Bumpkins Rich Handsome Husband Chapter 764

Chapter 764 Telling the Others About the Gathering During lunch, they gathered around the dining table. Veronica was carefully chewing on the food Matthew had prepared and could not help but notice how much his cooking skills had improved.

Yet, such a perfect man could give his life for her and even willingly become a servant. She took in all of his sacrifices, and the guilt inside her increased as the days passed.

“By the way, I’m going out tonight.” As she stabbed a roasted squash, she took a bite and looked down.

“Liam invited me out.”

A second ago, there were still sounds of cutlery hitting porcelain plates, but as soon as her words fell, the dining table was plunged into silence. Even with her head lowered, Veronica could feel burning gazes aimed at her, but she remained calm and continued eating while pretending not to notice them.

Crayson’s expression was as dark as storm clouds as he instinctively looked at Destiny opposite him, meeting her eyes. Before he could say anything, Mateo could not hold back his temper and spoke up, “You’re going out with Liam? Roni, can’t you tell that he’s trying to hook up with you?” His words were very straightforward.

After scooping some baked fish onto her plate, Veronica deboned her piece of fish while replying calmly, “Of course, I can.”

“Yet you’re still going out with him?”

Raising his voice, Mateo had the words ‘I’m not happy’ written all over his face, and he was looking at her like she was an idiot.

“Zac and the others will be there as well. They are all my acquaintances.” In the end, she explained a little. While speaking, she deliberately glanced at Crayson and noticed him releasing a sigh of relief after she said that.

“Grandpa, aren’t you going to do something about this?” Mateo looked at Crayson, waiting for him to chastise her, but Crayson did not make a sound after a long while.

Instead, he continued to eat his food. “She has her ideas, so there’s no use for me to say anything.”

“Fine, then. I’ll go too,” Mateo added.

“No way!”

“No way!”

Before Mateo could finish speaking, Destiny and Crayson’s voices immediately sounded as they mercilessly rejected that idea.

Mateo was at a loss for words. With a tense expression, his mouth was still hanging at his last word as he looked at Destiny with a stunned expression, which instantly turned gloomy.

“You guys… You… Fine…” After realizing that his words were futile, he turned to Veronica and pleaded, “Roni, bring me with you. I’ll be very obedient and won’t pull your leg or cause any trouble.”

“No need. I’ll bring Iron Pillar with me. He’ll suffice.”

He’s my husband, so I must bring him with me.

“That Iron Pillar is an idiot who can’t translate. How can bringing him be more useful than bringing me?”

Idiot?!

Veronica’s grip on her fork froze slightly as she rolled her eyes while silently reprimanding, Your entire family is an idiot!

“All of them can speak English, so there’s no need for you to translate anything.” After saying that, she put down her cutlery. “I’m done eating, so I’ll be studying in my room.”

“Hey, wait. Roni, don’t go! Roni…”

Though Mateo kept calling her, she continued walking without looking back, greatly disappointing him.

He let out a resigned sigh and glanced at the kitchen as a plan appeared in his mind.

Subsequently, he eagerly gathered the dishes on the table after their meals and childishly approached Matthew, offering him a cigarette. “Iron, how about taking a smoke?”

Matthew, who was busy cleaning up, placed a tablecloth on the side and washed his hands while shaking his head. “I’m sorry, but I don’t smoke.”

“You don’t smoke?”

Frowning, Mateo lowered his head and played with the cigarette in his hand. “Since you don’t, excuse me for a bit.” He then sprinted out of the kitchen and returned after a while.
