Bumpkin’s Rich Handsome Husband novel Chapter 788

Today's events would have become even more complicated if Veronica hadn't been fine.

Meanwhile, Veronica and Matthew sat in the car and drove down the mountain. She handed a wet handkerchief to him and said, "Matt, find a way to do a drug test on this."

"What's wrong?" Matthew's expression turned cold, as if he realized something but still needed further clarification.

She slumped against the passenger seat and closed her eyes to rest, but she could feel her heart in her throat as she recalled the incident earlier. "Someone tried to make a move on Liam and me. There's something wrong with the wine."

Screech!

Just as she finished speaking, he harshly stepped on the brake and stopped the car abruptly.

"You were also drugged?!" He scowled in displeasure as his eyes turned glacial.

"Liam drank most of the wine. The drug's effect was strong, which explained why he was so out of control. I only had a small glass, so I was slightly better off. Regardless, I felt very uncomfortable when I was in the room assigned to me in the palace. I was hot and parched. Then, a servant brought over a cup of tea. I was so thirsty that I finished it all in a gulp. I felt better right after. After a short while, the effects of the drug had worn off."

Veronica told Matthew everything that had conspired in the palace. He quickly understood her underlying message. He pondered for a moment before asking, "Are you suspecting that there is an antidote in that cup of tea?"

"Liam organized the bonfire dinner and chose the location near the royal palace. Therefore, the royal family would have to take full responsibility if anything happened. So, Liam is certainly innocent, and so are the palace's inhabitants. Therefore, the only suspect is probably—her."

"Tiffany?"
