91.Chapter 391 Eliza hated it when others threatened her so brazenly. She flung the annulment papers at Matthew and sneered, "Whatever, but I suggest you sign now before I change my mind out of sheer disgust for you and Sophie." She smiled faintly, but the expression was cold and devoid of any warmth.
Matthew's expression darkened immediately as the tables turned on him.

Matthew stared at the annulment papers, his jaw clenched tight as he tried to stall. "No pen? How am I supposed to sign anything without a- "Here" Before he could finish, the Black Flag captain behind Eliza stepped forward and handed him a pen with practiced efficiency, cutting off his excuse.
Matthew gritted his teeth in frustration. Snatching the pen from the captain's hand, he glared at him fiercely. "A pen without ink? How am I supposed to write with it?"

I won't hesitate anymore" With that, he let go of Sophie and, with trembling hands, signed his non the annulment papers.

"Matthew, you can think of what happened today asforcing you, but remember this. When you didn't choose Diana, you lost the right to deserve her." Matthew clenched his fists tightly when he heard that, his gaze dark and seething with fury, "Eliza, don't worry. I'll remember this." At the stime, he decided that one day, he would make Eliza pay for everything that happened today. Perhaps because Matthew ultimately chose her, Sophie was now basking in her smugness.

Eliza sneered, "Sorry, but I couldn't care less.” "A sister to a blind fool? Whoever wants that title can have it, Eliza thought She had no intention of warning Matthew about anything. Watching him spiral into ruin was far more satisfying for her, and forcing him to annul the engagement was merely the first step.
