Bumpkins Rich Handsome Husband Chapter 22
Bumpkins Rich Handsome Husband
Veronica joked lightheartedly.
Seeing that she was here, Xavier put away his mobile phone, pushed open the car door, and got out of the car. âWhat can I do? God made m e so charming that all those young ladies love throwing themselves at me.â
âBah, how shameless.â
Veronicaâs face showed contempt.
In the whole of Bloomstead, although Xavier was a âswingerâin everyoneâs mouth, no one dared to be s o presumptuous like Veronica in front of him due to the strength of the Crawford Family.
Only Veronica, who was like a sister to him, could ruthlessly nag him on his behavior.
âLetâs go eat! I didnât eat lunch so that I can cost you a big one today.â
âTsk, you say that, but God knows which womanâs bed you were in this afternoon.â
The two walked to the food stall while talking.
Veronica naively thought that Xavier had never been to a food stall before, so she took the initiative to order a lot of food.
While waiting for the food, she realized that the people around her threw them strange looks from time to time.
âDamn, that handsome guy is so rich. He is driving the latest Maserati, which is worth more than 30 mill ion.â
âOh, Lord! The girl sitting across from him is so damn ugly.
âShe is so ugly, and yet she can meet rich and handsome guys. I guess her family conditions are also g ood.â
âWell, that makes sense.â
They could naturally hear the obvious whispers of the crowd.
Veronica didnât think too much of it. Instead, she looked at Xavier. âHow about⦠we sit inside?â
She was afraid that Xavier wouldnât be able to bear the strange looks and gossip.
âYouâre afraid that Iâd feel ashamed? Youâre so cute.â
As Xavier said that, the boss brought over iwo bottles of beer. Briskly, he took a pair of chopsticks and
pried off the caps, poured two glasses of wine with a disposable cup, and took a sip. âAs far as I can remember, unpleasant word s have been ringing in my cars everyday, but I still live at case. Well, we shouldnât pay too much attenti on to other peopleâs opinions but live for ourselves.â He raised his eyebrows and looked at Veronica. âO nly by practicing to be invincible will you not be hurt by gossip, and it is also a means of protecting yourself. Come on. Che ers.â
âI canât drink.â
Veronica knew that she had a child in her womb, so she could only lie. âIâm having my period. Iâll have s ome tea.â
She had known Xavier for three to four months, but most of their interactions were in the Twilight Club.
It was their first time coming out and having dinner like this.
From his words, Veronica discovered that perhaps Xavier was not the kind of trash that outsiders saw as a goodâforânothing.
At the same time, at the Larson Residence.
When Floch got the information that he sent his people to investigate, he rushed back to the Larson Re sidence and told Tiffany and Rachel the results. âVeronica Murphy has been pregnant with Matthewâs c hild for more than two months now.â
âWhat, pâ
pregnant? Impossible. Veronica has such an ugly face. How could Matthew even bring himself to sleep
with her?â
Tiffany could not accept such a result no matter what.
She picked up the documents on the table. In addition to various examinations, there were also photos
of Matthew and Veronica appearing in the hospital.
âI heard that Old Mrs. Kings gave Young Master Mathew medicine in order to let him have children. Wh o knew that Veronica ran into Matthew by mistake, and the two naturally slept togetherâ¦â
Floch explained.
However, his squared, darkâskinned face was full of anger. âThis b*tch has such good luckâ
Rachel sat on the sofa and carefully looked at the investigation results without saying a word.
On the contrary, Tiffany couldnât stay calm. âNo, this canât be. If Veronicaâs child is born, how can I marr y Matthew?â
âTiffany, calm down!â
Rachel snorted softly when she saw Tiffanyâs emotions burst out. âYou have had a good relationship wit h Matthew Kings in the past two months. Based on what he said, he is very satisfied with you, which m eans that he does not love Veronica. Why are you angry?â
âBut Veronica is pregnant with his child! I will never let that child see the world.â
Tiffanyâs face was red with anger, and her eyes were full of killing intent.
It was a terrifying look.
âAre you crazy? Donât forget who you are now. The thing with Veronicaâs parents hasnât subsided yet, a nd you are already thinking of messing with Matthewâs child? Do you still want to marry into the Kings F amily?â Rachel scolded. âIf you donât curb your arrogance and impatience, you wonât be able to make g reat achievements in your life.â
After being reprimanded by Rachel, Tiffany finally calmed down.
As she sat on the sofa, her eyes were red with anger. She hated that b*tch, Veronica, to her core.
Just as the few fell silent, Tiffanyâs cell phone rang.
She sobbed, took out a tissue to wipe her tears, and looked at the screen of her mobile phone, only to r ealize that it was Matthewâs call.
âTiffany immediately regained her composire, answered the phone, and said in a sofi, cottonâ
like voice, âMatthew?â
âWould you like to marry into the Kings Family?â
Matthew was straight to the point, and his words were clear and concise, âHuh? What? ⦠I didnât hear what you said Mathew.â
How could she not?
She clearly heard that Matthew was asking her if she wanted to marry into his family!
However, the news was too sudden and caught her off guard, It was as if a huge sum of money fell from the sky and knocked her duris.
âDo you want to marry me?â
âOâ
Of course, of course I want to.â Tiffany was belligerent with excitement. âBut⦠Matthew, your proposal is As the invitation had come in such an impromptu moment, all of the coy tactics such as playing hard to g Matthew asked her if she wanted to marry into his family!!
âIf you do, I will make it public in four days that I will get engaged to you.â
Veronicaâs child was already two months along, and Matthew knew that things could not be delayed any longer, so he could only get engaged as soon as possible.
That way, after Veronicaâs child was born, he and Tiffany would get married, and the timing would be jus Tiffany was overjoyed and suddenly felt that all her efforts were worth it.
She nodded. âI do. I do want to marry you.â
No one knew how excited and happy Tiffany was at the moment.
âIt was the Larson Familyâs greatest honor and her greatest wish to become Matthewâs bride.
âAlright. Iâll ask Thomas to discuss other matters with your family soon.â
Matthewâs attitude was indifferent. Even when discussing engagement with Tiffany, he was still as cold a âwhich made it difficult to understand his emotions.
After hanging up the phone, Tiffany emotionally looked at Rachel with a pair of red eyes, and then direct âReally?â
âYes, Iâm sure. Iâm very sure.â
âThatâs good, thatâs good, my dear. Youâre a noble young lady, and marrying Young Master Matthew mus Rachel patted her shoulder with great relief, seemingly in a very delighted mood.
Tiffany, who was beaming with excitement, took a while to calm downâ
but her face suddenly looked as if it was void of joy.
As she looked at the investigation documents on the table, she frowned. âMatthew is about to get engag
