The moment Dylan spoke, the atmosphere in the room immediately grew tense. Sophie’s expression froze for a moment.

She clenched her hands tightly under the table, her impatience with Dylan growing by the second.

He really is an idiot. Last time, that bitch nearly got him killed, and now he’s starting to care about her again? Has Dylan lost his mind? The more Eliza hates him, the more he rushes to please her? she thought to herself.

Aside from Dylan, Benedict was the first to react, pausing for a moment before he spoke. “Today is indeed Eliza’s birthday

Benedict ΓΕ showed a mix

a mix of emotions, and a sudden pang of guilt arose within him.

If Dylant brought it up, Benedict would have almost forgotten about it.

Matthew frowned, clearly displeased. “Dylan, why are you suddenly bringing her up? She’s not even a member of the Stonor family anymore. Why does her birthday concern us”

Anthony picked up his water and took a slow sip, not speaking.

Benedict remembered the indifference Eliza had shown before and turned to look at their father, who sat at the head of the table. “Father, even though Eliza is no longer a Stonor family member, she is still our sister. Perhaps we should visit her at Saint Grace Nunnery!

Benedict thought back to the time when they had celebrated Sophie’s coming–of–age ceremony. They shouldn’t neglect Eliza’s, especially since they had celebrated it for Sophie

Gabriel, whose expression remained neutral, lazily lifted an eyelid. He glanced at Benedict and Dylan, both of whom were Jooking at him expectantly.

Although Gabriel didn’t want to agree, Benedict’s words caused him to hesitate for a moment. After all, these four sons and Eliza were siblings by blood. If he were too harsh, they might grow resentful of him in the future.

Gabriel furrowed his brow, pondering for only a couple of seconds, then nodded indifferently. “Fine. I’ll go to the palace shortly to see if His Majesty will make an exception”

After Dylan’s previous incident, the people at the Duke’s estate, including Sophie, were all under orders not to enter Saint Grace Nunnery. If they were to visit Eliza, they would need the king’s permission first.

Benedict and Dylan’s faces lit up with joy

With their father’s support, the king would surely grant their request.

Meanwhile, Sophie, on the other hand, was seething with rage, nearly grinding her teeth in frustration. She had not expected Gabriel to actually agree.

Eliza should just die. As long as she’s alive, the Stonor family will always be thinking about her. Who knows, one day, these men might decide to bring her bark. What will I do then?”
