Bumpkin's Rich Handsome Husband novel Chapter 226

Chapter 226 No Abnormalities

“Inside? Where are you going?”

Thomas was momentarily stunned before it suddenly dawned on him. “Is there a cave inside?”

Matthew stood up and instructed the men, “You guys can send Roni to the hospital and Thomas will stay here with me.”

“Copy.” The men responded affirmatively and yelled out to the other men on top of the cliff. Subsequently, a rope ladder was flung down and one of the men tied a rope around Veronica to carry her on his back. He clung to the rope ladder and allowed the men on top to pull him out.

The others left the cave too while Matthew took the opportunity to share with Thomas about the secret chamber below. However, it was two hundred meters away from their current location.

They submerged into the water once again and brought the container with them.

Finally, they returned to the bedroom where Veronica had been attacked by the unknown creatures. Just as they planned to take the mysterious water from the jar, they strangely discovered that the objects in the jar had disappeared and there was not a single droplet of water left either!

Matthew stood in front of the bedroom and stared coldly at the two bowls and jar in front of him. He was positive that someone else had entered the place.

However, the maze was much bigger than they thought, so it would be virtually impossible to search for a person here. As such, he placed the two bowls into the seal-proof container and left the place.

When Matthew made his way out once again, he was totally worn out as his stamina had reached its peak. If this was under normal circumstances, he could have completed the swim within four minutes and fifty seconds, but due to a myriad of factors—injuries, high fever and hunger—it took him five minutes and thirty seconds to complete the swim out instead; he even choked along the way.

Thomas remained by Matthew’s side the entire time and was shocked beyond words. Never in his wildest imagination would he have expected that there was such a huge secret chamber underneath. At that point, he finally caught on to the reason why Matthew and Veronica had disappeared without a trace.

“Send some men to guard this place. Let’s keep this chamber a top secret for now,” Matthew instructed. He was adamant about keeping this place unknown until he found out exactly what was going on inside.

Who’s the other person in the secret chamber? He had no idea about that, but he was definitely going to figure out the truth.

…

Veronica was sent over to a private hospital in an unconscious state and the doctors quickly ran several tests on her. Meanwhile, Matthew was escorted to get a tetanus shot and his wound dressed too.

The thenar muscle on his right hand was badly bitten, so he had to get four stitches for each side of the bite marks. Subsequently, he had an infusion administered to bring down his fever and prevent infections.

With the IV drip above him, he looked over at the woman sound asleep next to him while waiting for her medical result; it was Veronica who he shared the room with.

An hour later, Matthew held in his hand Veronica’s medical report regarding the various tests conducted.

However, as soon as he saw the analysis report, he was enraged. “Is this the outcome of your tests? There’s nothing wrong with her blood? Her CT scan shows that everything is normal?”

The director of the hospital stood in front of Matthew and apologized repeatedly upon noticing Matthew’s enraged expression. “Young Master Matthew, we’ve done the most extensive body check for her. Besides, you have to trust our capabilities. We’ve indeed examined her and run all the tests carefully, but we can’t identify anything wrong with her at all.”

As Matthew recalled the incident from that night, he felt that it was indeed strange and full of mystery.

There was in fact something in the jar of water, but it was invisible to the eyes. Furthermore, he had seen a bulge on the back of Veronica’s hand moving within her.

As for the jar, it was completely empty when they went back for it. This was an indication that someone deliberately prevented him from uncovering the truth. He was confidently sure that there was something in there that was scentless and colorless.

“Leave the room!” He waved his hand and slammed the document onto the table as he retorted. Everyone then swiftly left the room.

Meanwhile, Matthew sat in the room for quite some time before finally grabbing his phone to call his buddy, Skyler. “Drew, come over to the private hospital right now.”

“No sh*t, Matt! Caleb and I were just about to visit you. Are you at the private hospital? Sure, we’ll be there right away.” After hanging up the phone, Caleb, Skyler and Miguel instantly made their way to the hospital.
