Bumpkin’s Rich Handsome Husband novel Chapter 510

"Anything on your mind?" questioned Hendrey as he gazed at Veronica.

She came back to her senses. "Oh, nothing. I was just wondering who would dare to intrude Princess Antheena's territory. He must have a death wish."

Everyone knew who that person was.

And now, she was more certain than ever about one thing—Xavier took her to the attic to tell her that her little secret was discovered. It was also a warning that whoever intruded the castle could never escape.

Last night, Thomas sent out a rescue team upon receiving her message. However, that voice did not belong to Matthew nor Thomas. Then, who could it be? They won't make such a big fuss over a small fry, though.

"Who else? Of course it's Matthew's confidant, Troy," Xavier responded.

It was not until then did Veronica realize that the familiar voice belonged to Thomas' elder brother— Troy! He came to save Matthew under Thomas' arrangement, but he fell into a trap.

"Oh, is it?" She was on tenterhooks as she forced a smile. "Foolish. He can't even save Matthew out of here. Useless."

"I know right. He's so useless, but we should make the best use out of him. It should be his honor to have the chance to entertain me," said Antheena while looking at her cards. "Let me see which one I should place forward. This one. Six of Clubs."

"My little princess is getting better at this, huh?" Hendrey flashed her a smile that was so gentle it felt like he was a loving brother. His gaze always alternated between Antheena and Xavier. He seldom looked at Veronica.

Unsurprisingly, Antheena won the

round again.

"Lucky me.” She laughed while motioning the bodyguard to come over.

He approached her with the lottery box, and she took another ball before tossing it to another bodyguard.

The bodyguard took a glimpse at the number. "It's eleven, Young Mistress."

Following that, he relayed the message through the walkie-talkie. "Eleven."

The shriek echoed throughout the basement, drowning the sound of shuffling cards and sending chills to whoever had heard it.

"This is so fun!" Antheena clapped her hands in joy.
