Chapter 80

Sophie spoke on and on, but Eliza ignored her.

Seeing her disregard for everyone, Matthew, who was already in a bad mood, immediately darkened his face. "What's wrong? Now that you've left home, have you learned to play mute?"

"Matthew Benedict scolded Matthew. He asked him to restrain his temper.

Dylan looked at Eliza in the middle of the medicinal garden. He was no longer as impulsive as before. On the contrary, it was Matthew who was becoming more and more like he used to be.

Matthew once again lost his temper. "Eliza, don't push your luck....

Eliza retorted just as sharply, "I don't need your charity! Do us all a favor and lose the condescending attitude of yours. No one here wants it."
