Bumpkin's Rich Handsome Husband

Chapter 544 Attacked by an Ex-girlfriend

“You’re back.” Matthew got up and walked toward Veronica with a gentle smile. His expression was indifferent, as if he didn’t know Veronica was lying. Then, he smoothly took the bags from her hand. “That’s a lot of stuff. Is there a gift for me?”
