Bumpkin’s Rich Handsome Husband novel Chapter 524

"The awful idea of breaking up earlier was because I wasn't sensible," said Matthew as he softly patted the back of Veronica's hand around his waist. "We'll be married once we return since you already know the truth."

How would he not know what she was thinking?

"Why the rush? Don't you have your own business to take care of?"

"I know that Zac and Conrad have been making things difficult for you," Veronica said grimly. "You should concentrate on your work for now."

"It's indeed incredibly burdensome. But..."

Matthew stopped abruptly and looked down at Veronica. "The most challenging issue is Conrad."

"Zac is the prince of the royal family of Castron. His status is noble and powerful. So I can see why you may think he’s challenging. But Conrad?"

Veronica was quite confused.

"Yvonne is the one you need to question about this," Matthew said.

Veronica, who was incredibly intelligent, realized what Matthew meant immediately. She released his hand and gasped in shock. "You mean they got back together?”

"If they reignited their love, it wouldn’t be that frightening."

"But things are much more insidious than you think..." he muttered hopelessly as he moved the chair aside and sat down.

Matthew didn't complete his sentence as he couldn't seem to find a suitable way to put it.

It was more like... it was so disgusting he didn't know how to put it into words.

"Oh, just tell me. Stop beating around the bush."

Veronica was deeply concerned about Yvonne's issues since she thought of her as a close friend.

She was well aware that Matthew was a person who usually went straight to the point. So, whenever he hesitated, it usually meant that things had gone to hell in a basket.

What unimaginable thing could happen between Conrad and Yvonne?

She racked her brains but couldn't figure it out.

"It all began when Zac knew that Yvonne was pregnant, kidnapped her, and when you went to rescue her."

"Go on."

"After you freed Yvonne from Zac, Yvonne contacted him and slandered Conrad. She said that she became pregnant because he raped her. Therefore, Conrad had deliberately approached Yvonne, intending to get his revenge and find his child."

Matthew told her every single detail of the incident.

He saw Veronica's pallid look when he had finished speaking, and he continued to explain, "When you and Yvonne went to Spinfluence Group the other day to look for me, I informed Yvonne about it. It's unfortunate that she's so utterly blinded by love that she didn't trust me."

Everything was the result of Yvonne's lack of intelligence.

He always had proof behind his words, but Yvonne chose to trust Conrad.

Bang’

Veronica's face turned red with anger, and she slammed the table. "Conrad, that sc*m, actually did such a thing to Yvonne! And Yvonne, is she an idiot?"

She could feel her mind spinning with fury as her chest heaved while she tried her best to restrain herself from losing her temper. But doing so was arduous, so her not-so-ironclad control over her emotions slipped through.

"No, I’d better call her. What if Conrad finds someone to do such a thing to Yvonne again?!"

Once bitten twice shy, and yet Yvonne was enough of a fool that she didn't even sense the danger.

"Are you sure it's a wise choice to tell Yvonne now?"

Matthew was well aware that Veronica was worried about Yvonne, so he didn't immediately reject the suggestion. Instead, he reminded, "Yvonne is not as smart as you, nor as rational as you."

The implication behind his word was that after telling Yvonne, she would definitely impulsively confront Conrad, and her ending would be far from happy.

"So, what should we do now?" "Book a return trip for tonight, and we'll talk about other things when we return to our country."

Veronica had no other choice but to follow Matthew's arrangement. She nodded but still couldn't hold in her rage. "How can there be someone as malicious as Conrad in the world? He deserves to be put to death!"

Ring-

Matthew's mobile phone rang at this very time.

After he swept his gaze over the number, he took the call and said, "Well, I see."
