Bumpkin’s Rich Handsome Husband novel Chapter 402

Veronica was not sure how she should respond to the matter. Does an active sex life help me to sleep better? No way! This is embarrassing!

Since she was not certain about her theory, she took a mental note to keep an eye on this matter in the future.

After she took a minute to catch her breath, she began to feel hungry. Sliding down from the bed, she cleaned herself in the bathroom, then changed into her clothes.

Fortunately, Matthew was being considerate of her current career as a model. He did not leave any hickeys on her yesterday; otherwise, she would not be able to go anywhere in that state.

Later, she dialed the room service to ask them to serve her dinner. As she was having her meal, she checked her messages on her phone. It was at that moment she found out that Mia had taken the last flight of the day to return to Bloomstead. Thus, she could only book the ticket for tomorrow's flight without any choice.

On the second day, she took the flight to return to the country. The local time was 7.00AM when she arrived at Bloomstead.

Feeling like she was freezing, Veronica hunched her shoulders while tightening the trenchcoat around her as the weather in Bloomstead was chilly.

As she walked toward the exit, she found a car parked outside and a man was leaning against it. Matthew!

She stared at him in silence while he did the same.

When their eyes made contact, she rolled her eyes at him. Then, she immediately carried her luggage and turned to the left side where the cab services were situated.

A cab rolled to a stop before Veronica in time, so she opened the door and got in. However, Matthew invited himself into the car with a bouquet when she was closing the door.

"Why are you following me?" She scowled at him before she asked the driver, "Sir. I don't know this guy. Can you ask him to get off?"

The driver was observing them from the rearview mirror as he asked, "Where are you going?"

"I'm going to the Starshine Media Agency." "I'm heading in the same direction." Both of them answered one after another.

The driver sighed and he began, "Miss, you know it's hard to make a living nowadays, don't you? Since the two of you are heading in the same direction, there's no point in chasing him away. I'll give both of you a discount as a compromise. After all, there aren't many cab services available at this time."

Veronica stuttered, "I—"

Before she could reject, the driver already floored the gas and headed toward their destination.

"Roni, this is for you." Matthew shoved the bouquet into her hands.

"I don't-

Just as Veronica tried to throw the flowers away, he quickly pressed her hand on the seat to stop her. "I got the roses from the garden shed in the Kings Residence. Don't let them go to waste."

"What does that have to do with me?” She glared at him. "Stay away from me! Any closer and I’ll call the police on you for committing sexual assault!"

She stared at him with a cold expression as the anger enveloped her mind. She looks like the Angry Bird, he thought.

He found it both interesting and heartbreaking by looking at her irritated look, so he asked, "What can I do to earn your forgiveness?"

At that moment, the driver burst into laughter. "Hahaha! I thought so! I was thinking that you're related to each other because you two look like a couple, no doubt! Let me tell you something: it's common for couples to fight, but you will make up later as nothing is going to dwell on you forever."

Pursing her lips, Veronica turned her attention to the scenery outside without a word. You know nothing! she thought.

"Last warning. Stay away from me!" Anger was boiling inside her as she did not bother to wear a friendly look at him.
