Martina’s gaze fell on Amy, with an indescribable smile in her eyes.
It was so typical of Benjamin, who was always so indifferent to everyone. For him, perhaps there was nothing worth his attention except work.
Not long ago, Martina had also left the Walker family. Unexpectedly, the person who was now forced to leave had become Amy.
Elizabeth could only comfort Amy, as if deliberately doing it in front of Martina, “Don’t worry, Amy, I am definitely on your side. You can go back and live for a few days. After a few days, I will send someone to pick you up, okay?”
Amy looked very wronged and suspicious. She almost fell to the ground on the spot, looking weak and helpless. “Can Auntie really come to pick me up?”
Amy was very clear in her heart that according to Benjamin’s personality, it might not be so easy to move back in after leaving this time. However, she couldn’t show her temper in front of Elizabeth, or it would only backfire.
Elizabeth nodded solemnly and promised, “Don’t worry, I never lie.”
Martina heard their conversation and couldn’t help shaking her head with a mocking smile. Then, she prepared to leave directly.
Anyway, this matter had nothing to do with her. Even if Amy was thrown out of here by someone, it had nothing to do with her.
But unexpectedly, Amy wouldn’t let it go. Maybe she thought that Martina was laughing at her, and suddenly felt embarrassed and angry.
The next second, she took the initiative to stand in front of Martina, trying to slap her in the face.
Despite her frail body and frequent illnesses, Amy was actually very domineering, as evidenced by the small incidents from last night.
But Martina was no longer the one who let others walk all over her, including now. She firmly grasped Amy’s wrist and exerted a little force, causing her to stumble and fall to the ground.
Despite being the one who struck first, Amy cried out in pain and looked at Elizabeth pitifully, “It hurts so much…”
Martina coldly said, “Paloma, stop your nonsense. You better not provoke me, otherwise I don’t mind throwing you out of here right now.”
It was unclear whether it was because this was the first time Martina had shown such a strong attitude in front of everyone or for some other reason, but Amy was actually scared for a moment and forgot how to react for a short time.
Instead, it was Elizabeth who looked particularly displeased and cast her gaze on Martina, with a strong sense of disdain in her eyes.
Her tone was also unreservedly reproachful, “Martina, who gave you the right to make trouble in my home and even hurt a guest from the Walker family? Do you really think that by using some means to make my son bring you back, you are now the hostess of this family?”
Martina tried to say something in her defense, but Elizabeth did not give her the chance and said, “Listen! As long as I’m here, you will never be able to become the hostess of this family. Even my son will eventually throw you out!”
In the past, Martina would have been very angry at these words, but now she remained indifferent and didn’t even want to spare a glance.
She only responded with a sarcastic tone, “Is that so? Well, I wish you could get your wish. But let me tell you one thing: no matter what you want to do, it’s better not to provoke me. I don’t have enough patience.”
Elizabeth’s eyes widened in disbelief. She couldn’t believe that Martina would dare speak to her like that.
Did Martina think she had enough power to make herself an important person?
Just as Elizabeth was about to continue her outburst, Martina quickly picked up her belongings and left.
Besides feeling mentally exhausted, Martina couldn’t feel anything else.
However, as Elizabeth watched Martina’s retreating figure and the bag she was carrying, her brows furrowed.
She then signaled to the butler in a manner that showed she didn’t believe Martina.
“Go and see what that damn woman has taken from the house again. She left so quickly, could she have stolen something?” Elizabeth commanded.
The butler nodded and went to investigate, but after searching around, he found that nothing had been lost from the house.
Elizabeth became even more curious. Why did Martina leave so quickly? It was not like her usual behavior. To ensure that nothing went wrong, she instructed the butler to keep a close eye on Martina’s activities, “Keep an eye on Martina’s activities recently. I want to see what that woman is up to again.”
Last night, Martina managed to make her son pick her up from outside, so it was clear that she had some tricks up her sleeve. Could it be that she suddenly became smarter and learned to retreat when necessary?
Elizabeth could let Martina be like that. She refused to accept this useless daughter-in-law!
Just as Martina had left for only a few minutes, Benjamin and his companions returned in a hurry.
At that moment, the table was filled with a variety of delicious breakfast dishes.
Elizabeth stood up happily as soon as she saw her son come back to the breakfast table and said, “My son is back. You must be tired after working all night. Come and have breakfast.”
Benjamin looked around and didn’t see Amy, nor did he see Martina. He thought Martina hadn’t woken up yet and asked the maid to call her down for breakfast.
However, the maid did not act, but instead shook her body with fear and spoke hesitantly. “M… Mr. Benjamin Walker, she…”
Benjamin’s patience was running out and he gave the maid a cold look. The next second, the maid fell to the ground with fear.
It was Elizabeth who gave the maid a signal to back off and then took over the conversation, “No need to call Martina, she left 10 minutes ago.
“Before she left, I don’t even know what she took with her. She was speaking rudely and even pushed Amy to the ground!” Elizabeth complained. “I think that girl’s arrogance has really gone to her head. She’s wild and out of control now, no one can stop her.”
Perhaps because she was too angry about what happened in the morning, she couldn’t stop talking about Martina, “When you were not at home, she used to bother Amy. Now that she’s spoiled and arrogant, it’s even harder to control her. Son, you have to listen to what I say. Sometimes, you can’t spoil women too much, otherwise, they’ll become uncontrollable. I am speaking from experience, you have to listen to what I say.”
Benjamin’s pupils were completely black, making it hard to tell what he was thinking inside.
The next second, he turned and left without even looking back. Elizabeth was totally pissed off!
If she guessed correctly, Benjamin must be going to find that damn woman Martina!!
