Bumpkins Rich Handsome Husband Chapter 276

Chapter 276 Stable Condition

Veronica leaned back into the seat and closed her eyes for a moment, then decided to give Daniella a call. “Hey, Mom. Where are you guys?”

“Collins City Hospital,” Daniella replied.

“Which ward?”

“Just a minute. We’re at Block 21, Room 2109.”

“Got it. I’m on my way.” Veronica hung up and turned to speak to Matthew, who had his eyes on the road. “Could you drop me off at Collins City Hospital?”

When she called Daniella earlier, she was told that Crayson had been sent to the district hospital for a medical examination. Now that he was transferred to the city hospital, there wasn’t much distance they needed to cover.

Both Veronica and Matthew were silent throughout the ride. They were as good as a pair of strangers.

It wasn’t until they had walked into the hospital’s patient ward that she shot him a warning look and said, “Don’t say anything weird in front of my parents.” She shuddered to think how her parents would react if they found out about the recent happenings in her life, and she would rather Matthew keep his mouth shut the entire time.

He hummed curtly in response, as if he was only humoring her, and said nothing more.

They then headed out of the elevator and made their way over to Room 2109. Pushing the door open, Veronica was greeted by the sight of her adoptive parents and Crayson, who lay unmoving in the hospital bed.

Panic seized her as she rushed up to them and pressed, “Mom, Dad, how is he doing?”

“He only just got out of the emergency room, and the doctor says he’s recuperating,” Daniella explained morosely.
