Bumpkins Rich Handsome Husband Chapter 575
Chapter 575 Bullied
Abby, who was lying in on the bed, had just heard Caleb’s voice. However, she was not surprised to
see him showing up here. She used signnguage and gestured, ‘I…’
“Let’s talk about it after your drip.” Caleb motioned for her to lie down peacefully by cing her raised
hand back onto the bed. It could result in a backflow of blood if she was to sign during her drip.
The pale girl nodded without expressing anything as she bit her lower lip cautiously, not daring to look
Caleb in the eyes. He sat next to the bed and fiddled with his phone before making another call. He
could only remain silent since there was no verbalmunication. Furthermore, they were the only
ones in the ward, making the atmosphere awkward.
After more than an hour, Abby was finally done with the nutrition therapy and the nurse left after
removing the needle. “Tell me what happened,” he demanded coldly.
Despite the fact that he was not interrogating prisoners, the cold aura, navy blue police uniform, and
the unspoken sense of oppression made Abby nervous to the point of suffocation.
‘It’s nothing,’ she signed while shaking her head. “The doctor says you passed out from not eating.” He
noticed herplexion was haggard and sallow from the moment he walked in, and she had lost a
significant amount of weight.
“I send you money on a regr basis and it covers living expenses. Shouldn’t you exin yourself? I
should have asked you thest time I saw you.” At the mention of the incidentst time, Caleb seemed
to be saying, ‘You’d better give me a reasonable reason.’
However, Abby kept her eyes closed and bat an eye at him. In the dead silent ward, she lifted her hand
and repeated her gesture. ‘I’m perfectly fine.’
“Please don’t test my pa—” Caleb was usually cold and stern, but he was afraid of frightening her
halfway through his words.
He rose and sat next to the hospital bed while softly saying, “I am your guardian and I require
information about your situation. After all, I’m a cop and your… brother. You must not withhold anything
from me.”
Hearing that, Abby pursed her lips and raised her eyes before mustering the courage to look him in the
eyes. However, she paused once more and remained speechless.
“Don’t underestimate my abilities as a cop.”
He was implying that he could figure things out even if Abby did not let on a single word to him.
‘Actually… It’s just… I want to save money and repay you as soon as possible.’ Abby made up a
ridiculous reason.
“Abby!” Her lies infuriated Caleb.
Frightened, Abby quickly sat up and gestured before her heart pounded even harder. ‘I’ll go to the
restroom first.’

She rose to her feet and went to the restroom after wearing her shoes.
“Phew…” Caleb sighed deeply before reaching out to helplessly pat the bedside.
He was frowning when he caught sight of Abby’s phone on the bedside table. Picking up the phone, he
noticed that it required a password to unlock. However, he happened to catch a glimpse of her
password a while ago, so he was able to unlock it right away.
He went through her call logs and text messages, only to find nothing unusual. Soon, a list of contacts
appeared when he opened WhatsApp. The fourth avatar in that list of recent contacts was a red clown
icon with the nickname ‘The Devil’.
Caleb was drawn in by the nickname, so he clicked into the chat…
The Devil wrote, ‘It’s time to hand in the money, Naruto.’
Dated September 1st.
It was the twelfth of September today, so the conversation was dated eleven days ago.
The Devil texted, ‘Damn it. Why aren’t you handing over the cash? Meet me at the school entrance
tonight. Don’t even think about trying to flee!’
Dated September 4th.
The Devil wrote again, ‘F*ck you, Naruto. I’m going to kill you today.’
Abby replied, ‘I’m really sorry… I’m really out of money now.’
The Devil threatened, ‘If you can’t get me 3,000 today, I’ll upload all of your photos to the campus
forum.’
