He has already been displeased with me recently.

If I wanted to act, it had to be at the perfect moment.

'Besides, I still need to squeeze every last bit of value out of Matthew. Otherwise,

"What? No, of course not! That's not what I meant at all Matthew, who had been startled by her earlier gaze, quickly softened when he saw her tearful expression. "It's my fault! I must've been seeing things earlier. I'm sorry, Sophie. Please, don't cry, okay?"

"No, Sophie, that's not it." Matthew didn't expect Sophie to think like this. He panicked immediately, and the strange feeling that had risen in his heart just now disappeared in an instant

He hurriedly coaxed, "Don't say that. Diana is always like this. She hit you because of me."

The more Matthew spoke, the sadder he became.

Just as he coaxed Sophie, the second sentence became to speak for Diana.

Sophie immediately frowned.
