Her Billionaire Husband Chapter 225

Chapter 225 Succeeded in Rescuing Veronica

Finally, Veronica took a long-needed breath and opened her eyes after three minutes of resuscitation,
which felt like eternity.

“Roni, you’ve finally woken up!”

“Ah!”

Before Matthew could finish his sentence, Veronica instantly clutched her head with both hands and
rolled on the ground in utter pain. “It hurts… My head… My head hurts… Help me…”

Earlier on, Matthew had noticed Veronica’s odd behavior in the water, but he assumed it was because
she had run out of stamina.

Watching her torment before him made him realize that her condition was triggered and her head was
hurting badly once again.

A generally resilient woman like Veronica was now clutching her hand and screaming in pain. What she
was experiencing now was way above her tolerance threshold and her tears could not help rolling
down her face.

It was the first time that Matthew had felt such helplessness upon seeing the woman he loved suffering
out of torture. She… looks like she is suffocating…

He had always regarded himself as invincible up until this moment; he looked at her in torment as she
struggled on the ground and he was at a complete loss of what to do for her.

With her hands still clutching over her head, Veronica began hitting her head onto the ground.



As soon as Matthew saw that, he quickly reached out and placed his hand in between the ground and
her forehead to create a cushion-barrier.

The ground surface here was not flat at all and the rocks had jagged edges all around, so she would
immediately bleed and be injured if she continued hitting directly on the surface.

The spot where he placed his hand was covered with jagged rocks that protruded out beneath.

Meanwhile, Veronica was in so much torment and she repeatedly banged her head on the ground. In
fact, she hit her head against Matthew’s hand and after several attempts, his hand was pierced by the
jagged rocks and blood trickled down his hand.

“It hurts… Help me… Matthew, sobs… Matthew, I’m in pain… Sobs…” She hugged her head and
squatted on the ground as she hit her head against the ground repeatedly. In the end, she sobbed
helplessly.

Her sobs felt like a knife lodged in Matthew’s heart and it was heart-twisting for him to see her in such a
state. He had never felt this much despair in his life as to watching his beloved woman tormented in
front of him and yet, there was nothing he could do to help her.

Finally, a constructive idea had popped into his head—medics!

“Roni, just hold on. We’re about to get out of here,” he comforted her while freeing his other hand to
grab his phone. He opened it and lifted it high as he tried to search for a phone signal around this area.

However, there was not the slightest bit of phone signal available at all.

As for Veronica, she continued to sob in pain. Matthew could not bear to witness this for another
second, so he lifted his hand and ruthlessly attacked her on the nape of her neck.



The woman who had been previously sobbing hard suddenly felt darkness descend upon her as she
fell into an unconscious state once again.

At that point, Matthew finally realized that she had actually been successfully resuscitated during his
continuous CPR attempts. After regaining her heartbeat, she had merely been in an unconscious state.

Presently, she was no longer complaining about the pain while silently being unconscious on the
ground.

Suddenly, Matthew had a random thought that crossed his mind. If I had stopped her from entering the
water with me just now, would she have tagged along without me knowing? And if she had done so,
wouldn’t she have died if her condition was triggered in the middle of her swim? With this in his mind,
he was left with nothing but shock and fear.

He removed his jacket and covered Veronica with it. Subsequently, he lifted his head to look at the
steep way out. He placed his phone in his pocket and headed over to scan the area as he tried to find a
suitable spot to climb out.

At last, he decided to enter the water and swim to the opposite side before climbing out from the other
side of the wall.

The uneven edges of the wall were a perfect climbing spot and he stepped on the protruding rocks
while grabbing hold of the crevices on top, slowly but surely, he was reaching the top.

So, let’s recap. Not only did Matthew have his right hand torn by Veronica, his left hand had also just
been smashed by her on the edged surface.

Each time he exerted pressure, blood would trickle down his wrist to his elbow and his white suit shirt
would be stained with bright-red blood.



Despite that, he was unperturbed as he was intent on getting out immediately to get a phone signal to
call for help and send Veronica for medical treatment as soon as possible.

Everything hit him in waves and at that moment, his spirit to succeed was stronger than ever.

With each step he took to climb out, there were some wet rocks that fell from time to time, causing him
to then slip due to the leather shoes he had on. At times, he nearly fell but he managed to luckily
overcome the danger each time. With great success, he finally arrived at the exit.

He stood at the top of the cave and realized he was surrounded by a wide cliff with a huge rock nearby
while still able to look far ahead.

After pin-pointing his current position and looking to his side, he noticed that the Kings Residence was
located very far away from them.

Taken aback as he thought, How big is this underground maze?

While treasuring every second he got, he quickly took out his phone to find that the phone signal had
been restored.

Although the battery level on his phone had run quite low, it could still sustain long enough for him to
make a phone call.

Buzz. Buzz. Buzz.

As soon as the phone signal was restored to his phone, his phone vibrated continuously from all the
text messages and notifications of missed phone calls.

Matthew ignored the messages and went straight into his contact list to call Thomas.

“Doo—”



It did not take long for the person on the other end to answer the call as soon as he dialed it. “Boss?
Boss, is that you? Where are you and Miss Murphy right now?”

“It’s a long story. Send the helicopter right away to the bottom of the cliff of a mountain opposite the
Northern face of Goldie Mountain. I’ll hang a white shirt on the side of the cliff and once you’ve
confirmed the location, come with some men and bring some climbing equipment to perform a rescue
mission inside the cave. I also need an anti-leak container to store about one liter of water. Get me a
set of lady’s outfit that’s loose-fitting too.” Matthew gave the instructions calmly.

As soon as Thomas heard that, he realized that his boss must have encountered a dangerous
situation. Without asking any further questions, he instantly sent some men to the location as he
prepared the containers and departed too.

Matthew was brought up in this area, so he knew the mountains in this area well. However, he did not
expect that the location connected to the hidden stream was in fact opposite Goldie Mountain.

He removed the white shirt he had on and fashioned a rope out of his sleeve. Subsequently, he tied it
to a rock and made his way back into the cave.

Inside the cave, Veronica remained in an unconscious state. Matthew sat by her side and stood guard
silently.

In no time at all, there was a commotion of a helicopter outside and the whirring of the blades could be
clearly heard. Upon the long-awaited moment, he patiently waited for the rescue.

Thirty minutes later, he heard noises from the outside.

“Boss?”

“Young Master Matthew?”



“Is anyone down there?”

Several voices rang out and Matthew responded immediately, “Get down here.”

As soon as he said that, the people outside heard his command and quickly climbed down from the
entrance of the cave.

As Matthew saw them descending from the top, he helped Veronica up and covered her with his jacket.
He buttoned it up to prevent her from exposing her body.

After everyone had arrived at the cave, Thomas entered the water and swam toward them. At that
point, he realized that Veronica and Matthew had sustained different levels of injuries respectively.

“Boss, what happened to you?” a shocked Thomas asked with concern.

He had been working for Matthew all these years, but he had never seen him in such a disheveled
state.

“Hand me the clothes and face the other side,” he ordered coldly.

Thomas handed over the clothes and signaled to his subordinates. Subsequently, everyone turned
around and had their backs facing Matthew.

He unbuttoned the clothes and helped Veronica into them. Just as they thought this was the end,
Matthew said to Thomas, “Send Roni to the hospital right away to get a blood test done. I need to head
back inside.”
