Bumpkins Rich Handsome Husband
Chapter 343 Kidnapped Veronica Xavier raised his eyebrows and smiled as he took out a piece of tissue and wiped the wine stains on his face carelessly. He said indifferently, âRoni, how long have we known each other? Do you think I donât understand you? Ever since you asked to borrow my phone that night, I noticed something was wrong with you. Do you really think I donât know anything?â
Veronica only felt extremely light-headed, and Xavierâs voice even made her ears ring.
âSince weâve already slept together, you might as well marry me. Otherwise, if outsiders find out, tell me, who else would want to marry you in the future?â He maintained a calm smile on his face from beginning to end, like the cat who got the cream.
âYou b*stardâ¦â
Thud! As soon as Veronica finished speaking, she collapsed to the ground.
The moment before she lost consciousness, she suddenly came to a realization. The reason why Xavier appeared here was because he had begun to doubt her a long time ago. Hence, before she came to this room, he had already bribed the waiters in Philâs Restaurant to tamper with her wine. She had underestimated him. She didnât expect that this matter would be exposed so quickly. What was more, she never expected that a simple meal with Yvonne would land her into such a situation.
â¦
Veronica passed out for quite a while. When she woke up and opened her eyes, she realized that she was in a hotel. In the familiar room, the murals on the wall were exactly the same as the room she stayed in that day. Lying on the bed, she struggled to get up, but her whole body was limp. However, when she turned her head to the side, she saw Xavierâs face beside her.
âRoni, are you awake?â Xavierâs torso was exposed as he propped his elbow on the pillow and supported his cheek with a hand. He then stretched out the other to caress her face gently. âTsk tskâ¦
Your skin is so soft it makes me want to kiss it.â
âGet your dirty hands off me!â Veronica gritted her teeth tightly, immediately turning furious. At that moment, she could almost feel the anger surging in her blood.
âDirty? Haha.â Xavier chuckled darkly, his smile becoming more and more hideous on his face as he exuded a chilling aura, as though he were a demon from hell. He smiled and squeezed her cheek hard with his hand, causing her face to ache in pain.
He tilted his head and said in a deep voice, âYou call this dirty? I donât even mind you having been âusedâ by Matthew, and you say that Iâm dirty? How pure do you think you are, huh? When Tiffany and Matthew got engaged, he was talking to me on the phone while sleeping with you at the hotel. At that time, why didnât you think you were dirty?â
After his cover had been blown, Xavier stopped holding back on his words and exposed all of the filthy deeds Veronica had done in the past, ruthlessly tearing her wounds open.
Veronica frowned in pain. âWhy are you doing this to me?â
She could not understand at all.
âWhy? Because I like you, and I want you. I poured my heart out to you, but what about you? Just because Melissa leaked that video of Tiffany, you decided to pull the trigger and hurt me and my sister?
My sister loves dancing and her beauty so much, but she canât even walk properly now, and itâll take a while for her to recover. Besides, she canât even dance in the future. She canât dance anymore, do you understand?!â
Xavier was extremely emotional, and he squeezed Veronicaâs cheek forcibly, as if he wanted to crush her bones with his bare hand. At that moment, he was like a stimulated lunatic with madness exuding out of every pore of his body.
âYou and Matthew ruined my sister and turned me into the laughing stock of Bloomstead, so Iâll make you taste that same pain now.â As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and pointed to the side where there was a camcorder facing the bed and continued, âDo you know whatâs the best way to make a person suffer? Hahaha, ruin the love of his heart with your own hands, of course! Iâm going to record the whole process so that Matthew can see with his own eyes how I toyed with his beloved woman.â
At that moment, Xavier regretted not laying his hands on her in the hotel last time.
âXavier, if⦠if you dare lay a finger on me, Iâll die right in front of you!â
Veronica wasnât just trying to intimidate him. If he really âtouchedâ her again, she would really want to die. However, she would take him down with her before she did!
âEven if you want to die, it depends on whether I give you that opportunity.â Xavier didnât care about what Veronica said at all as he probably didnât believe that she would try to die just because he touched her. After all, hadnât Matthew also laid his hands on her in the past?
Without wasting any more time, he leaned over and kissed her, but she turned her cheek slightly to the side and avoided him. This act of rejection caused his eyebrows to furrow, and he was suddenly filled with anger. He stared at Veronica steadily as his eyes narrowed, his gaze cold.
In the next second, he stretched out his hand and grabbed her neck tightly. âWhat, am I not worthy enough to sleep with you? When Matthew did this to you, I didnât see you resisting!â
Xavier would never forget that during Tiffany and Matthewâs engagement banquet at Hilton Hotel, he had called Veronica at that time and vaguely felt that her voice sounded strange, but he only thought that it was his imagination. It wasnât until he saw her emerge in a different set of clothing and sent someone to check the surveillance footage that he became certain the two of them were doing something unsightly in the lounge.
Veronica glared at him. His grip around her neck caused her to be in so much pain, as if her throat was about to break. Her face flushed as she struggled instinctively, but she suddenly noticed that her arms could move a little. With gritted teeth, she raised her arms with all her strength and slowly moved them toward her neck to pry Xavierâs hand away. However, he was too strong, and she only had less than one-tenth of his strength, so how could she be his opponent?
âUghâ¦â Veronica felt her mind going blank from the pain and the lack of oxygen. She couldnât shake Xavierâs hand off, but she accidentally touched the sapphire necklace that had been auctioned for 60 million around her neck. She clenched the necklace tightly with her small hand, and with a strength that came out of nowhere, she tore it off with one hand, her thumb pressing against the black wings that enclosed the sapphire. With a gentle push, the wings opened up like the scissor doors of a luxury car.
As she gripped the gemstone tightly in her hand and supported the hollow wings with her thumb, Veronica suddenly drew it toward Xavierâs face. With the âweaponâ in her hand, she could almost hear the subtle sound as the necklace cut through his skin.
âHissâ¦â As Xavier, who had his guard down, got scratched on his cheek by Veronica with a concealed weapon, he let go of her in pain and covered his face with his hand as a gush of viscous blood suddenly rolled down his face.
The wound was very deep and was about three inches long. In just an instant, blood dripped down his cheek onto the white quilt, dyeing it red. Xavierâs lips trembled slightly in pain as he glared at Veronica in disbelief.
