Bumpkins Rich Handsome Husband Chapter 841

Chapter 841 Matthew Survived “Veronica is in the bedroom,” Xavier replied. Skyler immediately opened the door and stepped inside the bedroom. It wasn’t until he saw Veronica lying comfortably in bed with a blanket on her that he finally felt relieved. “Phew! Are you alright, Roni?”

“Skyler, Matthew… I mean, Iron Pillar is in danger. You must find him at once!” Veronica nervously said the moment they saw each other. “Look at yourself. You should worry more about yourself instead of him.” Skyler walked closer to the bed and sat down, lifting a quarter of the blanket before running a quick diagnosis on Veronica.

A few moments later, he detected nothing wrong with her just when he spotted the empty spoon on the table with a little bit of residual medicine. It was then that he heaved a sigh of relief once again. “You’ll be fine in a while. Dang it, Zac! I’m going to make that fella pay when I meet him again!”

“Forget about me. Find Iron Pillar.” As Veronica was feeling better, she grabbed Skyler by his sleeve and implored him to search for Matthew.

On the other hand, Xavier was merely standing by the door with both of his hands in his pocket, leaning on the door frame while silently watching the duo. At that moment, they were interrupted by a familiar voice from the living room. “Roni?!”

It turned out that Xavier only left the door ajar right after he let Skyler in. Thus, that allowed Matthew, whose arrival was long overdue, to enter the room before he called out to Veronica. As he was too worried about her, he unknowingly dropped his pretense and addressed her the way he had always been used to.

Upon glimpsing Xavier, he walked past him and approached the bed, whereupon he grabbed Skyler by his shirt and shoved him aside. Then, he sat in the chair and held Veronica’s hand tightly, showing her his concern. “Are you alright, girl? I’m sorry that I’m late.” With his mind full of Veronica, Matthew was so caught up in her status that he neglected the other two men who were also in the bedroom.

When Xavier heard how Matthew called Veronica, he straightened his body, stiffening from head to toe.

He then recalled looking back at the living room when he saw ‘Iron Pillar’ approaching them. However, when ‘Iron Pillar’ walked past him and shoved Skyler aside before holding Veronica’s hand, Xavier’s eyes were filled with indifference. He is… Matthew? Matthew Kings?! The man clenched his fists tightly, radiating an intimidating aura. At the same time, he couldn’t help but fix his gaze on Matthew with rage, just as the back of his hands were covered in veins. However, when Xavier shifted his eyes to Veronica, he realized the lady was also looking at him instantly.

As their eyes met, Veronica apologized guiltily. “I’m sorry, Xavier.” I’m really sorry that—I lied.

Xavier had put his vengeance behind him ever since Matthew faked his death, believing that Matthew was truly dead. At the same time, he felt sorry for Veronica’s fate and even tried to protect her by marrying Antheena. Nonetheless, he didn’t expect everything he saw and heard to be just a show Veronica and Matthew put on to fool everyone else.

So, even the funeral was fake?! She lied to everybody! She lied to me!

At the thought of that, Xavier was heartbroken and disappointed, ridiculing himself for being a fool that was toyed with. While his gentle gaze turned into a pair of soulless eyes, Veronica, who noticed his depression and negative emotions, was overwhelmed by a stab of pain.

Soon, Veronica removed her blanket and sat up straight when she felt much better. “I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to keep you in the dark.” In fact, she was also in great pain, finding herself stuck between Matthew and Xavier. After all, while Matthew was the man she loved, Xavier was the one who had rescued her again and again.
