The Lady Nun Vows Revenge novel Chapter 5

Chapter 5

“Eliza Stonor, what in the world are you doing? Are you completely out of your mind?!” Sophie’s voice rang out, filled with fury.

She had hoped there might still be a way to fix things, was now both fiarious and sumned. Her voice trembled with emotion, as if Eliza had just torn apart her own clothes.

Eliza kept the scissors in her hand, waving them around with a carefree smile. “What does it look like I’m doing? I’m cutting the gown. Didn’t Dylan and you are it with their own eyes? Why all the drama?”

Dylan’s eyes nearly shot fire. “You’re seriously asking me that? That gown was custom–made for your coming–of–age ceremony, by me and Benedict! And you’re just chopping in up like it’s nothing?!”

Because no one

no one wants it anymore,” Eliza said coldly, snipping again. “I don’t want it, Sophie doesn’t want it, so if no one wants it, it’s gotta go”

Her icy demeanor made Dylan feel like he was looking at a complete stranger,

“Who says I don’t warn it?” Sophie nearly screamed, rage bubbling over.

Shrid only turned the gown down to keep Dylan from suspecting anything, but she never expected Eliza to go this far.

she’d planned to wear the gown for her coming–of–age ceremony, but now, it was ruined–all because of Eliza,

This was the most expensive, most exquisite gown in all of Hasen City–there wasn’t a second one like it.

Sophie felt a sharp pang of regret, as though her heart had been ripped out.

“When did you ever say you

you ever say you didn’t want it?” Dylan demanded, his anger growing “Didn’t you say you loved it? Didn’t you treasure this gown!”

Liza didn’t even flinch. “I don’t like li

She said it slowly, emphasizing each word “Maybe I liked it once, but not anymore. I don’t want anything that’s not mine.”

With one final snip, the gowns was ruined–completely shredded. Just like her relationship with Dylan and the others–broken beyond repair.

She had tried to salvage it, but if she’d cut ties earlier, maybe it wouldn’t have come to this point.

This time, she wasn’t going to make the same mistakes she did in her past life.

“Well, the coming–of–age ceremony’s about to start. Since Dylan doesn’t want me there, I’ll just take my leave,” she said, dropping the scissors and turning away

Her tone was full of impatience as she ushered them out of her way

Dylan stood there, rooted in the spot, staring at the shredded pieces of fabric.

His mind felt like it had been hit by a sledgehammer, leaving him dazed and confused. ‘N this can’t be happening Why is Eliza acting like this

“Why is slae doing this Is it because I made her give the gown to Sophie!

“But didn’t 1 misunderstand her! Isn’t all of this her fault in the first place! Why is she being so reckless!T

Dylan’s anger grew with every word, his voice sharp as he snapped, “This is all Benedict’s fault He spolled you roisen, and now look at you Trampling all over your brothers‘ feelings.

“What’s next, huh? Are you planning to turn everything upside down!”

He thought his words would hit horse with Eliza, but she didn’t even react.

Sitting there, her back to him, she didn’t spare him a single glance, her posture radiating cold indifference.

“Fine” Dylan gritted his teeth, practically seething. “So now you think you can throw a tantrum with me, huh!

“Just wan. I’ll go get Benedict and the others, and they’ll see just how out of lime you’re acting“”

With that, he snatched the crown Sophie Stonor had just picked up from the floor, along with the torn fabric and scattered debris, and shoved

Sore Dylan

“Forget it. I heard Lord Dylan yelling at Lady Eliza again. She must’ve done something to Lady Sophie. That girl’s got some wicked tricks.

u really want to get close to her after hearing that? What if one day she turns on you?

“God, that’s terrifying! If that’s the case, who’d want to serve her!”

Inside, Eliza listened without a flicker of emotion, her expression unreadable. One voice in particular stood out—it was Lillian Reed, her maid, speaking louder than the others.

Lillian, the same maid who had once kicked Eliza hard in the secret chamber to please Sophie, and who had helped Sophie betray her, was now Sophie’s trusted ally.

She’d even been secretly stirring up trouble among the servants, turning them against Eliza.”

A cold spark flashed in Eliza’s eyes. She’d never forget what S betrayed her walk away scot–free

Sophie and the Stonor family had done to her,
