Bumpkins Rich Handsome Husband Chapter 288

Chapter 288 Conrad’s Ploy

“Of course I am. Why wouldn’t I be afraid?”

Conrad admitted it honestly. “He’s the prince of Castron, who has the love of his citizens. And I am just a normal citizen. How can I hope to go against him? What I really need is time. Time to make me able to go against him on an equal level. It’s only by then that I can protect you, my little princess.”

Little… princess?

His sweet words made Yvonne blush instantly.

Lovesick, she could not think properly as she only nodded profusely. “Don’t worry. I won’t tell Zac about this. No… I won’t tell anyone about this so as to prevent him from knowing about it. I will fight for more time for you to become stronger.”

Aside from Conrad, even her parents were no match for Zac.

Nonetheless, in this relationship, Conrad was the passive one as she was the one pressuring him. After all, the person behind her was Zac, a person who could get whatever he wanted in Castron.

She had a responsibility and the duty to help Conrad hide their relationship so that Zac would not suspect him or get rid of him secretly.

“Okay. I believe you.”

Nodding, Conrad fell into momentary silence before suddenly asking, “Don’t you think that this makes me look kind of useless?”

“What are you talking about?”

Yvonne smiled and shook her head. “You’re doing great. You’re already the hero in my heart.”

The memories from the previous night resurfaced as she felt that Conrad was her knight in shining armor.

As for Veronica, she felt even more admiration for her.

“We can try to get along for a while. But, if anyone finds out and our relationship gets known to Zac, I’m afraid that my plan will already be aborted before it even begins.”

“I know.”

Yvonne nodded repeatedly with an innocent expression.

Knock, knock.
