Bumpkin’s Rich Handsome Husband novel Chapter 927

Crayson said, "That proves that Matthew is badly hurt."

Hayley asked, "Is it caused by your weapons?"

"If that's the case, then his survival chances are slim. Veronica said she wouldn't go into the mountains unless she sees Matthew, and this is going to put a wrench in our plans." He analyzed.

The elders nodded in agreement, whereas one of them said, "It's alright. Eleanor's out of the mountains, so even if Veronica doesn't get first place, it won't hurt us much."

"True."

"He's right."

"Matthew's the biggest obstacle in our plan. He needs to die for our plan to work."

Everyone started discussing.

Crayson's face fell, and he stroked his beard. "She'll hate us even more if we do that." He looked at Hayley, worried that this might put a strain on her relationship with Veronica.

Hayley stated, "If he dies, then no one would know we killed him—not even Veronica. She won't hate us. Without Matthew's protection, she will need to rely on us."

Someone nodded. "Madam Hayley is right. His death brings nothing but benefits for us."

"Yeah."

She had no idea if taking the risk and telling Crayson that Matthew was hurt was the right thing to do, but he was the best bet she had. No matter how powerful Matthew was, he was no match for Crayson's forces as long as he was in the hidden clan.

He and Destiny came up with a plan to kill Matthew. Now that he was badly hurt, Crayson might kill him, unless he and Hayley cared about her getting first place in the hunting festival, that was. Either way, Crayson would send his men to search for Matthew.

As long as her forces followed Crayson's men, she would know where Matthew was once they found him. Then, she could strike and find Matthew as well as keep him safe. The long night then began.

…

Let's turn back time to a few hours ago. Eleanor was in Lakeside Residence, unconscious for a few hours after the snake venom got into her system. Then, she woke up on her bed.

"Princess, you're awake."
