Bumpkin’s Rich Handsome Husband novel Chapter 772

"Prince Liam is right. Please sit, Veronica." Hendrey treated Veronica as gently as ever.

Xavier looked at her, his dark brows furrowed. Then, he glanced at Antheena beside him but kept his mouth shut. On the other hand, Tiffany glared at Veronica and Hendrey resentfully and then casually took a seat next to Liam.

A bonfire was lit on the lawn, and seven to eight low rectangular tables were placed around it with two futon cushions beside each table. The table had a full spread of delicious food with a few bottles of fine wines.

"She's my honored guest, so it's only proper that she sits next to me." Liam rebuffed Hendrey and politely said to Veronica, "Miss Veronica, this way, please."

"I—" Veronica wanted to refuse Hendrey's and Liam's offers because she knew that the moment she accepted, someone would learn about this and immediately turn into a raging and jealous little monster.

"Come on. Just sit here. It's not like I'm going to eat you." Liam didn't allow her to decline as he tugged her hand over to sit on the main seat.

That instant Liam's hand was on her, Veronica immediately felt a chill down her spine and instinctively shook off his hand, fearing Matthew would rush over and threaten Liam with a sword.

"I can walk by myself." She smiled awkwardly.

Then, Liam snapped his fingers, and a band started playing a tune. When the merry song began, a group of beautiful women dressed in Hidden Clan costumes came forward to dance along. The atmosphere turned harmonious and peaceful as the music and song resonated across the venue, and the dancers performed wonderfully.

"Come, have a drink." He raised his glass in mid-air and clinked glasses with the others in mid-air. With that done, he turned to Veronica with a bright grin and urged, "This is the best wine from our clan. It's amazing. You should give it a taste."
