Eliza could not help but laugh. “I was on a long trip this time. It’s only natural that Mary would worry. And Sarah, if you ever go away. I’m sure Mary will worry about you too,

Mary, who was holding her hand and leading her forward, didn’t say anything. She simply repeated a thought silently in ber heart. It’s different. I’ll worry about Sarah, but my worry for Serenity is different.

Ever since Caroline’s death, Mary hadn’t experienced emotions like this during the time Eliza had been away.

That pot of nourishing soup was quite large, and Mary made sure to be fair. After serving Eliza a generous portion, she divided the rest among the others.

Eliza sipped the soup, her face glowing with a smile. “Thank you, Mary. This soup is really delicious”

Tm glad you like it. I used to make this soup for your mother all the time. She always said my soup was her favorite” Mary said, her face lighting up with a gentle smile as she spoke of Eliza’s mother.

But in her eyes, there was a hint of sorrow, barely noticeable.

Eliza fell silent for a moment, not saying anything.

“Hey, why did I bring up such a sad topic again? Sorry for that.” Mary quickly realized the mood had shifted and looked at Eliza apologetically.

Caroline’s death had been a source of deep pain for Mary, but it was an even deeper sorrow for Eliza. After all, Caroline had been her mother.

Mary reached out and gently patted Eliza’s head. “Good girl, why not tell me about your trip to Plutonville? I’ve never been there.”

“Sure.” Seeing Mary trying to cheer her up, Eliza agreed and began to recount her journey.

Before long, she had Mary utterly horrified. Mary had no idea that Eliza’s sudden invitation to Plutonville was part of a larger plot

The whole journey had been riddled with assassination attempts, including one involving some foreign youth skilled in controlling insects and poison.

“His name is Gilbert, right? Alright, I’ve got it. If he dares to show up at Saint Grace Nunnery, I’ll deal with him myself,” Mary shouted, slamming her fist on the table in anger.

Mary nearly stormed over to the Duke’s estate to question Gabriel. At the time, Gabriel had said Eliza had a wicked heart. But Sophie was truly cruel, poisonous, and malicious.

However, Eliza had not told Mary about how she had instructed Tina to abduct Sophie before leaving. After all, it was better for fewer people to know about it.

Eliza instinctively kept this from Mary. After finishing the soup, she stood up. “Mary, I’m a bit tired today. I’ll go rest and come back tomorrow to chat with you.”

“Alright. You’ve lost weight over the past half month Go to sleep now,” Mary said, her gaze softening as she looked at Eliza’s face with concern.

Eliza then returned to her courtyard. She pushed open the door and saw Tina with Sophie, who was bound up inside.

“Serenity, do you want me to find a place to hide her?” Tina asked.
