Bumpkins Rich Handsome Husband

Chapter 352 Ruka Apologizes Personally

With suspicion in her heart, Veronica quickly re-dialed Crayson’s number, but nobody picked up. Then, just when she was about to call Shirley to explain the situation, Shirley called her first.

“Did you find Crayson, Shirley?”

“Yes, I found him. Maybe I didn’t look carefully earlier and missed him,” she explained.

From the other end of the line, Veronica could hear her asking Crayson, “Mr. Crayson, are the doughnuts I bought for you delicious?”

“Heh, so nice of you to have me on your mind, young lass. It’s not bad. Good,” Crayson said with a cackle, and Veronica heard everything clearly.

She couldn’t help but furrow her brows slightly. Was I too sensitive?

Finally, she shook her head as she figured she was too stressed recently, which resulted in overthinking, and she hung up.

That afternoon, Hendrey called, saying that he was finally finished with his work. He had just disembarked the aircraft in Bloomstead and wanted to ask her out for a meal.

After she had settled down Crayson, she went to the appointment, but the last thing she was expecting to see when she arrived at the teppanyaki restaurant was Hendrey and Ruka seated together.

Why is she here? Veronica wondered as she kept her gaze on Ruka, looking puzzled.

In contrast, Ruka smiled softly upon seeing her. “Don’t look at me like that. I know that Hendrey asked you out for dinner, so I insisted on tagging along.”

All of a sudden, she recalled that Hendrey had been working in a subsidiary of Dame Group since his return to the country. So, she could understand that he was on good terms with Ruka.

“Yeah.”

Without saying much, Veronica slid into a spot next to them, but before she could say anything, Ruka’s voice echoed again, “I’m here today to apologize to you.”

“Apologize?”
