Bumpkin’s Rich Handsome Husband novel Chapter 314

In her mind, Conrad, who dared to say this in front of Elizabeth, meant that he had accepted her confession.

This was equal to admitting in public that she was his girlfriend.

It was what Yvonne wanted all along.

"Y-Yeah, Grandma. We shouldn't rush this." Yvonne nodded.

"What?"

Elizabeth suddenly looked at her with some dissatisfaction on her face.

"Grandma?"

"Eh?"

Confused, Yvonne did not know what she was hinting at.

"Conrad calls me Mother, yet you're still calling me Grandma?" The old woman reminded her frowningly.

"Erm... I-I mean Aunt Elizabeth?"

Scratching her head, she thought that this way of addressing Elizabeth seemed a bit weird.

Veronica, who was holding a teacup, was sipping from it full of worries.

How do I expose Conrad to Yvonne?

"You smart girl. Come, eat up. Look at how thin you are." Beaming, Elizabeth was overjoyed.

She then sighed. "Conrad is already thirty now. Now that he has someone special, I can slightly rest my heart. But, you two should pick up the pace as I want my grandchildren soon."

"Pff... Cough, cough, cough..."

Her words made Yvonne blush, while Veronica choked on the tea and started coughing.

"What's with you?"

Upon seeing Veronica choke on water,

Elizabeth could not help but ask, "It's not as if I'm rushing you. Now that we're on the subject, do you want to meet the potential suitors I've arranged for you?"

"What? I... No... Cough, cough, cough...”

This only exacerbated her cough.

As she was sitting next to Elizabeth, she could not cough at her, so she chose to cough in Matthew's direction.

The man frowned heavily as his eyes were full of undisguised contempt.

Reaching out, he gave her a piece of tissue. "Stupid."

Insulted, Veronica suddenly felt a bit angry. Holding in her cough, she stared at him. "What does this have to do with you!"

Busybody.

"You've dirtied the air in front of me."

The man sat straightly as a noble-like aura exuded from him. Even his table manners had a certain sense of elegance to them, especially when compared with Veronica, who sat next to him.

This only showed how lacking she was.

"If you think it's dirty, you're welcome to eat outside!"

Without waiting for Veronica to continue, Elizabeth added, "Although you aren't very capable, you're quite fussy, aren't you?"

Elizabeth's sentence made the angry Veronica hold in her laughter as she nodded madly. "Yup, Grandma's right. A man shouldn't be so fussy. If an outsider were to know about this, they might think that you're acting like a princess."

In other words, she was saying that he was acting like a girl.

Once she finished her words, she suddenly felt the atmosphere freezing up, as chills ran behind her back.

Shuddering, with the corners of her eyes, Veronica saw him staring daggers at herself.

"Grandma, don't you think I’m correct?"
