Matthew noticed that Blanca was staring at him. He didn’t show anything on his face and just held her hand, “Elizabeth, Blanca is my wife, not my servant. Please stop acting like a spoiled little princess.”
His wife...
Blanca looked up at him and felt something warm in her heart.
She felt that the hard feelings of being isolated, trashed and neglected suddenly had gone away.
She was not alone.
Blanca’s eyes got wet and she looked away, failing to hide the smile on her face. She stood straight confidently.
“Blanca, no one can treat you like that,” Matthew whispered to her, “except for me.”
“...”
Even though that was a little irritating, Blanca still felt quite touched.
She looked down and saw his hand holding hers. His hands were so big and warm. Blanca smiled and squinted her eyes. Her thick eyelashes left a shadow beneath her eyes. She squeezed his hands and said, “Even you cannot bully me. Or I’ll fight you!”
She could tell that Matthew was a bit shocked. But Blanca didn’t worry at all. They had a contract and it was normal for married couple to show off their happiness.
Especially when someone was rubbing it in her face. Did they really think she was a pushover?
Blanca leaned on Matthew’s arms and winked, “Honey, you were close to Elizabeth back then? She is the little sister you mentioned, right?”
