The Silent 411 411.Chapter 411 "The Hall of Eternity? What kind of place is that?" Sophie asked, her tone filled with curiosity) Sophie asked her tone filled with curiosity Matthew shook his head. I'm not entirely sure. A friend mentioned it to me. Apparently, they have this medicine called the Immortality Pills. It's said to bring people back from the brink of death and heal even the gravest injuries. But it's ridiculously expensive and nearly impossible to get 11 "Impossible to get? For us? Don't be absurd "Sophie scoffed, clearly unimpressed by the idea of something being out of their reach After all, she was a member of the Duke's estate. In Hasen City, she didn't think there would be anything they couldn't get their hands on Matthew sighed. "We're out of options anyway.

The moment the question left her lips, Matthew's face darkened, his expression turning icy.
"No," he replied curtly. "And don't bring her up again." Sophie immediately caught the chill in his tone. She bit her lip lightly and lowered her head, a flicker of annoyance flashing in her eyes.
But her face showed only guilt and sorrow as she said, "I'm sorry, Matthew. It's all my fault. If it weren't for me... "Enough. I don't want to hear it anymore" Matthew interrupted, his patience wearing thin, He'd heard this sexcuse too many times. It was starting to wear him down.
Ever since he signed the annulment papers, he'd regretted agreeing to end the engagement so easily But he couldn't just turn his back on Sophie. She was still his sister.
Over time, though, a seed of resentment had taken root in his heart, one he couldn't quite suppress.
