Bumpkin’s Rich Handsome Husband novel Chapter 856

"Of course, I feel bad for you."

"Here, have more of this." Veronica placed a hard-boiled egg into Mateo's bowl.

"Roni's the best."

Veronica easily brushed Mateo off with just an egg.

Crayson, on the other hand, was having his breakfast solemnly. After finishing his porridge, he asked, "Have you all heard of Zac's incident?" He first glanced over at Veronica before looking over at Matthew, as if he was implying something.

Hearing that, Destiny sighed, "This is a serious matter since Zac is the prince of Castron and Xavier dared to provoke him. I'm afraid that he is done for."

At the same time, Veronica lowered her gaze as she had her porridge absent-mindedly before giving a half-hearted reply, stating, "Yes, I've heard about it."

"The death of Roni's husband must have something to do with Xavier. Therefore, it serves him right to be captured." Mateo, who was unaware of the fact, added, "This is karma."

"Although we are within the hidden clan's territory, Zac is the high-born prince of Castron. All of you better stay away from him and not get yourselves into trouble." Crayson emphasized his last phrase to warn and remind them about the severity of the issue.

Matthew was quiet, and Veronica merely nodded after hearing Crayson's warning. Mateo, who was still kept in the dark, chuckled mysteriously. "We can just watch from the side and reap the spoils when both sides suffer. Isn't that the best?"

"Stop talking nonsense and eat your food!" Crayson glared at him with a piercing gaze. "You're still acting frivolously even though you're an adult." Everyone around the table kept quiet as they had their breakfast.

After the servants cleared the table when everyone was done with their meal, Veronica called out to Matthew, "Iron Pillar. Please accompany me down the mountains to buy something."

"Roni, let me go with you." Mateo rushed over to Veronica and added, "Iron Pillar must be busy. It's better not to trouble him."
