The Lady Nun Vows Revenge novel Chapter 405

Nolan coughed lightly into his fist, as if trying to mask his embarrassment, standing there obediently with his head lowered, his gaze fixed on Eliza.

Though he was clearly bring scolded, his expression betrayed him. It was almost like he was secretly enjoying it.

Luckily Eliza didn’t notice, or she might have given him another round of reprimands.

Diana, who had been sitting in the courtyard watching the two of them, couldn’t help but twitch the corner of her mouth.

She said. “Come on, Eliza, he’s the Prince Regent! You’ve got guts.”

She couldn’t believe Eliza had managed to lecture the most powerful man in Bortenland to the point where he couldn’t even lift his hend

Worried that Eliza might actually anger him, Diana quickly reached out and pulled her back

But the moment she grabbed Eliza’s hand, Nolan’s gaze turned sharp, almost piercing, sending a chill down Diana’s spine.

It was enough to make her hesitate, her words faltering.

“Don’t worry. His Highness isn’t the type to hold grudges Eliza, oblivious to Diana’s unease, casually patted her shoulder.

Eliza, oblivious to Diana’s unease, casually patted her shoulder,

Nolan then spoke up. “Eliza’s right. I’m not the kind of person to take offense easily. Besides, Eliza is my friend, and her friends are my friends as well.”

Diana’s lips twitched again.

She thought, if I hadn’t caught your double standard, I might’ve actually bought your nonsense.

“Your Highness, you’re not even trying to hide your favoritism anymore.”

In the end, Diana chose to stay silent.

After all, since Eliza left her family, Nolan had indeed done a lot for her.

Take that private decree, for instance. He handed it over without a second thought.

If he didn’t genuinely care for Eliza, he could not possibly go that far

That private decree wasn’t just for commanding five hundred Black Flag soldiers.

In the wrong hands, it could cause unimaginable trouble for Nolan.

So, if he didn’t truly trust Eliza, if he didn’t genuinely have her best interests at heart, he would not dare to give her something so significant.

For now, Diana believed that Nolan was on Eliza’s side.

But a man being good to a woman could mean many different things.

Eliza might not understand this, but Diana certainly wasn’t as naive as her.

She hadn’t thought much of it before, but now that she reflected on it carefully, there was no doubt that Nolan had certain feelings for Eliza

It was just that, constrained by Eliza’s identity, he hadn’t voiced them.

Diana quickly pieced it all together.

She couldn’t help but respect how Nolan handled things.

In this world, a woman’s reputation meant everything, especially for someone like Eliza, who was both a Holy Lady and a nun. If her purity were ever called into question, it would mean certain ruin.

And in her case, the stakes were doubly high.

Diana glanced at Eliza, worry flickering in her eyes.

Eliza noticed and gave her hand a gentle squeeze. “What’s on your mind?”

Diana shook her head. Once again, she chose to say nothing
