Bumpkin's Rich Handsome Husband

Chapter 272 Ninety-Billion Balance

Now that everyone had agreed on the gameplay, Yvonne set up a group account and added Veronica into it. “Roni, you’ll have to add Young Master Xavier and President Kings into the group.”

Veronica had to be the one to add them, seeing as Yvonne did not have their contacts.

Left without a choice, Veronica did as she was told. By the time everyone had sent in their codes, Matthew, however, was the only one who had not done so.

How do I do this?

“Anytime now, President Kings,” Yvonne urged.

Matthew stared at his phone and scrolled through the various options on the platform, hoping that the link to send in his code would pop out and save him from embarrassment. He had never done this before, and Ruka was equally confused as she mumbled, “Matthew and I have no need for such apps, so…”

“You—” Ruka was close to snapping, but she held back to keep herself from ruining the atmosphere and said instead, “Could you help Matthew with it, then?”

“Fine.” Veronica sighed, then agreed reluctantly, “I guess I’ll do him the favor.”

The wedding banquet had set things off between Matthew and Xavier, who happened to be sitting side by side at the table. They were both businessmen who observed social etiquette, and they would not air their dirty laundry out in public. Besides, the Crawfords were the ones at fault. Having Xavier help Matthew now with the money pool app would only aggravate things, Veronica presumed.

As such, she leaned close to him and pointed at his phone. “See that ‘My Account’ button over there? Tap it.’

The sudden proximity made Matthew hyper-aware of her familiar scent. It hit him like a ton of bricks which instantly transported him to two months ago, when things were not quite as tense between them.

His heart raced at the thought of this. He swallowed, and an odd, imperceptible look flashed across his features.

“Are you even listening to me?” Veronica barked. He was so overwhelmed by how close she was to him that he was almost in a trance.

Almost immediately, he snapped out of his daze and clicked into ‘My Account’.
