The Lady Nun Vows Revenge novel Chapter 29

Chapter 29

The Black Flag soldiers brought over a chair, and Nolan sat down casually. “Lord Mowbay, relax,” he said. “My men are seasoned veterans. They’ve killed countless enemies on the battlefield.

“They know exactly when to draw their blades. As long as you and your sons don’t interfere, no one will get hurt.

The message was clear–if Gabriel or his family tried to intervene, Nolan’s men wouldn’t hesitate to act.

Gabriel had always known Nolan to be ruthless, but he hadn’t expected Nolan to be this brazen in Duke’s estate.

With an icy expression, he said. “Eliza is my daughter. She made this decision on a whim, without my approval. I’m about to have her ask the king to withdraw the decree. Your escort isn’t necessary”

Nolan glanced at Eliza, who had stopped in her tracks. His tone remained calm. “Is that what you want?”

Eliza didn’t hesitate. “No. Becoming a nun and praying for the country is my own choice, and I won’t regret it”

“Elizar” Gabriel barked. “Are you really set on cutting ties with the Stonor family?”

Faced with his fury, Eliza simply sneered and said, “Like I said–thank you for your blessing, Father”

Gabriel’s face darkened, his expression downright terrifying. For a moment, fear flickered in Eliza’s heart–she had rarely seen him like this. But even so, she refused to back down.

Watching the exchange, Nolan gave an approving nod. “Understood. Half your time is up, Holy Lady. You should hurry”

Without another glance at Gabriel, Eliza turned and ran off

Gabriel’s gaze snapped back to Nolan, his voice colder than ever. “Must you stand against me like this?”

Watching Eliza disappear into the distance, Nolan let out a theatrical sigh. “I don’t have a choice. Just following orders.”

Then, he narrowed his eyes and flashed a faint smile. “I’d appreciate it if you didn’t make things difficult for me, Lord

Mowbay.”

At this point, Gabriel understood–unless the king himself revoked the decree, Nolan wouldn’t back down.

“Fine” Gabriel’s tone was sharp as he shot Nolan a glare. “Prince Nolan, since that’s how you want to play it. I’ll go to the palace myself. Nolan remained unfazed. “You’d better hurry. Once Lady Eliza takes her vows, it’ll be too late.”

Kaowing there was no room for negotiation, Gabriel wasted no time. He ordered Dylan and the others to keep an eye on Eliza, then called for a carriage and left for the palace with Benedict.

The brothers left behind exchanged bitter smiles. Father, even you can’t outmaneuver Prince Nolan. What are we supposed to do! How are we supposed to

Eliza‘ they thought.

Wit only a few minutes left, Eliza didn’t waste time. She had the Black Flag soldiers carry her pre–packed luggage before slipping into her

She stored everything of value–including all of her mom’s belongings from before her marriage–inside her pocket farm.

She would bring her to Saint Grace Nunnery, where she could pray not just for the country but for her mother as well–hoping that in the next life. she would never have to cross paths with the Stonor family again.

(without hesitation. Dylan and the odarts tried to step in but the Black Flag soldiers‘ blades made it clear they wouldn’t get far. Mitching her leave with Mulan, Dylan couldn’t hold luck. “Eliza! How can you just walk away like this? Don’t you feel guilty about abandoning Father and wa! Aurit you afraid you’ll regret this one day?”

“Your Majesty,” Benedict began, kneeling. “Eliza only asked to become a nun because she was upset after Caleb from the Marquis’s estate broke off
