383.Chapter 383

The moment Eliza said those words, Gabriel’s face turned as dark as a thundercloud.

Matthew swung his fist and slammed it against the gate with a loud “bang, his eyes filled with a menacing glare. “What did you just say? Say it again if you’ve got the guts!

Seeing Gabriel and Matthew wearing identical expressions of fury and their resemblance became even more striking, Eliza sneered mwardly

Like father, like son, indeed

To think she shared the same disqunting bloodline–it was utterly revolting

Elza lazily lifted her eyelids and said, “If your hearing in failing with age, Lord Mowbay, I don’t mind repeating myself”

She didn’t even spare Matthew a glance, her sharp words nimed squarely at Gabriel

Her complete disregard for Matthew was like throwing gasoline on a fire, making his fury explode.

“Eliza! Are you trying to get yourself killed? Matthew instinctively reached for his dagger, but before he could draw it, a sharp and oppressive aura of killing intent swept down from above.

Gabriel and Matthew immediately sensed the danger and looked up. To their shock, a shadowy figure had silently appeared on the rooftop behind Eliza

Tina stood there, her long sword gleaming coldly in her hand. Her frosty gaze pierced through the mask, silently warning them, make a move on anyone here, and it’ll be the last thing you do

Having already experienced Tina’s terrifying skills, both Gabriel and Matthew couldn’t help but show a flicker of fear on their

Gabriel withdrew his gaze and gestured for Matthew to stay quiet. Then, with a calm expression, he turned to Eliza. “I may be old, but my hearing is still sharp. Honestly, I wish it wasn’t, after hearing such cold and heartless words from you.” Eliza let out a faint scoff, her eyes indifferent.

Renee stepped forward silently and poured her a fresh cup of coffee.

Gabriel’s gaze lingered on Eliza. “It’s been years since you left everything behind. Can’t we just sit down and have a proper conversation for once?”

“Sit down and have a proper conversation? Eliza murmured his words, her lips curling into a sarcastic smile. “Don’t you think thats the most ridiculous thing you’ve ever said, my… oh–so–loving father?

“Everything that’s happened between me and the rest of the Stonor family–wasn’t it all part of your grand plan? Or are you really trying to claim that the all–powerful Duke of Mowbay couldn’t even manage the relationships between his own

“You didn’t bother to step in because you were playing a masterful game of strategy. And when the game ended, the pieces you didn’t need anymore were simply discarded For someone like you, who only cares about power and profit, it’s only natural to sweep away the useless ones, isn’t it?

“And the first piece to be swept away was, of course, me–the one who’s utterly useless to you and even stands in the way of your beloved daughter. After all, as long as I’m alive, your illegitimate daughter will always remain illegitimate. So, under your careful scheming, I was supposed to die long ago, wasn’t 17

Matthew, standing by the door, frowned slightly at her words, while Gabriel narrowed his eyes.

“Eliza I don’t know who’s been filling your head with these ideas, or maybe I’ve made mistakes in the past. But to think I’d ever harm you–how could you believe that? I’m your father

Don’t use that title in front of me”

A flicker of unease rose in Gabriel’s heart. He couldn’t shake the feeling that Eliza had uncovered something, but the more wary he became, the more he wanted to stabilize the situation Yet Eliza cut him off without hesitation.

She looked at him coldly “You gave up the right to call yourself that a long time ago

“Eliza! Watch your tone! Even if you’re the Holy Lady now, you can’t change the fact that you are his daughter Don’t forget- you carry the Stonor family’s blood! Matthew sold

“Who says that can’t change?” Eliza ser You still havent made your choice. So, who

Back to square one Gabriels gaze turned icy
