The Lady Nun Vows Revenge novel Chapter 580

efferson wasn’t completely clueless.

Maybe the Holy Lady was being truthful, but if they spilled everything and revealed Fletcher to her and Nolan, they’d only be digging their own graves faster!

No, they had to stall for time. It wasn’t the right moment yet!

The Malone family was still intact, and his mother was still out there. She would surely come up with a way to save them!

‘Louisa, keep your wits about you! Think back to everything I’ve taught you. Don’t let anything slip! Jefferson silently urged, his heart racing with worry.

Right at that moment, Jefferson was terrified that Louisa might lose her composure and accidentally expose Fletcher.

In the next room, Louisa’s gaze turned sharp and calculating. She fixed her eyes on Eliza and said, “Alright, since you’re so desperate to know, I’ll tell you. The one colluding with the Malone family is…”

She deliberately dragged out her words, letting the tension build, before suddenly raising her voice, “Your father, the Duke of Mowbay!”

‘That’s my girl! Brilliant move!‘ Jefferson nearly jumped for joy when he heard Louisa’s response from the other room. “Yes, that’s it! It’s the perfect answer!‘

It was not just because of Eliza, but also because of Anthony from the Duke’s estate!

Anthony was currently in Woteria, which made Gabriel, the Duke of Mowbay, the ideal scapegoat right now!

Jefferson was absolutely thrilled.

He had nearly forgotten about Anthony, but unexpectedly, his daughter, though unaware of Anthony’s presence in Woteria, inadvertently dragged the Duke’s estate into the mess.

As long as this accusation could be cemented, Nolan would have no choice but to tread carefully around the Holy Lady.

At that point, there might still be room to maneuver!

Eliza’s expression turned icy in an instant.

She stared at Louisa, who was laughing hysterically on the torture rack. “Eliza, bet you didn’t see this coming! The one colluding with my family is your own father! So, what now? Are you going to kill him? If the Stonor family is convicted, you won’t get away with it!”

Louisa was certain this would provoke some reaction from Eliza–fear, panic, maybe even an angry outburst.

But Eliza’s face remained utterly indifferent.

Her breathtaking features were calm, as if she were watching a tedious farce unfold before her.

Louisa’s wild laughter faltered, her confidence cracking as frustration and a dark fury bubbled to the surface.

Louisa roared, “What’s with that look? Who gave you the right to look at me like that? Do you have a death wish?”

“Louisa, don’t be ridiculous. If anyone’s digging their own grave here, it’s you.”

Eliza’s voice was cold enough to freeze the air.

“If you don’t start talking, how many of these torture tools do you think I’ll use on you today?

“You might not fear death, but have you ever thought about what it’s like to wish you were dead? Just like the innocent civilians you slaughtered, the young women you butchered–under these tools, how different do you think you’ll be from them?”

Louisa’s body tensed instinctively, but she quickly forced a smile, her bloodied face feigning innocence. “But I am telling the truth, Your Grace. It’s you who refuses to believe me. Are you afraid of being implicated? Afraid of being convicted alongside them? Afraid that you’ll lose your title as the Holy Lady and even your head?”

Eliza clicked her tongue. She let out a sigh, her expression finally shifting slightly.

It was a look of pure impatience.

She sneered, “Calling you stupid is an understatement. I thought you’d be smarter than my illegitimate sister, but it turns out you’re both equally pathetic.”

Eliza flicked the knife from her hand, letting it Successfully unlocked!th a sharp metallic ring.

She turned and walked toward the door of the chamber. Fasily at the lineshold, she glanced back at Louisa and said, “Go ahead. Keep saying Gabriel is in on it. But if you think that will threaten me, you’re far too naive.

“I cut ties with the Stonor family ages ago. Even if the Duke’s estate were guilty of treason, it would have little impact on me.

It certainly wouldn’t jeopardize my position as the Holy Lady. After all, my title doesn’t rely on the Duke’s estate.”

With that, Eliza left a curt “Make sure she gets the full experience‘ before stepping out of the chamber.

As soon as Eliza left, Louisa’s piercing screams echoed relentlessly from the chamber.

Meanwhile, Eliza walked to the entrance of the adjacent chamber.

The moment Jefferson saw her, his eyes widened in desperation, and he let out muffled, frantic sounds, struggling to make himself heard

But Eliza didn’t spare him a glance.

She shot Nolan a meaningful look, signaling him, before turning and walking away

Nolan immediately got up to follow her, tossing out a cold remark as he left, “Make sure Lord Malone feels property welcomed.”

On one side was Louisa’s agonized screaming, and on the other was Jefferson, gagged and powerless, unable to make some noise.

Louisa had no idea her father was just in the next room, while Jefferson knew but was helpless, like a drowning man unable to save anyone else.

Leaving the interrogation in the underground chamber to continue, Eliza and Nolan returned to the governor’s mansion. “What’s wrong?” Nolan asked, noticing the subtle shift in Eliza’s mood. He could tell something was bothering her. Eliza frowned, her elegant face tinged with a trace of disgust. “Anthony was here.”

This had nothing to do with Louisa’s earlier accusations.

It was because her poisonous bugs, which she used for tracking, had discovered traces left behind by Anthony within the governor’s mansion.

Nolan’s expression shifted. “The Duke of Mowbay himself?”

Eliza shook her head. “I don’t think so. The chances are slim.”

If it really were Gabriel, there was no way Anthony would have shown up.

They would never leave any evidence behind, nor would they allow any member of the Stonor family to come to Wotería, especially not at a time like this.

And even if they did send someone, it certainly wouldn’t be Anthony.

With his frail health, coming to a place like Wotería would be a death sentence. But why would he come?

Eliza rubbed her chin thoughtfully. Suddenly, something clicked. “Medicine! That’s it. He’s here for medicine!*

Despite the risk, Anthony came to Wotería. He wasn’t there to die. He must be after something that could save his life.
