Bumpkin's Rich Handsome Husband

Chapter 24

After that, Daniella beckoned Xavier over. Come and sit.”

Xavier walked over and sat down next to her

Once Xavier had sat down, Daniella shook her head and sighed. “My daughter is a pitiful child. Originally, we were warned repeatedly not to disclose this matter. But, Tony and I, we’re getting old. So, I think it’s time for her to find someone who will care for her dearly.” Though Daniella was Veronica’s adoptive mother, she never failed to raise Veronica as if she was her biological mother. Daniella loved Veronica more than anything else in this world.

Daniella knew she could not afford to cost Veronica her chance in finding a good gentleman simply because they wanted to treat Tony. Hence, she felt that she was obliged to speak out the truth despite the matter being exposed, and the Larsons might possibly kick them out of the hospital.

“Look at how beautiful and adorable the girl in the photo is,” Daniella said, pointing at the person in the photo. Then, a motherly smile showed at the corners of her mouth, and she added, “She’s my daughter, Roni.”

“Roni? But… isn’t that Floch Larson’s daughter, Tiffany?” Xavier asked in disbelief.

In the upper-class circle, not many were unaware of the talented and beautiful Tiffany Larson, the No.1 beauty of the Larsons

“Yeah, she’s like the spitting image of Tiffany. Truthfully, Veronica is not my biological daughter. She’s a child I had brought back home a few years ago. Her biological parents are Floch Larson and Rachel Zimmerman, while Tiffany is her identical twin sister.”

The news came as a total surprise to Xavier, and he was shocked beyond words. “Identical?”

The girl in the photo had fair skin. Her smile was pure and lovely, like a spring breeze, whereas Veronica had dark skin, thick bushy eyebrows, and freckles all over her face. In short, the girl in the photo looked way different than the Veronica that Xavier knew. It was hard for him to imagine that the woman who looked so unattractive was actually born this beautiful.

“She’s pretty, isn’t she? My Roni is really pretty.” Daniella could not help but praise Veronica. However, her facial expression darkened in the next second, and her turbid

eyes were filled with distress. “But a few months ago, her biological parents showed up when Tony and I were hospitalized due to a car accident. We had no moncy for the medical treatments and nearly got chased out of the hospital when they told us they would give us free medical treatment.”
