Bumpkins Rich Handsome Husband

Chapter 409 Veronica Is on the Brink of Death

However, Xavier’s psychotic infatuation was terrifying. Veronica’s body trembled in anger and there was a wave of fury that filled her. She had to control herself to stop herself from strangling him.

She glared at the man she used to think was her best friend and she seemed to find him much more distant and terrifying than ever. “Hah!” After quite some time, she revealed a smile.

She leaned back against her seat resignedly. “I can’t stop what’s coming because it is only a matter of time. Luckily, Melissa has already pre-warned me about what is coming, so I’m not as fearful as I should be. If you really intend to die, then I don’t mind dragging your sister along. That’s fine with me.”

Veronica was not one to be confined by the ways of society since she was a child, so even if the video was released, she was not going to seek death because of that.

As soon as Xavier heard that, he tilted his head and scrutinized her with a solemn expression. They looked each other squarely in the eyes for a few seconds before he finally voiced out, “You’re my Roni, so I won’t stand by the side and watch you perish.”

With his strong feelings for her, he reached out to stroke her cheek, but before he could even touch her face, she slapped his hand aside. “Don’t touch me.”

The sharp look she shot at him was the look she gave an enemy.

“Get your filthy hand away from me!” Veronica yelled out the last sentence and it was quite hurtful as he felt a sharp pang in his heart.

At that point, his expression tensed, and his hand remained frozen by the side of her face. His facial muscles twitched significantly. “Filthy hand? Hah! That’s such a great description! You’ve finally admitted that you loathe me.”

Veronica was significantly speechless by his words.

She leaned back in her seat and refused to say anything. After all, she felt that whatever she said was basically a waste of breath and she could not do anything about someone as intent on causing trouble as Xavier.

The time ticked by gradually and Veronica was still considering how to escape. She was inside the car with the doors locked, so she could not get out at all. This is getting frustrating!

As she noticed that they were about to enter the highway, she instantly spoke up, “I need to use the bathroom.”
