Bumpkin’s Rich Handsome Husband novel Chapter 1076

"I see." Veronica nodded. "Alright, go ahead and do your tasks."

"The servant mentioned that Skyler took Shirley out. They're probably going for a joyride," said Veronica when she entered the living room.

"We'll be having dinner soon. Should we give them a call?" Matthew suggested.

Veronica shook her head, looking slightly annoyed. "Are you stupid? Skyler went through all that trouble to take Shirley away. I'm sure they went out to relax. Shirley has been feeling down lately, so it's good for her to get out for a while. Let's not bother them."

Her words woke Matthew up.

Matthew walked up to her and playfully tapped her nose. "Why are you so clever?" He took her hand and led her toward the dining room. "I asked the kitchen to prepare your favorite dish today. Let's have a good meal."

"Okay, sounds good." They walked hand in hand to the dining room.

Since returning to the country, this was the first time they dined alone, and it felt rather lonely, mostly due to the lack of familiarity.

After dinner, Veronica went to her room and had a video call with Rosa while Matthew sat in the study room, lost in his thought.

Thomas was tasked to investigate Flavian, and the information he obtained revealed that Flavian was thriving in Mythpoint and had a son and a daughter.

However, it seemed that Flavian doted on his son, as information about him was tightly guarded and impossible to discover.

Matthew did not think much of it, but the fact that Flavian was doing well surprised him, even when they had not contacted each other for many years.

Moreover, his properties were all registered under his current wife, Lindsey's name.

This clearly demonstrated how deeply he loved Lindsey.

Whenever Matthew thought about this, he felt Flavian was a despicable scoundrel who betrayed his biological mother.

Furthermore, Matthew believed that the reason Flavian did not put the properties under his name was to prevent people from knowing his true identity.
