Bumpkin's Rich Handsome Husband

Ruka continued to huff from the other end of the call. “I asked you to go find Hendrey with me, and you

actually abandoned me and went home yourself!”

“Hehe, I didn’t have a choice. Speaking of Hendrey, have you found him?” Veronica acted all innocent.

She didn’t want Ruka to know too much about her relationship with Hendrey. The more Ruka knew, the

worse it would be for her.

“I didn’t see him, but I heard he is fine.”

“That is good news. Are you free today? Do you want to go shopping?”

“Sure! When are we going?”

“I will go to you in a while.” Veronica proceeded to tell Ruka what time she would be there.

She had no choice but to ask Ruka out to go shopping together.

Now that they were together and Matthew was aware that Veronica would be leaving soon for hardcore

training that would last half a year, Matthew tried his best to spend as much precious time with her.

On the other hand, she only wanted to get rid of him so that she could get a pregnancy test from a

pharmacy and test if she was pregnant.

She honestly didn’t know what other excuse she could come up with, if not shopping.

After half an hour, Veronica successfully left Matthew as she drove to Luka’s.

As she was passing by a pharmacy, she stopped the car to buy a pregnancy test. She went as far as to

buy five different brands, out of fear that one of them would be inaccurate. After that, she ran to a

nearby public restroom, and did the test with all five sticks.

Her heart immediately dropped when she looked at all the two-line test results after five minutes.

Feeling uneasy, Veronica swiftly called Ruka and came up with a reason to suddenly not go.

She then quickly drove to the hospital, registered, and did an ultrasound.

After an hour-long wait, she finally got the ultrasound results, and was sitting in front of the gynecologist

when the doctor cheered after reading the report.

“Oh my, you are such a lucky young lady. You are pregnant with twins!”

As a gynecologist, the doctor understood the joy of having twins, as not everyone could conceive twins.

However, Veronica didn’t want children now.

She had considered keeping the child if she turned out to be pregnant. After all, she had had an

abortion before. Going through it again would be unfair for the child as it would be irresponsible to

herself.

Receiving the unexpected ultrasound test result of her having twins, however, made her feel like the

sky had fallen.

“Ma’am, have you decided which hospital you want to give birth in? If it is in our hospital, you can open

a file first, and then come for an obstetric checkup.”

The doctor carefully looked at the examination report and continued, “The children’s condition is

normal, but you must pay attention because they are twins. What about your husband? Did he not

come with you for the examination?”

“Ha! He doesn’t know yet. Thank you, doctor. I will discuss it with my husband at home.”

Veronica got up, took the examination report from the doctor, and walked out of the obstetrics and

gynecology department.

Standing in the hall on the third floor, she looked down at the report in her hand, and froze for a second

before she threw it into the trash can.

“Roni?”

Someone suddenly called out from behind.

The shell-shocked Veronica was so preoccupied with the sudden news that she didn’t hear the voice at

all, and she went into the elevator that brought her downstairs.

By the time Skyler, who was strolling along from the end of the corridor, ran to the spot where Veronica

stood, he realized that the elevator had already gone downstairs.

“Did I get the wrong person?” he asked himself, confused.

As he wondered about that, his gaze drifted and happened to land on the report in the trash can.

Half of the report was peeking out from the can as it wasn’t properly dumped. Skyler then picked it up

and took a look at it, only to be surprised when he saw the unmistakable words written on it—Veronica

Murphy.

His face further fell after he swept through the content of the report. “Holy moly! Twins? Hell… Who is

the father?”

Didn’t Roni and Matt break up? Did she cheat on him already?

No. That is not it.

Roni even called to ask about Matt a few days ago. It is unlikely she cheated.

He finally wondered, Could the children be Matt’s?

A nurse came running toward him in the middle of his musings.

“Dr. Robins? Dr. Robins! Why did you come here?”

He slipped the ultrasound result into his folder. “What is the matter?” he asked, to which she answered,

“The doctor wants to see you.”

Hearing that, he nodded and left with the nurse.

Veronica had left the hospital and had driven to a park where she sat alone and spaced out.

Matthew didn’t call her either, as he didn’t want Ruka to find out about their relationship after Veronica

told him that she would be spending time with Ruka.

At the same time, Matthew had taken some time out to busy himself with arranging official documents

in his office when he received a call from Skyler. “Matt, where are you?” Skyler asked as soon as the

call went through.

“The company.”

“Aye. Wait for me. I am on my way to you.”

After saying that, Skyler didn’t give Matthew any chance to speak and immediately ended the call.

Meanwhile, Matthew didn’t give it much thought as he put his phone aside and continued to work.

After half an hour, Skyler barged into the president’s office like a tornado and, when he stood in front of

Matthew, hit the table as he gushed, “Matt, something big has happened!”
