Bumpkin's Rich Handsome Husband novel Chapter 51

Chapter 51

Veronica was transferred overnight to Saint Hospital at 5:00AM.

She didn’t reject the arrangement because she knew that Tiffany was also in the same hospital at the moment. If I‘m transferred to the same hospital, she‘ll definitely come to have a ‘talk‘ with me. By then, it will only be more convenient for me to gather more evidence.

Because of that, she initially didn’t dare to sleep as she was afraid that the Larson Family would try to harm her again after failing to do so the last time.

From early morning until 8:00AM, Veronica felt extremely sleepy, but at the same time, she didn’t dare to fall asleep.

Then, Matthew showed up in her ward.

“How are you feeling?”

He was now back to his usual cold, handsome self. His short hair was well-groomed and there were no wrinkles on his suit, giving off the aura of his elegance.

When he approached her, she noticed the gauze wrapped around the back of his hand.

“Are you hurt?” It was rare for Veronica to speak to him in a calm manner.

It was not for any other reason; it was simply because Matthew rushed into the fire to save her yesterday.

She would always be grateful for what he did.

The man lowered his head and glanced at his bandaged hand unconcerned. “I’ve asked someone to look into the two people who kidnapped you yesterday,” he uttered.

“Oh.” She hummed her reply without much emotion because… she knew that her two kidnappers were of course taken away by her men. “Thank you for what you did yesterday.”

No matter what, she was still grateful to him.

While sitting on the nursing chair, Matthew couldn’t help but feel a little concerned when he looked at Veronica lying on the bed with her eyes so heavy that it could

barely stay open.

He thought that the reason why she didn’t dare to sleep was because of the shock she endured yesterday.

When he looked at her tanned face, he found her particularly beautiful as she was now not as ugly as he first thought she was. Maybe... she gets more beautiful the more I look at her.

Ever since last night, the image of Veronica on the bathroom floor had always showed up in Matthew’s mind whenever he wasn’t thinking about something else.

At that moment, he felt as though his heart had almost stopped since he was stunned by the shock for a little while.

He thought that she had died after inhaling the large amount of smoke that filled the bathroom.

When he reached out to her nose and made sure that she wasn’t dead, he felt like a huge weight had been lifted from his heart.

To Matthew, what he did last night was probably the craziest thing he ever did in his life!

“Why did you show up in my house?” a curious Veronica asked.

“Xavier told me that you were missing, so I went over there to find you,” he answered.

After nodding her head, she asked again, “Why did you save me yesterday?”

She originally expected an explanation from him, but he coldly uttered, “It was a fireman who saved you.”

“It wasn’t you?” Veronica furrowed her brows as she couldn’t understand why Matthew refused to admit to it.

“You’re not worthy of me saving you.” The man lifted his eyes, revealing his

indifference.

Looking at his cold attitude, she began to question herself. Was it really not him who saved me yesterday? If it wasn‘t him, where did the wound on the back of his hand come from?

After that, Matthew rose to his full height and left the ward with a cold face.

Thomas, who was guarding outside the ward, closed the door and left after Matthew.

As for Thomas, he stood and watched his boss back as he understood that Matthew just didn’t want to admit to his passive feelings. Maybe his pride is preventing him from accepting the fact that he has fallen in love with an ugly and ordinary girl from the countryside.

“You’re an adult now, so you should be more careful. Oh, dear.” Elizabeth sighed before looking at the intravenous drip. “How long do I have to stay here?”
