Eliza frowned slightly. “What’s he doing here at this hour?”

‘Did he mess up at the Duke’s estate again and couldn’t handle it?‘

With that thought, Eliza stood and headed outside, saying

up

to Tina, “Come with me to

check it out.”

At the same time, she took the plate of snacks from Tina’s hands.

Before long, Eliza arrived at the stream behind the

mountain, carrying a lantern.

As soon as she got there, someone appeared out of nowhere, landing silently in front of her.

“Eliza, you’re finally here! If you’d come any later, I’d be nothing but a mosquito buffet!” Rafe whined, his tone mock- aggrieved. His eyes

immediately locked onto the plate of snacks in Eliza’s hands, lighting up like a kid spotting candy.

“How did you know I was starving? These must be for me, right?”

To his surprise, Eliza handed the plate over without a word. She set the lantern down and asked coolly, “What’s so urgent that you had to come this late? Don’t tell me the Duke got the better of you.”

Matthew grabbed the snacks and hopped onto a rock across from her.

Swinging his legs, he took a big bite and spoke between chews, “No way! That cranky old man tried to lock me up the moment I got back. But come on, with just those few people in the Duke’s mansion, no way they could ever keep me locked in.”

After finishing another piece of the snack, he continued, “I

came to see you about

someone else.”

Eliza didn’t sit down like him.

She stood by the stream,

letting the cool night breeze brush past her.

Hearing his words, she replied calmly, “It’s about Benedict, isn’t it?”

Rafe raised an eyebrow immediately. “Eliza, you really are amazing. You must have already guessed that

something would happen to our dear big brother after he went back, right?”

That was an easy guess. After all, her ‘dear father‘ was the type to nitpick over every little thing.

Today, his precious son dared to defy him, siding with his rebellious daughter and

ruining his grand plans. There’s no way Gabriel would let Benedict off without some form of punishment.

“You don’t seem worried at all, Eliza?”

Rage leaned in, craning her neck to sneak a peek at Eliza’s expression while holding a plate of snacks.

“Why should I care? He won’t die,” Eliza replied flatly.

And even if he did, what would

that have to do with her?

From start to finish, she hadn’t asked Benedict for anything regarding this matter.

She had begged him in the past, but Benedict hadn’t even spared her a glance back then.

Now, she didn’t need him

anymore.

So, no matter what Benedict did or how much he did, it had nothing to do with her.

Rafe’s eyes widened in

surprise. “Then I came all this way to bother you for nothing? I thought you’d definitely want to know how he’s doing.”

He had rushed all the way from Hasen City, thinking this news would matter to her.

Hearing the disappointment in his voice, Eliza couldn’t help but chuckle. “Well, it wasn’t a total waste. At least you got

some snacks and kept the bugs busy.”

Rafe rubbed his chin and

squinted. “Hmm, that kind of

makes sense.”

He didn’t care about the bugs,

but the snacks were worth it.

“Important? You mean all that

power struggle nonsense in the estate?”

That wasn’t what Eliza meant.

She rolled her eyes and said dryly, “As long as Gabriel’s still breathing, it won’t be your turn no matter how hard you try.”

“Fair enough,” Rafe said,

stroking his chin thoughtfully.

“Guess I’m free then. So, are you planning to give me something to do?”

“I do have something in mind, but if you’re not interested, I won’t push you,” Eliza replied calmly.

Rafe raised an eyebrow, his grin widening. “Not interested? Who said that? No matter what you arrange for me, I can do it. I can even help you kill Father if that’s what you want, but you have to promise me one thing.”

He picked up the lantern Eliza had placed on the ground, walked over to her side, and held it out to light her path.

Eliza glanced at him, took the lantern, and said, “I don’t need you for that. Just focus on digging up some information for me.”

“Digging up information? Not exactly my specialty, but since

you’re asking, I’ll give it my best shot,” Rafe said, his grin

turning playful.

He didn’t look particularly reliable.

But Eliza didn’t seem to mind. “What’s the promise you want, then?” she asked.

Rafe paused, as if deep in thought, before finally saying, “I want a name.”

“A name?” Eliza blinked, caught off guard.

She hadn’t expected this to be his request.

“Yeah, a new name,” Rafe said,

shrugging like it was no big

deal. “This name of mine is too

unlucky, so I want you to pick a new one for me. Anything’s fine, just not ‘Malone‘ or

‘Stonor. You decide the rest.”

As he said this, his gaze locked on hers, a quiet, almost

desperate hope flickering in his

eyes.
