Blanca didnât dare sit by his side any longer and she stood up, blushing.
âNo, itâs enough, Iâm ... Iâm heading back.â
She took the lunchbox and fled the office.
Matthew looked at her receding back and suddenly felt that a bright spot had come into his dry monotonous life. He didnât even notice the smile creeping up his face.
Blanca ran out in a panic and was about to head into the elevator when a woman with wavy hair rushed out of the elevator herself, and the two bumped into each other.
The womanâs hot tea spilled out and splashed all across the two.
The woman let out a shriek.
âAre you okay?â
Both of them had dirtied their clothes, and both of them had been careless, but Blanca was aware of how sheâd rushed, and seeing the womanâs white clothes getting stained made her feel a surge of guilt.
âDo I look okay?â
The woman glared at Blanca. âThese clothes are new! Iâm only putting them on for the first time today!â
As she spoke, she wiped at her clothes irritably. Blanca looked on. It seemed like a high-end outfit, and it was white. With a huge patch now running down the front, it didnât look good, and it probably wasnât easy to clean either.
So Blanca offered, âThen ... then Iâll pay you back.â
âPay me back? You think you can afford it? My cousin bought this for me overseas! Itâs a designer piece, worth fifteen thousand!â
Blancaâs eyes widened. Fifteen thousand??? For a dinky little white suit?!
She couldnât help but sigh at how rich people lived in their own world.
But well, she had dirtied her suit. Sure, her own clothes were stained, but apparently, her dress wasnât that expensive.
Please Be Gentle With Me Mr Grant ï¤Chapter 25 How Do You Want to Resolve It?
Accidental love II ï¤Chapter 100 Youâre So Kind Mysterious Mr.Richard Matthew had had Curtis buy her the dress. Sheâd asked him how much it costed so she could pay Matthew back, but Curtis had said that it wasnât that expensive, and itâd just look bad on Matthew if she paid him back for clothes. Since Curtis had said that much, Blanca hadnât been so churlish as to refuse the gesture.
âIt might be an expensive outfit, but it might come out in the wash. How about this? Iâll pay for the fees, and if it canât be cleaned, I ... Iâll pay you back.â
Just thinking of paying fifteen thousand alone hurt Blanca, but she wasnât the type of person to shirk responsibility.
As for how to get the fifteen thousand itself, sheâd thought it through. Matthew was the head of a whole company, and he should have the money. She could just borrow from him, then work hard to pay him back.
At that moment, someone snorted with laughter, and a familiar voice rang out.
âSeems like you donât know about fashion too well, Miss Roach. Maryâs clothes canât be washed.â
Blanca turned and saw Lisa Anderson sashaying over.
âCanât wash? What kind of outfit is that?â Blanca demanded, displeased.
The woman called Mary sneered.
âWhereâd this country bumpkin come from, Lisa? Whyâs she on our floor?â
Lisa didnât rush to introduce Blanca. She still bore a grudge. Since Mary didnât know who Blanca was, she might as well use her to embarrass Blanca.
