Bumpkin’s Rich Handsome Husband novel Chapter 504

Xavier, who was curious as well, told her upfront that it was not his intention to kidnap her. "You. What other secrets do you have?"

"Secrets?"

Feeling her brain go blank, Veronica was momentarily stunned.

She had no secrets to speak of. In fact, for a period of time, even Veronica was doubting herself that she was the root of the problem. Up until now, she could not come up with a head start.

However, it was Xavier's question that enlightened her.

It was Crayson's sudden appearance that led her to think something was off, especially when he had been growing increasingly strict on her training lately.

Under normal circumstances, a woman in her twenties—like Veronica —could defend herself adequately with the skills she possessed, so it made more sense that she did not need to polish her techniques further. Furthermore, when Hendrey left Bloomstead, he gave her a bracelet, stating that it could save her in case of an emergency.

The last time she was riding the same car as Steven and Larry, Steven's expression was very strange upon laying eyes on the bracelet.

There must be some secret in all this, but Steven did not say anything.

Besides, Tiffany's death was also not caused by Matthew, which made her death even more so mysterious.

The weider thing was that after Tiffany's 'death', Randy went missing with Floch and Rachel without looking further into their daughter's death. Instead, they sold the company and moved to Castron.

Now that Tiffany is still alive, what does this all say?

Veronica, who felt that nothing was out of place before, could clearly detect that something was awry in retrospect and that she might be harboring a secret which she had yet to discover.

But, if I'm keeping some sort of secret, then...

Crayson did mention that Matthew broke up with her because Zac and Conrad were targeting him, so he did not wish to implicate her as well. In hindsight, those words might be false as well.

So, what is the real reason that Matthew broke up with me?

She remembered that when Thomas saw her, he did ask why she was willing to help Matthew. From that, she could tell that Thomas knew something behind the scenes.
