Bumpkin’s Rich Handsome Husband novel Chapter 299

Veronica's dead phone was fully charged and ready to use after she packed everything.

She turned on her phone while sitting on the sofa and saw that she had received numerous messages, and the phone was continuously buzzing and vibrating.

However, she ignored the messages and went straight to the news.

’Encounters Bridal Store smashed due to yesterday's incident’; ’Encounters Bridal Store was smashed and staff were injured'; and 'Encounters Bridal Store is in trouble. Kingses stated they will not interfere'...

Veronica frowned even more after casually scrolling through some news.

Conrad stopped her from going to the wedding store at the time. She simply assumed that there would be reporters blocking the store's entrance.

However, it appeared that things were even more serious than she anticipated.

At this point, her phone vibrated once more.

When she looked down, it was a call from Shirley.

"Shirley, how’s the store's condition now?" She asked as soon as she answered the phone.

"Oh, Ron, you finally picked up the phone. There was a mishap. Monica was injured this morning during the chaos, and her amniotic fluid ruptured, so she was rushed to the hospital. Fortunately, she gave birth to her child safely. Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable."

Monica was a wedding planner who had been hired temporarily by Encounters Bridal Store. She was pregnant and was about to give birth, but she had no idea there would be such an incident.

Veronica was full of mixed emotions; she felt gloomy and depressed.

She couldn't help but sigh, knowing she should have asked Master Crayson to come to Bloomstead sooner.

Outsiders could not enter Encounters Bridal Store if he was present, and this kind of incident wouldn't have happened.

"Has anyone else been hurt?"

"Yeah, Jonas, Luna, and Claude were hurt as well. Moreover, all of our previous customers canceled their orders last afternoon and this morning, and they were asking for refunds."

Shirley briefly explained everything to Veronica on the other end of the phone.

Hearing that, Veronica raised her hand and rubbed her temple. She was stressed out.

"Allow all the staff to leave as safety is critical. After that, call the cops." "I called, but only two or three cops came, and it was impossible to maintain order at all."

Shirley replied emotionally.

Through the phone, Veronica could hear the noisy background on the other end of the line.

"Listen to me. Evacuate everyone. Lives are way more important than the equipment," Veronica said immediately before hanging up the phone.

Then, she left with a backpack.

She didn't go anywhere but headed to Encounters Bridal Store by foot.

When she arrived at the store, she discovered that the door had been violently demolished, and a large crowd had gathered at the entrance to cause trouble.

Veronica approached the crowd, looked at the group of troublemakers, and patted one of them on the shoulder, saying, "Excuse me, what happened here?”

She was dressed as a man and spoke in a man's voice so that she could not be recognized.

"What else would it be? A bride and groom were injured in the store, and the person in charge has yet to come forward. Thus, the Leonards ordered us to destroy the store."

While waving his fist, a man shouted, "Compensate! Compensate! We'll smash everything in your store if you don't compensate."

Veronica remained unconcerned and then inquired, "Hey bro, how much are you paid per day? Can I join? I'm an electrician, and I don't make a lot of money every day. This can be my side hustle.”
