The white wedding gown appeared as if in a dream, and Blanca went into a bit of a daze.
Sheâd been poor growing up, and had only ever been able to look at those wedding gowns in shop windows, dreaming that one day she could have a fairy tale wedding...
Sheâd even started saving up in secret for a wedding gown when sheâd been with Todd.
But Todd had cheated on her.
âWhat good fortune you have, madam. Sir already told us to prepare the wedding gown. He really does care about you,â the manager was all smiles and praise. The woman before her was their madam chairwoman, after all. After getting in her good books, they wouldnât have to worry about promotions and raises.
Blanca looked at the gown, unable to even out her emotions. She looked at Matthew, her voice trembling somewhat. âIs this â for me?â
This was such a complicated feeling.
She didnât think the first wedding gown of her life would be a gift from Matthew of all people.
âDonât like it?â Matthew cocked an eyebrow.
âNo no no, I love it!â With a sure answer, Blanca was about to weep for joy!
What a woman looked forward to the most was a perfect wedding, after all!
âWhether you like it or not, wear it for the wedding.â Matthew scanned her head to toe and had people take Blanca to try it on. Blanca nodded obediently. The moment she came out in her wedding gown, it was as if all her surroundings had lost their original color.
Just too beautiful.
She could go straight into a pageant at this point.
âMadam, the gown is a perfect fit for you.â
âYes, she just looks pretty to begin with...â
Several people started ladling on the praise. Blushing, Blanca lifted the skirts of the gown and with red ears walked in front of Matthew, controlling the little murmur of her heart. âDoes it look okay?â
âYou sure wonât embarrass the Grant family in that,â Matthew judged.
Bah~~
Could he be any worse at talking!
He could have at least said some nice words or whatever, right?
Blanca lifted the skirt and spun around in front of the mirror. A brief moment later, though, she remembered something. âYouâre not trying to hold a wedding, are you, Matthew?â They were just acting. If they had a wedding, wouldnât it be for real then? Thinking of the chaos of that night, Blancaâs face went red.
âYou donât want to?â
When she saw Matthewâs somewhat displeased face, Blanca hurriedly waved it off.
Heâd gone to the trouble of preparing a wedding gown, so how could she say that?
It was just...
Blanca decided to go roundabout. Lifting her skirts again, she walked in front of Matthew and said in volumes only the two could hear, âBut could we just not hold the wedding? I know you upscale socialites make a big deal out of it. Weâd have to notify a lot of people and spend a lot of money, not to mention if we get divorced later on, it wonât do...â
âDivorce?â
Matthewâs expression froze.
Theyâd only just got married for days, and this woman was thinking of divorce already?
âYeah. Itâs not like we are really in love, after all. Besides, didnât you say it was only to get me to ward off the people courting you? What if, from now on, you meet someone who you really love? Weâd have to divorce then.â
Blanca analyzed seriously.
Sheâd thought it through. She didnât want for food or clothing in the Grant family, and it was a happy life. If Matthew hadnât found someone he liked, she could play the wifeâs role just fine!
âHmph,â Matthew scoffed suddenly, and turned to leave straight away.

Somewhat confused, Blanca looked at Matthew, who only left his silhouette behind. She wanted to chase up to him, but found that she was still in her wedding gown, so she stopped...
