Bumpkins Rich Handsome Husband

Chapter 407 Xavier’s Broken Promise

Ding— Suddenly, there was a notification on WhatsApp from Veronica’s phone.

She unlocked her phone and took a look. It was a message from Matthew. ‘Today’s your birthday and I’ve ordered you a cake. Send me your location. I’ll arrange for the cake to be delivered to you. I won’t turn up.’

Today’s not my birthday. Veronica frowned. She was quite aware that they had celebrated her birthday two days ago in Castron.

During her birthday, he had kept her up the entire night. That was not an enjoyable celebration at all. What does he mean by this text message, huh? Suddenly, it dawned upon her.

Although she had purposely flared up at Matthew by speaking in a rude voice earlier and sounded as if she was picking a fight, this was her tactic of confusing Matthew so that he would not overthink the situation.

However, he was too smart and he had discovered that she was currently held captive. He had sent this message to probe and figure out whether she was currently in a safe condition.

If she was safe, then she would be able to send him her location and he could come over to save her.

Veronica continued to consider the situation, but everything flashed through her mind quite quickly and she hesitated about whether to send her location to Matthew.

“What are you looking at? Give me your phone.”

Xavier scrutinized her coldly and realized that she was looking at her phone in a daze, which caused a sudden sense of apprehension in him. Consequently, he snatched Veronica’s phone from her hands.

At that moment, Matthew called Troy while seated in his car. “Contact the presidents of the banks and get them to approve the Crawford Family’s loan request.”

“Huh? Young Master Matthew, why did you suddenly decide to approve their loan?” Troy was slightly confused.

“Cut the crap and do what I say right away!” Matthew’s solemn voice rang out and he emphasized his instructions several times. Although Troy had no idea what was going on, he was aware of the severity of the situation.

After Troy hung up the phone, he instantly contacted all of the presidents of the banks in Bloomstead to approve the Crawford Family’s loan.

Meanwhile in the abandoned building on the outskirts of town, Veronica waited anxiously and checked her watch from time to time. “Don’t worry. Matthew will definitely sort things out.” She comforted Xavier.
