The Lady Nun Vows Revenge by Caroline Rowland

Her face turned cold when Dylan told Eliza what he'd found in Gabriel's study. Learning that the ledger was connected to the Padilla family's assets confirmed her suspicions: what happened all those years ago was no simple matter.

Eliza's suspicions grew-her father was likely involved in the Padilla family's ruin. She lowered her gaze slightly, concealing the iciness in her eyes. "Where is the ledger now?" she asked.

Dylan hesitated. “I couldn't get it, it's still with him,” he explained, quickly adding, "He's already suspicious because of my earlier attempts, and his studies will be even harder to get into now. Trust me, I'll get the ledger,"

Eliza looked at him and asked, "Do you want to go yourself?"

Dylan nodded resolutely. It was something he had to do.

"Will you give it to me then?" she asked.

Dylan didn't hesitate to answer, "Of course."

Eliza shot him another glance. "Aren't you the least curious about what I plan to do with it?"

Dylan shook his head. "There's no need to be curious," he said, realizing Eliza was far more decisive. He figured giving her the ledger would be better than keeping it himself, though he'd still help her sort everything out.

Eliza raised an eyebrow slightly. "Not bad," she conceded. "Bring me the ledger, and I'll tell you what you want to know."
