Hahaha... Wasnât it a bit shocking Blanca said that the chairman had left her alone at the party? Was she sure she wasnât trying to ruin the chairmanâs reputation?
On the other hand, Curtis suddenly felt a sharp stare at him so he stopped laughing.
âWhatâs so funny? Why donât you continue laughing?â Matthew glanced at Curtis with his profound eyes.
He didnât have a pleased look on his face.
In the surveillance footage, Blanca was already speaking boldly and freely.
âWell, 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.â 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 chairmanâs office.
In addition, Matthew had ordered him to pull up the real-time surveillance video of the conference room.
âWhatâs with all that BS, Curtis? Do you miss Africa?â
âNo, no, no... Mr. Grant, please donât. I am still getting over with the tan I got last time.â Hearing Matthewâs 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 didnât have a clue that she was observed by Matthew the entire time. She wiped her tears away figuratively, âIn 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.â
The journalists were taking notes while they listened to Blanca sharing this unfortunate experience in tears.
Blanca was from humble origins but she didnât 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!
âBut fortunately Matthew came back to my rescue because he got worried about me!â
Please Be Gentle With Me Mr Grant 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.
âMiss Roach, can you please tell us how Mr. Matthew Grant proposed to you?â
âFor this, I am sorry, since we both preferred to keep this a secret between us.. Anyway, Matthew did try his best. Letâs switch the focus of our conversations to the companyâs work and development.â Blanca was acting like a trophy wife in a shy and pretty posture.
...Watching Blanca almost turn it into a gossipy tea party, Curtis couldnât stand it anymore - If this went on, it would hurt Matthewâs reputation.
âMr. Grant, do you need me to...â
âItâs not necessary.â
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 wasnât telling the truth.
No matter what she said, Matthew had to push through and endure it.
Seeing Matthew get up and take off, Curtis finally burst into laughter bending over the desk.
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, âMatthew 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.â
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?
âWe 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?â
