Get Spoiled after Travelling into A Novel

Chapter 226 The Stubborn Matthew Milly's words momentarily stunned Matthew.

She had a point.

Not just in the past, but even now, he approached her with an agenda. He never truly considered her hist sister.

But his pride stopped him from admitting it. After a prolonged silence, he muttered, "Why are your making such a big deal out of this? We're all Burnetts. Does it really matter?" Milly was perplexed.

She couldn't help but let out a bitter laugh. What kind of twisted reasoning is this? Earlier, he was so self-righteous, claiming I'm unworthy of the Burnett name. Now suddenly, we're all family and I shouldn't harbor resentment? He wants to have it both ways-praising and criticizingat will. What else is there forto say? With a sardonic smile, she retorted, her voice slicing through the faint light, “Matthew, even though you're an artist and not big on logical thinking, you should grasp basic human relationships. We're not close enough for gift-giving and late-night heart-to-hearts, are we?" Matthew's anger flared. "How dare you- Milly shrugged, meeting his gaze coolly. "Look at you, quick to accuseagain. You do realize what you've done could get you in trouble, right? Ever heard of trespassing? Sure, Matthew was her brother, but sneaking into someone's room uninvited was, at best, unethical, and at worst, illegal. She had a doctorate in her past life; if she chose to pursue it, she could easily involve the authorities.

Let's see then who the Burnetts would stand behind thenor him.

Matthew's face turned a fiery shade of red; his breaths were coming out in sharp bursts, his teeth audibly grinding. His eyes burned with a rage that seemed capable of consuming Milly.

Milly remained unfazed. Dealing with an art student like him in a confrontation was well within her capabilities. Seeing his intense fury oddly satisfied her. She casually sat down at the table and poured herself a cup of tea.

Setting aside everything else, the tea at this monastery was exceptional. It carried the fragrance of bamboo leaves, filling the room.

Green tea was the perfect choice for this moment; it was known to calm anger.

Matthew was already livid, and watching her calmly sip tea only stoked his ire further! The upcoming international design competition focused on 'Buddhist robes, which was why he had reluctantly agreed to attend this monastery event for inspiration.

Seeing Milly triggered a flood of ideas, as if a dam had burst.

He couldn't explain it, but it was as if he were under a spell.

For any other competition, he wouldn't have been so serious; he wouldn't have swallowed his pride and cto Milly in the dead of night. The issue was that when the organiser announced the list of contestents, he realised that his old rival, King, was also participating in this competition.

Who was King, you say? King was the archenemy who always snatched victory from him whenever they competed! His animosity towards King knew no bounds. Compared to defeating King, bowing to Milly was a trivial matter! All he cared about was triumphing over King and shedding the perpetual runner-up labell The thought eased his mind slightly. He looked away, determined not to lose control and break the cup she held in her hand. "So, what do I need to do to get you to sit down and talk with me?" Milly was surprised. Looking up, she regarded him with a mix of astonishment and curiosity.

Given Matthew's infamous temper, she had anticipated him storming out angrily after her remarks.

Yet here he was, showing willingness to back down....

He must want something from me. Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

Heh, this is interesting.

The usually proud Matthew is actually seeking my assistance.

Sipping her tea, Milly felt her spirits lift. "Matthew, watch your words. When you need something from someone, it's polite to start with 'please." Matthew clenched his fists, frustration evident in his eyes. "Fine. Please set down your tea cup. Tellwhat I need to do for you to talk to me." Milly was speechless.

What was I expecting? Artists never think in conventional ways! "Do you not grasp basic social etiquette? It should be: Please tellwhat I need to do for you to talk to me." Matthew gave her a cold look, as if grudgingly granting a rare favor. "Fine. I can talk to you." Milly was stunned.

What the hell!!? I main't asking you! 2/3 Chapter 226 The Stubborn Matthew Taking a deep breath, Milly gestured towards the door. "Last chance, Get out, knock, and wait forto let you in before entering again!" To her surprise, Matthew didn't argue and obediently left. Three seconds later, a knock sounded at the door.

Milly rolled her eyes, swiftly locking the bolt and lying down on her bed, pretending to sleep.

Let him knock. I'm not going to open the door. Now that I managed to get him out, I can finally get ssleep! But five minutes later, she regretted her decision.

The knocking had turned into pounding. It wasn't just knocking anymore; it sounded like someone was using a brick! Milly felt a headache coming on.

Seeing the door shaking as if it might break soon, Milly couldn't take it anymore. She swung the door Sure enough, there stood Matthew, impassive, pounding on the door with a brick.

open.

"Are you insane? Are you trying to break down the door?"

Seeing that Milly finally opened the door. Matthew dropped the brick, crossed his arms, and said "bm knocked for a few minutes. When you didn't respond. I thought you couldn't hear me, so I used the brick to make sure you did. I didn't want to waste time." Milly didn't know what to say.

Is he doing this on purpose? He must be doing this on purpose! Coming to Ο my room under the guise of OTPI delivering something just to drivecrazy! Can't he just be normal for once?! Gritting her teeth in frustration, she realized there was nothing she could do.

She lamented her fate and rubbed her forehead. I must be crazy to Why am even engaging him in the middle of the night? It's only shortening my lifespan. Finally, she opened the door wide, exasperated. "Stop knocking. Just cin already!" X
