Bumpkin's Rich Handsome Husband

“Since you‘re Mr. Crawford‘s girlfriend, make sure to kill your old, bad habits, okay? Otherwise, how are

you going to get married to him? You‘re bound to get bad mouthed!” Having said that, she turned to

Matthew. “Isn‘t that right, Matthew?”

Matthew simply shot her a mean glance before turning his eyes to Veronica as he blurted a “yes.”

“Shut up, b*tch! Stop poking your nose into my matters!” Veronica had no desire to be courteous with

Tiffany just because she was Matthew‘s “fiancée.”

He apathy toward Tiffany caused Xavier to overthink. He came to a “conclusion” that the hatred Veronica

bore sor Tiffany wasn‘t only familial, but also out of jealousy as love rivals!

“B–B*tch? How could you say that, Veronica? I was only saying those for your sake…“.

Tiffany pursed her lips. Her reddened eyes made her seem so pitiable.

“As if that would stop the world from revolving around you! Also, stop saying sh*t like ‘for your sake this,

for your sake that. If it‘s really for my sake, then get the hell away from me. Don‘t soil the path I‘m about

to tread on and pollute the scenery I‘m about to glimpse.” Veronica did not pull her punches.

Beside her was Xavier, who tacitly nodded. “Yup, even your breath smells like a what‘s that?–right, a

pretentious b*tch!”

Hearing his insult, Veronica could no longer hold it in and burst out laughing. He‘s done it!

Tiffany, contrastingly, teared up and miserably whimpered. She lowered her head and spoke not another

word.

Despite not wanting to participate in the verbal war, Matthew felt somewhat irritated by how synergetic

Veronica and Xavier were, and the fact that she was so happy with him. “Since Mr. Crawford can‘t stand

the smell here, I guess you shouldn‘t tarry any longer. Farewell.” He explicitly requested for Xavier to

leave. Just like Veronica to Tiffany, Matthew had no intention to spare Xavier the courtesy.

In Veronica‘s eyes, however, that seemed like a fiancé trying to protect his fiancée. It felt rather intimate.

Disaffected, she countered, “Xavier‘s my guest. Who do you think you are to ask him to leave? You‘re

not the boss here in Kings Residence!” Finished, she grabbed Xavier by his wrist. “Come, let‘s go

inside.”

“Mm,” Xavier blurted. He couldn‘t hide the joy at the corners of his lips.

When he walked by Matthew, they had a momentary battle of gazes, where Xavier‘s face was full of

smug.

li was not until the two entered the residence did Tiffany timidly say to Matthew, “Please don‘t get mad,

Matthew. That‘s just how Veronica is. She was spoiled rotten back then, and never learned her

manners.” Contrary to her words, she was, in fact, unerly envious.

Matthew was a figure in Bloomstead none dared to oppose, and even tycoons would feel obliged to bow

before him. Nonetheless, even when Veronica was barbarically reprimanding and insulting him, there

wasn‘t a trace of anger to be found on his face. Tiffany, as the fiancée herself, didn‘t even dare to behave

so impertinently with her own fiancé, but Veronica, as a total nobody, was bold enough to go against

him!.

“Courtesy isn‘t always the best.” Matthew tossed those words out and walked away.

In the public eye, Tiffany was considered the golden girl of Bloomstead. Looks, talents–the gift from God

possessed them both. Nevertheless, after having spent a long time with Veronica, Matthew, upon

countless investigations, found out that the Larsons could not afford her existence. Tiffany, contrary to

the rumors, wasn‘t exactly graceful. Rather, she was so pretentious that it was extremely detestable,

unlike Veronica who always laid her emotions out in the open. Veronica was significantly more adorable,

comforting, and charming. If it weren‘t for the child inside her, Tiffany definitely had zero chance to get

into the Kings Family.

“M…” Standing still on the ground, Tiffany clenched her fists as her body trembled out of vexation. The

jealousy in her heart was spreading through her body and swiftly took over her rationality.

Die... She must die... How is this hateful woman getting so much love from Matthew? I‘ll allow her boastfulness no longer! It should be her... No, it must be her who‘s always instigating Matthew, causing him to call our wedding off!

“What are you waiting for?” As she was stationarily contemplating, Matthew suddenly halted his steps

and turned around to look at her.

“Ah, yes. I‘m coming.” Wiping the tears on her cheek off with her sleeve, Tiffany suppressed her vexation

and followed after.

With that, the four entered the residence in a line and went to the living room.

Having heard about their visit, Elizabeth was already waiting in the living room. When Veronica walked

in, the old woman sprung up from her seat and excitedly yelled, “Oh, my Veronica is here!” As she was

walking up to Veronica, she saw Xavier who entered after her favorite girl. “Isn‘t this… Young Master

Xavier?”

Veronica wrapped her arm around the back of Xavier‘s neck and joyously introduced the man to

Elizabeth. “Grandma, this is Xavier, my tightest Bro! He sent me here today and decided to visit you as

well.”

“Good day, Old Mrs. Kings,” Xavier politely greeted the old woman. There was not a sign of the rumored

overbearing, womanizer behavior within him.

“Hahaha. I see… It‘s so nice of you to come visit this old woman, Mr. Crawford.” Elizabeth beamed as

she attempted to read his face. “I‘ve heard bad things about you, Mr. Crawford, but from what I see

today, that‘s not the case at all!”

“You‘re flattering me, Old Mrs. Kings.” Xavier subtly smiled.

“That‘s right, Grandma. Xavier is the best, and he‘s helped me so many times! People love spreading

false rumors even if there‘s no credibility to those rumors. How annoying!“
