Matthew said, "Diana, I never thought you were the type to sell yourself out for wealth and status, such a vain woman

As soon as Matthew finished speaking, Diana slapped him hard,

She struck without mercy.

That slap shattered whatever was left of her feelings for Matthew.

Diana said, "Matthew, think about the opportunities I gave you. Out of all the choices, did you ever choose men

"So the next time you try to hurt me with these words, remember-it was you who gave up on me, just like you abandoned Liza. You always chose Sophie. So if anyone deserves your anger, it should be her. As for us, we have nothing left to do with each other."

Diana turned to leave, but Matthew wasn't going to let her go that easily.

He immediately stepped in front of her, arms wide, and said, "Wait, Diana. Back then, I didn't understand what you meant by choice. If I had known, I would've..."
