Chapter 152 Misunderstand nca


    Matthew frowned and his arm around nca tightened a little. He gave Peter a curt nod and then


    looked at nca. “Are you tired now? Let’s go home,” he said gently.


    “But … I…” nca said, avoiding Matthew’s eye. She took the hint that Matthew wanted to keep her


    away from Peter, but she was hesitant to obey him this time, for she really liked painting and didn’t


    want to miss her chance.


    When she saw Peter give her a hearty wink, nca made a decision. She took a deep breath and

    finally got the courage to say, “Peter is thest student of Mr. Butler and he’s willing to teach me. I must


    take this opportunity and l would like you to support me on this.” nca said and shook his arm, trying


    to convince him.


    nca knew those words would probably upset Matthew, but she had no other choice in this matter, for


    painting was her dream. To her surprise, Matthew said, “If you want to learn to paint, I can get you a


    better teacher, one of the most famous teachers. I could even try to convince Mr. Butler to teach you!


    So, now, we should go home first, nca.” There was a hint of anger and majesty in his voice.


    Upon hearing this, nca’s eyes were suddenly over bright, for Matthew’s words seemed a very


    enticing offer, but on second thought, she felt a few passing doubts. Matthew knew nothing about her


    dream, but Peter knew it!


    What if Matthew deceived her? What if he was just saying this to get her leave Peter? At this thought,


    nca looked down at the floor with disappointment, but she didn’t have the courage to say no. She


    saw peopleing and going at the party and knew her identity. She was not only nca, but also the


    wife of Matthew and Mrs. Grant. She represented the honor of the Grant family at this moment.


    “I’m leaving now. See you next time, Peter,” nca said, and managed a smile.


    Matthew noticed the disappointment on her face and misunderstood that nca hated to leave Peter.


    At this thought, Matthew looked at Peter coldly and frowned more deeply. His anger showed clearly in


    his face. Actually, he was good at hiding his emotions, but it seemed that he could not do that again


    after he was with nca. Come to think of it, even Matthew himself was surprised. He wondered if he


    fell in love with nca, but he immediately denied it. It was impossible for him, for he thought he just


    wanted to took advantage of her.


    As Matthew and nca walked out of the hall, a gust of cold wind stung nca’s face. Her sleeveless


    dress was not enough against the cold weather. So, she hugged her arms against the chill. Her arms


    were white and delicate, which made Matthew want to feel how soft the skin was.


    He noticed that nca looked quite depressed. “Are you missing Peter already?” he sneered.


    “What do you mean, Matthew?” nca could make neither head nor tail of this question. All she


    thought about just now was how to get in touch with Peter. She needed to seize this opportunity to


    make her dreamse true. She had heard the sarcasm in his voice, but she didn’t know why.


    “Don’t y dumb, nca. You know what I’m talking about, but remember who you are!” said Matthew


    sarcastically. Upon hearing this, nca was too incensed to speak. In order to vent his feelings,


    Matthew was trying to provoke nca. “Peter is still there. If you want to go back, I won’t stand in your


    way,” he continued.
