Bumpkin's Rich Handsome Husband

Both Veronica and the Larsons were in Bloomstead. However, the Larsons merely forced Veronica to

donate her bone marrow to cure their son, who was diagnosed with leukemia, instead of letting her

return to the family.

Now, Xavier even wondered if there was something fishy behind Veronica’s adoptive parents’ car

accident. Otherwise, how could everything be so coincidental?

“The Larsons repeatedly warned me to keep a tight lid on this matter, and if anyone ever finds out, they

will not treat Tony anymore. But, we’re old, and we can’t hold Veronica’s future back for medical

treatments’ sake. We can’t do that. That would be selfish of us.”

This was the exact reason Daniella insisted on leaving the hospital. She wanted to stop her medical

treatment and leave the hospital. After that, she could let Veronica leave Bloomstead, and Veronica

could be herself instead of pretending to be unattractive every day.

“If that’s so, then the Larsons are nothing but a bunch of jerks!” Xavier exclaimed. He

was fuming with anger yet felt deeply bad for the injustice done toward Veronica at the same time.

“Xavier..” Daniella looked at Xavier and said with a heavy tone. “I can tell that you don’t come from an

average family. Besides, you know the Larsons well. So, I figure your family is not of a mediocre middle-

class background.”

As her mother, Daniella knew Veronica’s character very well. This silly daughter of mine has tight lips.

She will never take the initiative to mention anything about the Larsons to Xavier. And as for Xavier... Not

only does he know Tiffany‘s name, but he also knows Floch‘s name. Thus, I can imagine that his family

background is certainly not lower than the Larsons, considering he is affiliated with them.

Later, she added, “Tony and I, we aren’t competent enough. We even dragged Veronica along with us to

live such a wretched life. But, I’m more afraid that there will be no one to care for her dearly, and she will

be bullied by the Larsons once we’ve departed from this world.”

The future was unpredictable, but Daniella was certain that the Larsons were definitely despicable.

“Mrs. Murphy, why do you trust me so much?” asked Xavier while taking the family photo from Daniella’s

hand. Then, he took another careful look at Veronica in the photo, shock and astonishment still lingering

deep down his heart.

“I may be old and my eyesight is failing, but my heart is as clear as crystal” Daniella heaved another

sigh. Then, she looked at Tony, who was lying on the hospital bed. “Although Veronica is our adopted

child, she has a kind and upright nature. Not only that, but she’s also filial and hardworking. But raised by

us, I’m sure she must have suffered from the bitter taste of life. Such a pitiful child she is.”

“Rest assured, Mrs. Murphy. I know what to do.”

As he said that, Xavier returned the photo to Daniella. “Make sure to keep the photo safely, and don’t let

others have their hands on it again.”

“Oh, sure, sure!” Daniella took the photo and walked over to the bed. As she stuffed the photo into her

bag, she explained, “It’s been a long time since I last saw Roni’s original look. I miss seeing her real look

so much, so I’ll take this photo out to look at it from time to time.”

Reading between the lines, Xavier could feel Daniella’s love for Veronica. His mixed emotions gradually

calmed down. However, it was still difficult for him to calm down every time he thought of Veronica.

Suddenly, an idea came into Xavier’s mind. How about I transfer both Mr. and Mrs. Murphy to another hospital for treatment, and all the surgical expenses are to be paid by me?

The Crawfords are rich too!

“Mrs. Murphy, is it necessary for Roni to keep pretending to be an ugly duckling if I pay the medical

expenses?”

“What’s the matter? You, too, despise her for being ugly, don’t you?”

“Mrs. Murphy… I didn’t think she was ugly before, so why would I despise her now? I just think that

things must be tough for her, considering she’s a girl.”

Honestly, Xavier never thought of himself as someone who knew how to care for a fair lady. It was simply

because, in that short moment, he felt pity for Veronica, who seemed to have suffered similar misfortune

as him.

“Oh, forget it.” Daniella waved her hand. “Roni has a strong temperament. She’ll never agree to this.

Besides, there’s nothing more we can do for Tony. It doesn’t matter anymore whether he gets treatment.

I’ve been wanting to be discharged from

the hospital for a long time, but Roni forbids me to do so.”

Then, the two chatted in the ward for a while. After that, Daniella went to open the door.

Another half an hour later, Veronica rushed over to the hospital hastily. “Mom, I’m sorry! I overslept…

Huh? Xavier, when did you come over?”

When we were on the phone early this morning, he simply said he got it, so I thought he would only be coming later.

After discovering Veronica’s life story, Xavier experienced mixed feelings in his heart when he saw her

again. However, he merely laughed it off. “Oh, I just arrived. Isn’t that right, Mrs. Murphy?”

“Right, right…” Daniella was very cooperative. Then, she asked Xavier, “You haven’t had a whiff of your

breakfast yet, have you? Roni, go ahead and take Xavier to have
