Bumpkin's Rich Handsome Husband

Before he could finish, Veronica waved her hand. “Since you’re quite busy, it’s best for you to not go. I

can just visit Master Crayson alone.”

Saying that, she let out another sigh. “After I started working at the auto shop, I’ve only gone to work for

a day, and I’ve been on leave ever since. Tell Miguel for me, or I’ll be in trouble if they don’t give me my

commission.”

It cost her a slap to finally sell a car at the auto shop. If she didn’t receive her commission because she

didn’t go to work, it would be a big loss.

“I’ll let Miggy know later.”

Knowing that Veronica didn’t want him to visit Crayson with her, Matthew didn’t force her. After the two

of them washed up and changed their clothes, they drove away from Twilight Condominium.

As Crayson was still working as a security guard at First Meeting, he was still in Bloomstead, but he

had the day off today and was resting in his apartment.

The day before, Veronica and Crayson agreed to meet that day, so he had taken a leave of absence

from the wedding company. With nothing to do in the morning, he was walking around the

neighborhood when he saw Veronica getting out of Matthew’s car.

“Little brat?” His clouded eyes lit up with a kind smile when he saw Veronica.

Ever since Veronica left for Castron, Crayson had been living in fear, and it was only after learning she

had safely returned home that he was able to let out a sigh of relief. It was as if he was an elderly father

who had watched his child grow up and was worried whenever she was away.

However, when he recalled that Veronica did not come to see him after returning to Destor, he couldn’t

help but feel jealous. Looking furious, he shot her a glare. “I thought you had forgotten about me.”

Upon hearing his voice, Veronica tilted her head and looked over, only to see Crayson walking over

with a frown and a gloomy expression, his hands behind his back.

“Hehe, hello, Master Crayson.” Veronica smiled fawningly and skipped over to him.

However, she did not expect Crayson to glare at her, directly avoiding her extended arms, before he

went around and walked straight to the side of Matthew’s car.

Crayson refusing her offered embrace made her stomp her feet with anger.

“What’s wrong? Are you closer to Matthew than me now?” Crayson asked bitterly.

Naturally, Veronica could understand the meaning of his tone. She smiled and immediately walked to

Crayson’s side, reaching out and wrapping her arms around his neck. “Oh, are you jealous?”

Though she teased him on the surface, she felt extraordinarily happy in her heart. She knew that

Crayson treated her like his own child and had watched her grow up, so it was inevitable that he would

be jealous now that he felt she only had eyes for Matthew.

“Move aside. Out of sight, out of mind; I’d much rather not see you every day.” Crayson waved his hand

with a look of boredom, but the corners of his mouth carried a smile that could not be hidden.

Just then, Matthew came out of the car and closed the door before greeting Crayson. “Master Crayson,

why are you downstairs?”

Neither Matthew nor Veronica knew that Crayson had been so preoccupied with thoughts of them that

he could not sit still at home and eventually came downstairs to wait for them. However, he naturally

would not voice his thoughts.

“It was suffocating in the house, so I came out to get some fresh air.” He roughly came up with an

excuse and brushed it off before saying, “Let’s go into the house and talk.”

Veronica frowned slightly, a glint flickering past her eyes as she intimately held onto Crayson’s arm.

“Matt still has work to do. You should let him go to the company. He has a lot of work piled up in the

past few days when he went to Castron.”

She had some personal matters she wanted to talk to Crayson that she did not want Matthew to be

present for.

Matthew understood Veronica’s thoughts and immediately agreed, “Yes, there’s still some work to be

done at…”

“Put all of that aside.” Crayson glared at Matthew. “Your company’s business is important, but it’s not

that urgent. Follow me upstairs.” His final three words were said in a commanding tone.

Crayson was no less shrewd than the other two, and they could know each other’s thoughts with just

one look, so how could he not tell that Veronica wanted Matthew to leave? Still, he did have something

important to discuss with them.

Matthew stood in front of him and did not respond, but raised his fisted hand and gently tapped his

nose, raising his eyes to look at Veronica, as if asking for her opinion.

Veronica shrugged helplessly. “Since Master Crayson has spoken, let’s go up together.”

So, the three of them headed into the apartment together.

The place where Crayson was living was the suite next to Veronica’s, and it was the same one that

Matthew had bought before.

When they entered the living room, Crayson gestured for them to sit down while he made tea for them.

Sitting next to a teapoy, he prepared the tea cups while waiting for the water to boil.

After Crayson made a pot of tea while conversing with them, he placed a cup in front of Matthew and

looked at him with raised eyebrows. “What are your plans with Roni?”

Immediately, he went straight to the point. Earlier, he had aggressively forced Matthew to follow them

upstairs just to talk to them about this matter. Perhaps for others, finding a partner was just a matter of

being a good match for each other, but Veronica had a different status and background, and was

destined to have a future full of ups and downs, so he needed to know what Matthew’s intentions were.

Hearing that, Veronica was stunned and looked at Crayson in astonishment.

Then, she looked at Matthew, only to see him calmly picking up the cup on the table and blowing on the

hot steam of the tea before he took a small sip and said, “I, Matthew Kings, have never regretted

anything.”

With this sentence, he was undoubtedly making a statement to Crayson and Veronica.

Veronica was not particularly surprised by his answer, but only let out an imperceptible sigh that was

filled with pressure. She knew how good Matthew treated her, but she also deeply loved him, so how

could she bear to watch him step into danger?
