She had Mary, Diana, Renee, Tina, Malaki, and everyone at Saint Grace Nunnery to care for

She could endure Gabriel’s wrath, but the others might not be able to.

So now, she couldn’t act as recklessly as she once might have.

Eliza’s gaze darkened.

If she couldn’t destroy the Duke’s estate in one fell swoop, then forcing them into a corner step by step would work just as well.

Eliza’s eyes swept over her collection of venomous creatures, finally landing on a group of ants tucked away in the corner.

Specifically, red fire ants

These ants were highly aggressive, but compared to her other venomous creatures, their venom wasn’t particularly potent.

So, Eliza had conducted special research to cultivate them, using a toxin that mimicked the effects of fire and corrosion rather than a deadly poison.

Initially, the red fire ants resisted her toxin fiercely. Even with the magical water, many perished in droves. Fortunately, Eliza had obtained these ants from Gilbert and allowed them to reproduce before experimenting.

She hesitated for a moment before blurting out, “Could it be… they’ve been caught?”

That day, Eliza came straight for her, clearly knowing something. It wouldn’t be surprising if Lucas Carter’s group had already been discovered, which would explain why they fled no quickly.

For the past few days, Sophie had been consumed with worry, their silence only deepening her fears.

It wasn’t their deaths that scared her, it was the possibility that their capture might drag her down with them. If they’d been exposed, a death sentence might be waiting for Sophie,
