Freya turned around to leave, but Matthew grabbed her wrist.

She turned around and saw that Matthew’s expression was unusually serious.

“I know you don’t believe me. It’s normal for you not to believe me given my reputation.”

Matthew reached into his pocket and took out a velvet box.

It was a very old-fashioned jewelry box.

Matthew opened it solemnly.

A diamond ring lay in the velvet box.

“This was left to me by my grandmother. It’s her only heirloom.”

His gaze was firm, and his usually carefree face showed nervousness and anticipation.

“Freya, after spending so much time together, I have truly fallen in love with you. I hope you can give me a chance to prove my love for you.”

After saying this, Matthew smiled. “Haven’t you noticed that I haven’t caused any scandals since we’ve been together?”

A gentle breeze carried the fragrance of flowers in the garden. Freya quietly clenched her hand; she could see Matthew’s caution.

Although he had a smile on his face, his gaze was determined.

Freya pursed her lips and spoke seriously.

“Matthew, to me, you are my brother’s best friend and also my friend. I don’t want to be someone who drags things out, nor do I want to give you false hope. I don’t have romantic feelings for you.”

Matthew’s hand holding the box turned slightly pale, but his expression remained unchanged. “Frey, feelings can be cultivated slowly. If you think I’m not a bad person-”

Freya frowned and interrupted Matthew. “We’ve known each other for so long. If there were real feelings, they would have already developed.”

The path was quiet, and Matthew lowered his gaze.

A few seconds later, he smiled bitterly. “So, do you have romantic feelings for Radley?”

Freya trembled slightly; a hint of panic flashed across her face.
