Bumpkins Rich Handsome Husband Chapter 9


    Chapter 9


    But they really have gone too far in humiliating me, thought Veronica. “He’s not at home. Come back


    later.” Rachel closed the gate right away, not wanting to waste her breath talking to Veronica. However,


    Veronica seemed to have predicted that Rachel would do so; she pushed the gate open and went


    inside before Rachel could close it. Rachel flew into a rage. “What are you doing, Veronica? Get out at


    once!” “Who is it, Mom?” Tiffany happened toe downstairs. Upon seeing Veronica, she couldn’t


    help feeling annoyed. “What are you doing here, Veronica? This is my home!” They’re my closest kin,


    yet they loathe me so much, thought Veronica. Her heart twinged, but she looked calm and


    unperturbed. “Nothing. I just want to get mypensation for saving Young Master Matthew.” Her


    words were met with Rachel’s ridicule. “What does that have to do with you? Tiffy’s the one who saved


    him.” The one sitting before Rachel was also her biological daughter; but Rachel, who lived in thep of


    luxury, disliked Veronica, who was from the depths of the country. She couldn’t help feeling that this


    country girl was rude, unreasonable, uncouth, and unpresentable. If the outsiders learn about


    Veronica’s existence, it might ruin Tiffy’s and my perfect image in the eyes of the public. Veronica


    looked sidelong at Rachel before turning to look at Tiffany with augh. “You two have proved yourself


    to be mother and daughter. Both of you can lie without turning a hair. You two are really as bold as


    brass, I’m afraid.” “Shut the f*ck up, Veronica!” Tiffany chided. As she really didn’t want to see Veronica,


    she said to Rachel, “Mom, she’s here for money. Just give her 50,000 and tell her to get out as soon as


    possible.” “Yeah, you’re right, Tiffy.” Rachel nodded. “I’ll go upstairs and get her the cash right away.”


    However, Veronica said shockingly, “Since the Larsons have lots of money, give me the 100 million that


    I deserve for saving Young Master Matthew’s life so that we won’t owe each other anything anymore.”


    “Don’t be too insatiable, Veronica!” Tiffany red at her. “We’ll only give you 100,000 at most.” “We’ll


    give you 100,000, but you have to leave Bloomstead at once after getting the money. As for the


    Kingses, they’ll only acknowledge Tiffy as the one who saved Young Master Matthew’s life. Moreover,


    you said you saved his life, but do you have any evidence of that?” Rachel asked. “You think I’ll have


    no way to prove it after you all deleted the footage and stole the ring, huh? Don’t forget it was recorded


    on the food delivery app that I had ridden past the intersection that day.” Veronica shed the cell


    phone in her hand. Then, she continued, “Well, the food delivery record can’t prove 100-percent that it


    was me who saved Matthew’s life, but Tiffany didn’t even receive a food delivery order that day.


    Wouldn’t Matthew get suspicious? Anyway, rather than getting myself in trouble without getting the


    reward from him, I’d prefer to grant Tiffany’s wish.” In reality, Veronica didn’t deliver the takeout to the


    customer that day, so she couldn’t prove that she had passed through the road. This was also why she


    didn’t speak out and refute Tiffany when thetter lied in front of Matthew. In other words, the food


    delivery app wasn’t sufficient as evidence, but it could be used to ‘scare’ the Larsons, who had a guilty


    conscience. “How dare you!” Tiffany didn’t expect Veronica to have a card up her sleeve. Fearing that


    Veronica might expose her lies in front of Matthew, she asked, “How much do you want?” “Since you


    were the one who gave birth to me, Mrs. Larson, I’ll give you all a 90% discount. Give me 10 million.”


    Rachel replied, “10 million? What nonsense are you talking about?” Tiffany said, “You really are insane,


    Veronica!” The mother and daughter couldn’t bow to Veronica’s threats, of course. How dare someone


    from the depths of the country demand such an exorbitant price? Without wasting her breath, Veronica


    stood up and pretended to leave. “Since you two don’t agree to it, I’ll go to Old Mrs. Kings. She’s the


    Kings Family’s matriarch, so she’ll give the final word.” Tiffany had yet to figure out how Elizabeth got to


    know Veronica or why she was so partial to thetter. Consequently, she couldn’t help feeling that


    Veronica’s existence was a major threat to her. “Wait a minute,” she called out to Veronica. “Mom and I


    have to discuss this with Dad, so wait here,” she said while taking Rachel’s hand. “Mom, let’s go


    upstairs and call Dad.” With that, the mother and daughter went upstairs, whereas Veronica waited


    downstairs. However, the Larsons were too despicable. Fearing that they might be discussing some


    mean tricks upstairs, Veronica went upstairs worriedly. Dragon’s Creek Vi was an old vi that was


    built some years ago, so its soundproofing wasn’t very good. Veronica could vaguely hear the


    conversation between Tiffany and Rachel while standing at the door. She listened for a while, but she


    didn’t hear anything like which dirty tricks they would be using against her or her adoptive parents from


    their conversation. Inwardly, she couldn’t help mocking herself for being overcautious and somewhat


    paranoid, and she got ready to go downstairs. Just then, however, she heard words like “adoptive


    parents” and “car ident.” As she couldn’t make out the sentences clearly, she pressed her ear


    against the door and listened carefully out of curiosity. “Veronica’s insatiable, and she’s the spitting


    image of me. If we keep her around, she’ll be a threat to us. And besides, Old Mrs. Kings likes her


    so much. How am I gonna get married to Matthew with her existence?” “That being said, Tiffy, we’ve


    crippled her adoptive father in the car ident in order to force her to donate her bone marrow to your


    brother. Don’t tell me you’re gonnay a hand on her even?” “Are you stupid, Mom? As long as


    Veronica’s alive, she’ll hinder me from marrying into the Kings Family! That’s unless… you can make


    her a vegetable too!” As Tiffany spoke of this, her voice went up a few octaves all of a sudden; she got


    somewhat anxious. Standing outside the door, Veronica heard every word Tiffany had said, which sent


    a chill running down her spine. Still, she only felt her blood boiling. Over two months ago, Floch Larson


    and Rachel suddenly showed up before Veronica, saying they could bring her back to the Larson


    Family on condition that she donate her bone marrow to her leukemic younger brother. They had no


    choice but to go to Veronica because Tiffany’s bone marrow didn’t match his. Naturally, Veronica


    refused, which was why her adoptive parents suddenly had a car ident a month ago. After her


    adoptive parents were hospitalized with grave injuries, Floch and Rachel showed up again, saying they


    could treat her adoptive parents for free as long as she was willing to donate her bone marrow to the


    Larson Family’s youngest son. At the time, Veronica was a little suspicious of the car ident, as well


    as Floch and Rachel’s sudden appearance. But in the end, she thought that they wouldn’t go so far as


    to resort to such cruel means as her biological parents. s… She was too naive. Breathing fire at


    once, Veronica trembled all over with rage. She held onto the doorknob, wanting to burst into the room


    and confront them.
