Bumpkin's Rich Handsome Husband

After feeding her a few spoonful to quench her thirst, she lay on bed as she mused on the news, which

exposed the video.

“Let’s… get married in secret,” she suddenly proposed.

Matthew was taken aback by the sudden change in her attitude. His hand that was holding the cup

paused in midair while his eyes fixated upon her. It took him a moment before letting out a smile.

“That’s a great idea, but I want to let the world know that you’re my wife.”

How could he not know the reason behind her suggestion? Forget about the fact that it had only been

six months since his call-off engagement with Tiffany, it would cause a controversy despite having the

scandal handled and debunked. If they were to get married in secrecy, the outsiders would not point

fingers at the Kings Family at all.

“I…” Veronica blinked her bright eyes at him. “I don’t like a grand wedding. I want it to be simple, so it’s

fine for me. If you don’t want it, then let’s just forget it.”

“No. Let’s do as you say. We’ll register our wedding after you’ve recovered.” It was safer to get married

first regardless. He was afraid that Veronica would retrieve her words and he would definitely rue this

day for not agreeing to it.

“My phone is with Xavier. Could you tell Sean—”

“I’ve told him about it. You’re on leave now.”

“He must be angry since I’ve caused such a big trouble right after signing the contract with them.”

“It’s been settled. You’re in good hands.” Matthew pinched her cheek. “Take a good rest for the next

couple of days. I have something on this afternoon, but I’ll visit you after that.”

“Don’t mind me.” She nodded.

Knock! Knock! Knock!

A knock resounded on the door.

He put down the cup. “Have some rest. I’ll go take a look.”

“Hmm.”

He went out of the room and closed the door. There stood Thomas, who passed over the DNA test

results while whispering, “According to the test, Miss Murphy is not their daughter.”

Thomas was totally surprised by the outcome because if that was the case, Tiffany was not their

daughter too! Holding the paper, Matthew’s face dimmed.

As expected.

He returned the papers to Thomas. “Destroy it.”

“Copy, Young Master Matthew,” Thomas responded.

Matthew added, “Get some bodyguards—female, if possible—to look after Veronica 24/7. Even if it’s

the nurse, just keep an eye on anyone who enters the room.”

Now that his guess had hardened into conjecture, the unease in him grew stronger as though

something was amiss. He then returned to the room to accompany Veronica for a while before leaving

the hospital in a hurry.

Ever since Xavier had revealed the video, the Internet was rife with articles of Veronica. Despite

Matthew’s quick actions, a single news could be spread easily through the net in this era of

globalization. Not to mention, there was Conrad adding fuel to the fire behind the scenes by

heightening the controversy in its full swing.

In addition to Veronica’s identity as the Larson Family’s long-lost daughter and Elizabeth’s god-

granddaughter, the news received great attention.

The trending topics on Twitter and news headlines were hogged by Veronica, Xavier, Tiffany and the

Kings Family as the list went.

Initially, Matthew thought of placating the rage, but he chose to let it be in the end; he even tried to fuel

the controversy behind the scenes. Since there was already an existing player, he did not mind joining

the game.

At the same time, Tiffany was grounded in her room by the Larson couple.

Ever since the controversy came onto surface, Floch was flying the handle and slapped her in the face.

“Look at what you have done! Your mother and I didn’t want to see you act like a wh*re after pouring in

so much effort in taking care of you! Are you proud of yourself for sleeping with so many guys? You’re a

disgrace to the family!”

Instead of rage, she laughed in response. “How is that my fault? It’s all because of Veronica, that b*tch!

It’s her. It’s all because of her! She took away Matthew and how can I step into the Kings Family

without bearing their heir? Matthew just won’t touch me, so I have to find another man to be pregnant.

But… My life is ruined because of Matthew. He deprived me of my rights to be a mother.”

Tiffany sat onto the ground and wailed. “It’s all Veronica’s fault. She’s the reason for everything that has

happened, and I want revenge! It’s not only that video; I even disguised myself as her and slept with

another man. I’m going to reveal everything to let the world know that she’s a wh*re that sleeps with

every man she knows! Hahahaha…”

“Shut up, you fool!” Floch kicked her aggressively. “You’ve let us down. Look at yourself! How are you

going to win Veronica like this? Look at the mess you’re in!”

Disappointment and helplessness seeped into his acrimonious roar. No matter how much love and care

they showered her with, it was useless because she was meant to be Veronica’s sacrifice.
