373.Chapter 373
Matthew’s face tumed grim in an instant.
I’ve already told you, Sophie is genuinely a kind and pure–hearted girl. If you ever met her, you’d definitely want to be friends with her…
“Ugh, stop with the nauseating talk” Diana cut him off, her face full of disdain. “I would never be friends with some illegitimate brat, especially one as scheming as her!
Her words made Matthew’s expression darken even further, and Gabriel’s face also grew cold.
But Diana couldn’t care less about their reactions.
You call her pure? Then why was Liza forced to become a nun? You call her kind? Then why did I hear she even poisoned you? What is it. Matthew? Do you have some twisted fetish for being poisoned?”
Over the past couple of days spent with Eliza, Diana had heard plenty of juicy stories
One of them was about Sophie poisoning Matthew,
Matthew held back his anger and said, “Eliza’s becoming a nun was her own decision. She’s petty and malicious. What does that have to do with Sophie?
“And as for the poisoning, it was all a misunderstanding! Eliza used poison to control me and humiliate Sophie in front of everyone at the banquet. Sophie acted out of anger in the heat of the moment, that’s all. She even apologized to me afterward and explained everything. So none of this is Sophie’s fault! If you want to blame someone, blame Eliza for her scheming!”
“You really are a fool.” Diana couldn’t resist the jab, even with Gabriel watching. “She poisoned you because she was angry? Did it never occur to you that if she’d used a lethal poison, you’d be dead by now?”
“No way! Matthew retorted without hesitation, “Sophie would never have any reason to harm me.”
Diana threw up her hands in exasperation. “Then why on earth do you trust her so much?”
Matthew hesitated for a moment, his gaze flickering, before finally speaking, his voice steady but soft. “Because she saved
Nobody ever truly understood him, so he never bothered to explain,
But he didn’t want Diana to misunderstand him, too, so this time, he decided to speak up.
Diana was momentarily stunned. “She saved you?”
Matthew nodded. “Yes, and not just once.”
More than once? Diana’s brows knitted together. “When? What happened? Weren’t you supposed to be safe in Hasen City? How did you end up in danger?”
Matthew turned to glance at Gabriel
Gabriel’s gaze met Matthew’s, and for a brief moment, a rare flicker of guilt crossed his face.
“So it is about that incident… No wonder Matthew is so protective of Sophie.
Gabriel stayed silent, and Matthew seemed reluctant to go into detail. Matthew stopped halfway through and shook his
head.

Diana shrugged “Alright, you’ve made your choice. If she’s the one, then stop wasting time and sign the annulment papers already
Diana raised her hand, and immediately someone stepped forward, holding out a freshly prepared annulment document to Matthew
Matthew’s face turned dark with anger ‘Diana, what is the meaning of this?”
“Isn’t it obvious?” Diana replied coolly, “Since you’ve chosen her, I won’t marry you.”
“Diana” Matthew gritted his teeth, his voice trembling with fury. “I’ve already told you. Sophie saved my life! Even knowing that, you’re still forcing me to make a choice?”
Diana let out a cold laugh “First, you never exp Successfully unlocked! ipposed to know if she really saved your life?

“So you’re saying I’m less important to you than Eliza, is that it? Matthew’s voice cracked, a hint of despair creeping in. Diana nodded coldly, her response mercilessly concise. “Yes.”
