Chapter 42 You’re My Wife
After lunch, Matthew didn’t make Blanca stay.
After walking out the office, Lisa brought Blanca out. This time, Blanca heard clearly what the others
were saying about her.
“Is this the rumored Mrs. Chairman? She doesn’t give off a ladylike aura at all…”
“Yeah, why’d the chairman take a shine to such a person?”
“Didn’t you see the magazine today? The chairman even went on a date with her in the morning, and
she was wearing just that!”
Hearing the swell of public opinion, Blanca’s footsteps slowed.
Getting into the elevator, Lisa slid in as well just before the doors closed.
Blanca greeted Lisa with a well-trained gesture. “Good afternoon, Miss Anderson.”
“…good afternoon.” Lisa hesitated, then showed a professional smile. “Don’t mind those comments
from earlier, Mrs. Grant. The chairman’s young and charming, and colleagues in the office tend to
fantasize about him. Now that their fantasies have shattered, they’re attacking you for it.”
That did make sense.
After all, Matthew wasn’t just one of the most eligible bachelors in Oakshire, he also held a whole city’s
economic lifeline in his hands. With such an excellent specimen, everyone might have been better off if
he’d stayed single.
Now a random pedestrian like her had just snatched him up, so of course the masses were furious!
“So that’s what it is. Then, Miss Anderson – do you look Matthew as well?”
“Oh? That’s…” Lisa didn’t think that Blanca would just say that out of nowhere, and hurriedly explained,
“Since Mr. Grant is so brilliant, as his subordinates, we naturally look up to him. Still, we only admire
him at work and learn from him; that’s all.”
Blanca smiled and didn’t say anything else.
They were both women and didn’t need to say much. It was clear just from Lisa’s eyes that she had
Matthew on her mind.
Blanca had brought it up deliberately to let her know not to try useless tricks or plots. She might look
easy to pick on, but she wasn’t a victim.
On Lisa’s end, she grew a bit hesitant. Blanca was the wife of the chairman, after all. If Matthew heard
anything, she’d be done for.
At that moment, there came a twist!
“You bitch, Blanca!”
Before Blanca could do anything, there came a loud WHAP and a slap landed swiftly across her face.
Her cheek burned and there came the sound of breaths being sucked in around her.
“Ma’am…”
Lisa looked in shock at the mad woman before her, but Blanca waved her off, wearing a sneer. “I can
handle this myself.”
Blanca touched her face. It was probably swollen.
She just had to move to feel her skin throb.
Man, that was a real blow.
“So you steal my boyfriend and come after me outright? You’ve got some nerve, Kylie!” Blanca didn’t Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
want to make a scene at the Empire Group Building, but she wasn’t about to let herself get walked all
over!
Now that Kylie was up and stepping in her foot, there was no reason to just let her at it.
“You… you bitch, you… You must have done something to Todd that day we met. He hasn’t come back
home for days now! That’s what you are, a bitch!”
Kylie’s eyes reddened resentfully and she specifically chose words as ugly as possible.
