The Lady Nun Seeks Justice (Eliza Stonor) novel Chapter 277

“Serenity, may I…” Dylan asked. Without hesitation, Eliza said, “No!” Bang! She gave Dylan a hit, and the latter blacked out right away. Discreet, she blindfolded her elder brothers and tied them up.

Both Dylan and Matthew were dragged out of the pocket farm. Then, Eliza shouted, “Tina.” Tina quickly popped up at the call, and she pushed open the door of the room. “Take them to Dylan’s cabin,” Eliza ordered.

“Yes,” Tina responded. At noon, Gabriel got informed and then ordered, “Go bring them home!”

When Dylan and Matthew woke up, they found themselves back in Duke’s estate. “Dad…” At the sight of Gabriel, Matthew was wild with joy. However, he then got a hard slap on the face.

“You brat, I will kick you out of Duke’s estate if you cause trouble again!” Gabriel threatened. Furious, Gabriel didn’t show mercy to Matthew, so his starving child lost balance and fell to the floor.

“Dad, please don’t. Matthew… He just stood up for me. Beat me if you want to vent your anger,” Sophie pleaded. She needed Matthew and Anthony to be her pawns, so she had to speak up for Matthew now.

Instantly, Matthew was moved as Sophie had planned. He quickly explained, “Not Sophie’s fault. Dad, you know that I don’t like Eliza. She humiliated us with the shit, so I was determined to teach her a good lesson,”

“A good lesson? You got caught. If you got killed, I wouldn’t have the confidence to find your corpse,” Gabriel responded. He then let out a cold snort.

Matthew opened his mouth to argue with Gabriel. Right then, his expression changed as he suddenly clutched his stomach. He broke out into a cold sweat on the forehead, and a hush fell.

“Matthew!” Gabriel shouted with worry, and Sophie did the same. “What’s wrong with him? Get a doctor over. Quick!” Gabriel ordered. Only then did he perceive that Matthew had a pale face and was much thinner than before.

The doctor checked on Matthew upon his arrival. “He fainted from starvation. He is at his limit,” the doctor explained. Hearing this, Gabriel frowned with shock as he said, “What?”

Soon, Matthew gulped down one bowl of porridge. He didn’t feel satisfied till he had emptied five bowls of porridge. Then, he had the strength to begin his complaint to Gabriel.

“Dad, do you know how evil Eliza is? To get my Stone Sea Manor, she gave me no food or water. I had been starving for four days. Without your timely rescue, I might have starved to death,” Matthew said.

Gabriel’s face darkened as Matthew continued, “Dylan was kind enough to give me two mouthfuls of food. Dylan now sides with Eliza as if he were possessed. He persuaded me to give my manor to Eliza. Without my strong willpower, I might have yielded before you found me.”

It was difficult for Matthew to believe what he had just heard, so he asked for confirmation, “Dad, you were kidding, weren’t you? That is my manor! Mine!” Then, he thought, “How could Dad give my Stone Sea Manor to Eliza!”
