Bumpkin’s Rich Handsome Husband novel Chapter 987

Lying in bed, Veronica fell asleep due to weariness.

When she woke up again, the sky had already turned bright.

Crayson and Hayley came to visit her, and the maids had also delivered some herbal medicine to the table.

"Come on, Veronica. Drink the medicine."

Crayson held the bowl of herbal medicine and stirred it with a spoon so that it would cool down faster.

His friendly demeanor gave Veronica the illusion that he was someone very close to her.

However…

He was actually an evil wolf in sheep's clothing.

"Leave it. I'll drink it later." Lying in bed, she asked, "Master Crayson, I feel confused. Can you tell me what happened after I arrived here?"

"Sure." Crayson instantly agreed and started sharing the story of what happened after she arrived at the hidden clan. Of course, everything was fabricated. He made Matthew, Skyler, and Shirley enemies and even reminded her to stay away from them and not to believe them.

Moreover, he added that Matthew forced her to have sex with him and made her pregnant by accident. Eventually, he strangled their child to death.

Crayson made up nonsense but said it in an absolutely serious manner. He racked his brains trying to slander Matthew so that Veronica would hate him to the bones.

"Where is that b*stard? I'm going to kill him!"

Veronica clenched her fists and flipped the table, causing the medicine to splash all over the ground. "I'm going to kill him right now!"

As she lifted her blanket and attempted to get out of bed, Crayson pushed her down. "You're still weak now. You are no match for him yet," he comforted her, but she could catch the hidden triumphant smile that he tried to suppress.

He thought Veronica had believed him.

"Do you remember Mateo?" asked Hayley.

She stood up, walked up to Hayley, and questioned with a murderous gaze, "Tell me! Where is Matthew Kings?!"

Veronica's voice was filled with hatred and resentment, but that was because of Hayley and Crayson.

It was their spiteful acts that made her resent them to the bones!

Despite that, she knew she couldn't act rashly.

She was certain that the reason Matthew broke Mateo's ribs and sent him to the hospital was that he couldn't find her and assumed that she was being kidnapped, hence he tried to threaten them by injuring Mateo.

The fact that Crayson would rather watch Mateo get seriously injured and hospitalized in order to prevent Matthew from finding her was enough to prove how cruel he was.

In that case, Veronica wouldn't be able to threaten Crayson into handing over her child back to her.

Currently, the only way was to play along with them! Yes, that was what she had to do!
