Bumpkin's Rich Handsome Husband novel Chapter 127

Chapter 127

“Since the Kings Family is strict with their children, why would he be—”

“Yvonne, are you gonna stay or not? Get out of here if you aren‘t!” Veronica snapped right away without giving Yvonne the opportunity to finish her sentence. Then, she shoved Yvonne into her room, saying, “Here, the closet is full of new clothes. We’re about the same height, so pick your clothes yourself. The bathroom is over there. Hurry up and wash yourself before going to sleep!”

“Oh, okay, okay.” Sensing that this topic was a taboo for Veronica, Yvonne dared not ask her further about it.

Veronica then went to the living room‘s bathroom and furtively called the landlady of the apartment she had rented today to ask her if she could quit the lease and have her rent refunded.

“Are you crazy? How could you quit the lease right now after moving in just today? Are you trying to make a fool of me?”

“It‘s okay that you‘re angry, but you shouldn‘t be yelling at me. It‘s fine that I can‘t have my rent refunded, but what are you speaking so harshly for?”

“How could you ask such a retarded question when you know that I‘m angry? You must be out of your mind! Beep—” The landlady showered abuses on Veronica before hanging up right away.

Veronica‘s lips twitched at the sight of the ended phone call, “Sigh, I can‘t have my rent refunded. It‘s over 20,000 lost. It really hurts.” Whenever she thought about it. she felt a surge of exasperation. It‘s all Matthew, that *sshole‘s fault! If it weren‘t for him. I wouldn‘t have lost over 20,000.

As soon as she opened the bathroom door to come out, she saw Matthew standing outside. Her face darkened, and she snapped in displeasure, “Why are you standing at the bathroom door? Why have I never realized you‘ve got such a hobby?”

Matthew raised his hand and loosened his necktie with an air of impatience. Then, he seized Veronica by the collar and pinned her against the wall, asking, “Are you close to Yvonne?”

“What does that have to do with you?!” Veronica shot back snappishly.

“How dare you be friends with her? She‘s from an unknown background. Are you

ured of living?” What a foolish woman who dares to bring anybody home!

Her head tilted to one side, Veronica stared at Matthew as her obsidian–like bright eyes sparkled with a smile. “Why would I? She‘s only a good friend of mine.” Good friend? No, Yvonne and I were only forced to live together for a week after being kidnapped, she thought. Of course, she had some suspicions about Yvonne‘s appearance, but she was certain that the latter wasn‘t sent by the Larson Family. There was nothing else about Veronica that Yvonne could take advantage of. In that case, the only thing that could explain this was that… Yvonne‘s purpose in getting close to her was to get close to Matthew

Veronica knew that Matthew was apologizing for his behavior yesterday. She had smelled alcohol on him yesterday as soon as he came back, but the amount of alcohol wasn‘t sufficient to make him lose self–control. “So what?” She knitted her brows. “It‘s pointless to give an absurd explanation right now after you‘ve done it.” In other words, she was accusing him of talking nonsense by blaming his behavior yesterday on alcohol after he had raped her and slept with her. Or are you saying that you‘re a brainless creature who has no control over your lower hall?

Veronica was slightly startled. Then, with the benefit of hindsight, she realized why Matthew would say just now that their relationship would be limited to that of brother and sister. As it turned out, it was because the two were planning to get married in two months due to Tiffany‘s pregnancy. Feeling suffocated at once, she instantly felt her heart ache terribly. Why does my heart ache so terribly? That‘s right why wouldn‘t my heart ache terribly? How am I supposed to avenge my adoptive parents and undo the injustice done to me if he marries Tiffany?
