Bumpkin’s Rich Handsome Husband novel Chapter 1373

Because...

The instigator was his wife, Antheena, and the one who gave the order was his father-in-law, Flake. Ironically, his father-in-law gave the order right in front of him. Sadly, he, the catalyst of the situation, was powerless to stop it.

He stood on the bedroom balcony, smoking one cigarette after another, while the ground of the balcony was already littered with a small pile of cigarette butts and ash.

With worries weighing heavily on his heart, Xavier was deeply troubled. Initially, he resented Matthew because he indirectly caused the death of his sister, Melissa.

But now, seeing him under the pressure exerted by Flake, he should be happy, but he just couldn't bring himself to feel that way.

Only because... He was Veronica's husband! Metric Technology suffered a heavy blow, which could potentially be devastating.

Seeing Matthew in deep pain was a consolation for both the late Melissa and Xavier. However, every time Xavier thought of Veronica tossing and turning in her sleep, with a face full of worry, he felt a pang of guilt and self-blame, and even more so, a sense of indebtedness to her.

A marriage like the one with Antheena had no meaning. Xavier sighed, feeling that some things should be addressed. It was time for him to propose a divorce to Antheena.

But just at this moment, the phone in Xavier's pocket rang once. However, before he could answer, everything returned to silence.

Taking out his phone, there was a missed call on the screen. It was from Veronica.

Below was a friendly reminder 'ring once.' The phone only rang once and then hung up. Why?

Holding the phone, Xavier thought for a moment and roughly understood Veronica's mood. He didn't call back.

Veronica sat in the lounge and made a call to Xavier but then felt it was inappropriate. Everything started because of her, and Xavier was quite passive in this matter.

That day in the hotel, she saw Antheena with two male models, living a very comfortable life.
