“Are you lying to me?” Dylan asked hesitantly

Matthew let out a bitter laugh, his eyes flashing with frustration. “I wish I were lying, but unfortunately, it’s the truth”

Dylan frowned, confusion written all over his face. “Why?”

Matthew’s tone turned cold. “Because of Eliza.”

Dylan’s brows furrowed even deeper. “What does she have to do with this?”

“Everything.” Matthew snapped, his voice laced with anger. “She’s the one who forced me to break off my engagement with Diana”

Matthew’s anger surged, and he could almost see himself storming up the mountain to Saint Grace Hunnery, ready to confront Eliza and make her pay. The thought alone was the only thing that could momentarily ease his frustration.

“That’s impossible,” Dylan said firmly, “Don’t even try to fool me. With how close Eliza and Diana are, unless Diana wanted to end the engagement, Eliza would never have done such a thing”

Dylan’s words hit the mark perfectly.

Because they were so accurate, Matthew’s face darkened instantly

It was indeed Diana who wanted to end the engagement.

“If it weren’t for Eliza, why would Diana even think of breaking off the engagement with me?” Matthew’s voice grew louder. his emotions spiraling out of control.

“That’s because you hurt her!” Dylan shot back, his tone sharp. “You knew how close Diana and Eliza were, yet you still did those things. Once Diana found out, how could she possibly stand by and do nothing?

“And I don’t believe she immediately demanded to end the engagement. She must have said something else first, didn’t she? What did you do to make her so disappointed that she had to end things?”

Dylan’s mind was working exceptionally fast at this moment.

In just a few sentences, he had pieced together the truth with remarkable accuracy.

The more precise his deductions were, the darker Matthew’s expression became.

After all, just a moment ago, he was blaming Eliza, but now, thanks Dylan’s analysis, it seemed all the fault lay with him.

Matthew pressed his lips tightly together, initially unwilling to speak. Yet under Dylan’s piercing gaze, he quickly began to unravel.

“It’s not that I let her down!” Matthew’s voice wavered. “She gave me an impossible choice!

“Dylan, can you believe it? Diana made me pick between her and Sophie! How could I even choose?”

Sophie clenched her fists tightly at those words.

She lowered her head, a sly smirk tugging at her lips where no one could see.

She thought, ‘Unbelievable! First that brat Eliza, and now this brazen hussy dares to challenge me? She’s got a death wish!

‘That audacious woman must think she can take what’s mine!

‘Even if Matthew is a useless fool, he’s still mine!

‘Anyone who dares to challenge me is simply asking for it!

Dylan hadn’t expected Diana to give Matthew such an ultimatum, but it all started to make sense now.

After all, Eliza’s decision to leave home back then had a lot to do with Sophie.

And knowing Diana’s fiery temper, it was a miracle she hadn’t confronted Sophie directly

What Dylan didn’t know was that on the very day Diana arrived in Hasen Cit head–on.

she had indeed intended to confront Sophie

However, Sophie had been at the Ministry of Justice instead of the Duke’s estate at the time, narrowly avoiding Diana’s wrath.

As a result, all of Diana’s anger had fallen squarely on Matthew.

Diana never intended to force Matthew to chor

7 Sophie and even insulted Eliza to her face,

she could not let it slide.

Successfully unlocked!

So, the infamous ultimatum was born.

That one ultimatum shattered Matthew and broke Diana’s heart.

“So, you broke off the engagement just because she made you choose between her and Sophie? And you picked Sophie?”

Dylan asked, his tone sharp with disbelief.

If that were really the case, Dylan felt that it would be downtight absurd.

But thankfully, Matthew wasn’t completely hopeless.

Matthew shook his head. “No, that’s not it, I didn’t agree to it, and I never intended to Even if the pulled that kind of stunt, the only fiancée I’ve ever have is her, and she’s the only one I’ll marry”

“Then what’s the real reason?” Dylan pressed, his eyes narrowing.

Matthew hesitated for a moment before speaking slowly “Because Father needed to save Benedict, and in all of Hasen City. only Eliza had the medicine that could save him.

“So Eliza set a condition, she wanted me to break off the engagement with Diana”
