Eliza grabbed Caleb by the cor, gritting her teeth as she threatened. "If you ever mention that again. I''ll have your people cut off your dick."


    Caleb immediately felt a chill in his lower body, staring at Eliza in disbelief


    After her threat. Eliza issued a coldmand. Tina, drag him away and beat him senseless. Make sure you knock some sense into that thick head


    of his


    help but think to herself, ''I wonder how much more Caleb''s narcissistic brain can handle before it finally breaks


    Eliza couldn''t help.


    It turned out, Caleb was truly as stubborn as theye.


    Tina covered Caleb''s mouth and dragged him into a secluded corner, where she proceeded to beat him ruthlessly. Yet, he still refused to change his


    ways.


    "Eliza, you''ve gone too far, Caleb shouted furiously the moment his mouth was freed. "You''re taking advantage of my patience with you. How dare you treat me this way now? You''ll never marry me. A woman like you, mean and fiery, doesn''t deserve to be my maid!"


    p! Without a hint of emotion, Eliza shoved the dirty rag back into Caleb''s mouth. "Keep going," she coldly instructed.


    Tina immediately dragged him away again. During the period, no one noticed that Caleb had been dragged into a corner of his own estate and beaten repeatedly without anyone seeing.


    In the end. Caleb was so overwhelmed that he couldn''t hold back his tears. Only then did Eliza finally call for it to stop


    Eliza silently withdrew her gaze and ordered Tina, "Knock him out and leave him somewhere. I''m done?


    She was exhausted. She had no more patience for dealing with this idiot. From now on, it was best to avoid him entirely. After Ti


    Tina dealt with Caleb. Eliza finally returned to Evelyn''s room.


    Evelyn had somehow fallen asleep, and the maid standing nearby had


    inexplicably nodded off as well. Only Mary sat calmly at the side, quietly drinking water.


    Upon hearing Eliza''s return, Mary looked up and met her eyes. "All done?"


    Eliza nodded and then asked with a hint of confusion, "Mary, what''s going on with them!"


    Mary replied casually, "Next time, keep the noise down when you''re beating someone. It wouldn''t be good if someone heard."


    Eliza''s eyes widened in realization. "Mary, did you hear themotion from me beating Caleb outside and then knocking them out to keep Madam Nevill and the maid from hearing"


    "It wasn''t knocking them out. I just put them to sleep for a while." Mary corrected Eliza, setting down her cup and pressing down on a dried recipe


    it the side.


    Mary then stood up, moved toward the bed, and tucked away a small bottle of scented oikced near it


    "Don''t worry; it''s not poison, just a calming scented oil. It''s good for someone like Madam Nevill, who''s getting up in age, Mary exined.


    Over everything was in ce, Mary looked at Eliza, "Is there anything else that needs to be dealt with?" It was as If she was implying something


    Eliza shook her head. She understood who Mary was referring to, but she decided to let it go for now.


    Dealing with Caleb was enough for the day. If she went after Adeline, it might cause Mary unnecessary trouble. Unfortunately, things weren''t about to wrap up so easily


    Before Eliza and Mary even made it out of the Marquis''s estate, members of the Stonor family arrived.


    "Eliza, you''re finally back." A male voice rang out


    From the sound of in Eliza immediately recognized who it was. She rubbed her forehead in frustration. I just dealt with Caleb, and now Dn shows up she thought.
