: Which One Was More Important, Health or Staying Clean?
So, Benjamin was just pretending all along, waiting for Martina to fall into the trap, huh??
Even if Martina was not the sharpest, she could still figure out what was going on.
It suddenly dawned on her why all her attempts to wake Benjamin were in vain. He had been
pretending to be asleep, and she fell right into his cunning act! She had been completely deceived by
him!
It was almost suffocating for Martina until Benjamin finally released her.
“I said I’ll make a change, and I hope you can watch my transformation bit by bit until the day you truly
believe in me,” Benjamin said, softly.
Nevertheless, Martina was rendered speechless by his entire performance. She was completely taken
aback by the series of actions.
She didn’t even know what to say to change the current situation. She couldn’t even imagine that
Benjamin would dare to do such a thing. Wasn’t he supposed to be heartless. and uninterested in other
things? But now, he kept making changes time and time again. What was going on?
As Martina remained in shock, Benjamin softly squeezed her cheek. “Behave yourself, don’t gaze at
me like that, or I might lose my self–control.”
At first, Martina didn’t quite grasp the meaning of his words. But when she noticed subtle changes in
Benjamin’s body, her face turned red instantly.
Damn, was this man crazy?!
Despite his current physical condition, he dared to talk like this, as if he wanted to suffer a second
injury.
Martina’s face turned even redder, yet she still pretended to be composed, and her words came out all
stammered.
“You… You stop with these wild thoughts, or…or else your wound might get worse. Are you mad or
something?”
Benjamin pretended to look puzzled and blinked his eyes. “What are you talking about? Did I say
something? Clearly, I’ve been very well–behaved,” he teased. “Martina, what’s going on in your head
with all these random thoughts?”
Obylously, Benjamin was doing it on purpose, as if he considered it a form of entertainment. Seeing
Martina’s vivid little expressions on her face, he was very happy.
For a moment, Martina was completely speechless. It was hard to stay indifferent with a man who was
becoming shameless like this.
Benjamin’s changes weren’t just in his personality; he was even more mischievous now. He could even
say such things; the previous Benjamin would never have uttered such words
even if someone forced him to.
Recently, Martina had countless doubts about whether the man in front of her was the real Benjamin or
if someone had swapped his brain.
Martina pretended to be angry and scolded, “Don’t think I didn’t know what was going on in your head.
Stop pretending to be innocent!”
Benjamin laughed.
Spending some time getting along with Martina, Benjamin’s smile had become more
frequent.
Martina felt a bit bewildered but couldn’t continue staying with Benjamin. She sat on
the other side of the bed in a huff and pulled over one of the blankets. With a snort, she
muttered, “Time to sleep!”
Benjamin’s eyes were full of lust, and his body was indeed going through some changes. Even though
he didn’t say it out loud, it was an undeniable fact.
If it weren’t to avoid arousing Martina’s aversion, he might do something. Pity that some
things needed to progress gradually. Being too hasty now might scare her away, and then.
all his efforts would be in vain. He had persisted until now; there’s no way he would let that
happen.
So, even though his body was feeling a bit uncomfortable, Benjamin kept on holding
back. He decided to get up and take a shower to cool himself down.
Just when Martina had calmed herself down again, she suddenly saw Benjamin getting
up as if he intended to go somewhere. Subconsciously, she asked, “Where are you going?”
Their interaction seemed a bit awkward. It was not that they weren’t close, but there
was some tension between them, especially on Martina’s side, which made their interactions
strange.
However, both of them had feelings for each other, even if it was just a tiny bit, and
they couldn’t completely erase all of that.
Benjamin pursed his lips and then stammered, “Shower.”
At first, Martina didn’t pay much attention, thinking it was just a regular shower. What
could go wrong? Considering this guy’s germophobia, taking a shower was definitely a must
for him.
But then she realized that Benjamin was injured; why would he take a shower now?
Was he trying to hinder the healing of his wound?
Martina immediately got up and stood in front of Benjamin.
“You can’t go!” she exclaimed. “Didn’t you hear what the doctor said? Your body
proper rest and you should avoid getting wet as much as possible.”
“If you take a shower, your wound will definitely get wet, and then you’ll be the one
feeling uncomfortable. Why don’t you endure it for a couple of days?”
She couldn’t believe they were still arguing about this now! Which one was more
important, health or staying clean? Martina just couldn’t understand Benjamin now.
Normally, Benjamin would agree to Martina’s caring words, but now his body was
feeling a bit off, and if he didn’t shower, it might lead to more problems. However, he
couldn’t express his thoughts too clearly, so the two of them were stuck in this stalemate.
One insisted on showering, while the other forbade it.
Feeling helpless and speechless, Benjamin was unsure of how to explain. “I promise I won’t get the
wounds wet. Worst case, I’ll wrap them in plastic wrap.”
Martina replied, “Even so, what if they still get wet? I have to take responsibility for your health.”
Benjamin racked his brains and suddenly came up with an even better idea. “Or… you could help me
wash?”
In the past, it was so intimate that even showering together was not uncommon.
However, due to the events that followed, combined with Martina’s insistence on leaving, their
relationship visibly deteriorated.
Martina couldn’t even bear to look at Benjamin when he was changing clothes, let alone showering
together now.
Her words completely stumbled, “How could I help you wash? Don’t you know there’s a difference
between men and women?”
