Please Be Gentle With Me Mr Grant novel Chapter 116

At noon, Blanca stood sadly by a vending machine and bought a box of cup noodles.

It was impossible for her to go on a diet to lose weight.

No matter how terrible she felt, she must eat.

“Blanca, I thought you were having lunch with Mr. Grant. Why are you buying this...”

Isabel came out of blue and Blanca smiled awkwardly, realizing Isabel and the others had already finished their lunch.

“Well, I don’t like today’s dishes and I suddenly have the urge to get some cup noodles.”

“Okay then. I sort of like cup noodles too. Maybe we can have them together next time.”

“That will be nice.”

She finally managed to get this over with. In the afternoon, with Isabel’s aid, Blanca learned how to use the printer to print and fax things. It was time to get off work when she finished printing all the files Anna gave her.

The colleagues were leaving.

Even Isabel said goodbye to Blanca and left. Blanca hesitated in the office for a while and walked downstairs. She had no idea whether Matthew left or not.

She didn’t know how to go home...

Should she take a taxi?

Just as Blanca was wondering, a black Land Rover honked and pulled off in front of her. Blanca was startled. She had been a bit off during the day and she realized this was Matthew’s car.

Curtis rolled down the window and said, “Mrs. Grant, please get in the car.”

Blanca hesitated for a minute. She didn’t want to see Matthew or talk to him. But taking a taxi would cost her a lot. So Blanca decided to hold back her feelings. She got in and Matthew didn’t even bother to look at her. He was busying working on his iPad and Blanca didn’t want to talk to him either.

He must have a great time with Elizabeth at lunch.

He claimed that he wanted her to stop women coming after him, but he seemed to enjoy that.

Blanca pouted and felt quite wronged as she stared outside the window.

Matthew was the boss at the company, but what about her?

She ground her teeth and made up her mind that she would impress everybody at the company.

Blanca’s phone rang and it was a message from a friend she knew at school, “Blanca, I saw your profile photo on Instagram. It was really cute. Could you design one for me?”

“Of course. Just send me a picture of yours. 5 dollars each and revisable.”

Seeing that message, Blanca was quite exhilarated and was no longer grim. She knew she had value.

That girl instantly sent six photos of different styles, “These are the photos of my five roomies and me. Excited to see your work.”

And then the money was also transferred to Blanca.

Blanca was so happy that she almost cried. She quickly replied and promised that she would give them the pictures tomorrow and they would be satisfied.

Hearing the tapping sound, Matthew frowned a little.

Ever since this noon, Blanca had been acting weird. He asked Curtis and then found out that She had been like that after she came out of Anna’s office. He knew Anna quite well and she was famously strict at work.

He thought Blanca would come to him and complained, but she didn’t...

“What are you doing with your phone?” asked Matthew suddenly.
