Book:Mr Grant, Please Be Gentle Published:2024-5-29

The first time I saw her, I was glad that Matthew had let me wear a dress.
At first, Blanca was not happy that Matthew let her come in a dress.
It is to participate in a competition, why is there a dress code?
Matthew had to say that the dress code was to show respect to the competition, so he had to ask Blanca to wear a dress, and Blanca couldn’t resist Matthew, so she agreed. Now it seems that everything has been arranged.
“Blanca, do you think the judges already have an idea in mind? I think your design is so good, it will definitely win the award.”
Mary said, holding a glass of red wine.
Blanca smiled, “Actually, I don’t know.” Her heart was all about Matthew, and she didn’t know why Matthew wasn’t answering his phone …
When Blanca was worried, a judge came towards them, Mary immediately poked Blanca’s arm, the two said hello to the judge, the judge looked at Blanca.
“You are Blanca, right? Your design, I appreciate it.”
“You can speak Chinese?” Blanca was a little surprised. Because the other party was communicating in Chinese.
The jury teacher nodded and extended his hand to Blanca, who excitedly went up to shake hands, “Hello, hello, thank you for liking my work.”
Blanca was very grateful to Matthew at this moment, if it wasn’t for Matthew, I’m afraid she wouldn’t have the courage to stand here and talk to people.
They were talking happily, and Mary was happy to listen next to them. Who wouldn’t be happy to be close to someone from the upper echelons of the design world?
But perhaps because of the etiquette, Blanca had drunk a lot of wine and was too embarrassed to refuse.
When the party was about to break up, everyone went back to rest.
Blanca was slightly drunk and rested in the sofa for a while. When she opened her eyes again, she found that there was no one else in the living room.
When she asked, she realized that it was raining and everyone had quickly dispersed.
“Is it raining outside?”
“Yes Miss, do you need to call a car for you?” The waiter said.
Because the waiter’s Chinese was rather broken, Blanca didn’t understand too well for a while, waved her hand, and waited until she went out to get a taxi, but found that her phone was about to run out of battery.
Oh yeah, in this place, she didn’t even know what taxi app she should use …
Blanca suddenly felt quite defeated.
The cold wind was blowing, Blanca, who was only wearing her dress, hugged her arms tightly, she tried to call Matthew two more times, but she couldn’t get through …
It’s been three or four hours, where the hell is Matthew?
“Drip, your voice will go to the message box.”
A mechanical female voice came from the other side of the phone, the rain gradually became heavier, Blanca’s body was covered with a layer of fine goose bumps, the cold she hugged her arms tightly, “Matthew, where the hell have you been? I’m at …”
Before Blanca could finish her words, her phone suddenly turned off.
She looked at her phone anxiously, and there was no battery left at all.
The place of this competition was originally quite remote, and even the venue of the banquet was improvised, there was no place to rest ………..
