Bumpkin's Rich Handsome Husband novel Chapter 1019

Chapter 1019 I’m Leaving

After reading Mateo’s letter, Veronica felt that her nose was sour while the sharp pain in her heart was threatening to suffocate her.

As she looked at the neat handwriting, she could envision the Mateo Elrod that was full of vigor in her mind.

He was originally a cheerful child and could have lived a relaxed life, but Crayson had burdened him so much that his shoulders could not sustain the weight.

It caused Mateo to remember that kind of ‘pain’ for the rest of his life, which resulted in his sunny disposition being overtaken by darkness.

It was also on this day that ‘Zac’ led his people to the harbor and boarded the ship that was prepared by Dominik to leave the hidden clan.

Once they left, Veronica personally buried Crayson, Randy, and Hayley in the same cemetery as Tiffany.

Matthew was still injured, so he was recuperating at One Piece Restaurant.

She was the only one who went to settle their funeral rites.

As she looked at the pictures on their tombstones, she sighed deeply before she said, “May your souls rest in peace.”

She stood in front of Crayson’s tombstone and looked at the picture of someone with gray temples and a white beard.

Eventually, her vision was blurred as tears swam in her eyes.

Her mind replayed the scenes of her and Crayson together—be it the moments of happiness, childish play, or the time when she was lectured and punished.

No matter which scene it was, it all left Veronica heartbroken.

He regarded her like his own daughter while she thought of him as her elder.

Even though they were not blood relatives, he was like one to her.

Such an ending was not what anyone expected.

“What’s up?” Matthew asked.

Dominik glanced at Veronica, who was not far away.

“Did you and Veronica visit the research center in the west zone yesterday?”

Matthew originally thought that nobody knew about it, but he never expected that Dominik would be made aware.

“I’m impressed that you found out so quickly.”

“Mother always thought that I was oblivious to the research center in the west zone, but I already knew about it about ten years ago.The secret passage under the research center leads to a secret room where there are venomous insects.I went to take a look, but the insects are all dead.What happened?” Dominik queried.

Matthew took out a cigarette and offered it to Dominik.

Then, he sighed and elaborated, “Roni had her memories partially sealed by Crayson.There are little venomous insects inside her body, so to prevent them from affecting her in the future, I went to the secret room and used the queen to lure the little ones out.”
