“I’ll go get you some ointment now. Apply it quickly and don’t let it scar.” Eliza turned to go back to her courtyard when Tina suddenly appeared in front of her.

She asked, “Tina? You’re finally back. What took you so long?”

Tina hurried to Eliza. “Serenity, come with me! We have visitors from the palace!”

“Visitors from the palace?”

Eliza raised her eyebrows and turned to look at Nolan behind her. “Visitors from the palace?”

She found Nolan frowning. He obviously didn’t know about this either.

There was no time to get the medicine.

Eliza quickly returned to Saint Grace Nunnery. When she arrived outside the nunnery, she saw Mary and the others waiting at the gate, as well as James Gray in the distance, and behind him, the carriage that had taken her to Saint Grace Nunnery last time.

Seeing Eliza come out, James stepped forward and bowed respectfully. “Greetings, Holy Lady.”

“If praying for rain was useful, there wouldn’t be so many years of drought,” Nolan said with a cold face, not believing any of this.

James wiped the sweat from his forehead. He didn’t dare to refute Nolan and could only echo, “You are right, Your Highness.”

Nolan also knew that James definitely wouldn’t be able to offer more information, so he thought for a moment and said, “Forget it. Since His Majesty has summoned Serenity to the palace, he must have made arrangements. I will go with you.”

Of course, James he could only respectfully invite him to board the carriage.

However, Nolan did not get in. After Eliza changed her clothes and came out, he got on his horse and gave her a reassuring look. “Let’s go.”
