Bumpkins Rich Handsome Husband Chapter 878

Chapter 878 Don’t Worry, I’m Here with You The group of people had tanned skin and looked around their fifties. They walked in vigorous strides, indicating they had extraordinary skills. “Who are you? What do you want from me?”

The fear of the unknown enveloped Tiffany and the fright was tearing her apart. As she had no idea what they were saying, her eyes brimmed with tears due to the growing anxiety.

The helplessness only intensified as she waited in anticipation. She knew that it was Veronica who inflicted the feeling in the first place. Hence, her hatred for Veronica grew and it seeped into her very bones.

The group talked for a while before Crayson gave Mateo a look. The younger man nodded slightly.

Then, he wore the gloves and washed his hands before picking up a syringe from the tray on the table and walking over to Tiffany.

Her eyes widened at the sight as the blood drained from her face. She didn’t stop struggling as she panicked. “Stay back! Don’t come any closer! What exactly do you want from me? You can’t do this to me. No—”

She kept shouting at him to stop. However, before she could finish her words, he sank the syringe in his hand into the side of her neck.

He remarked impatiently, “Be quiet. I would’ve already done something earlier on if I wanted to kill you.”

“Then, what do… you… want…”

As he injected the drug into her body, her voice grew softer and it was barely a whisper. Her eyelids gradually became heavier before she fell into the darkness.

…

Meanwhile, in the Mountainside Gardens, Veronica had trouble falling asleep, which explained her behavior of reading a book in bed.

At that moment, somebody pushed the windows open. Matthew leaped into the room and closed them.

Shutting the book, she sat upright and asked, “Where did you go?”

It was 2.00AM. He was wearing all black from head to toe, which was proof that he had errands to run.

“Master Crayson took Tiffany with them.”

Taking off the stealth suit, he explained, “Mateo followed him. It seems like they’ve proceeded as planned.”

Veronica wasn’t surprised to hear that.

Her brows knitted into a frown and she sighed. “Tiffany has been a pawn in his plan since the beginning. There’s no way he’ll give up on her. After all, she’s still useful. It’s just that I—”

She stopped abruptly as something in her mind held her back from finishing her sentence.

Meanwhile, Matthew folded the stealth suit and put them away. He was now wearing the same outfit he wore in the day.

Steadily walking to the bed, he took a seat next to her and held her hand before he gently assured her, “I’ll protect you. The same thing will never happen to you.”

He could tell what she was worried about.

Since Crayson and his men could use the secret skill of the hidden clan to seal Tiffany’s memory, they might also use the same skill on Veronica.

If the day ever came when her memory was sealed, it would bring unforeseeable consequences.

She held his fingers anxiously as she studied the wound on his palm. Her fingers gently brushed the skin next to his wound. “Matt, you’ve already done a lot for me. If anything happens to us one day, you have to save yourself. Remember that our children are still waiting for us in Bloomstead.”

At the end of that sentence, she laughed at herself. “Maybe our children are now in the hidden clan.”

She couldn’t ensure her children’s safety when she left them in Bloomstead, especially when Zac, the Ledgers, and the Elrods coveted them.

“Silly girl, don’t worry about it. You can count on me. I won’t let anything happen to you and our children.”

Putting a hand on hers, Matthew then used his other hand to embrace her and let her lean against him.

He slowly patted her back to soothe her.

“You aren’t invincible. You can’t cover all the bases. I’m just saying that if we are exposed to danger one day and only one of us can make it out alive, you must save yourself.”
