430.Chapter 430


    Sophie red at him, her tone sharp. "Fine? You call this fine? If you keep this up, Matthew, I won''t bother with you next time!"


    "Alright, alright, I was wrong. I''ll listen to you, Sophie Matthew immediately apologized, a smile tugging at his lips After speaking, he turned slightly to nce at Dn,


    His casual demeanor seemed to say, "See, this is the path I''ve chosen."


    What Matthew failed to notice was the storm brewing in Dn''s heart.


    Matthew was already too deeply entangled to see the truth.


    But Dn, now fully awake to the lies, saw everything with piercing rity


    As Sophie yed the role of the caring sister, Dn observed from a distance. Beneath her mask of concern, he caught fleeting glimpses of disdain.


    When Matthew made his final promise, the contempt in Sophie''s eyes was so tant it was almost impossible to miss


    But the moment she sensed Dn''s gaze and looked up, all traces of that disdain vanished.


    What remained was a facade of care and worry, so convincing it could almost pass as genuine.


    "Is something wrong, Dn?" Sophie looked at him cautiously, her eyes filled with


    a mix of confusion and guardedness Meeting her gaze, Dn felt a wave of disgust chur in his stomach.


    The sight of Matthew beingpletely deceived by her made Dn''s expression darker.


    Looking at Matthew''s face, so much like his own, Dn felt a bitter pang of recognition. It was like staring at a reflection of his former self.


    He thought, “Haven''t I once been just as blind, ensnared by Sophie''s sugar- coated lies?


    Back then, under the guise of her sweet maniptions, he had done so many things that hurt Eliza.


    And now, Matthew was just like Dn back then.


    Matthew''s situation was even worse. He''d fallen deeper and been yed even harder.


    If no one stepped in to pull Matthew out of this mess, if Dn truly gave up on him today, then Matthew would be beyond saving.


    A flicker of pain andpassion shed in Dn''s eyes.


    He couldn''t just give up on Matthew.


    "Matthew," Dn suddenly called out.


    Matthew turned his head sharply, pausing for a moment. "What is it?"


    After a brief silence, Dn spoke slowly, "Things are already a mess today. Just stay here, get your injuries sorted, and then leave."


    Matthew froze for a second, his mind racing. Then, his face lit up as he turned to Sophie.


    Sophie was just as surprised


    She had assumed that after such a fierce fight, Dn would definitely insist on kicking them out.


    She had even nned to use their injuries as an excuse to dy their departure. But unexpectedly, Dn had taken the initiative to suggest it himself.


    She thought, "Weird. Is he feeling guilty for beating his brother up so badly earlier?


    ''Then why did he fight so fiercely in the first ce? What a lunatic."


    Unable to make sense of it, Sophie cursed inwardly but quickly put on a cheerful expression. "That''s great, Matthew! You can stay here with Dn for now."


    Matthew''s initial joy froze on his face upon hearing this. He was about to say something when Dn added, "Sophie, you stay too. Help look after Matthew"


    Matthew and Sophie were genuinely stunned.


    Sessfully unlocked!


    What they didn''t realize was that Dn had alrebu...


    ms up and sought, ''Instead of letting Sophie go, it''s bette to keep her close, right under my nose. That way, I''ll know exactly what kind of trouble she''s stirring up


    "I can stop her from hurting Eliza and make sure she doesn''t trick Matthew again. When the timees, I''ll expose her true colors in front of Matthew and ensure she never fools anyone ever again!
