The Lady Nun Vows Revenge by Caroline Rowland

Chapter 304

That's absurd, Anthony Benedict exclaimed, incredulous. “How can you say we don’t treat you like a normal

person? Every single one of us does! And if Eliza truly despised you, why would she have looked after you for so

long? She may not deserve praise, but you owe her at least sgratitude. How can you be so unthankful?”

“I don’t hate her, | already told you that. It's just that she did care for me, so there’s that. Anthony’s voice was

flat, almost aloof.

Benedict could bear it no longer. “You are utterly hopeless!” he snapped, his voice shaking with rage as he spun

around and stormed away, robes billowing behind him.

*Benedict! Your medicine!” Anthony called after him, but he was already striding away, not even glancing back

as he left the courtyard.

Anthony frowned at the medicine, a touch of confusion in his expression. “I was only being truthful,” he

muttered. “Why does Benedict always take Eliza's side? Shouldn't | be the one feeling hurt?”

Anthony’s face remained blank for a moment before he shook his head. “It’s fine. Even Benedict doesn’t get me,

but that’s okay. Sophie understands, and that’s all that matters.”

He recalled Gabriel's instructions back in Sophie's room. Cultivating medicinal herbs-it was a good plan, but

they'd need a lot more land to make it profitable.

Eliza already had a significant advantage with three large estates and additional fields she had acquired. Her

competitors would have needed to match or exceed her herb fields to keep up. However, the Duke's estate had

limited land, even with the portion given to Sophie.

‘It seems I'll have to acquire another estate. Benedict's property could be a viable option. Anthony stroked his

chin, lost in thought. “How can | persuade Benedict to give up his estate?’

A few days later, at Saint Grace Nunnery, Eliza finished her daily inspection of the herb fields as Malaki trailed

behind her, giving her a steady stream of reports.

“Kenzie Frye is at Oriphoenix Building and sends her greetings. She wants you to know she’s committed to

managing the building as diligently as before and hopes you can visit when you have time.”

Eliza nodded slightly. “I'm swamped lately, but I'll visit her as soon as | have time.”

“koger was taken from the Duke's eptate the sday the magistrate of the House of Imperial Justice received

full compensation. However, our people haven't seen him since.”

“Don’t bother investigating. The Duke’s estate wouldn't tolerate someone liks him. He's likely dead already.”

“Alright!” Malaki picked up the bucket and left.

Just as Malaki departed, another visitor arrived at Eliza's gate. Eliza glanced over. “Your Highness?”

Nolan set the box of pastries on the stone table. “I brought you spastries,” he said.

The instant the aroma reached her, Eliza guessed what it was. “Basque cheesecake?” she asked Nolan, her voice

laced with surprise.

With a chuckle, he sat down. “I heard this was your favorite, so | brought some.”

Eliza arched an eyebrow. “And just who might have told you chat?”

“Of course, | have time,” Eliza said, thinking that if the Prince Regent was making tin his schedule to teach
