The Lady Nun Seeks Justice (Eliza Stonor) novel Chapter 242

Chapter 242

The officials–who had already been on edge–turned pale with terror.

Everyone in Bortenland knew the Prince Regent’s reputation. Nolan wasn’t just a war hero; he was a walking execution order. The moment he reached for his sword, the crowd of officials fell completely silent, not daring to breathe too loudly.

Just then, the doctor Nolan had summoned rushed in, quickly checked Eliza’s condition, and let out a breath of relief.

“Your Highness, please rest assured–Her Grace is only suffering from a chill combined with fatigue from the journey. Nothing serious”

Nolan immediately handed over the prescription Eliza had written herself. “Check this. Should the medicine be changed, or

it still be used?”

CHUL

The doctor took it with trembling hands, scanned through it carefully, and shook his head. “No need to change it. The prescription is well–balanced. I’ll simply add one herb to speed her recovery–she should wake soon after.”

As if on cue, Eliza stirred. Slowly, her eyes fluttered open. Her voice was hoarse but clear.

Eliza nodded. “Alright”

The second Nolan heard her voice, he strode to the bed in a flash; knelt beside her, and leaned in anxiously.

“Still dizzy? Does anything else hurt?”

Eliza shook her head gently. “I’m fine. Thank you, doctor. No need to adjust the medicine–just brew it according to what t prescribed.”

Nolan gave a short nod. “All right.”

If she said no, then it was no. No questions asked.

He didn’t hesitate. He turned and swiftly ordered people to begin preparing her medicine, then hurried back to her side, not leaving her alone for a second.

The doctor, seeing she was stable, bowed and excused himself–there were too many patients in Noganlul right now, and time was precious

When the medicine was ready. Eliza didn’t drink it right away. Instead, still pale, she turned her head slightly and said to Nolan, “There seems to be a crowd waiting outside. You should go. Ill be fine on my own”

Nolan’s hand paused just before handing her the bowl. Then he set it down carefully on the table.

“All right. If you need anything, call me.”

Eliza couldn’t help but let out a soft laugh.

If she really needed help, shouldn’t she be calling Tina? Why would she be calling him?

Clearly. Nolan hadn’t even realized the tone of what he’d said. Still, after giving her one last reluctant glance, he stood and stepped out, face like carved stone.

Sure enough, a group of local officials were still waiting outside, all wearing anxious expressions.

With Serenity unwell, Nolan had to step in to stabilize the situation himself. The sooner they could control the outbreak, the sooner she could safely resume her duties.
