Chapter 207

And in the end. Gabriel gave in.

Grayfaced and defeated, he turned and left, dragging his two sons with him. Matthew’s leg truly couldn’t take any more delayand after what Eliza had said, Gabriel wasn’t willing to gamble on whether it was true or not.

She glanced at Dylan, still unconscious, then at Eliza, who clung tightly to Caroline’s remains as if nothing else in the world mattered.

Mary’s gaze lingered on the clothwrapped bones for a long moment. Then she looked at Eliza and said gently, Don’t worry -Dylan will be fine. And I won’t let Gabriel take Caroline’s body again.

At the mention of Dylan, Eliza’s distracted gaze sharpened slightly. She gave him a quick look, then murmured. I’m not worried about himHer voice was distant, indifferentlike she really didn’t care at all.

As for her mother’s remains, she would never let Gabriel touch them again. Even if he came back, he’d never be able to find Caroline

Mary sighed, but said nothing more.

Back at Saint Grace Nunnery, Mary took Dylan away for treatment.

Eliza stepped down from the carriage and turned toward Nolan.

Your Highness

But before she could say another word, Nolan quickly raised a hand. Don’t overthink anything I said today,” he said, his tone light, almost too casual. Don’t let your father’s nonsense cloud your mind. One dayif you ever choose to leave this place- you’ll understand why I said what I did.

He’d been so worried she’d misunderstand. He’d rushed to clarify.

And now, seeing her truly unaffected, completely unmoved, his heart twisted a little.

Well, he thought bitterly, this path was never meant to be easy.

He had met her too late.

By the time their paths crossed, she was already cloaked in her black robes, committed to a life of solitude and faith. He had come too late. And from this moment forward, every step toward her would be ten times harder than it should have been.

Not just because of emotion. But because the world would never allow it, Worse still, she didn’t even return his feelingsnot yet.

He, the undefeated Prince Regent on the battlefield, had finally met someone he couldn’t bring himself to fight for, Because even he didn’t know if he had the right

He gave a quiet, bitter smile. All right,he said. Go in and get some rest. If anything happens, have Tina come find me Eliza looked at him. There was something off in his tone.

She opened her mouth, hesitatedthen said only, You should go, too. Don’t linger.”

A beat of silence passed

Then Nolan nodded. Fine. I’ll wait here until you’re inside, just in case.

They were literally standing outside Saint Grace Nunnery’s gate. What danger could there possibly be?

But she didn’t question it. She just nodded and walked away.

Nolan stood there, watching her figure disappear through the gate.

Only when she was gone did he finally turn and leave, the Black Flag trailing behind him like shadows,
