The shimmering lights from the delicate chandelier above her blinded Blanca for a second.
Did she just hear him mocking her?
“Matthew, I’m waiting for your explanation.” She clenched her fists. She was on her knees on her bed at this moment and there were tears in her eyes.
Blanca looked up and stared at Matthew.
She was aware that Matthew definitely knew something!
“I never thought I was the child of the Roach family. But don’t you think you owe me an explanation?”
Since he had already known the pendant was related to Mr. Butler, he must have some thoughts and guesses about this. Matthew was smart enough to do some investigation.
Blanca almost thought that he had been aware of the truth.
Matthew was silent.
He just leaned on the bed and didn’t even look at her.
This agitated her. As time passing by, Blanca thought he wouldn’t tell her the truth. She suddenly got a strong sense of powerlessness because she was nothing comparing to Matthew and she didn’t even get to command him to do anything.
She got out of bed and wanted to leave the room.
But just as her feet touched the ground, Matthew pulled her back in bed...
Blanca started to struggle but he was so much stronger than her. After a few minutes, not only was she unable to get rid of Matthew, she was also a little out of breath. In the end, she just let him lay her down and her eyes were empty.
“Mr. Grant, you already refuse to tell me the truth. And now you don’t want me to get some sleep in another room?”
“Oh, why another room?”
“Because I don’t wanna see you.” She rolled her dark eyes and fixed them at his face.
Blanca wasn’t so polite and careful around Matthew like she did before anymore, which probably resulted from the fact that they had already slept together.
Matthew found this quite lovely. He said, “Oh, when did I say that...I won’t tell you the truth?”
“You want to tell me now?”
Her doe eyes started to sparkle.
She didn’t even give a second thought about their position right now and looked at him eagerly.
Damn...
The look on her face made him thirsty and get a strange feeling...He coughed and let go of her, looking quite unnatural, “You were right. That pendant of yours is exactly the same as that of the first daughter of the Roach family.”
Matthew looked away and said that calmly.
