Bumpkin’s Rich Handsome Husband novel Chapter 91

After exiting the car park, Veronica took a cab to Xavier's company.

Xavier was now waiting for her at the company's entrance. Seeing her coming over in a light gray sportswear, he immediately went up to her and said, "Roni, I'm sorry I couldn't help."

Feeling a bit guilty, he felt that what he did wasn't appropriate.

Although he really wanted to accompany Veronica to Almeida, he had something to deal with in his company. Also, his father, Hendric, was also heading there, so it wasn't a bad idea to send her there alone so that he could get to know her all over again.

Xavier believed that after two weeks of mingling with her, Hendric would definitely accept her.

After all, he had previously ridiculed Veronica about her ugly looks, but now that her true identity was revealed and she had the same gorgeous face as Tiffany, it would definitely work to her favor.

"It's fine. I'm now one of your staff members, so it's my duty to serve the company." Veronica raised her brow and smiled, looking relaxed.

Standing in front of her, Xavier gave her a huge embrace.

While holding her tightly in his arms, he whispered, "I'll wait for you to return.

When you come back, I'll give you a big surprise."

"What is the surprise?" She pushed him away while her eyes brightened. "Are you going to give me my bonus?"

The moment she heard the word 'surprise', all she had in mind was money, which was why she looked so excited.

Looking at her expression, Xavier didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Yes, you're so smart."

If I'm going to propose to her, I must prepare a huge gift that she will definitely like.

"You should have told me earlier. I would have been gone by now. Haha..." Veronica said cheerfully.

"The mountain roads there are bumpy. Be careful." He reminded her while pointing at a minivan next to them, "Everything that we have prepared for the children in Almeida is all loaded in that van. They will drive the vehicle to the place. As for you, I've prepared a plane ticket for you to fly over there. After you have alighted from the plane, there will be someone to pick you up."

Since Almeida was located far away from Bloomstead, they could only take the plane to the nearest destination before traveling to Almeida by car.

"Alright. I understand." Veronica nodded.

"When you arrive at Almeida, there won't be any roads for the car to drive through, so you will have to walk up the mountain by foot. It'll be arduous, so you must take care of yourself."

Xavier didn't forget to repeatedly remind her.

"Alright. I understand. I'll be fine. Trust me." She raised her brow again and smiled.

Then, Xavier and Veronica took a picture together with the other colleagues who were also assigned to Almeida.

After the picture, the van drove the other colleagues off while Xavier drove her to the airport.

"Safe travels." He gave Veronica a hug. "If anything happens, you must remember to contact me immediately."

He looked at her with an obvious hint of reluctance in his eyes.

Veronica combed her hair with her fingers and smiled. "I'm only leaving for two weeks. Why do you have to make such a big deal out of it? Alright, I'm leaving. Goodbye."

While dragging her luggage, she turned around to leave before waving her hand at him without looking back.

After having her ticket checked in the boarding area, she boarded the plane and found her seat to take a seat.

Since her seat was next to a window, she was able to see the beautiful scenery outside.

A few hours later, the plane arrived at Lothen.

As soon as Veronica got off the plane, she met the person who was assigned to pick her up. She entered the waiting car and it drove all the way to the bottom of Almeida's mountain before she alighted from it.

The driver said to her, "We can't drive any further from here. We still need to walk for about 4 to 5 hours to reach Almeida. We should be able to arrive there before dark."

"Alright. Let's hurry up and get going. It's getting late."

Veronica carried her luggage and followed the driver up the mountain.

The driver's name was Quincy Neelson, who was an extremely enthusiastic dark-skinned and slightly chubby boy.
