Bumpkin’s Rich Handsome Husband novel Chapter 739

Crayson, Veronica, and Mateo walked to the massive gate. Then, Crayson took the initiative as he pressed the doorbell to announce their arrival.

The gate of the villa slowly opened, and a maid appeared before them. "Do you have an appointment?"

The maid was speaking the language of the hidden clan dialect, but Veronica could understand her well because she was wearing a miniature earphone that automatically translated her words. Even now, Veronica couldn't help but feel touched that Matthew had given her such a practical and useful gift.

"Oh, it's you, Mr. Elrod. Do come in. Madam has been expecting you." The maid was very excited when she got a good look at Crayson. She hurriedly opened the gate and invited the three in, but she kept staring at Veronica when the latter entered. It was difficult to ignore such a piercing stare, and she felt somewhat uneasy by the attention.

Hayley was her mother. Since the maid was under Hayley's employment, it was only natural that she had guessed Veronica's identity when she saw the heavy resemblance between them.

Sure enough, the maid walked up to Crayson and whispered, "She must be Madam's daughter, right? She looked exactly like Madam when she was young."

"Of course," Crayson answered.

"Wow, time really flies. She has grown so big in the blink of an eye. I'm sure Madam will be very happy to see her later. No wonder she ordered the chef to prepare lunch today."

Judging from their friendly chat, she quickly deduced that the maid was well acquainted with Crayson.

After they entered the villa's hall, the maid trotted over to the sofa in the living room and spoke respectfully, "Madam, Mr. Waylen, and Mateo are here." The maid deliberately skipped Veronica, most likely because she wanted to give Hayley a surprise.

The woman sitting on the sofa jerked and looked back at them. Only then did Veronica realize…

The nearly fifty-year-old Hayley was dressed in a black, form-fitting dress. She wore her long hair in a neat bun at the back of her head, only accessorized with a glazed hairpin. Her complexion was fair. It also should be noted that she maintained her skin and body very well for her age. The temperament of the noble lady exuded from her body effortlessly, making her look dignified and charismatic.

Meanwhile, Veronica was leisurely and laid back. The personalities of the mother-daughter duo were as different as day and night.
