Chapter 94
Just as Matthew’s hand was about to touch the door of Eliza’s room, he suddenly felt a chill down his spine. He turned around abruptly and threw a punch behind him.
It was only at the moment their fists and feet collided that Matthew could see the person behind him clearly.
However, it was not entirely accurate to say that he could see clearly, because the other party was dressed in black. Except for a pair of eyes, everything else blended perfectly into the night.
“Who are you?” Matthew demanded sharply,
Tina Page put an index finger to her lips and whispered, “Be quiet. Don’t wake her up.”
As soon as she finished speaking, the sword in her hand came out, and in the next second, it went straight towards Matthew’s forehead.
Matthew was instantly enraged. “If you don’t speak, I won’t be polite!”
He slipped a dagger from his sleeve and brandished it, deflecting Tina’s longsword with a clang. In an instant, the two began to fight in Eliza’s courtyard.
The next day, as Eliza rubbed her sleepy eyes and opened the door to her room, she froze at the sight of the wreckage in her courtyard.
“What… what happened?” Overnight, her courtyard was as if it had been ravaged by a beast, everything was broken and tattered.
Even her two herb gardens were destroyed.
“I’m sorry, Serenity. I failed to restrain him last night, and that’s why your courtyard ended up like this.” Eliza heard the voice and turned to see Tina standing beside a bound Matthew.
Eliza’s face turned cold in an instant and she questioned him, “What were you doing breaking into my courtyard last night?”
Matthew scoffed disdainfully, turning his head away as he planned to keep his mouth shut.
Tina, who was standing at the side, took out two things. “These were found on him.”
It was a dagger and a bottle of medicine.
Eliza’s
eyes paused on the dagger for a moment, then she looked at the bottle of medicine that was clearly suspicious.
After taking it, she cautiously didn’t open it to look at it but gave Matthew a warning look.
She smiled at Tina. “It’s alright, Tina. You don’t have to blame yourself, but I should thank you. Thanks to you being here last night, otherwise I don’t know what would have happened. You watch him here for me. I’ll go and ask mentor what this medicine is.”
“Okay.”
Shortly after, Eliza returned with Mary. At the same time, her face was filled with rage. Upon her return, she didn’t hesitate to slap Matthew hard across the face.
The slap caught Matthew completely off guard. “Eliza! Are you crazy?”

Eliza threw the medicine bottle at his feet, furious. “Whether I’m the one who’s crazy or you are, you know it in your heart! Do you think I don’t know what’s in it just because you won’t say anything?
“A bewilderment drug? A hallucinogen? Or an obedience drug? Which name sounds good enough? Tell me!”
When Eliza learned about the effects of this thing from Mary, she couldn’t believe her ears.
Matthew was her biological brother, after all. Even though she is no longer a member of the Stonor family, she grew up with them.
It was crazy that Matthew thought of breaking into his sister’s room in the middle of the night and drug her.
Hearing Eliza’s words, a rare look of guilt flashed across Matthew’s face.
Eliza sneered. “I didn’t expect that the high and mighty son of the Duke’s estate would resort to such despicable means!”
