272.Chapter 272

Back when the Padilla family was at its peak, their only daughter had married into the Stonor family and given birth to five

children.

The Padillas had given a gift at the birth of each of their grandchildren.

Just as Eliza had received Solacecrest Manor, so too had her four elder brothers received their own manors.

However, because Eliza was the youngest and only granddaughter, she had received an additional gift – the Oriphoenix Building.

What Matthew had in his possession was another large manor on the outskirts of Hasen City named Stone Sea Manor.

In her past life, Sophie had long coveted manors in their possession.

After all, those manors were carefully selected by the Padilla family, the most valuable estates. As long as they weren’t deliberately destroyed or abandoned, even if they were just left there, they would be a gold mine that could continuously generate money.

The fact that they were born into such privilege, able to possess everything, had always filled Sophie with envy.

It was simply impossible for her not to seize them.

So, first, Sophie had Matthew and the others help her seize Solacecrest Manor and Oriphoenix Building from Eliza’s hands. Later, she coaxed them into offering up their own manors.

But after obtaining them, Sophie became disdainful.

Especially towards Eliza’s Solacecrest Manor and Phoenix Restaurant, Sophie destroyed them without hesitation.

So much so that when Eliza saw Solacecrest Manor again, it was already in ruins.

When Eliza went to confront her, Sophie cried pitifully in Matthew’s arms, saying, “I just feel uncomfortable whenever I see that manor and that building. Every time I go in, it’s as if a ghost is around me.

“I’m afraid that there might be some lost souls inside, so I took the liberty of having people tear them down. I’m sorry, Eliza. If you’re angry, then hit me. It’s all my fault for being insensible. Next time… Next time I won’t do this again.”

As Sophie spoke, she began to cry. It made Matthew and the others feel extremely sorry for her

One by one, they pointed at Eliza and scolded her directly, “You’re hopeless! All you do is fight, fight, fight!

“Solacecrest Manor and Oriphoenix Building aren’t yours, they’re Sophie’s. She can do whatever she wants with them, and it‘ s none of your business!

“That’s enough, Eliza. Don’t bother us with these trivial matters anymore, and don’t think for a second that we’ll take your

side.

“Get out of here now! If we ever see you bullying Sophie again, don’t blame me for being unkind!”

Thinking back on it now, even though so much time had passed, those words still seemed to ring in Eliza’s ears, forever etched in her memory.

Eliza looked at the agitated Matthew with a calm expression.

Eliza thought, ‘In my past life, you helped Sophie seize Solacecrest Manor and @riphoenix Building from me. In this life, it’s my turn to take what is rightfully mine.

‘Besides, they originally belonged to the Padilla family. I would rather throw them than let them fall into Sophie’s hands.’

“That’s right, I want Solacecrest Manor. Of course, you can choose not to gamble, but I don’t know how long you can hold

out,” Eliza said.
