Mr Grant, Please Be Gentle

Matthew noticed that Blanca was staring at him. He didn’t show anything on his face and just held her hand, “Elizabeth, Blanca is my wife, not my servant. Please stop acting like a spoiled little princess.”

His wife…

Blanca looked up at him and felt something warm in her heart.

She felt that the hard feelings of being isolated, trashed and neglected suddenly had gone away.

She was not alone.

Blanca’s eyes got wet and she looked away, failing to hide the smile on her face. She stood straight confidently.

“Blanca, no one can treat you like that,” Matthew whispered to her, “except for me.”

“…”

Even though that was a little irritating, Blanca still felt quite touched.

She looked down and saw his hand holding hers. His hands were so big and warm. Blanca smiled and squinted her eyes. Her thick eyelashes left a shadow beneath her eyes. She squeezed his hands and said, “Even you cannot bully me. Or I’ll fight you!”

She could tell that Matthew was a bit shocked. But Blanca didn’t worry at all. They had a contract and it was normal for married couple to show off their happiness.

Especially when someone was rubbing it in her face. Did they really think she was a pushover?

Blanca leaned on Matthew’s arms and winked, “Honey, you were close to Elizabeth back then? She is the little sister you mentioned, right?”

Blanca emphasized the word “sister”.

A woman knew best how to irritate another woman.

The fact that Elizabeth had a crush on Matthew was a perfect weapon to hurt her feelings.

Elizabeth seemed quite jealous and sad, which made Blanca even happier. She let go of Matthew’s hand and grabbed his arm. She leaned over him and grinned. Matthew felt kind of weird but didn’t push her away.

Blanca winked at Elizabeth and said, “Elizabeth, since you’re like a little sister to my husband, then I will treat you like we’re sisters too!”

She called her sister again?!

Seeing this couple so close, Elizabeth stepped forward and shouted, “What makes you think you’re good enough to marry him!”

“What?” Blanca looked at Matthew, she acted surprised and confused.

She frowned and shook Matthew’s arm, “Honey, I’m not pretty and rich like Elizabeth and look at all the presents she brought you. I am a nobody. Why did you fall in love with me?”

Matthew cleared his throat.

Blanca pinched him and he frowned instantly.

He took a deep breath and calmed down. He looked at Blanca gently, “Well, love is love. No one can explain it.”

“So, even though I’m such a loser, you still fell for me?”
