Bumpkins Rich Handsome Husband

Chapter 531 Screwed Her Over

Their breakup was painful for Veronica, but it was painful for Matthew as well. As he restrained his fondness for her, he could hardly sleep at night and barely had any appetite. If not, he would not have lost his mind in the cave with Veronica when they went on a picnic together at Qurra Mountain. “Really?” Veronica asked doubtfully. “Don’t you already know the answer?”

“I don’t.” Veronica shook her head, speaking in a serious manner. The truth was that she had really forgotten about that matter. Matthew’s face darkened, and he pinched her waist gently with his hand that was wrapped around her as a small punishment. “Have you already forgotten about the incident in Qurra Mountain, hmm?”

When he mentioned Qurra Mountain, Veronica’s face reddened, and her ears heated up as she lightly pursed her red lips. “Uh… It was so long ago… O-Of course I’ve forgotten.”

Although more than a month had passed, she would definitely not forget about something as wild and exciting as that. She was only ashamed to say it out loud.

“If you’ve really forgotten, I can take you back for more.” Though his words were innocuous on the surface, they seemed to have a deeper meaning as he spoke.

Her brows furrowed and her eyes sparkled as she replied meekly, “That depends on my mood.” Upon seeing her pure yet seductive expression, Matthew was unable to hold himself back.

He leaned close to her ear and said, “Now that I think about it, you must’ve enjoyed yourself that day too, Roni…”

“You dirty old man.” Veronica rolled her eyes. When she heard the sound of the elevator from the hallway, she began pushing him away. “Someone’s coming. Behave yourself, will you?”

“It’s not like we’re doing something shameful. Why are you scared…”

Just as Matthew was speaking, Veronica caught a glance of the people exiting the elevator. All of a sudden, her eyes widened, and a look of panic flashed past her eyes. In the next moment, she grabbed Matthew and dragged him into the living room, closing the door smoothly behind her.

“What’s wrong?” Matthew asked as he leaned against the wall of the entrance hall.

“Shh.” Veronica raised her finger against her lips, signaling him to keep his voice down. “It’s Ruka. I didn’t expect her to be in this hotel.”

When Thomas contacted her in Castron and asked her to save Matthew, Veronica called Ruka after leaving the hotel, saying that she had an urgent family matter and had to return to her country first. As Ruka was worried about Hendrey, she didn’t ask any further questions. However, she did not know that Veronica did not return to Destor at all, but had a narrow escape from death in Castron instead.

“Even if she saw us, it won’t matter.” On the contrary, Matthew felt that it was time to announce their relationship to the public, so he did not want to hide it anymore.

“Have you lost your mind?” Veronica frowned. “Ruka used to like you so much, and she gave up on you because she saw me kissing you while cross-dressing at the mall and thought you swung the other way. If she found out that you’re dating me now, she’d easily guess that I was the one who kissed you at the mall that day. Aren’t you just helping me gain another enemy?”

“How long do we have to keep this up?” Matthew’s face sank. He seemed unhappy.

“Now’s not the time for this. Let’s talk about it later.” After saying that, Veronica did not forget to warn him. “Also, you must not let Yvonne know about our relationship. If she knows that we’re dating, she might think that I paid off that hospital to prove that it’s a lie that Conrad doesn’t have cancer.”

Although Matthew and Conrad were uncle and nephew, they were also rivals in the Kings Family. Yvonne’s family was well off, and she also bore Conrad’s child, which gave that child too much influence on the Kings Family. Once Yvonne found out that she was dating Matthew, she would definitely think that she was lying to secure Matthew’s position as heir to the Kings Family.
