The Lady Nun Vows Revenge novel Chapter 58

Chapter 58

Adeline was Eliza’s aunt, but she had never liked her. Eliza ignored Adeline.

Eliza had once thought that Adeline treated everyone this way, but when Sophie arrived at the Stonor family, Adeline lavished her with affection. The difference in attitude made Eliza realize that Adeline simply didn’t like her.

Even when Adeline called her, Eliza stayed seated, acting as though she hadn’t heard.

Seeing that Eliza remained unmoving. Adeline became visibly annoyed and walked into the room

“What are you doing? Can’t you see met Don’t even bother to greet me? You clearly don’t know any manners.” Adeline reached out and tried to grab Eliza’s clothes. “Get up. Don’t you know to offer me your seat? What is this nonsense?”

Mary quickly intervened, blocking Adeline’s hand with hers, and spoke coldly. “Madam, please don’t lay your hands on Serenity and speak disrespectfully.”

Adeline then noticed that Mary was a nun. “Eliza, so you finally found yourself some support after joining the nunnery! Did you bring a nun here to the Marquis’s estate to throw your weight around

“Do you think we will be afraid of you after you become a Holy Lady now? Listen to me. Caleb will never marry you. No matter whether you become a nun or Holy Lady, you’d better stay away from our home from now on and stop bothering Caleb,”

“Mrs. Nevill, enough, Mary said, anger rising on her face as she stepped in front of Eliza, coldly staring down Adeline. “Please understand that Madam Nevill invited me here to treat her. Be careful with your words and don’t make baseless assumptions.

Adeline neered, unimpressed. “Treat her? Do you two think you have the ability to do that”

“Adeline, enough“” Before Adeline could say anything else, Evelyn, who had been half lying in bed, finally spoke up.

Evelyn gave Adeline a stern look. “Reverend Mary Mendoza and Serenity are my guests. If you dare disrespect them again, don’t blame me for being ruthless.”

“Madam Nevill, they–Adeline began.

Adeline gritted her teeth in anger, then turned and left.

Once Adeline had gone, Evelyn turned to Mary and Eliza, her face full of apology. “I’m so sorry, Reverend Mary Mendoza, and Serenity, I apologize to you for her rudeness

“I never expected her to dislike Eliza so much. I won’t bother you any longers Mary said.

Evelyn became anxious. “No, you mustn’t! I still need you to help me with my health. Don’t worry. I’ll make sure to properly educate Adeline and ensure that Serenity never faces such mistreatment again.

Mary didn’t respond further

A few seconds later, Evelyn seemed to want to say something, but Mary motioned round of acupuncture fint”

Evelyn fell silent, only glancing occasionally at Mary or at Eliza sitting by the bed. Eliza knew why Evelyn was looking at her. After all, the Nevill and Stonor families had been close for many years. Evelyn had watched Eliza grow

But after Evelyn fell ill the two families hadn’t seen each other much in the past couple of years, as Evelyn had been resting

The last time they had met was during the New Year Eliza had been meant to be Caleb’s wife. Now, months had passed, and Evelyn must have never imagined that when diy murt again. Eliza would already be a nun.

Eliza took one last glance at Evelyn’s awkward expression before nodding and stepping outside. She knew her presence was a bit awkward, so didn’t wander far She merely stood by the door, gazing out at the scenery in the yard, lost in thought.

While Eliza was bored, she had no idea that someone was making trouble for her.

After leaving Evelyn’s room, Adeline, still furious, sent someone to notify her son. Her initial intention was to tell Caleb not to return to the house before nightfall, so that he wouldn’t run into Eliza.

However, upon hearing that Eliza had come to his family’s estate, Caleb didn’t just send a message to the Stonor family. He immediately rushed back to the Stonor family himself.

As soon as Caleb stepped into Evelyn’s yard, he saw Eliza, who was lost in thought. This was the first time he had seen Eliza since she became a nun.

He had always known Eliza was beautiful. Many people had even joked that he was lucky. But Caleb was not the type of shallow person who only cared about looks. What he liked was a woman with true kindness in her heart just like Sophie,

Eliza only had outer beauty, but inside, she was full of calculation. If she weren’t so infatuated with him, Calch wouldn’t have given her any chance
