Bumpkin’s Rich Handsome Husband novel Chapter 366

When Veronica saw the people who showed up at the front door, she was stunned.

Shouldn't he already be abroad?

"Why are you here?" She simply asked coldly, and there was not much of a happy look on her face.

"Hey, Veronica. Merry Christmas!" Like always, the talkative Skyler warmly greeted her.

When Caleb saw Veronica, he just greeted her by nodding slightly.

As for Miguel, he kept his composure. "Merry Christmas. Sorry for the abrupt intrusion as we come here without notice."

Matthew stared at her with mixed emotions as he stood before Veronica bearing gifts. After a while, only then did he speak, "I'm here to see Mr. and Mrs. Murphy."

In the meantime, Veronica stood by the door and held the door with both hands. It was as if she had no intention of welcoming them. "Are you that close with my parents? You don't need to visit them."

When she recalled the day she accidentally saw Matthew being intimate with a woman and even lied to her on the phone. She felt that she didn't know him all that well.

But it's perfect this way as it just so happens that I feel that I'm not worthy of Matthew either. So, I should end things here once and for all.

Once she finished speaking, the four men all had different expressions on their faces. Finally, their gazes landed upon Matthew. Only Skyler pouted out of guilty conscience and dared not utter a sound.

At this moment, he was almost certain that Veronica must have seen the content of the video in the hospital that day.

It was just that her reaction at that time was too calm. Now that Skyler recalled it carefully, he felt that her calm state was horrifying.

"Roni, you—I-I have been busy recently and couldn't accompany you..."

Matthew did not understand why Veronica was mad at him to the point that she constantly refused to answer his calls and reply to his messages.

At once, the man's intuition told him that something was off. Therefore, he immediately took a flight and flew back home.

"Since your homies are here, let me just set some things straight. The trial period agreed upon by us is three months, but I can tell you my conclusion now. I have concluded that you and I are not suitable for each other, so let's just break up. Also, you guys better hurry up and go back.

There's no place for you guys to sleep, considering I won't let any of you stay overnight," Veronica said calmly.

At this moment, Daniella's voice came from the living room and asked, "Roni, who's outside?”

"No one, Mom." She turned her head back and responded. Afterward, she glanced at Matthew coldly again, shut the door with a 'bang', and locked the clasp. The action was ruthless and heartless.

If Matthew had not stepped back in time, he would have slammed his nose against the door.

Veronica turned back, headed straight to the living room, and ignored them.

Veronica's thoughts wandered off as she sat in the living room and watched the Christmas show. In her mind, she thought, It's the 24th of December today, yet the four of them gave up the opportunity to spend Christmas with their family and drove all the way here?! Am I too cruel for shutting them out?

Whoosh—pop!

Suddenly, the sound of fireworks sounded outside.

When Veronica looked back, she saw fireworks shooting into the sky in the front yard. The fireworks exploded and bloomed all over the sky, which was absolutely gorgeous.

Daniella frowned at the sound of fireworks as she asked curiously, "Roni, who's setting off fireworks at

the door?"

Veronica scratched her nose sheepishly upon hearing Daniella's inquiry. She knew that it would be impossible for her to hide things from Daniella, so she replied candidly, "It's Matthew and his friends."

"What? Little Roni, Matthew is here? Why didn't you invite him into the house? Such a mischievous young lady," Daniella reprimanded Veronica.

While saying that, she went to open the door.

Veronica immediately gripped

Daniella's hand as she briefly explained the situation. "Mom, Matthew, and I aren't of equal social rank, and we belong to utterly different worlds. So, it's not suitable for us to be together at all. What will that mean if you open the door now and let him in? Does that mean I agree to be with him or disagree to be with him?”

After Daniella heard Veronica’s side of the story, she nodded and sighed. "Yeah, you're right. We're an average family. It's already overwhelming enough that you could claim ties with Old Mrs. Kings by becoming her goddaughter. How can you get married to Matthew?"

"I'll handle this myself. But, mom, you go to bed first." Veronica looked at her with rare seriousness.

Daniella hesitated for a moment before she smiled in gratification. "Roni, you have grown up wanting to take care of things yourself in the future. Okay, I'll go to bed first."

Of course, Daniella wouldn't be sleeping after hearing such information. She simply wanted to give Veronica the space she needed to deal with the situation outside.

"Good night, Mom."

Daniella hummed, entered the

bedroom, and closed the door behind her.
