Bumpkins Rich Handsome Husband Chapter 376
Chapter 376 Love Confession to Matthew
Veronica took a few steps back and quietly watched the noble and otherworldly man chopping wood
like a normal human being. Still, the noble temperament he had was not one that ordinary people
would have.
She was slightly moved out of nowhere as she looked at him. This was a man who was willing to do
anything, even sacrifice himself to save her. He had even humbled himself by doing chores at her
house.
Veronica didn’t even know what reason she had for her to keep refusing him despite how she really felt
for him. Especially at that time in the kitchen when Matthew said that he would give her one billion and
ten villas as bridewealth. And if he cheated in their marriage, he would take none of the possessions
and leave everything to her.
Although these words might not come true, it was still unimaginable for him to want to give a staggering
one billion in bridewealth.
Veronica didn’t have her head in the clouds that she would think that she was worth one billion.
“Matthew?” she called out.
The man immediately stopped doing his work and put the sharp end of the axe on the ground. He
rested one arm on the handle of the axe, and placed the other hands on his hip as he looked back at
her. “What’s wrong?” he asked, so tired he had beads of sweat on his skin.
Seeing his flushed face and the fine sweat glistening on his forehead, Veronica stepped forward and
took out a tissue from her pocket, thereafter gently wiping the sweat from his forehead.
The sudden move surprised the man, and with a smile on his face, he hummed, “Are you worried for
me, Roni?”
He seemed to be enjoying this moment a lot.
She pursed her lips as she grabbed the tissue tight while she stared intently at the man who was right
in front of her with her bright eyes. She was even more moved when she saw how his chest tiredly rose
and fell from him chopping wood.
“Matthew, let’s… let’s date.”
Wouldn’t it be a pity not to cherish a man who was willing to let go of everything in order to be with her?
As soon as Veronica said that, the smile on Matthew’s face suddenly disappeared.
His sharp, straight eyebrows pulled together then, and his eyes suddenly became clear. “You… Are
you serious?”
“What is the matter? Do you not want to?”
She was puzzled to no end.
She didn’t understand his reaction and expression after she agreed to be together with him.
“What? Of course I want to. It is just that…” Matthew paused and dragged his voice.
“What is it?”
“You cannot go back on your words after you promise me.” The man reached out and pinched her
delicate cheek. “Think about it properly.”
Veronica pursed her red lips and nodded with a knowing smile. “Mhm. I won’t regret my decision.”
Only then did Matthew’s handsome face beam as a smile appeared. Throwing the axe aside out of joy,
he engulfed her in one big hug.
He was overwhelmed by emotions as he soon released her, and he planted a kiss on her lips.
The kiss was hot and passionate, but after recalling that they were at her home, he immediately let go
of her.
“But… when can we get married?” After saying that, Matthew suddenly remembered their previous
agreement. He then said again, “A hidden marriage isn’t a bad idea.”
“We can talk about that next time.”
Veronica stood on her tiptoes and lightly kissed him on the lips. She then turned around and was about
to leave when she realized Hendrey, Skyler, and Miguel were standing in the doorway and staring
intently at her and Matthew.
Her face instantly turned red.
What the hell? she thought, flustered.
The one time she took the initiative to confess had actually been witnessed by the lot of them.
Since when have I lowered my guard so much?
“Tsk! This is overstepping the line. It is too early to be sticking to each other.”
“Isn’t that right? Matthew somehow won her over with his unexpected behavior.”
“Veronica, have you really thought it through?”
Skyler, Miguel, and Hendrey all spoke one after the other.
Matthew’s friends would naturally be happy for him, but Hendrey’s heart quickly sank to his stomach.
“Go on and have fun, you guys. I will decide with my mother what kind of yummy food we will prepare
for your lunch.”
After Veronica blabbered about that, she immediately slipped into the yard.
Matthew couldn’t help but laugh when he saw her scampering away due to embarassment.
After a while, he looked back. Pushing the axe out of the ground with the tip of his shoe, he continued
to chop wood after grabbing onto it.
…
At this time, Caleb had just returned from an unplanned drive to town to buy a small box of chilblain
cream.
When he arrived at Veronica’s house, Miguel and the others were standing by the door while chatting.
Finally seeing Caleb, Skyler started interrogating his friend, “Where have you been the whole morning,
Caleb?”
“Around.”
Caleb didn’t walk into the house and instead, he stood on the side of the road as he took out his phone.
“I will go make a call.”
His ‘call’ somehow brought him away from the entrance of Veronica’s house.
With the chilblain cream in his hand, he went around her house and headed to the river again.
Only this time, Abby was nowhere to be seen.
He went up the small hill and walked a distance, where he saw several houses along the way.
However, he didn’t know which one Abby lived in.
He eventually stopped walking and stood on the spot. As he looked down at the box in his hand, he
couldn’t help but let out a resigned smile.
This was the first time he did something silly like this for a young lady he didn’t even know.
It was probably due to his sense of justice as a police officer that he couldn’t bear seeing pitiful people.
Not wanting to spend more time looking for her, Caleb turned around and left.
Unexpectedly, just after taking two steps, he suddenly heard the sound of someone crying.
As soon as he heard the voice, his expression turned cold and he turned around immediately to go in
the direction the sound came from.
As he reached a house in the east of the village, Caleb saw as he stood by the door that the cruel-
looking middle-aged woman from earlier was brutally whipping a girl’s legs with a thin bamboo stick.
And the girl, who was kneeling on the ground, did not dare to escape.
“Where did this courage come from, huh? I only wanted you to cook lunch, but you are telling me that
your hand hurts? Are you trying to piss me off? I raised you, you useless thing! But what else have you
done other than being lazy?!”
The woman pressed one hand on her hip and held a bamboo stick in the other. She then deliberately
aimed at the girl’s hands as she gave it another good whip. “Didn’t you say that your hands hurt? I will
show you what it means to ‘hurt’. It won’t feel painful anymore after I hit you a few times.”
Ah—don’t hit me. Abby sobbed while signing. I was wrong… I will cook…
“Stop it!” Caleb yelled angrily as he stepped inside. “What the hell are you doing?!”
Upon hearing him, the middle-aged woman and Abby both looked over at him.
Abby’s eyes were red and brimming with tears. That tender gaze her eyes held made her look so pitiful
that anyone’s heart would break upon seeing that.
The woman, on the other hand, pointed at him with the stick. “Who are you to stick your nose into our
family affairs?”
Caleb stood up straight and said solemnly, “This is domestic violence. Anyone has the right to ‘stick
their nose’ into this.”
“You are a friend of the lady from the Murphy Family, aren’t you? Hmph! You are the same as them.
You both have nothing better to do than meddle in someone else’s business. If it wasn’t for Veronica
Murphy and her parents, this stupid girl here would have been married. I am sick of nosy people like
you. Get out!”
Caleb could easily tell how much the woman despised Abby from her words alone.
And the young lady looks like she isn’t even 18 years old yet! What is this marriage talk about?!
He proceeded to take out the police badge he carried with him. “I am a policeman. Do you still think I
shouldn’t bother myself with this?” he asked.
“You… you are a policeman?”
The woman took a look at the badge he took out, and her arrogance disappeared instantly. With her
lips pursed, she looked embarrassed as she smiled and explained, “I was only teaching my girl
because she was disobedient.”
