Bumpkin’s Rich Handsome Husband novel Chapter 482

He thought that she wanted him to take her in.

"So, is that okay?" She nodded eagerly as she gazed at him with unblinking eyes filled with anticipation.

"No, no, no! There is no way that's happening. Really, it's impossible." He was utterly flustered as he waved his hand and turned her down. He was waving his hand so quickly that the shadows were overlapping. "You should just wait for Matthew before we speak about this matter again."

Veronica nodded. "Okay, that's fine."

Thus, she checked the time and saw that it was 1.30PM, and she immediately pleaded with Miguel. "Miggy, can you please order food for me? I'm hungry."

With her lips pursed, she looked so pitiful that anyone would feel sorry for her.

A soft-hearted person like Miguel naturally couldn't bear to see her so down-and-out and desperate, so he asked, "What would you like to eat? I'll order it for you."

Until now, he still couldn't figure out the secret between Matthew and Veronica or what Matthew was

currently hiding from Veronica.

When would their love-hate relationship come to a stop?

"I don't know, either." She hung her head as she sighed despondently. "Anything to eat will do. It's been... two days since I ate anything."

It was lucky that Veronica was smart enough and had already registered an account abroad. Therefore, all the company revenues were directly transferred to that particular bank account, so Matthew wouldn't discover it.

On the other hand, it was indeed a fact that she didn't have much money left on her, and it wasn't an exaggeration for her to say something like this.

"You haven't eaten for two days?" Miguel paused slightly while holding his phone, and his eyes were brimming with pity as he looked at her. "Okay, I’ll order food for you."

Then, he contacted One Piece Restaurant and ordered two set lunches and one nutritious meal to be delivered to Luminesce Enterprise. After he had called for lunch for the both of them, he sat on the executive chair at his desk and texted Matthew. 'What happened between you and Veronica? I know she's still in your heart, so why can't you talk things out personally? She can't find a job now and hasn't eaten for a couple of days. Without money, she can't even purchase food for herself. So, what the hell happened that made you mistreat her so badly?'

It was precisely because Matthew and Miguel had a close bond, and that was why Miguel thought that the way Matthew dealt with situations was a little extreme and unacceptable. Furthermore, he knew that Matthew liked Veronica, and he wanted to persuade Matthew to be kinder. So that even if he had reasons that he couldn't give voice to, he shouldn't be treating Veronica this way.

Miguel sat by his desk and kept a distinct distance between himself and Veronica, and although she could feel that he was acting distant, it didn’t bother her at all. As she all but leaned on the couch to play games on her phone.

After she finished one game, the food delivery guy arrived, and another person came with him—Matthew!

The employee from One Piece Restaurant delivered the food and set them neatly on the table. "Mr. Lynch, your food is here. Enjoy your meal." "Okay, thanks." Miguel nodded and said to Veronica, "Eat up quickly if you're hungry."

"Thanks, Miggy."

As she didn't have much appetite during breakfast this morning, she was kind of hungry now, and when she picked up the fork and was about to dig in, she heard Miguel say, "Matthew, you're finally here."

Matthew?
