Blanca had been looking expectantly at Matthew with her hair soft, and that last line of his broke her. Matthew had already walked down first.
Blanca made a face at his back, sticking her tongue out and pushing her nose up. Then Matthew suddenly turned around and reminded her, âThink up a way to deal with the rumors from yesterday.â
â...â S-so he saw everything?
What, was the Empire Groupâs PR team just for show?
Blanca suppressed her internal emotions, slunk out of bed, washed, and got changed. She was in a proper blouse and skirt this time, and Matthew was waiting for her below the stairs.
She ate, finishing the deal slowly. Then Curtis jogged over, his expression anxious. The moment he stepped inside, he said frantically, âBad news, Mr.
Grant.â
In the phone video, Kylieâs tear-streaked face was turned to the camera. She was sniffling. âI was friends of many years with Blanca. We met each other in high school, but she dropped out after going there for a year. Oh... right, Blancaâs family is poor, and she just has a grandmother, but that canât stop her from leading a good life! Iâm begging you, donât spread these rumors around anymore. She managed to get to where she is today, and yesterday was just an accident. Itâs not all smooth sailing between best friends, you know?â
On the way to the office, Matthew was emotionless and expressionless.
Blanca ground her teeth. That Kylie was stuck to her like a cowpat!
âThought of what to say later yet?â
Matthew suddenly turned to look at her Blanca hesitated and nodded.
An hour ago, theyâd seen at home how Kylie was sobbing and begging the reporters not to dig up Blancaâs past â all while spilling everything about Blancaâs past herself.
Well, so what, Blanca was honest and upstanding enough for both of them!
She grimaced, and the car rolled to a stop before the Empire Group Building. Reporters with their cameras were surrounding the area, but couldnât get close with the bodyguards there.
âTheyâre here!â
Please Be Gentle With Me Mr Grant ï¤Chapter 46 Is the PR Department for Show Accidental love II ï¤Chapter 100 Youâre So Kind Mysterious Mr.Richard ï¤Chapter122 Richard's Stepmother Somebody called out, and the reporters swarmed. Blanca had been prepared, but she still shivered upon seeing the sight.
âFrightened?â A low voice rang out by her ear.
âHeh. I, Blanca Roach, have never been frightened.â Blanca shot Matthew a mild look, her fingers brushing the pendant on her neck.
The moment the car door opened, the reporters shoved the cameras and microphones in Blancaâs face.
Blanca frowned, but she still kept polite.
âMrs. Grant, do you know Miss Kylie Farley?â
âDid you do all the things she said you did? We found that your ex-boyfriend went by the name of Todd Small. How did you snag Mr. Grant?â
âPlease face our questions! Are you the same as depicted in the video?â
â...â
Matthew looked at how Blanca stood unshaken, and grew more appreciative of her. Faced with outsiders, though, he still walked up and draped one arm over Blancaâs shoulder, giving her plenty of an image boost out there.
