Chapter 148 Mr. Bulter was not in
Matthew didn’t continue their conversation. He stood up and said, “Let’s go! If the party begins, we will
not have a chance to meet Mr. Butler in private again.”
Blanca nodded and got quickly off the couch. She tidied up her clothes to cover her nervousness. A
hint of a smile touched Matthew’s lips. He liked to look at her when she got a little nervous. She was
really funny and brought him so much fun.
Matthew went in front, Blanca behind him obediently. As they walked, Blanca felt more and more
nervous. The mystery of her birth would be revealed. At this thought, her palms were so sweaty.
Before long, Matthew stopped before a door. Blanca had her eyes fixed on the door, as if her heart had
leapt into her throat. Matthew knocked, but there was no sound.
“He’s not in?” Blanca asked anxiously. She was nervous, confused and scared, different emotions
entwined.
Matthew frowned and knocked again. But in that moment, a sound of laughter came from the corridor.
Blanca followed the sounds and saw Malinda and Louise walking towards them. Property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Malinda drew level with them and said with a shining smile, “Hi, Matthew. Why are you here? Do you
want to see my grandpa?” Her smile was really sweet and attractive, as if the sun came to shine on
them.
“Yes. Is Mr. Butler here?” Matthew knew Malinda but not very well.
“No, he’s not here. He just left with someone,” Malinda said. She smiled more widely and Blanca could
see her white and pretty teeth.
Malinda and Matthew stood close to each other. One was handsome and the other was beautiful. It
seemed they were so well suited. Malinda looked at Matthew with eyes softly glowing. Blanca suddenly
realized that Malinda loved Matthew!
“Well. We will come next time,” said Matthew. He held Blanca’s hand and turned to leave.
“Matthew!” Malinda stopped them. “If you have something important, I can pass your message on to
Grandpa.”
“No. Thank you,” Matthew replied and kept walking.
Just then, Blanca twisted her feet and Matthew held her hands tightly to steady her. Blanca felt the
warmth of his hand. She hadn’t seen Mr. Butler, but she didn’t look depressed. She was sure that
Matthew would fulfill her wish.
Malinda stared after them and the smile vanished from her pretty face.
“Look at that perky little bitch, Malinda! She’s a thorough slut. I guess she has done everything she
could to seduce Matthew. I have to admit that her methods were pretty good. Look, Matthew was totally
smitten with her. By the way, have you noticed her pendant? It looks worth a lot of money,” said Louise
through clenched teeth.
“A pendant?” Malinda asked in surprise.
Her reaction struck Louise as odd. She said, “Yes, a pendant. It is …” She described to Malinda the
appearance of Blanca’s pendant.
