Please Be Gentle With Me Mr Grant novel Chapter 112

Matthew went downstairs to breakfast, but his intuition told him that he was missing something.

Something felt wrong, but he wasn’t sure.

“Are you interested? Would you like something else? Mrs. Brown made oatmeal. I will get you a bowl if you’d like.” Blanca said this with a smile and ran off to get Matthew some oatmeal. She served it to him, “It’s a bit hot, be careful.”

“...”

As soon as Matthew finished his breakfast, Blanca approached him right away, “Go ahead and take a brief break. You’ve got about an hour before you have to clock in. The newspaper is on the coffee table for you.”

Blanca tidied away the dishes and chopsticks, still with a pleasing smile on her face.

That was bizarre.

Matthew made a hum and sat over on the couch reading the newspaper. And suddenly he felt a pair of gentle hands put on his shoulders when he was about to open the magazine. Blanca was trying to please him, “All the work you deal with every day must have worn you out. Let me give you a massage.”

She learned her technique from the craftsmen in the slum. She used to massage her grandma and was praised many times.

Blanca was relieved that Matthew didn’t resist her massaging him with dexterity.

Did that mean she might have a chance to get Matthew to help her?

Blanca was here at Oakshire to look for her biological parents. And she wouldn’t miss the chance of meeting Ernest Butler. Come to think of it, Blanca was even more engaged in pleasing Matthew. He would be so helpful in helping her find her birth parents if she won him over.

Hehehe...

Blanca couldn’t help laughing.

“What’s so funny?”

“Well...” Blanca blinked her eyes and lied about it easily, “I... I am feeling so lucky that an ordinary girl like me could marry a wonderful man like you. I just can’t hide how happy I am.”

“Oh?”

“Of course! You are the chairman of the Empire Group. Countless women are head over heels for you. But you chose an average girl like me as your wife. Why wouldn’t I be content?” Blanca didn’t stop massaging Matthew when she said this in a flattering manner.

She was keen on finding her parents.

Besides, she somehow was just telling the truth.

Matthew was almost immune to repetitive flattery as he heard about it almost every day. But now those words were said by Blanca, and for some reason, they worked the magic on him for her. Matthew was leaning on the couch and glanced at Blanca, “Enough of that sweet talk. Cut to the chase.”

“So...”

Blanca was hesitant about what to start with. She wasn’t like this at all before she had known Matthew. But now, she was in front of him, speechless.

“If you need my help with work, let me know anytime.” When he noticed the hesitation in her eyes, Matthew decided to move on. He glanced at his watch and got up directly, “I’m going to be late for work, let’s go.”

“...”

Did that mean she had made herself busy for nothing all this morning?

Blanca watched Matthew walk outside in stride. She got so disappointed and felt heartbroken.

She chased him up. She was about to mention Mr. Butler’s name a few times, but when she saw Matthew’s serious face, she couldn’t say anything. She decided to put it behind her mind until they were back at night. She might have to work her magic again...
