Boom! As soon as Ross finished speaking, Nolan smashed the table beside him with one palm, his face full of anger.
“You!” Matthew, who had been beaten, was also furious, and immediately fought back with Dylan.
The two of them were in the iron cage, the small space not even big enough to dodge. Punch after punch, they mercilessly struck each other.
It wasn’t long before both of their faces were bruised and swollen.
The situation here was intense, but Eliza didn’t even look at them. She kept her head down, concentrating on preparing the herbs in her hands.
By the time they were tired from fighting, the medicine in Eliza’s hand was ready.
It was not a pill, but a bottle of medicinal liquid with a very strange smell.
After packing up, Eliza got up and walked outside the iron cage, her eyes sweeping over Dylan and Matthew one by one.
Matthew twitched the corner of his mouth, and the pain made him gasp. He then grabbed the iron cage and looked at Eliza outside. “Eliza, I know what you want to do.
“You just want to take revenge on me for ruining your medicine field. I have no choice but to admit defeat since I have fallen into your hands. Just name your price, how much money do you want to let me out?”
“Money?” Eliza looked down at Matthew and sneered. “Why would you think I would let you go?”
Matthew snorted disdainfully. “What else? Are you going to keep me here forever? Even if you wanted to, you wouldn’t be able to. Father will find me soon, and by then, you won’t be able to make any demands.”
Eliza rubbed the medicine bottle in her hand, her expression a mixture of amusement and mockery. “Oh, is that so? Do you want to bet on it?”
“Bet on what?” Matthew frowned.

Eliza continued, “Some people starve to death after seven days without food, while others take longer, a whole month. So, Lord Matthew, you can bet with
we that your father can find you within this month.”
Matthew was very confident. He said, “I don’t need to bet for a month, just seven days.”
Gabriel knew everything about Hasen City, so Matthew believed that his father would be able to find him soon.
Dylan, who was standing by the side, opened his mouth but didn’t say anything in the end.
Eliza smiled playfully. “Alright. Since Lord Matthew is so confident, let’s bet on seven days.”
“Hold on. You haven’t told me what the wager is yet. If there’s nothing interesting at stake, why should I waste my time here?” Matthew asked.
“Of course there is a wager.” Eliza smiled faintly. “The winner can ask for something from the loser, or ask for something of equal value. What do you think of this wager?”
Matthew replied, “Not bad.”

Matthew was worrying about how to coerce Eliza, and now an opportunity presented itself.

Then Matthew immediately said, “if I win, you must apologize to Sophie in person and clarify the rumors in Hasen City”
“Sure, if you can win.” Eliza said with a smile. “But if I win, I want something that belongs to you.”
“What?” Matthew was taken aback.
Eliza said, “Stone Sea Manor. The one you have.”
Matthew’s expression changed instantly. “Are you crazy? How greedy can you be? It wasn’t enough to take Solacecrest Manor and the Oriphoenix Building, and now you want my Stone Sea Manor?”
