The Lady Nun Seeks Justice (Eliza Stonor) novel Chapter 428

428.Chapter 428

Matthew was practically losing it as he grilled Dylan

Matthew thought. “Not again. First Diana, now Dylan.

‘From my fiancée to my

wown brother. Why is everyone doing this to me?”

“Tell me why! Matthew demanded.

Rage and a sense of betrayal swirled in Matthew’s eyes.

One by one, they were all abandoning him.

Matthew thought, “Did I do something wrong? Where did I screw up?

‘All I did was choose Sophie, who saved my life, over Eliza.

Is that really so wrong?”

Matthew wanted answers, but Dylan wasn’t giving him any.

“We can’t get through to you, Matthew, Dylan said.

“Can’t get through? Or you just don’t want to talk? You used to tell me everything, and now you’re saying we can’t communicate? Matthew challenged.

“What’s going on between us that we can’t talk about?” Matthew couldn’t wrap his head around it.

To him, Dylan was just coming up with excuses. He couldn’t accept it.

“Matthew, do you think I don’t want to talk? I’ve already told you so much, tried to reason with you over and over, but you’re the one who refuses to listen. You only hear what you want to hear, do what you want to do, and completely ignore

everyone else’s advice. So tell me, how am I supposed to get through to you? Enough, Matthew. Figure it out yourself.” With that, Dylan turned to leave.

But Matthew wasn’t about to let him go.

He grabbed Dylan’s arm and snapped, “You’re not leaving! Dylan, you’re not going anywhere until you explain yourself!”

Dylan thought, ‘Does he really think my patience is limitless?”

He instantly turned icy. He shot Matthew a cold glare and said, “Let go.”

“I won’t” Matthew clenched his teeth, his eyes locked on Dylan with unyielding determination.

Matthew clenched his teeth, his eyes locked on Dylan with unyielding determination.

Almost as soon as Matthew finished speaking, a heavy fist slammed down onto the table beside them.

“This is your last warning. Let me go.” Dylan was furious.

Matthew wasn’t intimidated in the slightest. The moment Dylan threw a punch, he shouted back furiously, “Oh, you wanna fight? Fine, bring it on!”

To him, it was just another scuffle. They’d had plenty of those growing up.

But when Dylan swung his fist again, this time aiming straight for his face.

Matthew’s eyes narrowed sharply.

Before he could even react, the punch landed squarely on his face,

The force of the blow sent Matthew’s head snapping to the side.

Dylan’s voice was cold and unyielding. “You wanted a beating? Well, here it is.”

Blood trickled from the corner of Matthew’s mouth. He wiped it away with the back of his hand, and upon seeing the crimson smear, he sneered bitterly, gritting his teeth. “Alright, let’s do this!”

The tension in the hut was suffocating, the air thick with hostility.

In the next moment, Dylan abruptly turned and stormed outside.

It wasn’t a retreat. It was a calculated move. “Get out here!” he barked.

He had no intention of letting his hut get wrecked in the process.

Her eyes narrowed slightly, and just as the fight seemed to be winding down, Sophie finally decided to make her move, Matthew, stop it already!”

Her voice quivered as she cried out, her eyes glistening with unshed tears. “Matthew, can’t you see? Dylan’s been holding back for your sake. He doesn’t want to hurt you. Just stop. There’s no point in dragging this out.”

Her words landed between the two brothers still locked in their fight.

Dylan frowned. Something about Sophie’s words felt off, but he couldn’t quite figure out what.

Just as he was trying to make sense of it, Matthew, standing across from him, suddenly snapped and threw a heavy punch that landed squarely on Dylan’s mouth.

The force of the punch was so strong it felt like it could’ve shattered his jaw.

Dylan thought, “Wait, has Matthew completely lost his mind?

When Dylan looked up at him, he saw Matthew glaring at him with eyes blazing with fury. Through gritted teeth, Matthew roared, “Dylan Stonor!”

A bad feeling instantly flashed through Dylan’s mind.

The next second, Matthew shouted, “Who the hell told you to hold back?

*Just because you were born a little earlier doesn’t make you better than mel Dylan, stop looking down on me with that fake, condescending attitude!

“If you dare hold back, I’ll beat you to death!”

Matthew’s fist slammed into Dylan’s chest again with a loud thud, making him stagger back and grit his teeth in pain.

Then, he realized that this was Sophie’s doing.

He thought, ‘Her again!

Those words she said earlier weren’t meant to calm Matthew down. They were deliberately meant to provoke him! Dylan shot Sophie a fierce glare before turning to Matthew and saying, “Calm down!”

“I can’t calm down!” Matthew was so consumed by rage that he couldn’t think straight. He spat out, “Fight me for real, or you’ll regret it

Matthew was so consumed by rage that he couldn’t think straight. He spat out, “Fight me for real, or you’ll regret it!” Matthew threatened, “If you dare hold back, come sunrise, I’ll go find Eliza and see how many punches she can take!” The moment those words left his mouth, Dylan’s expression darkened instantly
