The Lady Nun Seeks Justice (Eliza Stonor) novel Chapter 90

Chapter 90

Upon seeing Gabriel, Adeline burst into tears. “Gabriel, you’re finally here! If you hadn’t come, your sister and nephew would have been bullied by Dale!”

“Nonsense.” Gabriel first scolded Adeline. “Dale is your husband. You’ve been the Marchioness for so many years, don’t you know how to restrain your temper and be more steady?”

“Gabriel, are you here to help me or not?”

Gabriel gave her a light glance, and Adeline dared not speak. “I’m here to help you, but I won’t let you do whatever you want.”

After saying this, Gabriel turned to Dale. “Dale, my sister has been spoiled and estate since she was a child. You have been married to her for many years, you should have understood and accepted her temperament. Why can’t you stand her today? You even want her to apologize to others?”

Dale sneered. On a normal day, he might give Gabriel some face. But not today.

He said, “Gabriel, why don’t you ask your sister what she did?”

Gabriel frowned slightly and looked back at Adeline.

Adeline shrank her head. “It’s not a big deal … It’s just a misunderstanding with Eliza. But the Prince Regent came to me and insisted that I apologize to her…”

“That’s right, Uncle! What does the Prince Regent mean? Why is he protecting Eliza like this?” After the servants untied him, Caleb immediately got up and agreed.

Dale glared at Caleb. “How dare you still act up! If you hadn’t stolen your mother’s snow cream and given it to Sophie, none of this would have happened! You are really stupid and vicious!”

Dale said with frustration, poking

several times with his finger.

Gabriel frowned again before thinking, ‘Why is it related to Sophie again?‘

He gave Adeline a cold look. “Tell me exactly what happened.”

Adeline had no choice but to tell the whole story to him.

She had wanted to hide the fact that she had gone to Saint Grace Nunnery to cause trouble for Eliza, but she could not possibly deceive Gabriel and Dale.

Dale simply said, “If you lie to me again, I will never care about you or your son again.”

Adeline dared not hide anything anymore. Even Caleb, in front of his parents and uncle, had to admit it with a blushing face.

After everything was clear, Dale looked at Gabriel, apparently waiting for him to make a decision. After all, he was the Duke of Mowbay.

Dale’s face remained expressionless, and he said nothing.

Gabriel knew that Adeline was stupid, but he didn’t expect Caleb to inherit Adeline’s nature. They were equally stupid.

Thinking of the recent conflicts with Nolan, Gabriel pinched the space between his eyebrows and asked, “Do they really have to apologize in person?”

Chapter 90

Dale couldn’t help but sarcastically say to Gabriel, “No wonder she treats Eliza that way. It seems that you have always spoiled her.”

“What do you mean?” Gabriel looked at Dale with displeasure,

Dale said coldly, “Adeline, I have eyes. Not everyone is a fool. Others may not know the date of Eliza’s birth, but I still remember.”

“Her birthday should have been a few days ago, but Duke moved her coming–of–age ceremony forward by two months, scheduling it to coincide with Sophie’s birthday. To make Sophie, who is two months older than Eliza, her younger sister… Duke, what are you trying to hide?”

Dale sneered. “So what if I am? So what if I’m not? I’m telling you this today because I want you to know that you shouldn’t think that just because Eliza has left the Duke’s estate, no one will support her. She is not alone. She still has everything the Padilla family left behind.”

The Padilla family was a century–old prestigious family.
