Anthony didn't know what had happened. He thought, 'Has Matthew been discovered while drugging Eliza? But if he had been discovered, why was there no news until now?'

Just as Anthony was considering whether to send someone to Saint Grace Nunnery to check on the situation, Matthew finally returned.

It was pitch black outside. When Matthew returned, Anthony was about to go to bed.

The page boy heard the knock on the door. "Who is it?"

"It's me, Matthew." Anthony, who was about to lie down, immediately stopped and asked the page boy to open the door.

After entering the room, Matthew said to the page boy, "You can go now. I have something to say to Anthony."

Of course, the page boy didn't go down directly. Instead, he glanced at Anthony for a moment before turning around, and considerately closing the door.

"Matthew, why did it take you so long to come back? Where's Eliza? Didn't you bring her back? "After putting on his clothes, Anthony sat down by the bed and asked first.

Matthew's eyes glazed over for a moment, then returned to normal, and he followed the voice in his head and replied, "That night, when I went to Saint Grace Nunnery to make my move, a man in black suddenly appeared in Eliza's courtyard. I fought with him, and then the man in black ran away. I chased after him, but unfortunately, I couldn't catch him."

"A man in black? Was he already in Eliza's courtyard? Or was he like you, going to Eliza to do something to her?" Anthony didn't notice Matthew's strangeness. He just frowned slightly and asked in puzzlement.

Matthew said with a straight face, "He should be the same as me, but I don't know what he wanted to do to Eliza."

Anthony said indifferently, "I guess maybe it's because Eliza has offended too many people."

Matthew didn't reply. His unusual silence tonight made Anthony give him a strange look.
