Chapter 2622 The Quarrel Before the Cruise

Overwhelmed by the warm invitation of the Stubber father and son, Matthew eventually agreed to have dinner with them.

"Matthew, you don't sound like a local here," Isambard asked during the meal, trying to make conversation. Matthew simply evaded the question. "Indeed, I'm not a local. I've come from out of town.
