Mary looked at her immediately. “Should I go out and deal with him?”

Eliza smiled and said to Mary, “I know what he’s here for. Don’t bother, Reverend.”

“Okay, just remember what I told you.”

Eliza nodded, then lifted her feet and followed the maid out. Gabriel was waiting at the corner not far from the hall.

But unfortunately, Eliza did not meet his exs. After glancing at him, she stopped at the entrance of the side hall

From a distance, she asked, “Since you want to see me, why don’t you come closer?”
