Diana let out a cold laugh. "Why can't I? When I had your back in fights, did I ever hold back? Funny, you never complained then, but now you suddenly have grown a conscience?" Matthew was left speechless once again.

She waved him off dismissively. "Alright, enough with this nonsense. I know you're just here to stick up for that bitch, scared I'll teach her a lesson. Fine by me. I'm not here to argue with you anyway. Let's make it simple. Are you taking one beating for her today, or two? "Once today's over, there's always tomorrow. Every single day I'm in Hasen City, I'll make sure to give that bitch a beating." Matthew's face turned red with anger. "I told you to stop saying that, Diana! Are you deaf? Sophie didn't even do anything wrong. What gives you the right to hit her?" "Because I damn well feel like it." Diana snapped, "Letmake this clear. Anyone who dares to mess with Liza will deal with me!" Matthew was furious. "What's that supposed to mean? Are you planning to take on everyone in the Duke's estate?" Diana let out a cold laugh, her tone dripping with sarcasm. "Oh, you're admitting that everyone in the Duke's estate has been bullying Liza, huh?" She slapped the whip against her palm, her icy gaze sweeping over Matthew and Benedict. Finally, she sneered, "Well, you guessed right. You, you, Dylan, Anthony, and that bitch. Line up. I'll deal with you all one by one." "I mean, Benedict is too old forto bother with, but the rest of you? Don't even think about getting away." Matthew was livid at her arrogance. "Diana, don't push your luck!" "I'll be as arrogant as I damn well please!" Diana shot him a sharp glare, clearly done with the argument. "I've said enough for today, so letask one last thing- "Is that bitch coming out to take her beating or not?" "Cough, cough..."

Stirring up trouble again? Don't tellshe's gone after Liza!" "No, no, that's not it... cough, cough, cough..." Benedict waved his hands frantically, coughing so hard he struggled to catch his breath.
After a moment, he finally explained, "She didn't go looking for Eliza. There was an incident at the palace banquet, and both she and my dad ended up locked in the Ministry of Justice's cells." "Locked up in the Ministry of Justice?" Diana narrowed her eyes slightly. Her tone was cold. "That doesn't sound like just a minor incident." She sneered. "What, did that bitch do something so disgraceful that she dragged him down with her?"
