351.Chapter 351
Matthew had been so furious he nearly cursed out loud, but Diana''s actions were always faster than his words. Dodging her strikes, he couldn''t help but seriously question her intentions. ''This crazy woman. She''s just looking for an excuse to whip me!
''Yeah, right. Her main goal is to hit me!''
"Diana! If you don''t stop right now, don''t me me for not holding back!"
"You think thisdy is afraid of you?" With a swift kick, Diana sent him flying several meters. Matthewnded on the ground roughly.
Standing tall, Diana tilted her chin up and smirked coldly. "Come on, try me. Let''s see if you can take me down, or if I end up breaking every bone in your useless body!"
"You''re a lunatic!" Matthew spat, scrambling to his feet. "How long are you going to back Eliza and her nonsense?" Matthew shouted angrily.
Diana cracked her whip without hesitation. "What nonsense are you talking about? I came back to settle the score! Today, either you die, or that bastard girl you''re shielding does."
"Fine! Don''t me me for not holding back." Matthew cursed under his breath and lunged forward without hesitation.

Matthew was quick and agile, but Diana matched him move for move.
Years ago, the Baker family witnessed the Padi family''s tragic downfall firsthand. Unlike the Stonor family, who stood by and did nothing, Diana''s grandpa immediately sent help upon hearing the news. But it was toote. The Padi estate was already drenched in blood, corpses scattered everywhere.
That harrowing sight left a deep impression on the Baker family, and they resolved to change how they raised their children. They began emphasizing academics and martial arts, ensuring their next generations could protect themselves. They adopted a two-pronged approach for the next generation.
Unexpectedly, while Diana didn''t inherit her family''s talent for academics, she was a natural in martial arts. As a child, she often fought with the Stonor twins. She''d beat Dn, then Matthew. Even Benedict wasn''t spared from her punches now and then.
In short, aside from Eliza and the frequently ill Anthony, none of the brothers had ever escaped her fists. Facing Matthew again, her skills had undoubtedly improved over the years.
Their fight spilled from the Duke''s estate onto the bustling streets, drawing a crowd. After dozens of exchanges, Matthew was left with swollen eyes and lips, while Diana walked away with barely a scratch.
Of course, perhaps Matthew was holding back against Diana. But even if he was, he had iting.
When Diananded yet another punch squarely on Matthew''s face, he finally couldn''t take it anymore. He stumbled back several steps, putting some distance between them. "Alright, alright! Can you stop aiming for my face? Is this how you treat your fiancé?" Matthew protested, his voice full of frustration.
Diana pulled back her fist and whip, ring at him with fiery eyes. "You''ve got some nerve saying that word. I guess you''ve lost all sense of shame that you dare to run your mouth before me!"
Grinding his teeth, Matthew shouted, "Diana, no matter how close you are to Eliza, you still need to be reasonable! Do you even know why she became a nun?"
"I don''t care why! All I know is that you and your brothers had made her suffer!" Diana snapped. She crossed her arms defiantly, making it clear she wasn''t interested in being reasonable.
"You!" Matthew, who had been beaten, was furious. He clenched his fists in anger, ring at her. "You''re beingpletely unreasonable! If anyone here doesn''t know how to talk properly, it''s you!"
Diana snorted coldly. "You''re the one stupid enough to believe that little bitch''s maniption!" Diana wasn''t stupid. On her way to Hasen City, she had already sent people to investigate everything thoroughly. She knew exactly how they had mistreated Eliza.
Whether she was being reasonable or not, she would stand by Eliza''s side.
Besides, when had Diana ever been reasonable? She had always been the type to stand by her loved ones, no matter what.
