"Darling!" Upon the realization, Zoey didn't care about the rest but immediately turned to Matthew. "Don't eat it!" She hollered in urgency, trying to stop him from eating.
However, Matthew didn't stop and continued on eating. Everyone around the table including Zoey watched him in disbelief. Ivan's reaction was too wholesome as he covered his wide open mouth, watching this noble person eat the poison willingly.
"The chefs were out this morning. This is the only breakfast prepared for everyone." As Matthew sensed their intent gaze at him, he paused and raised his head. "There are millions of people dying of starvation, don't disrespect those people by wasting food prepared for you." He added, his tone commanding as ever before he continued to eat the soup.
