Henry froze as Raven's words, devoid of any hint of jest, struck him like a cold blade.
In that instant, no matter how unwilling he was, he dared not utter another useless
word.
After all, he wasn't ready to die just yet.
Antoshot Raven a darkened, brooding glare before turning to his subordinates beside him and commanding,
"Take Ms. Rickard's body to the station for an autopsy."
The police officers nearby immediately moved toward the crystal coffin upon hearing the order.
From her vantage point on the second floor, Estella's frown deepened with every passing second.
She had intended to use John and the Lunshire members as tools to pressure Raven into submission, forcing her
to work for her. But to her dismay, Raven had effortlessly dismantled the entire situation.
She was just a girl in her teens, yet she held an S-Rank invitation to the World Medical Conference, which was
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇttruly remarkable.
It was precisely because of this brilliance that Estella beceven more resolute in her determination to bring
Raven into the Ortega family as her subordinate.
Estella knew all too well that if Raven walked away unscathed today, it would be exponentially harder to corner
her in the future.
After a brief moment of hesitation, she pulled out her phone and sent a message.
Downstairs, just as Antoand his team were about to take Helena's body away, Ethan's phone suddenly rang
from the pocket of his coat.
Ethan's expression gradually turned serious as he listened to the voice on the other end of the line.
After hanging up, he turned to Raven with an apologetic look and said, "Miss Valor, something urgent has come
up with the World Medical Conference. I'll have to ask for your guidance another time."
Raven nodded slightly, and Ethan strode toward the door.
Almost the moment Ethan's figure disappeared from the hall, Antonio's voice turned cold and sharp as he barked
out orders to the police officers beside him, "Take her away!"
Earlier, with Ethan present, Antohad reluctantly honored his promise not to act against Raven after she
released Henry, out of respect for Ethan's position as the World Medical Conference president.
But now that Ethan had left in a hurry, Antosaw no reason to keep his word. "So, you're breaking your
promise now?" Raven's voice was icy as she watched the police officers closing in on her like predators circling
their prey.
She hadn't planned to let Antooff easily for trying to pin the blon her, but she hadn't expected him to
strike first.
"Enough talk! You're the prsuspect of Ms. Rickard's death. Cwith us for interrogation and an autopsy. If
you're innocent, we'll let you go. But if you're guilty, you'll face the consequences!" Antonio's righteous tone
rang out, but Raven couldn't help but let out a cold laugh.
With a flick of her fingers, Raven sent a silver needle flying, striking Antosquare in the chest.
Antolet out a muffled groan, dropping to one knee as pain surged through him.
The surrounding officers froze, their faces filled with panic and disbelief. "Captain, are you alright?"
"How dare you launch a sneakattack on me?" Antogritted his teeth, his voice trembling with fury as he
barked at his subordinates, "Get her! If she resists, shoot her dead!"
The police officers quickly surrounded Raven, closing in on her from all sides. “Hands up!” Before the police
officer in the center could finish his command, a blur of movement flashed before his eyes.
In an instant, the gun in his hand was gone, snatched away with lightning speed.
"Fire! Shoot her now!" Antonio's voice cracked with desperation, his anger boiling
over.
He seethed with rage. He had never met anyone so audacious, so blatantly defiant of the Sunset Empire's laws.
The chilling sound of guns being cocked echoed through the hanquel symphony of impending violence.
Successfully unlocked!
But just as the police officers’ fingers tightened on their triggers sharp sound of hurried footsteps cfrom
outside the banquet hall.
Moments later, the door was pushed open with a resounding thud.
"Who is Raven Valor?" The voice was calm yet commanding, as a group of young
men in silver uniforms strode into the hall.
