Please Be Gentle With Me Mr Grant novel Chapter 115

“Come on up. Join me at lunch.”

“But I... I am going with my colleagues.” Blanca barely finished what she was saying and Matthew already hung up on her leaving her no time to react to his request. Blanca looked at Isabel with an awkward look, “Sorry, I...”

“Don’t worry about it. Is it the chairman? I will grab someone else then.” Isabel smiled - it seemed like it didn’t trouble her at all. She went to the canteen with someone else, with a smile on her face.

Blanca was a bit disappointed seeing them walk away.

She smiled with bitterness, tidies her stuff up, and went upstairs. It was always Mrs. Brown that prepared Matthew’s meals, and there would not be an exception for today.

Blanca pushed the door open and walked inside. She saw Elizabeth Harris sitting there next to the coffee table already eating the lunch, “Matthew, Mrs. Brown is getting better and better at cooking. I always missed her cooking when I was abroad. And finally today I am enjoying this!”

“Mhm-hmm.”

Blanca stood there wondering if she should go in.

At this time, the sunlight came in through the window, and the handsome man and beautiful woman stood together looked very warm... Matthew had already taken off his suit jacket and rolled up his sleeves. He was sitting on the side of Elizabeth, and she was all dressed up in a gorgeous red dress with delicate makeup.

Every gesture of her showed the temperament that would be expected from a noble lady.

Blanca looked down at the clothes on her. All she had was a simple office lady suit.

The gap between these two girls was obvious.

“You are here. Take a seat and eat together.” Matthew saw Blanca standing at the door, and his instincts told us there was something wrong with her. Matthew waved at her.

It was just casual waving... but it got Blanca to tear up.

He had Elizabeth’s accompanying him anyways, why would he still ask her to come up here?

And what was with him waving? Was she some pet or puppy? Was it because Matthew was rich? Blanca thought she was even with Matthew in the past but now she felt that she did not belong here even just in front of him.

But now seeing the two of them together, Blanca suddenly developed a kind of cowardice.

Matthew and Elizabeth were the perfect couple here.

“What are you doing? Blanca, come here.” Seeing her motionless, Matthew couldn’t help it - his tone was harsh. He called Blanca and asked her to come up. Who knew Elizabeth would come uninvited? But Matthew felt that driving Elizabeth away would make him look bad. So he wasn’t having a pleasant look on his face.

But Blanca misunderstood.

Blanca looked over at Elizabeth, who was looking graceful when she ate. But Elizabeth ignored Blanca. Blanca forced a weird smile towards Matthew, “Chairman Grant, sorry I won’t be joining you two for lunch. I am on a diet. Please enjoy.”

After saying that, Blanca turned and walked away.

“...”

Matthew frowned.

“Matthew, Mrs. Brown’s stewed beef is so yummy! Isn’t this your favorite? Come on, it won’t taste as good when it’s cool...”

Elizabeth’s voice was all gentle and sweet. Blanca was biting on her lips, and she wished she had known better - after all, she was nothing but simply used to shield Matthew away from all his crazy lady pursuers.

Blanca - quit your silliness!

Besides, Matthew and Elizabeth looked like just for each other; Seeing them sitting together made Blanca feel so terrible that she couldn’t stay one second longer.

Blanca had to walk away from them. Elizabeth looked at her back with a provocative smile.
