Bumpkins Rich Handsome Husband Chapter 806

Chapter 806 Nemesis Nearly instantly, Veronica’s gaze toward Eleanor became defensive.

The princess had stunning exotic features, to begin with—just a little makeup would already make her a bombshell. Her beauty was one of sexy yet not sultry, as her every action reflected her confidence and sophistication in her beauty.

Even Veronica had to admit that she paled slightly next to Eleanor despite believing she was beautiful as well.

“No clue. Do you need him for something, Your Highness?” Veronica snubbed Liam’s apology automatically and put all her attention on Eleanor instead.

“Not really. I just thought I could spar with him, seeing that he’s a pretty skilled fighter,” the princess answered indifferently.

Aside, Dominik shook his head with a helpless smile as he explained, “Please don’t mind Eleanor, Miss Murphy. She has always been like this. She has been practicing martial arts since she was a child, you see, so she loves to spar with others.”

“Hey, I was apologizing to you!” Liam shot Veronica an exasperated glare.

When had he, the remarkable prince of the hidden clan, ever been snubbed like this?!

Still, Veronica didn’t want to hold on to that issue, so she said, “You didn’t mean it anyway, so let’s just leave it in the past.”

With that, she turned to the other two, “Do you have anything else? If not, I’m going back in.”

“Are you not going to invite us in for some tea?” Eleanor hurriedly spoke up, seeing that Veronica had actually turned around. “Is this how you Destorians treat your guests?”

The reason the siblings had come was that Eleanor wanted to see Matthew, so it was only normal that she felt indignant when she was already asked to leave after only standing at the gates for a while.

“Why you—” Mateo, not one happy to see the siblings, wanted to turn them away when Crayson came out of the house.

“Please forgive their rudeness, Your Highnesses. We are most certainly honored that you’d visit us,”

said Crayson with a smile as he strode over.

“Who are you?” Liam asked contemptuously because he genuinely didn’t know who Crayson was.

Instead, it was Dominik who nodded a greeting. “You must be the legendary Master Waylen Elrod, aren’t you?”

Back when the Elrod Clan still reigned over the hidden clan decades ago, Waylen had served as the chief minister, a position equivalent to a nation’s prime minister.

What was more, because he excelled in governing and assisted the former head of the clan in leading the nation to prosperity, he became revered by many.

“I’ve heard so much about you, Master Waylen. What an honor it is to meet you,” greeted Eleanor with a slight nod.

Though both regarded the other party as a nemesis, window dressing still had to be done. After all, the Ledger Clan claimed to tolerate the Elrods in public, so they would spare the latter even if they were the formerly hidden clan monarchy.

“To think Your Highnesses still remember this old man. Hahaha,” Crayson guffawed, then shot a disapproving glance at Veronica. “What happened to your manners? Why didn’t you invite Their Highnesses inside? Do you want people to criticize me for being discourteous?”

“It’s all me. Roni has nothing to do with this.” Mateo defended Veronica, probably because he didn’t like seeing Crayson reprimand her.

“Alright, enough. Please come in.” Crayson invited the Ledger siblings inside and then led them to the living room.

As everyone took their seats on the couch, the servants went to get refreshments.

Just then, Matthew came out from the kitchen wearing an apron. It seemed that he was working away in the kitchen a second ago.

“Iron!” Eleanor’s eyes lit up at once. “What is this that you’re doing?”
