Chapter 23: How Long Do You Plan to Keep Doing This?
Due to the large number of people and the fact that it was being held at a five-star hotel, everyone needed to dress formally.
Men had to wear suits, while women had to wear formal dresses. And on such an important day, Martina naturally wanted to be more attentive, as it was her very important
teacher after all.
After being busy for a while, everything was finally arranged properly.
At 7 p.m. around, Martina received a phone call from her teacher, Ms. Bridge.
Martina and Elena were already on their way to the hotel by this time.
Martina smiled and said, “Don’t worry, even if I forget everything, I cannot forget your birthday. We’re on our way, and we’ll arrive in about 10 minutes.”
Ms. Bridge was very happy and said, “Okay, I’ll arrange for someone to pick you up, so you don’t have to worry about finding the entrance later.”
Martina surely had no reason to refuse these small requests and agreed to them.
When they arrived at the hotel, Elena went to park the car while Martina walked
towards the hotel entrance.
However, Martina didn’t expect that she would come face to face with the man she least wanted to see again, just one night later.
On this day. Martina donned a knee-length black evening dress embellished with delicate rhinestones, accentuating her exquisite figure. Even a mere glimpse of her side profile was enough to create a mesmerizing impression.
Her beauty was truly extraordinary, captivating the attention of many passersby, especially with her long, slender legs that seemed to command admiration. Her luscious wavy curls exuded a sense of both sensuality and allure, merging pure desire with
irresistible charm.
This kind of woman was exactly the type that could make a man’s heart skip a beat.
As Martina stepped out of the car, she couldn’t help but imagine what Benjamin would say if he were present. She could almost anticipate his straightforward comment about the dress not suiting her and his request for her to change into something else.
Martina laughed and shook her head at the thought, realizing that she had become too accustomed to being controlled. It was strange that she was now thinking of her past when there was no one to control her.
However, the next second, the smile on Martina’s face stiffened instantly.

Martina took a step back and looked at Benjamin, “What are you doing here?”
Benjamin seemed not to notice Martina’s resistance and reached out to her, “Ms. Bridge.
asked me to bring you in.”
Martina frowned and never expected that the person who came to pick her up was
Benjamin.
Benjamin could be considered as a student of Ms. Bridge, because he had studied in the same university after all. Moreover, Ms. Bridge also had her own place in the business world and was a person that many people wanted to win over.
According to Benjamin’s personality, it was normal for him to attend events with such talented people because he would rather make friends than enemies.
However, he was usually busy with work and was often absent from these events. Two years ago, Benjamin and Martina attended this event, but they only stayed for a short while due to work reasons and left immediately.
As a result, many people did not see him and did not know the relationship between Martina and Benjamin.
Previously, Martina’s greatest wish was to be able to attend these events with Benjamin, but unfortunately, she was never successful.
