Please Be Gentle With Me Mr Grant novel Chapter 169

Of course, Blanca wanted to find the pendant owner.

Blanca got pretty disappointed about not meeting Mr. Butler. She didn’t expect herself to be feeling this way - In fact, she assumed she had gotten used to living on her own, without her parents around for over 20 years.

But for some reason, she was feeling quite anxious now that she had found more evidence to her background.

The smile on her face faded away, “Matthew, we’ve made a deal. You promised that you would help me figure out my family. If you didn’t keep your promise, I will let the journalists know immediately that we have nothing but a marriage of convenience.”

“Will you?”

Blanca looked at Matthew’s superior appearance, and her heart suddenly felt a little sad. She knew that there was no way she could fight against Matthew and win, but she definitely wouldn’t give up.

Thinking so, Blanca coldly patted on the table, “I hope you keep your promise. There are still two weeks away from the one-month deadline we agreed to. If I don’t see anyone related to the pendant in two weeks, I will tell everyone the truth about our relation... Chairman Grant, I don’t think you’d want a scandal to be exposed like this for the Empire Group, would you?”

She did throw Matthew away by what she had said. No one had ever threatened Matthew Grant like she just did.

“Blanca, are you even aware of whom you are dealing with here?” Matthew suddenly asked.

“My beloved hubby.” Blanca put on a smile suddenly and wrapped her hands around Matthew’s neck, “Now that you are my husband - we will keep it this way as long as you keep your promise, otherwise... you will become my ex-husband before you know it.”

“Ex-husband...?”

The word “ex-husband” coming out of the mouth of a girl in her early 20s almost sounded unbelievable!

Blanca grinned, “So, I hope you will find me anything helpful soon. Bye for now, I will be at my desk.”

Blanca walked out of the door after saying so. She saw a shadow at the corner of the hallway outside the door, she paused and looked around - It looked like someone she might know, but she looked again and there was no one out there. It might be someone passing by.

Louise walked out from the corner she had been hiding in after making sure Blanca had left. Confusion was written all over Louise’s face!

She had so many questions - What did she hear?

Blanca said in the room that she and Matthew were only having a marriage of convenience!

When Louise saw the ambiguity between Matthew and Blanca, she was almost mad with anger, but she continued to listen and she found some juicy news.

Blanca, what are you going to do now to fix this?

Louise started sneering. Suddenly, there arose a shadow. Matthew always reacted fast but he got a little carried away while he was with Blanca just now. That was why Louise had snapped some “evidence” of their conversation.

“Hand it over.” Matthew was talking about Louise’s phone.

He had noticed that Blanca turned her head with suspicion on her way out. Blanca might have missed Louise, but Matthew didn’t. Matthew had always been highly alert and intuitive.

“What, what are you talking about? Matthew, why are you here? I thought you didn’t like wandering around working hours... Heh.”

“Louise, do I have to make you do it?” Matthew scolded.

Looking at Matthew’s angry look, Louise felt bad. What did Blanca do so Matthew had been treated her with gentleness, but he wouldn’t do so with herself?

“Matthew, she was just a slut. Why didn’t you want me instead? I heard it - What you and Blanca had was just a marriage of convenience...” Matthew had taken over her phone before she could even finish. She was tearing up a little. And as she saw Matthew walk away from her, she gritted her teeth, feeling upset.

So, she did have something on Blanca...
