Bumpkins Rich Handsome Husband
Chapter 597 All of Xavierâs Memories âIn that case, who will pay for Melissaâs death?â He only had eyes for her, but her heart was filled with Matthew. Xavier raised his voice, feeling angered.
âSo stop saying those dignified words. Your hatred has determined our relationship.â She strode forward. âLetâs go. I know a place that serves delicious pancakes.â
Veronica changed the subject, and the two never exchanged another word after that. After getting out of the parking lot, they walked east for about two hundred yards. A stall was already in business. Veronica walked in, then turned back to glance at Xavier. âWhat do you want to eat?â
âWhateverâs fine.â âAlright.â Veronica didnât ask more questions as she said to the female vendor, âTwo pancakes, two puddings, and two donuts, please.â âComing right up! You are an early couple, arenât you? Hahaha, come and have a seat.â
The vendor had seen Veronica having breakfast here before, but she rarely saw Matthew. That was why she thought Xavier was Veronicaâs husband.
Xavier didnât say anything. This was perhaps the relationship of his dreams. Meanwhile, Veronica couldnât be bothered to explain.
If she told the vendor that he was a friend, the vendor might think that it couldnât possibly be a simple relationship if the two got up at 5.00AM for breakfast.
At times like this, silence was the best option.
The two walked to a spot and sat down facing each other.
Veronicaâs gaze subconsciously went to the vendor, who was frying up the pancakes. She began to recall something from the past.
Back then, she had offered to treat Matthew to breakfast, and after much frugality, she finally purchased a tea egg and warm milk for him.
But when she treated Xavier to meals, she would go to food stalls or even Twilight Club, where millions would be spent. Because of that, Matthew held a grudge for the longest time.
Within one year, they had already become mortal enemies.
âI was quite surprised. I thought youâd tell Matthew so that he could get hold of me.â
Xavier crossed his fingers, placing them on the table. There was a faint smile at the corners of his lips as he looked at her.
Despite an extra scar on his face, it still didnât affect his good looks. Instead, it gave him a calm aura that could only be obtained from numerous hardships.
âYou said it yourself; I have a wedding coming up.â
Veronica shook her head and added, âI donât want to cause a ruckus.â
In actuality, even if her wedding wasnât near, Veronica wouldnât tell Matthew that she had met Xavier.
She glanced at Xavierâs bulging muscles, which were causing his shirt to tighten. It was proof enough that he was working hard to improve himself.
Veronica couldnât figure out Xavierâs true abilities. She was worried that if the two met, both would be considerably injured. In other words, it wouldnât benefit anyone.
âHere, pancakes for you.â
The vendor served the double pancakes, puddings, and donuts. She even praised, âDarling, your husband is so handsome.â
Veronica was exasperated at being misunderstood a second time, so she explained, âHeâs my friend.
He just came back from overseas.â
âIs that so? I see. Hahaha⦠Sorry, I assumed too much.â
The vendor had an awkward look on her face.
Veronica smiled. âItâs okay.â
âEnjoy your meal, then.â The vendor smiled and walked away.
Veronica looked at the motionless Xavier. âPut some syrup on the pancakes and eat them while theyâre hot,â she said.
âHow long has it been since we last had breakfast together?â
Xavier poured the syrup as he spoke.
âNever!â She replied.
His hand paused a little halfway through pouring. âYes, youâre right.â
After that, the two began to eat breakfast silently.
As Xavier ate, he praised, âIt really is delicious. I wonder if Iâll have a chance to come here again in the future.â
âPerhaps.â
She replied heartlessly, then put down her fork and stood up. âI need to use the bathroom.â
She hadnât slept for the entire night, and she didnât have time to go to the bathroom either. Naturally, she couldnât hold it in any longer.
However, when she emerged from the bathroom, Xavier had disappeared from the spot they were seated at earlier.
