The Lady Nun Vows Revenge novel Chapter 363

63.Chapter 363

That night. Sophir tossed and turned, unable to sleep

Well, it wasn’t that she truly couldn’t sleep. She simply had matters weighing on her mind and needed to wait until late at night before sneaking over to Benedict’s place

So, she stayed awake, waiting until the candles in her room had nearly burned out before finally rising quietly. She changed into more discreet clothing slipped past the night watching maid Annie, pushed open the door, and crept outside. “Where are you going?”

“Where are you going?” Just as Sophie was about to sneak out of the courtyard, a voice suddenly rang out behind her. Sophie froze her heart skipping a beat She turned around. “Oh, it’s you. You scared met

The man standing behind her was none other than that parasite controlling man who had sought her out some time ago,

He claimed to be someone sent by her mother, but his arrogant demeanor didn’t suggest he was some mere subordinate And Lucas even dared to threaten her with his poison!

Lucas’s cold, piercing game locked onto her. He repeated his question. “It’s late. Where are you going?”

Sophie rolled her eyes. “None of your business. I have my own business to take care of. I don’t owe you an explanation for everything”

Lucas’s expression didn’t change. Tve warned you before, haven’t I? Stop using your stupid brain to do these ridiculous things. If you mess up again, I put a parasite in your head and see if there’s anything in there besides water.

His words, both insulting and threatening, made Sophie’s blood boil. She clenched her teeth in anger. “You’ve got some nerve calling me stupid! If it weren’t for you forcing me to smuggle those parasites into the palace, I wouldn’t have ended up locked in the Ministry of Justice’s prison for days!

“Do you even know what I went through in that prison? I was practically tortured to death!”

Lucas frowned slightly. “Prince Regent tortured you?”

How could that be possible?

The parasites he had planted in the Ministry of Justice had reported back that no torture had taken place. ‘Has something gone wrong? he thought

But Sophie declared righteously. “No, there was no torture. But I couldn’t eat, couldn’t sleep, and I’ve lost so much weight! Do you see how pale I am? Isn’t that torment enough?”

Lucas was momentarily speechless.

He thought. Something is definitely wrong. Sophie is indeed stupid. How on earth did Zoie give birth to such a clueless daughter? Lord Mowbay doesn’t seem like a fool, so whose intellect has Sophie inherited?

“If you have even a shred of decency, help me with something right now,” Sophie snapped, seizing the opportunity.

“What is it? if it’s another idiotic scheme, don’t bother speaking. Lucas replied coldly.

Sophie shot him a glare “Watch your tone. Don’t think I fear you just because you have those parasites. If you still want the antidote, you’d better obey me. Otherwise, don’t expect any more chances from me ”

Sophie had always assumed Lucas and his group were just like Gilbert–puppets controlled by Zoie’s poison. The only reason she gave them respect was because they seemed more capable. But now that she had the chance to order around, the wa (1 about to let it slip:

What Sophie didn’t realue was that while Lucas and his group were indeed Zoid’s people, he was not her subordinate, let alone a poison controlled puppet

Hearing Sophie’s threat, Lucas’s expression turned scornful Save your threats I’m not one of your mother’s mindless

said. There was no point explaining further to a fool like her–ignorance was her only protection Before Sophie could glare at him again and throw another threat, Lucas cut her off impatiently. “Are you going to tell me what you want or not? if not, I’m leaving

Sophie nearly grasted her teeth to splinters ir Successfully unlocked! ear she felt toward him forced her to swallow her anger. Before you showed up. I sent two flow poistened to slowly control him like my mother did But who knew he’d end up poisoned and on the verge of death? Now my father’s investigating the whole thing. If you’ve got nothing better to do, go get those flower pots back before he finds them

Gilbert looked at her like she was completely useless. “You can’t even poison someona nananaki

your mother

Sophie hot him a furious glare “So, are you going or not? If you’re not, I’ll do it myself”

Please. With your skills, you’d be caught the moment you set foot in Benedict’s courtyard

“What do you mean? Has Father already made his move?” Sophie’s eyes widened in surprise

Gilbert replied coolty, “Your father had people monitoring Benedict’s courtyard long ago. You should be grateful. If you’d tried sneaking in to poison him instead of sending those flowers, you’d already be locked up by your father”

The revelation sent a chill down Sophie’s spine

“What’s going on Why would Father monitor Benedict? Does Benedict have some kind of secret?
