"I've never pitied you.” | lowered my eyes and said in a small whisper, "I just feel bad for you.”
Matthew sneered. "That means you pity me, no?"

take good care of you. Plus, there's also Theo and Tyler. | won't be of much help, so | guess | don't have a reason

After | entered the villa, | noticed the funeral items placed in the living room and felt solemn.
The servant realized that Matthew had returned and started to prepare dinner while the two of us went to the
living room to sit on the sofa.
"Marcus loved her so much, but how much did she love my father?" Matthew suddenly asked.
Only Quinn would know the answer to this question.
