Please Be Gentle With Me Mr Grant novel Chapter 28

He’d actually found Blanca’s phone left on the sofa and was about to give it back to her. Then he happened to see Blanca taking Mary’s arm and shoving her off.

Mary must have seen him and faked an exaggerated fall.

Matthew knew that Blanca had her quirks, but she was simple and mild and would never go out of her way to offend other people. She must have been dragged into an argument with Mary.

And this was her first time coming to his office to deliver his meals, too!

Matthew was furious that such a thing had happened.

“Are you still not getting up, Miss Robinson?” Matthew said coldly.

As she heard what he said, Mary’s eyes reddened. “Mr. Grant, I’ve … I’ve fallen and I can’t get up.”

“Then you can stay down there.”

“Eh?” Mary blinked.

Blanca let out a puff of laughter. As he saw her smile, Matthew relaxed somewhat.

Mary looked at Lisa, who gave her a look. So she stood up and said that it wasn’t so serious. Apparently, she could stand now.

Blanca set her smile away and turned to Matthew. “Darling, I just bumped into this employee of yours and dirtied her clothes. She says her outfit’s worth fifteen thousand. Could you please pay her back?”

Matthew didn’t hear what Blanca said in too much detail after that “darling” of hers.

He knew that the girl was just playing it sappy in front of the people who’d tried to bully her, but that soft, sweet “darling” was music to his ears.

“That’s fine, but my wife’s outfit has gotten dirty as well. How are you planning on paying it back, Miss Robinson?”
