Benedict's voice rang out, sharp and commanding, cutting through the tension in the room. He fixed Matthew with a cold, piercing glare. "Matthew, shut your mouth! If you have even a shred of gratitude for what Mother did to raise you, then keep your mouth shut. Not another word!"

Matthew opened his mouth to speak, but Dylan's earlier words echoed in his mind.

Dylan clenched his fists, his voice icy and unyielding. "Matthew, if you dare defend her, one of us isn't leaving this room alive."

In the end, Matthew closed his eyes and turned his head away.

And with that, Sophie's last glimmer of hope was extinguished.

He said, "Sophie, you shouldn't have done that."
