Bumpkin's Rich Handsome Husband novel Chapter 1058

Chapter 1058 Let Things Take Its Natural Course

A stunned Veronica stood in a daze after they shoved her aside so heartlessly. Then, she turned her gaze to her adoptive parents as they hurried into the living and smiled in exasperation. I suppose it's true that love doubles through a generation, she thought in amusement.

After they entered the living room, Tony and Daniella each picked up a baby in their arms. They were overjoyed as they talked and played with the babies, teasing them so often that they kept giggling in merriment.

Instantly, the spacious living room was filled with life, and everything seemed so wonderful, basked in this blissful atmosphere.

This is probably what it means to have a blissful family. Matthew could feel their utter adoration for the babies just by watching Tony and Daniella rocking them gently while cooing at the babies in their arms.

"Dad, Mom, you're probably exhausted after such a long trip. You should rest for a bit," he said and gestured to the nannies to take the children from them.

After the nannies had left with the babies, only then did Tony take a seat on the couch.

"Roni and I couldn't contact you guys for the past few months because we've been busy with our work and training outside of the city," Matthew said.

When Matthew and Veronica left, he was worried that Tony and Daniella would contact Veronica first and start panicking when they couldn't reach her after a few tries. Hence, he had placed Thomas and Yvette in charge of contacting and visiting them, which set the Murphy couple at ease.

"Oh, that's not a problem. You're still young, and it's only natural that you place your career first," Tony said. "The training session this time is rather long. We would have been distraught if Thomas hadn't been in contact with us the whole time and kept us in the loop."

"Yes, exactly. As her mother, I'm worried whenever she leaves the house," Daniella said, chuckling.

Seated next to Matthew, Veronica tilted her head at them and flashed them a smile. "I'm back now, aren't I? So, there's nothing to worry about. Moreover, the training is over, and there wouldn't be any of that after this. So, don't worry."

Fortunately, her adoptive parents had a lot of trust in her. If the elderly couple had asked one more question, their cover might have been blown in an instant.

Ring, ring…

Then, Matthew's phone started to ring, and he saw a string of numbers when he whisked out his phone. This is Flavian's number, he thought and hung up with a frown.

"Is that an important call from work?" Daniella noticed that he had hung up a call and thought that her visit had the unfortunate side effect of disturbing his work.

Fortunately, the man shook his head. "No, it's just a scam call," he said, turning to Veronica. "Let them rest in the morning. Then, in the afternoon, if you're free, take them shopping and buy anything that they need."

"Okay," Veronica answered readily.

"We don't need anything and have everything that we need," Daniella chirped.

"Yes, we just want to spend some time with the kids and don't want to do anything else," Tony said and stood up. "I'm going to check on the kids."

Maybe it was because he didn't have many common topics with Matthew, or maybe he thought that Matthew was out of Veronica’s league and she was not worthy of him. Therefore, Tony didn't dare to speak out of turn in Matthew's presence and even felt a little inferior.

"I'm coming, too." Daniella stood up and followed after him.

Veronica sighed and shook her head helplessly as they scampered out of the room. "I think they're… afraid of you." As their daughter, she could easily read what was on her parents' minds.

Matthew wrapped an arm around her and played with her hair between his fingers. "What should I do?" He, too, would like to ease the relationship.

"We can only let this take its natural course," Veronica said with a sigh. "Since we got married, you've not shown yourself, and there was even a fake Matthew by my side when you were missing. Although they knew that he wasn't you, it was precisely because of that that they think there is more than meets the eye when it comes to you. So, they're constantly worried that our marriage won't last."
