Chapter 222 The Hickey on Blanca
Chapter 222 The Hickey on Blanca
Blanca had no idea what Carrie was up to.
Yesterday Matthew had made Louise hold an embarrassing press conference for herself. But when
Blanca and Matthew arrived at the Grant family villa, all that gloominess seemed to be gone. Especially
Carrie was treating Blanca well on the contrary, which was super confusing to Blanca.
“Blanca, let me show you how to wrap up the leaves.”
Carrie took over what Blanca was holding and started showing Blanca how it should be done. She saw
Blanca pull up a piece of leaf from the tub, fold it up and fill it up with soaked rice - Carrie had to help
out.
And Blanca looked at Carrie, feeling so embarrassed.
It was already two in the afternoon. Blanca woke up around noon. After Blanca woke up, she dared not
look at Matthew’s eyes, especially after she had found a hickey on her body, which made her blush and
her heartbeat raise.
Blanca and Matthew had lunch in the old villa. Carrie was making rice dumplings, which made Blanca
really happy.
Blanca loved holiday celebrations. During holidays, it was fun and joyful in her household, and she
didn’t have to do any chores and housework. Grandma would buy her treats and snacks for the
holidays, too.
“Matthew, come with me. I need to speak with you.” Matthew was playing chess with old Mr. Grant in
the living room. The ladies in the family were gathering in the kitchen making rice dumplings. Wilbert
Grant walked up to Matthew with a serious look on his face at the moment.
Matthew was unsure what Wilbert was up to. He put down the chessman he was holding, “Dad, what is Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
it? We can talk here.”
“Matthew Grant.” Wilbert barely got mad. But he thought Matthew was out of line this time. Seeing
Wilbert was about to lash it out on Matthew, old Mr. Grant yawned, “Matthew my boy, it must be for
something important. You should meet your dad in the study. I am getting sleepy anyway. I am going to
take a nap.”
Old Mr. Grant trusted Matthew as always, however, he was also a little dissatisfied with the rumors
about Blanca out there during this period of time. He did not intend to save Matthew from this matter.
Seeing his grandfather going upstairs, Matthew went silent and directly nodded toward his father
Wilbert.
Wilbert looked quite upset. He slammed the door after Matthew and himself had entered the study. He
looked Matthew in the eye, “What the heck have you done?”
A few days ago when he arrived home, Carrie complained in tears that Matthew and Louise were
getting on a bad term...
Wilbert never minded gossips like this until Carrie mentioned that Matthew had messed with the young
master of the White family!
“Matthew, are you seriously thinking that you can do whatever you want now that you are in charge of
the Empire Group, and that you can just go ahead and mess with others without thinking through the
consequences and your younger sister’s safety?”
Wilbert patted the table angrily when saying so, looking really pissed off.
The study was well sound-proofed, so they weren’t worried about being heard by the people outside.
But somehow Matthew seemed not to take Wilbert’s words seriously at all. After Matthew entered the
study, he walked straight to the desk and poured himself a cup of tea.
“I am speaking with you. What the heck?” Wilbert was really angry.
Wilbert always had faith in Matthew for almost everything, except that Matthew and Louise never had
been the best siblings for each other, which always had been bothering Wilbert all these years past.
Matthew took a sip of tea and said coldly, “I heard you.”
“Then you owed me an explanation.” Wilbert’s anger was softened up and he said so.
Matthew’s fingertips tapped the tabletop. Then he suddenly raised his head, his sharp eyes swept over,
and his voice was still cold, “They all deserved to be treated that way.”
