431.Chapter 431

Dylan and Matthew were both battered, their faces and bodies covered in cuts and bruises

Compared to Matthew, Dylan's injuries were noticeably lighter.

After resting briefly, Dylan pushed himself off the ground and stood up.

He glanced at Sophie and Matthew and asked curtly, "How long are you staying?"

Sophie and Matthew exchanged a quick look at his question.

Matthew spoke up first, "Sophie twisted her ankle, no she needs time to recover. Probably about a month."

Since Dylan had finally relented and agreed to let them stay, Matthew figured it was safer to ask for a longer duration.

A month should be enough time to complete the task their father had assigned.

Matthew cautiously mentioned a month, but Dylan's expression remained unreadable. He neither agreed nor disagreed.

Dylan's gaze shifted to the sides of the thatched hut. After a moment, he said, "I'll put up two more rooms.

A month wasn't too long, but it wasn't exactly short either.

With only one room in the hut, it was clear it wouldn't be enough for the three of them.

Building two simple additional rooms seemed like the best solution. It wouldn't take much time or effort.

Even after Matthew and Sophie left, Dylan could still make use of the extra rooms.

With that thought in mind, Dylan added, "There's some dry grass piled up behind the house. Once you've rested, take it out to dry in the sun. I'll go buy some wood,"

After speaking, he turned to head inside to grab some money for purchasing timber from a nearby village.
