Bumpkin's Rich Handsome Husband

Chapter 83

Chapter 83

At this point, Veronica walked up to Tiffany. Lifting her hands, the former wrapped them around Tiffany‘s neck and pinned her to the wall. “Also, if any of you touch my parents again, I‘ll make sure to bring you to the grave with me when I die!” Veronica hissed.

Recently, for reasons beyond her control, Veronica had been forced to play nice with Floch and Rachel in front of the Kings Family, but that didn‘t mean she got along with her enemy now.

“Ugh!” Caught off–guard by Veronica‘s sudden actions, Tiffany could only feel the pain in her neck and the lack of airflow through her lungs. “L–Let go of me… Let go…”

She struggled and tried to resist to the best of her ability, but found that her strength was no match for Veronica‘s.

Suddenly, Tiffany was terrified, as she was realizing only now that she had underestimated Veronica‘s abilities.

“Let go of you? Of course I‘ll let you go. But—” Veronica patted Tiffany‘s cheek warningly with her free hand as she murmured, “–you‘d best deliver my message. And by the way, I am now Elizabeth Kings‘ god–granddaughter. So, step out of line again, and I‘ll make sure that you never marry into the Kings Family.” With that, she suddenly let go.

Instantly, air rushed back into Tiffany‘s lungs and she took deep breaths as she held onto her neck. At that moment, she felt hurt, pained and furious as she thought to herself, How is it that I can never outmatch Veronica?!

Weakly, Tiffany leaned against the wall and glared at Veronica with red–rimmed eyes. “Don‘t get too complacent. I‘ll get my payback.”

“Let‘s see who wins, then!” Veronica sneered before turning to leave.

Instantly, the smile on her face vanished, only to be replaced with a cold, sinister expression.

While she was, in fact, no actual threat to the Larsons, she would never admit defeat.

Even if she didn‘t succeed this time, there would always be a next time.

As long as she was still alive, she would make life hell for them.

Once Veronica returned to the table, she found Matthew to be aloof, so she sai down and began chatting with Xavier, completely ignoring the other man.

What she didn‘t notice was Matthew‘s expression darkening.

At that moment, Tiffany returned, sitting down opposite Matthew and keeping silent, all the while acting as if nothing had happened.
