Todd and Kylie had gotten married too, but when they were leaving civil services, the supposedly happy couple had started arguing.
Kylie snapped, âYouâre jealous seeing her get married to someone else, arenât you?â
âDonât make things up,â Todd huffed. Kylie was half right. The part he couldnât bear was that the man Blanca was marrying was a hundred times more capable than he was.
Kylie pushed on. âEver since you saw her, youâve been unfocused and off. You still have feeling for her, donât you!â
Todd avoided her eyes and took her hand, keeping his voice pleasant. âIf I still felt anything for her, why would I marry you? Donât overthink it and stress the baby out.â
Kylie knew that every time Todd lied to her, he avoided her eyes.
And ever since Todd broke up with Blanca and started officially going out with Kylie, sheâd felt that Todd regretted it, even calling Blancaâs name in his sleep. If it hadnât been for the fact that Kylie was with child, Todd might have just gone back and tried to get back together with Blanca.
Considering that, Kylie was furious.
What was so good about that Blanca and Todd just could not forget about her, and now she even got a man like Matthew Grant smitten with her!
Kylie couldnât take that lying down and decided to retaliate. She wasnât going to let that woman off easy.
It was already eleven or so in the morning, and Blanca rubbed her growling stomach, turning to the glacier of a man that was young master Grant.
âBefore the press conference, could I have something to eat? Itâd be embarrassing for you if I just faint in the conference.â
Matthew looked her up and down and said coldly. âDonât be so mouthy on the press conference.â
Blanca winced, then nodded. âHunger makes me mouth off. Iâll say less when Iâm full.â
Matthew shook his head impatiently, but still turned around and headed for a restaurant.
Heâd been planning on taking her to a private workshop to try on clothes for the press conference in the afternoon, and then they could go out to lunch, but she was messing up his plans.
It was a restaurant with three Michelin Stars, and the most expensive, luxurious restaurant Blanca had ever been in her life.
Blanca flipped through the menu and prodded Matthew twice if she really could just order anything.
Please Be Gentle With Me Mr Grant ï¤Chapter 5 Trashy Ex Accidental love II Matthew nodded and gave her permission and only then did she loosen up.
Knowing that sheâd been misdiagnosed, she felt like sheâd received a new lease on life. Now that sheâd taught a certain trash couple a lesson back there, her appetite was great, and she almost wanted to order some takeout and go directly back home.
As Matthew and the waiters looked on in shock, Blanca ate a meal for three all by her lonesome.
Compared to Matthew the elegant gentleman, her table manners were a sight to see.
âYou look thin. I didnât think youâd have an appetite like this.â
Matthew set down his knife and fork, dapping at the corner of his mouth with a napkin.
Blanca could hear that he was mocking her, but she didnât mind. She licked the grease off her lips and waved a chicken wing in her hands. âI grew up starving and ate every meal as my last. A high and mighty young master like you wouldnât get it.â
Matthewâs face sank slightly, and Blanca smiled, changing the subject. âHaving treated me to this much, donât worry. When the press conference comes, I wonât say a word, and Iâll be a good wife.â
âThat had better be the case.â Matthew glared at her.
Blanca made an OK gesture, then started gnawing at the chicken wing like a hyena.
Looking at the messy way she was eating, Matthewâs cold lips slowly curved up into a slight smile.
Even when she grew up, eating was a test of etiquette for him from his father. He couldnât enjoy food at all, and it had become habit. Heâd never had any particular requests with his food. If he could finish it elegantly and fill his belly, it was good.
Now that Blanca was eating so happily, his originally low appetite perked up. For the first time, he felt like a meal could also be something enjoyable.
