Chapter 239
Matthew’s face was pale, his throat was hoarse, and even breathing was painful.
But seeing her so lost, he felt a pang in his chest. He said. ‘I’m pretty stubborn. Once I start something. I don’t back down easily. So you shouldn’t think about backing out either. Whatever you want. I’ll help you make it happen.”
But Thalia just couldn’t summon any will to fight. Everything that happened today made it painfully clear. She simply couldn’t stand up to Darion.
If she really pushed him over the edge, he’d lose all restraint.
And that would just drag even more people into this mess.
She was really worried about Matthew.
But Matthew’s attitude was so resolute.
That made Thalia start to feel lost.
Thalia buried her face in her hands, feeling completely crushed and hopeless.
‘Sigh… Thalia couldn’t help but let out a weary breath, her spirit sinking even lower.
Matthew let out a sigh. “Thalia, are you really going to call off the case, give in to him, and just go back to that miserable life you had before?”
His voice was calm as he laid out what your life would be. “He’ll keep bouncing between you and Miya, always putting Keith first. You’ll always be the backup. Is that really the life you want?”
Thalia took a deep breath and dropped her hands. Her eyes were a little red, but there was a new determination shining through.
“Okay, I’ll go with your plan.” Thalia said, her voice firm.
‘No way am I backing down. I’m not dropping the case, Thalia thought, her resolve solid as ever.
Matthew gave her a warm smile. “It’s not about following my lead. It’s about sticking to what you truly want, Thalia. Never stop loving yourself.”
Thalia felt her heart stir, then said, “I still owe you an apology.”
“Alright, I accept it, and I forgive you,” Matthew replied with a gentle smile. “But I’m really exhausted right now. I just want to take a nap.”
“Alright, I won’t bother you,” Thalia said softly.
“You should head home. I can’t really rest with you hanging around, Matthew started to send her off.
Thalia hesitated. “But I’m worried about you being here all by yourself.”
Matthew looked at her in surprise. “You think you can protect me?”
Thalia was at a loss for words.
“Alright, go on. It’s late. Head home and get some rest. Things aren’t going to get any easier, so you need to stay strong.

PPP
Matthew said gently.
His attitude was warm, and the way he looked at her was always gentle and steady, like a warm, dependable big brother
Thalia nodded. “Alright, bye.”
Mm. Matthew replied softly.
As Thalia turned to leave. Matthew closed his eyes and let out a long, weary sigh.
Thalia walked out of the hospital. It was deep into the night, and the breeze carried a subtle chill that crept under her skin. naking her shiver for reasons she couldn’t quite explain.
Thalia.”
Just then. Jason Campbell’s voice rang out.
