Bumpkins Rich Handsome Husband

Chapter 373 Jealous Matthew

Only a muffled hum was heard and with a creak, the log instantly split in half. He took another log and repeated his actions. He first properly placed the piece of wood before he swung the axe, riving the log in half all in one go.

Matthew’s company and Veronica’s family stood by the door as they watched his every move.

Veronica soon shifted her eyes to glare at Crayson with a displeased gaze, and she angrily reached over and tugged on his goatee. “Don’t you think this is a little too much, Master Crayson?”

In any case, Matthew was the richest and one of the most powerful men in Bloomstead.

And that exact superior man is now chopping wood at my house? How is this any different from a demotion? she fumed.

“What is this? You are already siding with an outsider whom you aren’t even married to yet?” The old man huffed in annoyance and knocked Veronica on the head with his tobacco pipe. “You don’t know chalk from cheese, you brat.”

“Your master is right, Veronica. He is only doing this for your own good,” Daniella joined in with the nagging.

“Hmph!” Tony snorted. “Aren’t you all keeping the secret too well? I am the only one who doesn’t know anything.” He then turned around and headed to the yard.

“What are you getting angry at, Tony? I also only just found out,” Daniella explained as she hurried after him.

After Crayson went with them as well, only Caleb, Skyler, Miguel and Veronica were left standing by the door.

As he did not take the situation seriously, Skyler joined in the fun by taking out his phone and pointed it at Matthew for a video. “Tsk! What an interesting day today is. I must take some photos for memory’s sake.”

“You are trying to get yourself killed again,” Caleb, who was leaning against the door frame with his arms crossed, said with a half-smile.

Miguel brought his hand up and pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose. “Even the toughest of men can turn soft in front of a woman,” he mused. Matthew would always have that haughty and cold demeanor that kept people away, but he still had to do anything he was told to do once he had stepped into his in-laws’ house.”

“Haha! You are a wise man, Miggy!” Skyler started laughing at the top of his lungs while pressing one hand on his abdomen as he took the video with one hand.
