Bumpkin’s Rich Handsome Husband novel Chapter 498

"How can it be?" Veronica was in absolute shock. "When was this?"

"After Hendrey went to Castron, I looked for him for a long time and couldn't get in touch with him. So, I kept dispatching people to investigate. Finally, just a while ago, I received news that he was kidnapped, but I'm not sure who kidnapped him and where he is right now."

Perhaps because she was really worried about Hendrey's whereabouts, Ruka sounded anxious through the phone.

"Okay, I got it. I'll get in touch with you later."

Veronica hung up the phone. Then, she looked up only to realize that Matthew had already made his way toward the elevator.

She put away her phone and rushed over at once. Unfortunately, Thomas grabbed her as soon as she took a step. "Miss Murphy, Young Master Matthew has given orders that you're not allowed up."

"Hold it right there, Matthew!"

Yvonne rushed toward Matthew frantically when she saw that Veronica was being held back.

Ding!

Coincidentally, the door of the elevator opened. Matthew entered the elevator first, followed by Yvonne.

He glanced at Yvonne and pressed the 'close' button.

At this rate, Yvonne couldn't care less about other things. She grabbed Matthew's suit and shouted, "Give me back my son! Give me back my son... "

Panic crept in, and the words in her sentence turned into wails as she burst into tears.

The man raised his eyebrows slightly as he looked at the scene unfolding before him. There was a hint of displeasure in his eyes. "Was Conrad the one who asked you to come?"

"Huh?"

Yvonne was stunned. She looked up at the man in front of her dazedly. "You

How does he know that Conrad and I are back together? Did Veronica tell him?No, that can't be. Veronica still doesn't know I got back together with Conrad.

"Stop talking nonsense with me. I want my child!" she roared in anger again.

"Why don't you check the authenticity of his terminal illness rather than wasting your time here seeking trouble with me?"

After Matthew finished speaking, the elevator dinged again as they reached his floor. Thus, when the elevator door opened, he walked straight out.

Only a stupefied Yvonne was left in the elevator. Matthew's words from earlier echoed in her mind. Why don't you check the authenticity of his terminal illness rather than wasting your time here seeking trouble with me?How did he know that Conrad was diagnosed with cancer?

And what does he mean by asking me to investigate the authenticity of Conrad's cancer? Could it be that... Is Conrad faking his illness?

Yvonne was lost in her thoughts.

When she snapped back to her senses, the elevator had already arrived on the first floor.

The door opened, and she saw Thomas and Veronica standing by the elevator door.

Veronica had keen observational skills, so she immediately noticed that there was something wrong with Yvonne's facial expression. Hence, she inquired with concern, "Is something the matter, Yvonne?"

"Huh? N-Nothing."

Yvonne shook her head absentmindedly. "I-l'm feeling a little unwell. I want to go back and rest."

Matthew's words undoubtedly left a severe impact on Yvonne. At this moment, she was dubious about Conrad's terminal illness.

However, Yvonne had no way to determine the authenticity of the matter because of the ill relationship between Matthew and Conrad. Hence, she could only investigate it by herself.

"You're not feeling well?" Veronica noticed something odd with Yvonne's behavior. So, she stood beside her and asked in a low voice, "What’s the matter? What did Matthew say to you?"

"N-Nothing."

Once again, Yvonne shook her head. "He said that he would return the child to me in a few days and asked me to wait for another two days. Roni, I'm going back first. Thank you for helping me with today's affair."

Before Veronica could reply, Yvonne had already left the building.

Veronica stood on the spot and watched her retreating figure. For some reason, she could feel that Yvonne was preoccupied with something, yet she didn't know the cause of it.

Therefore, she turned her head and glanced in the direction of the elevator. She couldn't help but think of what Matthew could possibly say to Yvonne.

Buzz—

Just as she was deep in her thoughts, her phone rang again.

She fished out her phone from her pocket and glanced at the screen, and she saw it was Ruka calling her again.
