Bumpkin’s Rich Handsome Husband novel Chapter 54

However, when Veronica called Xavier, no one answered the call.

Therefore, she could only text him instead: ‘Xavier, I’m Veronica. If anything happens to me, help my parents to claim my accident insurance and send them away from here.’

After typing the message, she sent it off to him.

Then, she typed something on the phone again and handed it back to the man next to her. “Thank you.”

“Haha, it’s alright.”

The man took his phone and left.

However, after waiting for him to leave, several men standing in the hospital lobby directly approached her.

Immediately, Veronica screamed, “Help! Help—um...”

Just as she was about to run off, a few

‘doctors’ in white coats grabbed hold of her and covered her mouth. “Why are you running away again?”

The ‘attending doctor’ stood beside and waved his hand to a few people next to him. “Hurry up and send her to the asylum. We can’t afford to let her hurt anyone.”

“ Sob.” Ignoring the burn on the back of her feet, Veronica continued to struggle and kicked the man beside her before screaming at the onlookers, “Help me! Help me! Call the police, please.”

“Stop being useless and quickly grab her!” Seeing that Veronica was struggling with force, the ‘attending doctor’ ordered, “You over there, carry her back here.”

Then, four strong men in white coats pressed Veronica onto the ground before carrying her away on her limbs and covering her mouth.

When the surrounding crowd saw the scene, they started discussing.

“That person looks pretty normal to me.”

“Is this some kind of kidnapping?”

“I’ve never seen her before.” “Which hospital are you from?”

Facing the crowd’s questioning, the ‘attending doctor’ took out his ‘medical proof’. “She is our hospital’s mental patient. This is her second time trying to escape from the hospital. The last time she escaped, she even stabbed someone.”

“Oh my, that’s scary!”

“We should keep our distance from her.”

“Who said she’s not mentally ill?”

“This is terrifying. What’s wrong with your hospital? Can’t you even look after one mental patient?”

Since they were worried that they would be stabbed by the ‘mentally ill’ patient, the onlookers all took a step back.

As they tried to avoid Veronica, they had even less doubt about the ‘truth’ of the

matter.

Meanwhile, Veronica struggled as she was carried into a car owned by the asylum not far away. The car drove off after the door was slammed shut.

At the same time, in the inpatient department building, Tiffany was standing beside the window to witness everything that happened below.

Her red lips curled upward to form the prettiest smile on her gorgeous face. Veronica, you’re intelligent, but you are no match against my dad. From now on, you’ll be spending the rest of your life in the asylum. You’ll be there forever... Forever!

What she said to Veronica earlier was half the truth.

Although it was true that her adoptive parents had been kidnapped, she had tricked Veronica into leaving so that the people downstairs could take her away. Now that she’s in the asylum... She will forever be a mental patient!

“Why are you here? And where is Veronica?”

Suddenly, a voice appeared from the back.

The familiar voice made her shiver as she looked back and saw Matthew standing by the staircase looking down at her from above.

“Matthew, I’m on a call with my friend.” She calmly waved her phone before furrowing her brows. “What did you say? Veronica? Wasn’t she in her ward earlier? She told me that she wanted some breakfast, so I asked the bodyguard to buy it for her.”
