Chapter 226 OK, I Will Work With You
Seeing her attitude suddenly cooled down, Matthew felt a little strange in his heart.
“Do you really want to know about your background?” Matthew looked at her keeping her head down,
like a primary school student being reprimanded by a teacher. But looking at her like this, he actually
wanted to comfort her inexplicably. Matthew wanted to bring her into his arms to gently soothe her.
But he didn’t do so.
"Well, I lived with my grandmother when I was very young. The other kids have their parents, but I
don’t. They said I was a wild child, saying I had no parents.” Blanca sneered at herself. It was as if
those memories were flaring their teeth and claws attacking her. She was saying so, and her nasal
sound was a bit heavy. She sniffed, not wanting Matthew to see her grievances, “Matthew, I don’t need
anything from you, because I know that you businessmen value benefits and profits. You would never
do things that are not profitable, so I am willing to work with you.”
Blanca said very calmly, but Matthew didn’t think he could bear it.
She was just a girl in her early twenties, why would there be desolation in her eyes? Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
“Alright? I will work with you.” Blanca smiled, “I promise I will follow your lead, to shield those bad
romances from you, to do whatever you want me to do, even... even in bed.” Saying so, shyness
flashed through Blanca’s face but faded away shortly afterward. She was all smiley again, “Is that OK?”
With a pleading tone, she was nothing more than trying to find out her own background. She
generously admitted, concealed her purpose without hesitation, and was even willing to offer to make
other deals.
Matthew suddenly became a little angry. If it was other men sitting next to Blanca now, would she also
do the same? In order to investigate your own background, would you use your own body as a price in
exchange?
The more Matthew thought about it, the worse he resisted it.
But somehow Matthew felt lucky. He felt lucky that it was himself who had been by her side.
“You will follow my lead from now on?”
Blanca thought Matthew would just stay silent, so it was a bit surprising he suddenly spoke. Blanca
pondered. And then she nodded quickly. She added afterward, “But don’t push it too far.”
“Haha.”
Matthew laughed, “You know what I am talking about.”
“Matthew...” Blanca spoke with a begging expression. She naturally knew what Matthew meant - He
wanted to keep her by his side and at the Empire Group, but for Blanca, the painting was really
important.
She was this way really touched a soft spot in Matthew’s heart, “Then answer one question from me.”
“Of course, I can answer one question- In fact, all the questions you have!”
“Why does it have to be Peter?” Matthew asked.
The light in Blanca’s eyes suddenly went out again, and she knew that Matthew would definitely hold
onto this matter and not let go. She knew that it was useless to lie in front of him, too. So Blanca told
him the truth, “Because he’s got potentials and he’s talented. Besides, he is a beloved student of Mr.
Butler.”
“So can I say that you approach him partly because of Mr. Butler?”
“You could say that.”
Matthew was stunned by Blanca’s honesty. Shortly afterward, Matthew smiled facing Blanca. He made
a confession to her as well, “About the pendant, I can tell you what I know.”
“What is it?”
“I did see that pendant before. It was a gift my mentor gave to his granddaughter when she was born.
And you’ve met his granddaughter before - Malinda Roach.
