Bumpkin’s Rich Handsome Husband novel Chapter 1166

While sighing, he cast a glance towards the kitchen as a plan formed in his mind.

After dinner, Mateo quickly gathered the bowls and skipped over to Matthew, offering him a cigarette. "Iron, want to smoke?"

Matthew, who was cleaning up the kitchen, set the dishcloth aside and shook his head as he washed his hands. "Sorry, I don't smoke."

"You don't smoke?"

Mateo furrowed his brows and played with the cigarette in his hand. "You don't smoke. Hmm. Hold on."

He quickly exited the kitchen and then came back. "Here. How about this?"

Mateo handed Matthew a jar of wine. "This is the best Drunken Wine of our hidden clan, aged for ten years. I wouldn't even give it to my Grandpa."

"I suppose you aren't a filial grandson then." Matthew stood there, his gaze intently fixed on the jar of wine in Mateo's hand.

Mateo had a strange sense that he was being reprimanded, but he had no proof.

"Hehehe. Now that you're guarding Roni, let's become friends. It's only fair that I give this to you since we men should share the good stuff among ourselves."

"From what I know, you haven't known Miss Roni for long."

"Tsk. What do you know? I met Roni ten years ago, so we're old acquaintances. Speaking of which, I fell in love with her at first sight back then, I was…"

Mateo smiled brightly as he thought back on the old times. But about halfway through, he quickly suppressed his grin. "Why am I telling you all of this? Forget it. Take this wine, and find a reason to leave this afternoon so I can go to the banquet with Roni."

Love at first sight?

Despite his suspicions, Matthew was unaware that Mateo had been in love with Veronica since ten years ago, which was much earlier than him.

"Sorry, I don't drink either." Matthew declined.

However, his voice had a softer, more sincere tone than usual, giving people a sense of his sincerity.
