Bumpkins Rich Handsome Husband

Chapter 523 She Picked the Best Man Ever

Matthew’s hands halted in their movements, and then he placed his cutlery away. Subsequently, he interlocked his fingers and looked at her seriously. “What do you want to know? When Crayson contacted me this morning, you already heard what he said.”

”I didn’t expect you to be in frequent communication with him.” “Both of you keep hiding things from me. So tell me, what was the reason you played their game and allowed them to kidnap you?” Veronica asked with pursed lips.

She always felt that the whole incident behind his abduction was riddled with oddities. Especially when it came to Troy. Thomas and Troy were both Matthew’s right-hand men. Matthew would undoubtedly not retain them by his side if they weren’t capable.

Matthew couldn’t help but laugh at her words. “You’re so smart. How should I deal with you?”

”Since you know that I’m smart, you should watch out. If you dare to plot against me in the future, you will be in trouble,” Veronica warned as she narrowed her eyes and graced him with a mischievous grin. ”Are you going to ‘punish’ me?”

He smirked. She was caught off guard when he made a dirty joke during the serious conversation. As Veronica glanced at Matthew in disbelief, she gaped at him before finally rebuking him, “You are shameless.”

Her response made him chuckle. ”I’m just teasing you.”

After he paused briefly and gave the whole situation some thought, he replied, “Since you have guessed it all, I’ll tell you what I was planning. I sneaked in to discover more clues for my investigation.”

“Which is?”

“There has always been someone discreetly investigating you, and he even placed several spies all around the place,” said Matthew as he shook his head. “This person is someone who has deep ties with the hidden clan, and his identity is highly obscure.”

“Crayson dispatched people from Castron to check the identity of the person behind the scenes, and the result pointed to Flake Denson. Although Flake is the leader of the Black Ace Mob, he is disabled and does not leave the castle during typical days.”

“In order to learn if Flake is truly disabled and to get a better understanding of him, I ventured into the castle.”

As he said that, he looked at Veronica and sighed regretfully. “Unfortunately, the person who has close ties with the hidden clan is not Flake.”

“If it wasn’t him, who is it?”

Veronica felt perplexed. Suddenly, her eyes lit up with a suspect, and she asked, “Why not investigate Hendrey Johnson? He raises the most red flags.”

Crayson began his investigation with him and later discovered Fleck along with his quest.

“It’s so problematic. Why don’t you just kidnap Hendrey and torture him to make him spill the truth?”
