The Lady Nun Vows Revenge by Caroline Rowland

Chapter 177 Chapter 177 Chapter 177 Then, Dale headed to his room. His attitude angered Adeline "Dale, stop right there! Adeline shouted. With indignation, she looked at Dale and asked, "You are so protective of that hitch. Do you still love Caroline? Instantly, Dale's face darkened. Dale coldly looked back at Adeline and said. T have told you a thousand times. Caroline is just my childhood friend." "If so, why are you so protective of Eliza? Because that bitch is Caroline's daughter, right? Adeline pressed Dale. Adeline didn't trust Dale at all With tears all over her face, she said. "Given your attitude towardand Caleb, you haven't gotten over Caroline. You still love her. That is why you are so good to her daughter.

"Oh, Dale, you are so cruel! Why did you marrysince you don't loveat all? Caleb was dumbfounded. His gaze was shifted between his heartbroken mother and his helpless father, and he was at a loss.

"Why do you still think so after all these years?" Speaking, Dale returned to the living room.

With disdain in his eyes, he said, "If I were protective of Eliza because of Caroline, I wouldn't have allowed Caleb to break off his engagement with Eliza at her coming-of-age party.

"I speak up for her because you, her aunt, are unreasonable. What did you call her? You called your niece a bitch. "Anyway, she is the daughter of your elder brother. As her aunt and once a member of the Stonor family, you had better watch your language and not make the Stonor family a laughingstock" Dale patiently and softly explained to Adeline.

Adeline bit her lower lip, unconvinced. "Well... Even if your protection of that... that girl has ing to do with Caroline, it can't prove that you don't love Caroline." Hearing this, Dale took a deep breath helplessly. In the past years, we have fought over this matter many times. As I said, 1 see Caroline as a friend. If I loved her, she wouldn't have married Gabriel." Back then, the Nevill family had been much more powerful than the Stonor one. However, things changed later. Hearing this, Adeline glared at Dale. "Because my elder brother was quick to act" "Nonsense!" Dale thought. He didn't give Adeline a further explanation because many things were involved in that marriage.

He was afraid that the truth would confuse and distress his simple wife. "Don't waste your ton nonsense. Letask you. Have I cheated on you after we got married?" Dale once had two mistresses, and they got dismissed by Adeline. "You said that I was bad to Caleb, but he is the only child in this spacious Marquis's estate.

Adeline was in poor health, so Dale didn't push her for more children after the birth of Caleb.

In other words, Caleb was the only heir to the Marquis's estate. In Hasen City, few families had only one child, especially the rich ones.

Even Caroline had to give birth to five children for Gabriel. To make things worse, Gabriel had an illegitimate child.

At the end of the fight, Adeline felt that she was in the wrong. She wasn't sure how Dale felt about Caroline, but it was clear that he was good to her after their marriage.

i 1/3 11:05 Thu, 17 Apr Chapter 177 Convinced. Adeline grumbled, "Back then, you said no to my feelings many times, Int you changed your heart after a meeting with Caroline. How did she do that? "She gaveone sentence. Dale then sighed. Adeline immediately asked, "What did the say?" "I forgot" Dale responded. He said so because he felt that Adeline would make a fuss about that sentence later.

Adeline was stubborn. "Think then. Tellwhat the hell Caroline said: Dale protested, "Con! It's getting late! Can't you givea break? Look at your son! He is sleeping on the floor "Oh, Caleb! You silly child? The floor is so cold. Get up, and go sleep in your bedroom, Adeline said.

Caleb was in a daze after being awoken "What? Can I get up now, Mom?" After Adeline led Caleb away, Dale finally had a moment of peace. He sat down and poured himself a cup of tea Looking at the clear tea, he slowly recalled what Caroline had said to him more than ten years ago.

Dale, you may not like her personality, but she is the best match for you," Caroline persuaded.

Adeline was innocent and a bit silly. After she married into the Nevillm family, she was devoted to Dale and their child. To her. her little family always cfirst.

"Caroline, you are right. She is the best match for me," Dalecommented. He took a sip of tea and then smiled. "But she is a bit silly.

Even now, she still doubts my love for her." This was Saint Grace Nunnery. It would be another sleepless night for Eliza.

This time, the unwelcvisitor wasn't the shadow guard of the Duke's estate, but Gilbert.

When Gilbert stopped at the entrance of the backyard, night hadn't fallen yet. Eliza was busy with her herbal garden.

Two patches of land were left unplanted after the herbs had been taken away. Not long ago. Nolan had sent snew herbs to Eliza

Eliza chose the most common herb from the new ones and planted it in one patch of the land. Then, she selected a precious herb from the pocket farm and carefully grew it in the other patch. After deliberation, she concluded that she would need the herbs in the pocket farm for scritical moments and that she should make preparations from now on.

The herbs in the pocket farm were precious because they were on the verge of extinction. Things would be changed if Eliza could grow those herbs in her garden.

As for the sources of those age-old herbs, she could make the Padilla family her excuse People wouldn't dwell on the trifle as long as Eliza could grow those precious herbs. In this way, she could keep the pocket farm her secret forever.

"Where is my Soul Centipede?" Standing at the entrance of the backyard, Gilbert questioned while coldly staring at Eliza busy planting herbs.
