After walking out of the HR, Blanca came to the creative department. Anna Gregor was the department manager. She, about thirty, looked pretty smart.
Anna arranged Blancaâs desk and said, âItâs your first day in our department. I am not going to assign you tasks, but you should read this employee handbook first.â
âOK.â Blanca nodded and took the handbook. Then she sat at her desk and read it carefully. Before long, she was getting sleepy. She tried her best to remember the contents in the book, but she found she got a memory like a sieve.
At the end of the day, Anna asked Blanca to do a summary for the dayâs work. Blanca nodded obediently. She was not so good at writing, as well as using a computer. For this reason, while everyone else was off work, she was still typing.
It was getting dark, but Blancaâs work was not yet done. She looked anxious for she was not good at typing. She felt a little angry with herself, but she didnât stop what she was doing. Several hours later, when she finished her last document, she rubbed her eyes and stretched to relax.
âAre you finished?â said a voice behind her.
Blanca looked around, and saw Matthew standing near her. In the lamplight of the office, Matthewâs face was gentler. âWhy are you here?â asked Blanca brightly.
âThis is my company.â
âOh! Silly me!â Blanca said awkwardly. She had heard something about Matthew from Curtis before. He said Matthew was a workaholic. Except for work, he was not interested in anything.
After clearing her desk, Blanca stood up and said, âIâm finished. Itâs time to get off.â
âYou definitely should have already been gone.â Matthew looked around the empty office and looked displeased.
Blanca smiled awkwardly. âIâm sorry I forgot to take a look at the time.â
Matthew didnât speak. His time was important but he had been waiting ten minutes here.
When they walked out the door together, Blanca couldnât control her curiosity and asked, âYouâve been waiting for me?â She didnât know how long he stood there. He didnât interrupt her work and just stood quietly. At this thought, Blanca felt warm in her heart and her face broke into a radiant smile.
âIâm not waiting for you,â Matthew said stubbornly.

âI was enjoying the views,â Matthew said and walked quickly down the stairs.
What? It was not a perfect lie! Blanca smiled even more widely. Then she hurried to catch up with him and slipped her arm through his, sort of subconsciously. âAre you shy? Ha-ha! Donât deny it. I know you were waiting for me. I didnât expect you are so kind and thoughtful behind the mask of arrogance,â Blanca said, with a broad smile on her face.
Matthew made no reply. He tried to withdraw his arms, but when he saw Blancaâs smiling face, he paused. Since Blanca appeared in his life, everything was more exciting and more fun.
âHey. Why are you so quiet? OK. Iâll take that as an acknowledgment,â said Blanca, still laughing.
They were on the way to an underground parking lot. Blanca smiled and hopped joyfully and Matthew seemed to enjoy her enthusiasm and vitality, if not unexpectedly.
Then, Matthew strode straight to his car and disappeared from view.
âBlanca!â A voice suddenly echoed behind Blanca. Next second, Todd run toward Blanca and pulled her into his tight embrace. Blanca got a shock and tried to pull away from him, but he was so strong that she could barely move. She could smell the whiskey on Toddâs breath.
âGet off me! Get off me, Todd!â Blanca called, at the top of her voice. The drunk Todd made her feel scared.
Todd didnât relax his grip. He had too much wine and had waited a long time. At the moment, he had lost his minds. He put his head in Blancaâs neck and said in a low voice, âForgive me, Blanca! Will you come back to me? I canât live without you, and I thought I could fight it, but I canât. I have bought us a house. Letâs get married, OK?â
âGet married?â sneered Blanca. No one could help her now. Matthew was her only hope but he had gone to the parking lot. Blanca tried to calm herself down. âRemember! You had married Kylie!â
âI am going to divorce her,â Todd said loudly.
