Bumpkin’s Rich Handsome Husband novel Chapter 187

Seeing as Xavier's face flushed with anger and the blue veins on his forehead were about to pop, Melissa shuddered with terror. "X-Xavier, why are you looking at me like that? I-I'm scared!" She sobbed, and her tears started raining down her cheeks nonstop.

Feeling his anger rush straight to his head, Xavier raised his hand and gave a slap on Melissa's face. "Oh, so now you know to feel terrified for your life ? Don't you know that what you did is equivalent to seeking death!?"

Then, Xavier grabbed Melissa by the collar. With a ferocious look on his face, he scolded her, "That's Matthew Kings! Even if he doesn't love Tiffany, he'd never allow anyone to create chaos at his wedding. Not to mention, the one that you'd laid hands on was his fiancee!"

It was all in fate's hand. Initially, Xavier thought that someone schemed against Veronica in regards to this matter. However, he never expected that the mastermind was actually Melissa.

Seized by uncontrollable fury, Xavier slammed his fist on his car's steering wheel. His enraged look was immensely terrifying as he looked like a raging lion that would devour Melissa at any time.

After adjusting his emotions for a while, Xavier calmed down. He raised his hand and rubbed his temples. Then, he looked over at Melissa. Her eyes were red from crying, and he felt bad for her in every possible way.

Raising his hand, Xavier caressed Melissa's red cheek. "Are you alright? Sorry, I was acting a little too reckless just now."

It was probably better for Xavier to keep his mouth shut because the moment he opened his mouth to console Melissa, she cried even harder. She plunged into Xavier's arms and hugged him tightly. "Xavier, I'm scared... Will they kill me? Sob.."

Seeing this, Xavier hugged Melissa and patted her on the back. Then, he sighed. "You're really an idiot. Old Mrs. Kings has always dreamed of having a grandchild. Judging from that, anyone can see that the Kings Family put great importance on the child Tiffany conceived. You're simply asking for death!"

Still sobbing, Melissa said, "I-I love Matthew. I just didn't want Tiffany to be married to him. I didn’t think so much..."

The single-minded Melissa confidently deemed that the Crawfords had a foothold in Bloomstead. In her mind, even if Matthew found out it was her who had killed the child borne by Tiffany, he would not do anything to her.

However, the current situation was that the content of the video was Tiffany being assaulted, and it even got broadcasted openly for everyone to watch at the wedding.

All the guests and friends invited to the wedding banquet today were renowned businessmen and celebrities. If someone had not stopped the video in time, the scene of Tiffany being assaulted would have been broadcasted directly to all these upper-class socialites to see, and the Kings Family would have lost all their dignity and honor.

Fortunately, the wedding was held in a very private manner, and no entertainment reporters were allowed to participate. Other-wise, the blow suffered by the Kings Family would have been unimaginable.

Even so, if Matthew found out about Melissa's doings, he would probably think that the Crawfords wanted to take this opportunity to inflict revenge on the Kings Family out of anger and make them a laughing stock. This would cause their company's stock market to decline, which could lead to immeasurable consequences.

If there were any news reporters who sneaked into the wedding scene today and exposed the news to the public, quite frankly, they could spin it and say the Crawfords were trying to bring down the Kings Family!

"Matthew will definitely watch the whole video and find out the truth sooner or later. What you need to do now is to find those people immediately," Xavier said.

Listening to his words, Melissa stood up straight. She nodded her head while wiping her tears off with a tissue. "Yeah, Xavier. W-We finally agree on something," said Melissa, sobbing and sniffling. Her shoulders huddled from time to time.

"Hmm... you're not as stupid as I thought.” Xavier nodded, feeling relieved. Then, he said solemnly, "After you have found those men, hand them over to me. I'll immediately buy you a plane ticket to go abroad so you can lay low before this matter is solved." "Thanks, Xavier. But, you don't have to deal with them anymore. I have already dealt with them." "You've dealt with them... What did you say?" Xavier was dumbfounded after he heard that.

"I've obliterated the evidence, because only if they're dead, then no one will know nor suspect it was I who had committed the crime. I had sent someone to make the person who secretly sneaked into the wedding banquet to broadcast the video and the few people who had assaulted Tiffany vanish from the surface of the Earth."

Shortly after those words escaped from her lips, Melissa had a smug smile on her tearful face.

As she kept smiling, Melissa soon realized there was something wrong with Xavier's facial expression, and the smile on her face converged inch by inch. Then, her facial expression gradually became stiff.

"X-Xavier, w-what's wrong?"

"Are you a freaking moron? You're asking me what's wrong? "

Xavier only felt that his head was congested with anger. He grabbed Melissa's shirt and raised his hand again, wanting to slap her back to her senses. However, he held back when his hand was 10 centimeters away from her cheek.

Clenching all his five fingers into a fist, Xavier smashed on the center console, and instantly, a pit appeared on it.

Melissa had never seen Xavier in such a furious state before.
