Eliza was puzzled by Adeline’s words. After all, she didn’t expect that Adeline would actually come to apologize to her and ask for her forgiveness.
Eliza seemed to have thought of something after pondering for a moment.
She looked at the three people in front of her and asked, “What will happen if I don’t forgive you?”
She was curious.
Adeline’s expression changed instantly, and she said in anger and embarrassment, “I’ve already apologized to you, and my son has knelt down to you. What else do you want?”
Eliza narrowed her eyes slightly. Seeing Adeline’s anxious look, she knew she had guessed correctly. It turned out that she had been threatened.
She thought, ‘No wonder this person who usually looks down on me would suddenly come to me to apologize. As for who threatened her…
To be honest, Eliza knew who it was without guessing. After all, in the entire Bortenland, there are only one or two who could make the entire Marquis’s estate submit
Eliza sneered, “I’ve already said that I don’t accept your apology.”
“Eliza, don’t go too far!” Caleb said angrily.
Eliza said with an expressionless face, “Even if I go too far, I’m not as excessive as you. You slandered me with no evidence. You are arrogant and self–righteous. You ruined my reputation. Compared with you two, I am never going too far.”

“You are right.”
Just then, Dale suddenly said, “You are the victim, and only you know the injustice you have suffered. So if you are unwilling to forgive now, I can understand.”
Eliza didn’t answer. After speaking, Dale bowed to Eliza again, but this time to say goodbye. “I apologize for disturbing you today. After I return, I will have a good talk with my wife and son. I hope I can get your forgiveness next time.”
After that, Dale left Saint Ġrace Nunnery with Adeline and Caleb.
After watching them really leave, Sarah, who was hiding behind the door, poked her head out.
She looked surprised. “They left?”
Eliza nodded. “Yes, they left.”
Sarah shook her head in confusion.“I thought they came to make trouble today just like before, but I didn’t expect them to leave so easily today. Although what they said wasn’t very pleasant to hear, compared to before, today’s situation is much

better.”
Eliza smiled, her tone indifferent. “Perhaps it’s because their purpose in coming today is indeed different?
From Adeline’s words, it was clear that Nolan must have threatened them with something
Like when His Majesty demanded the same of the Duke’s family when he stood up for her.
Sarah said, “Forget it, let him be. It’s good that they can be like this”
Of the four brothers, Anthony was the smartest. But deep down, Sophie did not think highly of him.
