Bumpkins Rich Handsome Husband Chapter 83


    Chapter 83


    At this point, Veronica walked up to Tiffany. Lifting her hands, the former wrapped them around Tiffany‘s


    neck and pinned her to the wall. “Also, if any of you touch my parents again, I‘ll make sure to bring you


    to the grave with me when I die!” Veronica hissed.


    Recently, for reasons beyond her control, Veronica had been forced to y nice with Floch and Rachel


    in front of the Kings Family, but that didn‘t mean she got along with her enemy now.


    “Ugh!” Caught off–


    guard by Veronica‘s sudden actions, Tiffany could only feel the pain in her neck and theck of airflow t


    hrough her lungs. “L–Let go of me… Let go…”


    She struggled and tried to resist to the best of her ability, but found that her strength was no match for


    Veronica‘s.


    Suddenly, Tiffany was terrified, as she was realizing only now that she had underestimated Veronica‘s


    abilities.


    “Let go of you? Of course I‘ll let you go. But


    —” Veronica patted Tiffany‘s cheek warningly with her free hand as she murmured, “–


    you‘d best deliver my message. And by the way, I am now Elizabeth Kings‘ god–


    granddaughter. So, step out of line again, and I‘ll make sure that you never marry into the Kings Family.


    ” With that, she suddenly let go.


    Instantly, air rushed back into Tiffany‘s lungs and she took deep breaths as she held onto


    her neck. At that moment, she felt hurt, pained and furious as she thought to herself, How is it that I can


    never outmatch Veronica?!


    Weakly, Tiffany leaned against the wall and red at Veronica with red–


    rimmed eyes. “Don‘t get toocent. I‘ll get my payback.”


    “Let‘s see who wins, then!” Veronica sneered before turning to leave.


    Instantly, the smile on her face vanished, only to be reced with a cold, sinister expression.

    While she was, in fact, no actual threat to the Larsons, she would never admit defeat.


    Even if she didn‘t seed this time, there would always be a next time.


    As long as she was still alive, she would make life hell for them.


    Once Veronica returned to the table, she found Matthew to be aloof, so she sai down and began chattin


    g with Xavier,pletely ignoring the other man.


    What she didn‘t notice was Matthew‘s expression darkening.


    At that moment, Tiffany returned, sitting down opposite Matthew and keeping silent, all the while acting


    as if nothing had happened.


    After they were done eating, they paid, with Matthew footing the bill.


    Upon bidding the other two goodbye, Xavier and Veronica left.


    .


    Outside the restaurant, Xavier drove up to Veronica in his car. He then left the driver‘s seat to open the


    door for her.


    At that, Veronica couldn‘t helpughing. “Oh–


    Xavier. Surely you‘re too chivalrous,” she teased as she got into the car.


    After shutting the door, Xavier looked back at Matthew with a raise of


    the eyebrows, as if showing off, before getting back into the car and driving off.


    Although Tiffany was extremely jealous to discover that Matthew was watching the car leave, she didn‘t


    dare say as much. “Let‘s leave as well, Matthew.”


    In the afternoon, Veronica went back to work with Xavier, whereupon she took until 6 PM to familiarize


    herself with the workflow of thepany.


    Upon leaving the restaurant after they ate dinner together, he told her that he wanted to send her home


    .


    However, Veronica hailed a cab instead and waved goodbye to Xavier. “It‘s okay; I‘ll go back by myself


    and see you at work tomorrow. You‘ve been working very hardtely, so make sure to go home and


    get some rest!”


    “Alright, then. Goodnight.” He waved back.


    After she shut the car door, the cab slowly pulled away and headed off into the distance.


    Half an hourter, it stopped outside the Twilight Club, whereupon Veronica took the dedicated elevator


    up to Matthew‘s penthouse on the top floor.

    However, when she entered the penthouse, it was inky dark inside and nothing was visible.


    Thinking nothing of it, she moved to


    turn on the lights, but before she could touch the light switch, someone pulled her into their arms and pr


    essed her against the wall before leaning over her to kiss her.


    “Mmf–who are you?” she shouted, but the words came out mumbled as her mouth was blocked.


    The kiss was crazed and heated, and the person made use of the opportunity where she parted her lip


    s to speak. Her kisser pried open her mouth to suck on her tongue and savor the taste of her mouth.


    Even through the heavy scent of alcohol, Veronica could smell a familiar musk that immediately let her


    know it was Matthew..


    So, she shoved him away and shouted, “Are you crazy?” –


    After being shoved away, she heard him stagger for a bit before a loud thud echoed around the pentho


    use, much to her bewilderment.


    Immediately, Veronica turned on the lights, only to see him t on the ground.


    Startled, she paused. What on earth happened?


    Walking up to him and looking at him lying unmoving on the ground, she lifted a foot to kick him. “Hey.


    Wake up, Matthew. Wake up!”


    There was no response, even after the shout.


    Only then did she squat down and gently pat his cheek. “Are you okay? Wake up!”


    Yet, Matthew would not wake up. If anything, there was only the audible sound of his breathing


    Upon hearing that, Veronica pouted. “What the hell? Is he drunk? Why would he drink so much?” she a


    sked herself in exasperation.


    Having no other choice, she leaned down and threw his arm around her neck. Using all her strength, sh


    e helped him up before dragging him into the master bedroom and depositing him on the bed.


    However, because Matthew was too heavy, Veronica tumbled headfirst into the mattress as she was thr


    owing him down onto the bed. She sighed at that. “He‘s heavy. I‘m so tired!”


    Lying on the mattress, she exhaled deeply before sitting up and helping him remove his shoes. After tha


    However, before Veronica left the room, she grumbled to herself, “Why the f*ck would he drink so much


    She assumed Matthew must have mistaken her for Tiffany because of how much he drank.


    After all, he didn‘t dare touch her now that Elizabeth had explicitly ordered him not

    Upon leaving the master bedroom, Veronica went into the second bedroom to wash up and change her


    A few hourster, Matthew woke up from his sleep and went into the bathroom to wash up before chang


    The moment he opened the door, he found Veronica frantically clicking on theputer


    mouse, shouting, “Are you stupid? Why would youe all the way over here


    just to get killed? Do you even know what you‘re doing? Take the tower down, quick!”


    Currently, she was engrossed in gaming, but because the desk was right in the middle of the room, she

    As she spoke, she continued to y the game.


    Lifting his head to look at the clock on the wall, he asked in a low voice, “Why are you still awake?”


    It was already 2 AM, yet Veronica was still gaming.


    “Destroy it! Quick, now build it up. Yes! We won!”


    Only after she

    Matthew‘s eyes glittered and he nodded.“Mmhmm.”


    “Don‘t let me keep you, then.” She logged out of her gaming ount before giving him her seat. “Do you


    drunk?”


    Once again, his eyes shed and he pinched the bridge of his nose. “My head hurts.”
