The Rise Of The Unwanted Girl (Athena) novel Chapter 104

Chapter 104

Eloise looked around blankly but didn’t see Mhena anywhere Anxiously, sweat broke out on her forehead

There were crowds of people passing by.

Dorothea, shielding her from the jostling crowd, suggested, “Madam, why don’t we go inside there? There are too many people out here

People in the lively square came from all walks of life. Some were decent, some not.

If someone were to bump into Llone, the consequences could be serious.

“But Athena is gone.” Eloise craned her neck, her face full of worry. “She only has that maid Trina with her. What if something happens

“She should’ve told you before leaving” Dorothes sighed, closely displeased. “If only she understood your concern. Don’t worry about her,” Dorothea had been Eloise’s maid since her dowry days and was utterly loyal. Others wouldn’t dare speak so bluntly.

Eloise patted her hand and smiled. “I’m her mother. It’s only natural worry, Forget it. Let’s goin

Inside the church. Willow and Matthew had been pushed onto a high platform. They looked out over the crowd but couldn’t see Elsewhere

“This is bad. We’ve lost Mother. Will she be worried?” Willow’s little face was filled with distress, her eyes turning red with ant

Seeing this, Matthew felt terrible and quickly comforted her. “Don’t worry. Mother will be here soon. Most of the worshippers are inside the main hall”

Willowb

low bit her lip anxiously. “That may be, but her health isn’t good. What if she gets hurt in the crowd?”

Willow looked up at him with hopeful eyes. “Matthew, could you go find her? I’ll wait here at the temple and won’t run off”

But… Matthew hesitated Willow only had Nona by her side. The other maids and attendants had been scattered by the crowd

it would take time to gather them. He didn’t want to leave Willow alone.

Seeing this, Nona quickly offered, “Don’t worry, Lord Matthew. I protect Lady Willow.”

Knowing that city guards were stationed today, Matthew nodded.

Matthew turned to Willow and said, “Alright. Stay here and don’t go anywhere. I’ll be back soon”

“I know,” Willow replied sweetly.

Matthew

walked away, looking back several times, only moving on once he saw Willow obediently standing still.

As soon as he disappeared into the crowd, Willow and Nona exchanged a glance and separated,

Not far away, Athena saw this and quickly followed.

Behind her, Trina asked in confusion, “Why would she deliberately send Lord Matthew away? She’s not planning to meet her drunk, father, is she?”

Athena smeered coldly. “She cherishes her life too much to walk into danger alone. She must’ve made arrangements.

1. s. Let’s follow and find out.”

The two avoided the crowd and circled around the back of the building.

Willow was heading toward the side quarters.

Behind the building was a prove it was seldom visited by anyone

Willow was clearly going there to meet Daniel,

Athena climbed a slope and hid in a concealed spot. Sure enough, Willow soon appeared alone in the woods

“Where’s Nona?” Trina Said in surprise.

Athena also found it odd. Willow dared to come alone.

Just then, Daniel appeared. The two quickly ducked into the bushes.

Before speaking, her eyes welled up with tears.

Her reaction shocked both Athena and Trina

They never thought Willow was foolish. After all, she had once gotten Athena oled to the army for three years.

She had thought Willow would have some backup plan, maybe an ambush to beat Daniel up. Clearly, she was wrong

Daniel grew angry. “No money, no deal. Don’t forget, I have your secrets. If you don’t obey, I’ll ruin you”

Athena and Trina exchanged glances. They were right. Daniel held something over Willow. No won she obeyed him.

“Five thousand cons. You think that’s nothing?” Willow’s tone turned fierce. “All these years, I’ve paid off your and Brother’s debts. I’ve given you so || many benefits, and you know it

She added, “If you ruin me, what’s in it for you? Push me too far, and I’ll walk out of the duke’s estate. Then, you’ll get nothing”

Just then, Elisa’s voice suddenly rang out, “Willow, where are you?”

“Miss, where have you gone? Nona shouted
