Bumpkin's Rich Handsome Husband novel Chapter 745

Chapter 745 Deception

Veronica thought it was just a coincidence, but now she knew it wasn’t. That was nothing but a scheme.

Hendrey pursed his lips and clenched his fists. Instead of answering the question, he changed the subject. “The leader has something to say.”

“You’re Tiffany’s ally. Why did you want to see me?” “I am no ally of hers. We just have a common goal.” “You’re honest. Do you want a compliment?” Veronica shook her head in resignation.

“We’ll talk about our business later. You have something else on your plate now.” He turned to Tanya. “Tell her what’s on your mind. Liam and I will translate.”

Tanya nodded. A frown furrowed her forehead, and an unfathomable look appeared in her eyes. A moment of silence later, she said, “I’m not one for pleasantries. To be honest, I want to work with you.”

Liam translated it for Veronica.

“I’m listening.”

“I know about you and Hayley, and I know what happened in Bloomstead, but speaking as a mother, I think Hayley’s a selfish soul. Your family’s in that city, and yet she brings you all the way here. She wishes that you would stay. My sources tell me that she’s going to bring your foster parents and their children over next.”

“A tempting offer, but I never said I wanted to leave.” A smile curled her lips, and she pushed her fringe back. “You don’t know me at all. My foster parents were born in a place of poverty, and I was destined to live the life of a poor woman. It almost traumatized me, but now life has changed for the better. I’m rich, powerful, and well-fed. Why would I want to leave?” she lied.

Tanya’s face fell, and she looked at Hendrey. “I thought you said she doesn’t care about money.”

She was talking in the clan language, and neither of the gentlemen bothered to translate. They thought Veronica had no idea what they were talking about.

A befuddled Hendrey shook his head dumbly. “She’s lying. I’ve known her for many years. I’m sure she’s lying.”
