Please Be Gentle With Me Mr Grant

Chapter 166 Way to Cook up a Story, Blanca

Hahaha... Wasn’t it a bit shocking Blanca said that the chairman had left her alone at the party? Was

she sure she wasn’t trying to ruin the chairman’s reputation?

On the other hand, Curtis suddenly felt a sharp stare at him so he stopped laughing.

“What’s so funny? Why don’t you continue laughing?” Matthew glanced at Curtis with his profound

eyes.

He didn’t have a pleased look on his face.

In the surveillance footage, Blanca was already speaking boldly and freely.

“Well, Mr. Grant... If I may say this, perhaps you would want to go meet the journalists with Mrs. Grant

instead of hiding here checking it out through the security cameras.” Curtis said, seemingly with no

understanding of why Matthew did so.

Matthew dragged him here immediately after he had entered the office. Curtis thought he would be

there to protect Blanca. But for some reason, Matthew decided to pull him into the chairman’s office.

In addition, Matthew had ordered him to pull up the real-time surveillance video of the conference

room.

“What’s with all that BS, Curtis? Do you miss Africa?”

“No, no, no... Mr. Grant, please don’t. I am still getting over with the tan I got last time.” Hearing

Matthew’s obvious threat, Curtis went silent and felt like weeping but had no tears.

Seeing Blanca on screen looking skinny and beautiful, but speaking freely and lively, Curtis had to hold

back his laugh.

Blanca didn’t have a clue that she was observed by Matthew the entire time. She wiped her tears away

figuratively, “In fact, Matthew treats me well... But miscommunications between a married couple are

unavoidable. No one would know that someone would come out of nowhere and try to harass me as

soon as he had left... That was so scary.”

The journalists were taking notes while they listened to Blanca sharing this unfortunate experience in

tears.

Blanca was from humble origins but she didn’t fear authorities and powers. She stood up for herself

even though her husband was of noble birth. Blanca was a role model for women in the new era!

“But fortunately Matthew came back to my rescue because he got worried about me!”

Finally, the journalists understood the context of the whole incident and they were surprised - It seemed

that Mr. Grant had a warm heart underneath the disguise of his cold face.

“Miss Roach, can you please tell us how Mr. Matthew Grant proposed to you?”

“For this, I am sorry, since we both preferred to keep this a secret between us.. Anyway, Matthew did

try his best. Let’s switch the focus of our conversations to the company’s work and development.”

Blanca was acting like a trophy wife in a shy and pretty posture.

...Watching Blanca almost turn it into a gossipy tea party, Curtis couldn’t stand it anymore - If this went

on, it would hurt Matthew’s reputation.

“Mr. Grant, do you need me to...”

“It’s not necessary.”

Matthew squinted his eye, with a slight of anger on his face. No one had ever defamed him in public

like that, and what made it worse was that at this moment he could not rush out there and tell the

others that Blanca wasn’t telling the truth.

No matter what she said, Matthew had to push through and endure it.

At that moment, Matthew was walking towards the conference room. And by coincidence, Louise

walked by and saw him - Where was her workaholic elder brother Matthew going? He barely got out of

his office during working hours. Did this have to do with that Blanca? Thinking so, Louise got seriously

envious so she immediately followed along!

Blanca looked at the journalists who had asked her challenging questions, she smiled with a gentle

shyness, “Matthew cares about the company a lot. And as his wife, the least I could do is to cause him

less trouble. So please go easy on us.”

Blanca sounded so humble - It had become more challenging for these journalists to ask tricky

questions again.

So it seemed that Mrs. Grant was looking out for Mr. Grant?

“We do have one last question, Mr. Grant - Last night Mr. Grant was so protective of you at the cocktail

party, we assume you two must be so affectionate about each other?”
