investigate where that woman has gone.


    Whether she’s alive or dead, I want to know. If we find her earlier, we’ll figure out a way to hide her


    more securely.”


    Even if she had to endure Benjamin’s anger, she would still do it without hesitation. Elizabeth couldn’t


    let Martina stay here any longer!


    To be precise, anyone who could potentially affect her son’s temper and reputation couldn’t be allowed


    to stay, or else there would be endless trouble.


    At this moment, Martina had just finished visiting thest nearby scenic spot and was preparing to go


    back and rest.


    But then she heard people around her talking and even seemed to be searching for someone. They


    were using a rather rough and straightforward approach.

    Martina discreetly looked in that direction and saw two men in suits, like bodyguards, appearing there.


    They held an unidentified photo and were questioning passersby one by one.


    “Excuse me, sir. Have you seen thedy in this photo? If you have, please contact us immediately.”


    “We will reward you with $100,000, and if you can directly lead us to her, you can receive a bonus of


    $1,000,000.”


    “Excuse me, Ma’am. Have you seen thisdy? If you have any information, please call the phone


    number on the business card immediately.”


    “We will rush to you as quickly as possible and deliver the bonus to you!”


    These two individuals seemed unfamiliar, but for some unknown reason, Martina had an inexplicable


    certainty that they must be the people brought by Benjamin.


    Even if they weren’t directly brought by him, they were undoubtedly connected to him.


    How else could it be such a coincidence?


    Martina didn’t dare to get too close, fearing that she would be immediately discovered. She discreetly


    hid nearby and tried to get a glimpse of the photo in their hands. Sure enough, she saw her own face.


    Once she confirmed this, her thoughts became extremelyplicated. So, had it finallye to this


    point?


    Martina had been waiting and hoping, holding onto a sense of luck, believing that things wouldn’te


    to this point and that Benjamin wouldn’t keep concerning himself with her affairs.


    Anyway, it was evident that she had intentionally run away. What was the point of searching for her? It


    was like the saying goes: “You can’t wake a person who is pretending to be asleep.”


    But Benjamin still did it. Did that mean Martina wasn’t actually worthless in his heart? Martina couldn’t


    guarantee it, nor did she want to dwell on these thoughts. Instead, she quickened her pace and hurried


    back to where she was staying.


    The twondy sisters weed Martina warmly when they saw her return, asking, “Why are you in


    such a rush, Miss Martinez? How was your sightseeing these past few days? You must have visited


    almost all the nearby tourist attractions.”


    The twodies hadn’t realized that something was amiss. They simply assumed that Martina had some


    urgent matter to attend to, which was why she returned in such a hurry.


    Martina didn’t want to trouble them, so she casually agreed, “It was good. There are many interesting


    things to see and do around here. I’ve been exploring so much these past few days, it’s been


    wonderful. I actually n on leaving now.”


    The twodies were taken aback. They hadn’t expected things to happen so suddenly. “What’s wrong?


    Are you feeling ufortable staying here? Or is it regarding our food? you have anyints,


    please feel free to tell us!”


    Martina felt a bit embarrassed by their enthusiasm. “No, it’s not that. I just feel like I’ve stayed here for


    long enough. It’s only natural to move on. Staying in one ce for too long can get dull.”


    Although the twodies were reluctant to see the beautiful and gentle Martina leave so soon, they


    could only nod and say, “Alright then. It’s not every day wee across a client. as easygoing as you,


    and now you’re already leaving. We’ll miss you.


    “Since you’ve been staying here for quite a while, we thought it’d be nice to send you off with some


    local specialties from our hometown to enjoy on your journey.”


    Martina declined firmly, “Thank you very much. However, I don’t think I can take more


    things with me in the journey.”


    However, the two sisters insisted. One of them held onto Martina while the other went


    to fetch something.


    In order to save time, Martina reluctantly agreed in the end. “I truly appreciate your kindness during my


    stay here. And thanks for the present.”


    As Martina spoke, she nced at her phone to check the time. Even if Benjamin’s people had already


    arrived, it wouldn’t be possible for them to find this ce so quickly.


    For now, she was still safe.


    If it weren’t for Benjamin, she wouldn’t have had to go through such ups and downs. Thinking about it


    now, she found it all ridiculous.


    What exactly had caused their rtionship to be so tense, to the point where she didn’t even want


    to see him anymore?


    Despite their past deep love for each other, that inner excitement still lingered, refusing to be released


    even to this day.


    However, the once lovers eventually couldn’t stand each other anymore.


    Before leaving, Martina took another deep look at the pleasant scenery of the small county called


    Peaceville County, saying, “Goodbye.”


    She grabbed her small bag that she carried with her, along with the remaining money and some local


    specialties the two sisters gave her.


    Then, she paid for a driver and started her journey once again.
