The Lady Nun Vows Revenge novel Chapter 720

Chapter 720

“Damn it! Who is this Henderson woman supposed to be?” Sophie spat. “Jacqueline and Isabelle are the only daughters they have, so where did this mysterious third one come from?”

The maid immediately reported that Isabelle had died, and that the Henderson family had found their long lost third daughter, Audrey

Sophie froze, her brows knitting in shock. She hadn’t expected that Isabelle was actually dead.

Then, she fumed inwardly, “This life is nothing like my last! The damned still breathe, while the worthy lie dead. What the hell is going on here?!

‘Has Eliza really been coming back to life too? Or could it be that this life is simply unfolding differently?‘

Sophie suddenly remembered something. “Wait, you said that little bitch Eliza asked His Majesty to change her surname. Didn’t Father try to stop her?”

The maid stammered nervously, “I… I don’t know much about this, my lady, only what I’ve heard from the rumors outside. Maybe it has something to do with the Holy Lady… I mean, that bitch helping His Grace find his long–lost young master.”

Sophie frowned sharply and asked, “What young master are you talking about?”

The maid stole a nervous glance at her expression and explained cautiously, “It’s… it’s His Grace’s young master. I heard he’s… an… an illegitimate son raised outside the family.”

The instant those final words left the maid’s lips, Sophie’s face darkened like a thundercloud, her expression instantly turning murderous.

Sophie hissed through gritted teeth, her voice trembling with fury, “What… did… you… just… say?!”

‘An illegitimate son? No way! How could Father have an illegitimate son?!‘ Sophie slammed her hand down on the table, smashing it to pieces.

The maid, nearly scared out of her wits, blurted out at breakneck speed, “The young master is in the Shiverhall Courtyard here in the estate. If you don’t believe me, Lady Sophie, you can go see for yourself.”

‘Of course I’ll see for myself what kind of bastard Eliza has brought back for Father!‘ she thought to herself

Sophie fixed the maid with a deadly glare and snarled, “If you value your miserable life, you’d better obey me. Or I’ll have you skinned alive and make you suffer a fate worse than death.”

“I understand! I’m willing to go through fire and water for you, Lady Sophie. Just give me an order!” she replied.

Sophie’s murderous intent eased slightly. She sheathed her dagger and demanded, “What’s your name?”

The maid replied, “My name is Sibyl, my lady.”

“Sibyl, you’re coming with me to the Shiverhall Courtyard. I’m going to check it out.” Sophie’s voice was firm.

“Yes, my lady. Please, let me show you the way,” Sibyl nodded.

Sophie would never have even heard of such a lowly place as the Shiverhall Courtyard without the maid’s report.

After all, a noble lady like her would never deign to visit such lowly, shabby quarters in the estate.

Though not run–down, the Shiverhall Courtyard paled in comparison to the lavish quarters of the other family members. It was simpler, and far more removed.

As soon as Sophie reached it with Sibyl, she strode forward and kicked the door open with a forceful blow, sending it crashing against the wall.
