The Lady Nun Vows Revenge novel Chapter 404

404.Chapter 404

Nolan had no idea that his subordinates were caught between feeling happy for him and worrying about him.

Still, he was in high spirits as he made his way to Mount Westin

Even when news came from Kingston that their target had managed to escape, it only dampened his mood slightly. But the moment he laid eyes on Eliza, that trace of gloom vanished completely, leaving no shadow behind.

“Serenity.” Nolan’s voice suddenly rang out at the entrance of the courtyard

Eliza, who was busy tidying up the two herb gardens in the yard, turned around quickly at the sound of his voice. The moment she saw Nolan, her face lit up with joy

She asked. “You’re back already?”

Earlier, when she learned that Nolan had uncovered some leads and needed to leave Hasen City for a while, she thought it might take him several days to return

To her surprise, it had only been four days, and he was already back,

Seeing her smile, Nolan’s lips curved into a faint grin. It was hard not to feel lighter around her. “Yeah, it’s all sorted for now! After the foreign spy leader escaped, Nolan had gone to the Henderson family estate for a “visit” Unfortunately, after two days of waiting, he still hadn’t caught the target.

Perhaps Fletcher had already anticipated his moves and warned the spy in advance.

Or maybe the escaped foreign leader never intended to go to the Henderson estate at all.

But regardless of the reason, Nolan wasn’t worried.

He still had a foreign captive in his hands. Once he extracted the tracking parasite from them, he could trace the whereabouts of the spy leader.

He might even use the tracking parasite to test Fletcher.

With Ross handling things and everything in place, Nolan could finally let go of the small stuff and take a breather.

This meant Nolan could finally take a few days to rest.

Eliza immediately noticed the dark circles under Nolan’s eyes as he approached.

“You look like you haven’t slept in days. Is work really that overwhelming?” She frowned slightly as she spoke, her tone unconsciously laced with concern, and perhaps even a trace of heartache.

“You’ve caught me.” Nolan sighed, feigning helplessness. “I ran into those escaped foreigners from the Duke’s estate and ended up chasing them down with my troops. Things got a little… Intense.”

He raised a hand to his eyes, putting on a pitiful act. “I think my old condition might be flaring up again.”

If Ross were here, his reaction would undoubtedly be one of complete bewilderment.

He would think, ‘Wait, didn’t you just say you weren’t having an episode?

So now it’s suddenly “flaring up because the Holy Lady’s here? Really?”

Oh, I see. Only Your Grace gets to know, right?”

Because there was still some distance between them, Eliza couldn’t see his eyes clearly. She instinctively leaned in closer, her soft breath brushing against him as she studied his bloodshot eyes.

or your medicine? Could it be

Her frown deepened. “Didn’t I already send some fresh Bloodshade Blossoms to Dr. Larson for

that the blossoms weren’t mature enough, so the medicine isn’t working properly?”
