Bumpkin's Rich Handsome Husband

Chapter 280 Yvonne Kidnapped

Matthew pulled his plate over to himself, yet he could not find the appetite to eat.

After a few moments of silence, he could not resist asking, “Am I going to have just plain bread the next time you treat me to a meal?”

“Huh?”

Veronica awkwardly stared at the food on the table.

“No way,” she replied with a fawning smile. “This is all because the owner of this place is a scamming con artist. He really deserves death for this! Men like him should be single forever with no kids…”

“Me!”

Suddenly, Matthew shouted.

“What? What about you?” She was confused. What did he mean by that?

After talking for so long, she seized a moment to sip at her water.

Just then, he continued, “Six years ago, I opened up this restaurant.”

“Pffft! Excuse me?” she sputtered, coughing as she spat out the water she was drinking. “Fucking hell! Oh, I’m sorry.”

The water she had spit out when she choked just so happened to have hit him on the face as well.

He stiffened and slowly closed his eyes. Despite the calm on his face, he was betrayed by how his trembling hand clenched so tightly that his knuckles were white.

Never had he ever felt so upset.

Not only had she insulted him to his face, but she had also cursed his family line to end with him!

Very… Well.

“You should have said so earlier. How could I have known you were the boss of One Piece Restaurant?” she said as she dabbed at her mouth with a paper napkin.

She then pouted and continued in a low mumble, “Even so, the food here is quite expensive.”
