Bumpkin’s Rich Handsome Husband novel Chapter 679

Adrian wasn't an ordinary man. If Wade got on the man's bad side, he would have to suffer the consequences.

Shirley wasn't expecting a man to stand up for Sasha. As she came back to her senses, she found the man standing imposingly before her having a unique temperament, unlike any normal person would.

Recalling Wade taking the other man head-on for her, Shirley was deeply touched. Her gaze landed on him, shining with a hint of respect and gratitude.

Adrian studied the mark on Veronica's face before he lowered his gaze to the woman in his embrace. "She indeed hit you, but not without a price. Besides, you even kicked her. Mrs. Kings, do you think you can bully my woman and walk away with it?"

"What do you think? Sasha deserves to be hit after kicking up a fuss at Young Master Matthew's funeral!" Nobody would ever know if Thomas was too deep into his act or if he was hating Sasha from the bottom of his heart. In any case, he looked like he was enraged as his cheeks flushed with anger. Then, he added, "Since you claim her as your woman, you should've taught her to behave. She better remember to never show her face around Mrs. Kings again."

As Thomas finished his warnings, he turned to Sasha. "Listen up, Sasha—even though Young Master Matthew is dead, he's Mrs. Kings' man. You have no right to confront her."

Veronica gaped at the domineering man as she began to see Thomas in a new light.

Adrian was aware of Sasha's reason to cause a scene, but being exposed in public was a humiliating experience. He suppressed the anger building up inside his chest and continued, "Even so, it didn't give you the excuse to hit her. Mrs. King, I want an explanation regarding the matter. You won't want to challenge me."

"Mr. Colland, you need to remember to respect the dead. Are you trying to cause trouble at my husband's memorial?"

Even though Veronica was shorter than Adrian, her courage didn't waver for a single moment when she stared right back at him, as if she was a heroine on the battlefield.

Casting a glance at the ice casket on the side, Adrian furrowed his brows. "I'll let this matter slip for once, as Matthew used to treat Sasha with care. There won't be a next, or else I'll make you pay."

"Allow me to thank you on my husband's behalf," Veronica replied.
