Bumpkins Rich Handsome Husband
Chapter 859 Mateoâs Emotional Breakdown âIs that so? Why not settle down here when we are old?â Veronica said jokingly. âThis place is Heaven on Earth, and we will be away from the hustle and bustle of the outside world. We can put everything behind, which is great, but we donât belong here.â
As soon as they walked into the courtyard of Mountainside Gardens, they heard Mateo and Crayson arguing. Matthew and Veronica looked at each other and held tightly onto each otherâs hands before walking into the main hall.
âWhy didnât you tell me that Matthew is actually Iron Pillar when you already knew about it?â Mateo pointed at Crayson furiously and fumed, âHer husband is just by her side, and you watched as I made a fool out of myself. Have you ever thought about my feelings?â
âI didnât get to tell you yet.â Crayson never expected Matthew to reveal his identity in front of Mateo so abruptly. While they were arguing, Matthew and Veronica walked in from the courtyard.
Destiny, who was standing at the side, was startled at the revelation. Upon noticing them, she stared at Matthew and asked, âYou are Matthew Kings?â
âYes.â Since Matthew did not have to put up an act anymore, he stood tall and reverted to his usual cold personality.
âArenât you Iron Pillar? If youâre Matthew, where is Iron Pillar? Donât tell me youâve killed him?â
Destiny wasnât close to Iron Pillar, but she knew that he was one of her subordinates. If Matthew really did kill him, then theyâd have unfinished business!
âHeh, do you think Iâm as cold-blooded as all of you?â Matthew narrowed his gaze and pursed his lips as he exuded confidence.
âSince youâve been in disguise, then you shouldnât have revealed yourself now.â The furious Crayson pointed at Matthew and confronted him wide-eyed. âDonât tell me that you plan to go to Zac!â The wise Crayson had managed to guess Matthewâs intention.
âWhat do you mean?â Mateo was puzzled.
âThatâs right,â Matthew admitted to the older gentlemanâs claim.
Hearing that, Mateo seemed to have made sense of the situation. âSo, the one who harmed Zac last night wasnât Xavier, but it was you, Matthew?â
âAre you really Matthew?â The enraged Mateo still wasnât convinced and approached him as he tried to remove Matthewâs makeup.
However, Matthew pushed his hand away and scoffed coldly. âGet away from me.â
There was such a stark contrast between the aura and the honest appearance of Iron Pillar and Matthew that Mateo thought he was hallucinating.
âYou really are Matthew! Iâve spent almost a month with you, but I didnât realize your identity. How can I be this dumb!â
He thought that he was hilariously stupid. He felt embarrassed when he recalled how he tried to get chummy with Veronica and even confessed to her a few times! All of them were done right in front of Matthew.
âMateo, itâs not your fault. Matt learned about the art of disguise, which was why he could hide his identity from a lot of people, including your grandpa. Iâm sure that he just found out about it not long ago.â Veronica tried to console him as she didnât want to see him beating himself up because of it.
âLiars! All of you are liars!â The furious Mateo scoffed and pushed Veronica away before running out.
Veronica lost her balance, but Matthew grabbed her and pulled her into his arms.
The infuriated Crayson looked around and watched Matthew leave through the window as he shook his head. âWe have sinned!â He looked over at Veronica and Matthew before sighing. After taking a seat on the couch, he took his cigar out and started smoking. Destiny, on the other hand, couldnât stop staring at Matthew as she was still shocked at the sudden revelation.
