Mr Grant, Please Be Gentle

They were indeed the same…

Did that mean that she was the child of the Roach family?

Niggling thoughts were running wild in her mind and Blanca didn’t know what to do.

“But that doesn’t prove anything,” Matthew saw her covering her fore head and added, “I will do some investigation about this. You just need to wait for the result, okay?”

On the day when Mr. Butler came to him at the office, Matthew had already found out that this pendant was the same as the one Mr. Butler made, but they weren’t the same one.

Malinda was once kidnapped and was found a year later. They thought that pendant was gone, but yesterday the old woman who sent Malinda back brought the pendant to them and claimed that she didn’t find it until that day.

This matter needed to be thoroughly investigated.NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.

Seeing Blanca so depressed, Matthew felt sorry and said, “If you trust me, I will give you an answer to this.”

Blanca hesitated for a while and said, “Matthew, I just want the truth.”

“What?”

“I was born a slum dog and got used to the hardship in life. I never dreamed of being a princess but I just want the truth,” Blanca said in tears. She was being blunt and emotional about this.

Her grandma was all she had growing up and now she was gone, leaving Blanca alone in this world. She just wanted to find her family!

“Matthew, you won’t lie to me, right?”

Blanca tried to force herself to give him a smile.

Her smile made him feel a sting on his heart…

Would he tell her the truth?

If the truth costed too much, would he tell her?

“Matthew, will you?” Blanca asked again.

After a while, Matthew said, “Well, just get some sleep.”

Then he turned off the lights. It seemed like he didn’t want Blanca to see the hesitation on his face.

But Blanca was relieved!

Excellent! She could feel that she was closer to the truth…

This night, Blanca slept quite well.

The next morning, she woke up and found Matthew was already gone. It looked like he had gone for exercise. Blanca stretched her arms and felt quite refreshed after getting everything out in the open. She even started to hum when going downstairs.

“Good morning, Mrs. Brown!”

“Good morning, Mrs. Grant!”

Mrs. Brown was doing her cleaning job smiling. Blanca went downstairs and saw Matthew at the dining table, looking cold and prestigious. Blanca pulled the chair out and greeted him like nothing happened last night.

“Good morning.”

“Hmm.”

Even though he was having his breakfast, he couldn’t help smiling seeing her happy like that.

“After you finish your breakfast, come to the office with me,” Matthew said.

“…”

Blanca held her glass of milk and frowned. She pretended to ask inadvertently, “What am I going to the office for? I already quit.”

“To keep me company. Is that too much to ask?”

Blanca choked on his words and coughed. She stared at him and wondered what was wrong with him.

Why would she go to work with him just to keep him company?

“But I’ve got things to do,” Blanca said.

After finishing his meal, Matthew wiped his mouth elegantly and asked, “What are you going to do?”

“I have plans with my friend.”

Blanca said that calmly. She made a promise to Fiona that she would visit her school and Fiona would introduce her to some friends of hers. Blanca didn’t get many chances to hang out with her friends anymore since she came to Oakshire. She actually liked having fun with her friends and now this was a good opportunity.
