Bumpkin’s Rich Handsome Husband novel Chapter 883

At Mountainside Gardens, Veronica went to the study to continue learning after breakfast. Soon, Matthew joined her.

She looked up at him and frowned. "You… Crayson and the others are coming back soon. Would it be bad to show up like this in front of them?"

Last night, Matthew had taken off the makeup. Just now, Veronica thought that he was taking a long time to put on his makeup, but she was shocked to see him showing up without his mask.

"Hendrey found out my identity at the entrance of One Piece Restaurant last night. What's the point of hiding the truth?" He was dressed in a black suit, his hair slick and shiny. He was back to the cold but handsome man from before, and she was slightly bewitched by his appearance.

"True." She walked to him, held his hands, and scanned him from head to toe. "You look better and cooler as you."

Ever since joining the hidden clan, Matthew had been going around as Iron Pillar, an awkward sight she was not used to.

"Is it so?" He withdrew his hand and circled an arm around her waist. Then, he leaned over and gave her a peck on the forehead and the lips.

The unannounced intimacy made her blush. Suddenly, a thought came into her mind, and she pushed him away. "Since Hendrey knows your identity now, he will surely inform Zac. Zac would know that it was you who cut his hand off. But why hasn't he come for you?"

Knowing how vindictive Zac was, she wondered why he had not made any move after having his hand severed.

"I got it now…" she blurted out her thoughts without waiting for his reply, "It's the hunting ceremony! He must be waiting to attack you at the ceremony without anyone knowing! Even if he kills you in the public eye, he could blame it on the event itself. Once you sign the waiver for death, you leave your safety in the hands of God."

Her bright face looked grim and clouded with worries. He smiled at her. "I should not call myself his opponent if I was that weak."
