Bumpkin’s Rich Handsome Husband novel Chapter 1004

"Okay." Veronica bobbed her head with a smile.

Sensing Crayson's thoughts from his uneasy stare, she then cupped Mateo's face with both hands and leaned over to plant a kiss on his forehead. "Mat, I've really missed you these days."

Instantly, a large smile bloomed on Crayson's face at the sight, his grin stretching from ear to ear as he happily turned to leave the ward.

Meanwhile, Mateo was dumbfounded throughout the entire process, as if still unused to Veronica's sudden affection toward him.

At the sight of Crayson closing the door, Veronica knew that with his kind of personality, he would certainly continue to listen in on their conversation.

Hence, she immersed herself completely in the conversation and said, "Mat, how did you get all these wounds? It hurts me to look at it. Don't worry, I'll never let that b*stard, Matthew, off easily. One day, I'll end his life with my own hands."

"He…"

Suddenly, Mateo felt a trace of sympathy for Matthew. Although he was Crayson's grandson, there were some things that Crayson did that he was unable to accept. However, due to his identity, he could not oppose his decisions either. As he heard Veronica's words that were full of 'hatred' toward Matthew, he wondered if she would be overwhelmed with grief when she 'recovered her memory' one day and remembered what she did to Matthew.

"The doctor said that your wounds are severe, so you should lie down and rest. I'll come over every day to visit you, okay?"

"Okay."

"It takes a hundred days to heal broken bones. Matthew really is a monster for being so harsh."

Mateo fell silent, not knowing how to reply.

"Mat, let's get married when you've fully recovered, okay?"

All of a sudden, Veronica was grateful that she had picked up acting in Bloomstead, and she was even more thankful that Sean had hired such a skilled teacher to personally teach her how to act. It was only because of this that she was able to prevent any cracks in her act from showing.
