Chapter 108

Matthew’s words silenced Benedict.

Indeed, he had suspected it.

Before Eliza’s birthday, they had never realized there was a problem with the order of their birthdays.

It wasn’t until Nolan pointed it out that they realized that, despite being the same age, Sophie’s birthday was earlier than Eliza’s. Sophic should have been the older sister, but she was the younger one.

And they had never paid attention to such a detail before.

The guilt–ridden Benedict quickly figured out why.

Since they had even forgotten Eliza’s birthday, there was no way they could have noticed the order.

Although their father later explained to them that Sophie had changed her birthday to their mother’s death anniversary.

But he never told them about this before.

Benedict thought, ‘Die he not tell us because he didn’t think it was a big deal?

‘Or… is there really some unspeakable secret?‘

Benedict tossed and turned all night after returning that day.

In the end, he spent the entire night convincing himself.

He thought to himself, ‘Father has always been a man of high moral character and integrity. Moreover, when Mother was alive, they were deeply in love. Therefore, Father would never betray Mother‘

Holding onto this thought, Benedict did not doubt anything again.

He even persuaded Dylan, who had the same doubts, telling them not to overthink it.

After all, Nolan and his father were rivals in the court, so Nolan must be trying to slander his father’s character.

But no matter how much Benedict tried to convince himself, once the seed of doubt was planted, it would eventually break through its shell.

Today, Matthew was used by Eliza to deliberately expose all of this.

First, she planted seeds of doubt in everyone’s minds at the party.

Then, she targeted Benedict, using blunt words devoid of evidence as a weapon to pry open the shell Benedict had placed over the seed in his heart, forcing it to sprout.

Benedict said, “I won’t breathe a word of what you said today. Once we’re home, you’ll forget this conversation ever happened, understand?”

Matthew, who was beside them, suddenly blinked, his gaze sharpening as his eyes lost their vacant look. “What?”

His mind had barely cleared when he heard Benedict’s reprimand. Bewildered, Matthew asked, “Benedict, did I say something just now?”

Thinking that Matthew had understood, Benedict said reassuringly, “Good, that’s right. You didn’t say anything, and I didn’t hear anything.”

He patted Matthew’s shoulder. “Come on, let’s go home.”

Matthew was utterly clueless about what he had said. He followed Benedict back to the Duke’s estate in a daze.

An hour later, the feeling that he had forgotten something important lingered, prompting Matthew to seek out his elder brother for clarification.

The feeling that he had forgotten something important lingered, prompting Matthew to seek out his elder brother for clarification.

He had just opened the door to go out when he noticed someone in the courtyard. “Sophie?”

“Sophie?”

Matthew recognized the person at a glance, and a smile immediately appeared on his face. “Why didn’t you call me when you arrived? What are you doing standing alone in the courtyard?”

Hearing the voice, Sophie stiffened and quickly hid something behind her back as she turned around.

Sophie quickly calmed her pounding heart and explained calmly, “Matt… Matthew, I thought you might be resting, so I didn’t want to disturb you.”

Matthew raised his eyebrows slightly, “Why are you stammering when you talk to me? What are you hiding behind your back?”

Sophie carefully took out the thing.

Matthew’s eyes lit up, “Isn’t this the roast duck from the Phoenix Restaurant? Did you buy this for me?”

Sophie smiled, “Yes, you came back early just now, and I thought you must not be full, so I made a detour to the Phoenix Restaurant and brought you your favorite roast duck.”

Matthew, who was about to go looking for Benedict, suddenly stopped in his tracks.

He said, “Good. My dear Sophie is so thoughtful. You even remembered what I like to eat.”

Matthew smiled happily. “Come in and sit down. I happen to be a little hungry. Let’s eat together.”

After the two sat down, Matthew couldn’t wait to open the oiled paper that wrapped the roast duck.

Sophie quickly waved her hand. “No, I’m already full from the party. I really can’t eat anymore. You can have it yourself.”

Matthew was, of course, completely defenseless against Sophie whom he loved the most.

So when Sophie said she couldn’t eat, he really thought she couldn’t, so he began to eat with gusto.

It wasn’t until he had eaten almost half of it that a strong wave of dizziness suddenly rushed to his head.

Before Matthew could react, he held his head and looked up at Sophie who was sitting opposite him, “Sophie, this roast duck seems…”

Sophie still had the same innocent expression on her face, “What’s wrong with the roast duck?”

“This roast duck is…” Before Matthew could finish speaking, his eyes rolled back and he collapsed onto the table with a loud

thud.

After a long while, seeing that he didn’t move, Sophie slowly got up and looked at him with disgust.

She said, “Useless thing. I have to do everything myself.”
