Bumpkin’s Rich Handsome Husband novel Chapter 638

After a few days of not seeing her, she had lost her charm, and her fair cheeks became even more heartbreakingly sallow, while her beautiful and clear eyes had turned into a dusty pearl, dull and colorless.

Crayson felt heartbroken and stepped forward, wanting to soothe her, but he wasn't able to form the right words in his head.

"All right, you should get some rest. I'll go and rest for a while too."

In the end, he never mustered enough courage to face Veronica, and nodded to Destiny as a greeting before he turned to leave.

"Go and see Master Crayson off. I want to rest for a bit." Veronica told Destiny to leave as she wanted to be alone for a while.

As she lay on the bed, her mind was filled with images of Matthew. From his knitted brows to his smile and his gentle, magnetic voice that rang in her ears, they all kept lingering in her mind.

Bzzt…

The phone on the table rang. When she picked it up, she saw that it was a call from Elizabeth. The words 'Madam Elizabeth' hit her hard at the weakest spot in her heart, and the sudden pain spread to all of her limbs, and each of her pores seeped with pain. Veronica held the phone in one hand and covered her face with the other, closing her eyes in near despair.

As her phone buzzed and vibrated, she eventually chose to answer the call.

"Hello, Grandma?" She regulated her voice, reverting to her usual playful state in an attempt not to let Elizabeth catch on.
