Chapter 178 Calm her down
When their car was on the road, Matthew held his wife gently in his arms. He sat quite still, anger still
surging through him. Just a moment ago, when he arrived at the room, he found the room had been
inundated with reporters. If he hadn’t let his bodyguards hold the reporters off, negativements
about nca would spread very quickly via the inte soon.
“How can you be so naive, nca?” Matthew murmured. nca was so immacte that she even had
never doubted the man’s identity and had just gone straight with him. He stroked nca’s face gently,
as if he was touching his most treasured thing. His driver cast a sideways nce at Matthew. He had
never seen Matthew like this. In his mind, Matthew was pompous and arrogant. He seemed to be a
man who did not care about anyone or anything. Come to think of it, the driver let out a long sigh, for he
knew Mrs. Grant was being set up this time.
When Matthew lifted nca out of the car, Curtis was waiting at the door. He had taken that rk
White to the basement and locked him up. As Matthew passed Curtis, he casually said, “Keep an eye
on the jerk! He needs to pay for what he has done.”
“Yes, Mr. Grant.”

Then Matthew nodded and took nca to their bedroom. Heid her in the bed and tucked her in. He
peered down at his wife, who was still in aa, frowning slightly. When he sat on the edge of the bed
beside nca, her eyes opened. She seemed a little mystified and looked around in surprise. Then
she looked at Matthew in disbelief. Was she dreaming? How did she get here? Did Matthew save her
again, just like before?
“Matthew,” nca called his name. She had never thought she could be saved. It was just like a
dream. She threw her arms round her husband’s neck. His warm breath came all round her. Holding
him made her feel safe. But when she thought about what just happened, she could not stop her
whole-body trembling.
“Don’t worry. I’m right here,” Matthew tried to calm her down.
Luckily, he arrived there, before rk White raped her, or nca’s life would be ruined. When Matthew
shed back to that moment in his mind, he was mad at Mr. White, but he didn’t think rk White was
the one behind this kidnapping, for he didn’t even know nca before this day. He needed to find out
who was behind this crime. The one who did it would pay the price.
nca looked up at Matthew, tear-stained and trembling. She was in her early twenties, and had never
gone through anything like this. She was really freaking out and it felt like a dream. nca let herself
rx in Matthew’s arms. This actually warmed her soul.
nca hugged Matthew so tightly that Matthew couldn’t move. “nca, it’s all right, you’re all right! Lie
in bed and have a good rest. I’ll ask Mrs. Brown to make you something good,” he said softly to nca.
Instead of letting go, nca’s arm was wrapped around his neck, with her soft breasts pressed against
his chest. Matthew could feel the heat in her neck and breasts, his heart beating fast.
Matthew put nca to bed and started to walk away, but next second, nca plucked at his coat and
said, “No, no. Please don’t go, Matthew. I was wrong.” She looked at Matthew with her cute, sad eyes,
looking miserable. Every time she closed her eyes, she saw Mr. White’s fierce face. She only felt safe
with Matthew.
“Have you learned your lesson?” Matthew stopped. He looked at nca and rubbed her check gently.
nca nodded and said, “Yes, I was so gullible and believed anything he said. If I had asked you first,
nothing bad would have happened.” She was regretful now. She should trust him and depend on him.
nca seemed to be deep in thought and caressed Matthew’s arm tenderly from side to side
automatically.
