Bumpkin’s Rich Handsome Husband novel Chapter 6

Tiffany didn’t expect Veronica to react so quickly. Before she could do anything, the latter had slapped her twice across the face, making her ears buzz. She was angry and exasperated, but she couldn’t make a scene with Veronica here. “Shut your mouth! Who are you calling ‘sis’?” she replied under her breath while enduring the pain in her cheek. “But luckily, you were clever enough to not speak out and refute me just now. Otherwise, you may as well just prepare coffins for your adoptive parents.” She had thought that Veronica would step forward and spill the beans just now. She had even come up with a solution for that, but who would’ve thought that Veronica would be so calm and collected? As a result, Tiffany was astonished.

“Ha!” Veronica’s lips curled slightly. “When I saved Young Master Matthew, he had promised me a reward of 100 million. I’ll give you a 50-percent discount, so you have to pay me 50 million to keep my mouth shut. Otherwise, when Young Master Matthew learns about the truth, as your full sister, not only do I have to prepare a coffin for you, but I’m afraid I’ll also have to visit your grave every year!” “F-Fifty million, you say? Dream on!”

“Whether I’m dreaming is my own business, but if you don’t do as I say, I’ll definitely make sure that your dream of becoming Matthew Kings’ wife becomes a pipe dream.”

Tiffany was rendered speechless with anger by Veronica’s angry retort.

Meanwhile, in the inner room, Elizabeth explained to Matthew what had happened the night before. She said, “I saw Veronica’s blood on the bed sheet. She was a virgin. Now that you’ve slept with her, you have to take responsibility for that!”

Matthew had thought it was Veronica who had drugged him, which was why she followed him into the elevator with an ulterior motive. Even though he now learned that Elizabeth was the one who had drugged him, he couldn’t deny that Veronica had designs on him. “I already have a girlfriend. As for Veronica, we can offer her a compensation payment.” I heard that woman saying last night that she was only after my money. Since that’s the case, I’ll grant

her wish.

“Hmph! Do you think I’m old and blind? Don’t think I couldn’t tell that she’s only here to make up the numbers for you.”

Upon hearing Elizabeth’s words, Matthew felt quite a headache. “What can I do for you to believe me, Grandma?”

Elizabeth came up with a last resort. “Just wait. Two months later, you’ll marry whoever gets pregnant first.”

Matthew was speechless. Is she so hasty that she’s not gonna ask for my opinion anymore ?

“Don’t look at me like that. Feelings can be developed, no?” Elizabeth said, before wondering if Matthew disliked Veronica because the latter looked ugly. She continued, “You shouldn’t be taking things at face value. That young lady looked less than average, but that’ll save you a lot of trouble. Don’t they say that beauty often causes trouble? Just leave with Tiffany first. Veronica will be staying here for the next few days.” She was worried that Matthew might force Veronica to take the morning-after pill, which was why she had to make Veronica stay here for three full days to rest her heart. After all, morning-after pills would only work if they were taken within 72 hours of sexual intercourse. It’d be useless to take them more than three days after the intercourse.

The instant he heard Elizabeth’s words, Matthew’s good-looking face turned somewhat chilly; he turned around and stepped out of the inner room.
