The Lady Nun Vows Revenge by Caroline Rowland

The Silent 262

The person who appeared outside Nolan's carriage was Isabelle.

"Your Highness, I can't do anything to you anyway, so why be so guarded against me?" Isabelle smiled faintly as she spoke.

Nolan frowned, his gaze filled with displeasure. "If you have something to say, out with it. If not get lost."

His blunt attitude was a stark contrast to the subconscious smile he had just shown, like night and day.

Isabelle sneered inwardly. 'What an act.

He treated other women differently just because of Eliza. But this special treatment might not last long. It might easily fall on another woman someday.

After all, she thought all men in the world were the same.

Suppressing the disgust in her heart, Isabelle put on a gentle smile. "Alright, I know Your Highness dislikes me, but I do have a deal I'd like to talk to you about."

As she said this, Nolan didn't even spare her a glance. His tone was cold and contemptuous. "You? What makes you think you're qualified to make a deal with me? The only reason I've tolerated your presence in this group is because of Serenity."

Isabelle's smile stiffened slightly, and she clenched her teeth subtly.

"Of course I know that. But is Your Highness unwilling to even hear the terms of my deal? Because this deal concerns the incident that happened to the Bennett family all those years ago. You... truly don't want to know?"

Her final sentence carried a hint of smugness.

After all, she knew as long as it was about the Bennett family, Nolan could not stay unmoved.

But she hadn't expected that Nolan truly wasn't moved at all.

"The matter of the Bennett family has nothing to do with you. Leave!" Nolan shouted coldly.

The Black Flag soldiers stationed around the carriage heard the commotion and immediately moved forward.
