Chapter 1356 

After taking two steps backward, Matthew drank his elixir before rushing into the room to find Lucy—who had the color drained from her face—unconscious on the floor.

Looking at the unconscious Lucy, he immediately ran to the window.

At this time, a man dressed in black had just descended onto the first floor with the rope Matthew found.

With his face covered up, the man met Matthew's eyes before turning around, and left with haste.

Without a shadow of a doubt, it was this man who had filled the room with poisonous gas from outside the window.

The man had filled the backroom with the poisonous gas as he thought Matthew would be the one entering the backroom.

Since the poison was virtually undetectable, Matthew would have been in a dangerous situation should he come in without caution.

However, out of the man's expectations, Lucy was the first one to enter the room.

Given that Lucy was not as capable as Matthew, she fell unconscious, as she was instantly affected by the poison.

Matthew was about to give chase but had heard Lucy groaning behind him.He turned to find Lucy— with her hands around her neck—with a pained expression.
