Bumpkin’s Rich Handsome Husband novel Chapter 388

"Hah. Hahaha..."

Yvonne began to laugh. Her eyes were bloodshot and there was still a fiery red slap mark across her swollen cheek that glistened with tears.

Smiling bitterly, she seemed to be mocking her own ignorance and stupidity while expressing her heartache after finding out the truth.

The truth had stabbed her in the heart and left a gaping wound. It was so painful that her breath caught in her throat.

She clutched her chest and crumpled into a sobbing mess as she raised her hands to hide her weeping face.

Yvonne's heartbreaking cries brought out a surge of emotions in Veronica.

While she had not been in contact with Yvonne, she was still concerned for her.

Veronica's heart ached to see Yvonne crying like this, but she felt a glimmer of relief as well.

At least, it was not too late to turn around.

"Sob... Why? Why did it turn out like this? I'm so stupid! So stupid..." All of a sudden, Yvonne began slapping herself. "Serves me right! I asked for it! Sob..."

"That's enough!"

Veronica frowned and caught Yvonne's hand. "Are you trying to ruin your face? Why put yourself through all this just for a guy like Conrad? So what if you slept with him? Just chalk it down to bad luck. At least you've seen past his facade now, and it's not too late yet!"

"Sob..."

Yvonne's face was streaming with tears, and she trembled from all her sobbing. She turned her tearful gaze toward Veronica before reaching out to hug her. "I'm so sorry. I'm such a fool. I even misunderstood you back then. Sob..."

Veronica was a little unused to being hugged so fiercely by a woman, but she gently patted Yvonne on the back and said, "It's not too late to turn around. Everything will be fine. You can cry if you want. You'll feel better afterward."

Yvonne continued to wail her heart out.

After crying for some time, she noticed that the bodyguard had regained consciousness.

Yvonne sat up and asked Veronica, "How did you manage to sneak in with those people?"

"Actually, I contacted Matthew and asked him to help me think of a way to save you." Veronica had intended to come to the hotel herself to rescue Yvonne, but after giving it some more thought, she had to accept that she would be woefully outnumbered.

She had no other resources, so she had to ask Matthew for help.

Yvonne recalled what happened back at Kings Residence. Conrad had instigated her into assuming that Veronica was hiding her relationship with Matthew.

Therefore, Veronica's forthcoming attitude made Yvonne feel guilty.

"Are they Matthew's people?"

"Yeah. I think Matthew is a shareholder of this hospital."

"Oh. That's good."

Yvonne wiped her tears away once more before standing, then grabbed something from the side and began to hit the bodyguard.

"B*stard! You're the one who kidnapped me! I'm going to beat you up!"

She grabbed all the items she could use as a weapon in the ambulance and began to let out her anger on the bodyguard as she hit him relentlessly.

The bodyguard groaned in pain until he eventually became unconscious again. His head had begun to bleed.

Yvonne finally tossed her weapon aside and stumbled back to the seat beside Veronica. She was heaving like mad.

"I'm so stupid! I'm such a moron! "

Yvonne began lambasting herself again.

After taking all her anger out on someone else, she started going in on herself too.

Meanwhile, the ambulance cruised down the streets with the sirens on and took several abrupt turns. Soon enough, it managed to lose the car that had been tailing it.

When the ambulance stopped at a safe location, Veronica helped Yvonne out.

There was a familiar nondescript car parked on the side of the road which made Veronica feel rather unexpected.

Why is he here?

"Come with me." Veronica pulled Yvonne over to the car.

Once they were seated in the back seat, the car started up and drove off.

Matthew glanced at Veronica in the rearview mirror and asked with a gentle smile, "Everything okay?"
