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?”

“What?” Veronica was stunned for a moment, then she shook her head with her face full of embarrassment. She reached out and scratched her head. “Oh, my… I was too tired from shopping with Ruka and forgot about it.”

Truth was, she did not shop at all. She bought a few clothes at the roadside mall on the way back to continue the lie, and she did not even know if they fit her.

“I’m so sorry for forgetting about you. Should we go shopping tomorrow? I can pick a few clothes for you.” Veronica wisely changed the subject. Matthew gave her a meaningful look. His pupils were dark and unclear, making it impossible to fathom what he was thinking.

Matthew poured a glass of warm water and handed it to her. “Here, drink some water.” That gentle and considerate nature completely differed from his ruthless and domineering image.

It was hard to imagine the cruel man everyone talked about would be so considerate. Veronica couldn’t help but think of the poem. In me, the tiger sniffs the rose.
