Chapter 42

The moment Raven's voice faded, a dead silence enveloped the scene.

Everyone stared blankly at the invitation that landed at Adam's feet after hitting his face. They were all dumbfounded.

No one expected Raven to dare to throw the invitation into the butler's face.

Even more so, no one expected Raven to be so fearless as to say such a thing to Adam.

At this moment, a thought arose in everyone's mind: Raven was done here!

Even if the invitation she took out was real, and even if she somehow earned James's respect, Adam still represented the Fuller family.

Now, Raven had slapped Adam in the face with the invitation, and this was equivalent to provoking the Fuller family.

And provoking the Fuller family in the face at the family banquet? The lightest thing that would happen to her today was to have her legs broken and

thrown out.

Looking at the butler, who was stunned in place because of the shock, a strange smile gradually appeared on Amber's face.

Amber knew that her feeling was right. Raven was indeed not as weak as she was five years ago.

But Raven's brain was even more stupid, thought Amber to herself. It seemed that she didn't need to do anything today, and Raven wouldn't end well.

Then, under the gaze of everyone, the butler slowly came back to his senses.

Stiffly, he lowered his head, looked at the invitation at his feet, and slowly picked it up.

He opened the invitation and looked it over carefully several times, and then, his face became increasingly gloomy.

A moment later, he finally looked up, stared straight at Raven. His gaze sharp, as if it could freeze the air.

"Tell me," Adam commanded, "Where did you get this invitation?"

Hearing his question, Raven just shrugged. "What you need to determine is whether this invitation is real. As for how I got it, what does it have to do with you?"

The moment Raven's voice fell, there was a gasp of cold air from all around. Everyone thought Raven was doomed.

Adam, on the other hand, looked at Raven and sneered in anger.

"Do you know that the Fuller family's invitations are graded?" he said. "There are no more than five people in the entire Bastion who can receive the level of invitation you have!"

"With your status as a junior of the Henderson family, let alone now, you wouldn't even be qualified to receive this highest-level invitation in your next life!"

Everyone around was taken aback when they heard Adam's words.

Because almost all the invitations were black and gold, just with different patterns on them, no one noticed that Raven's invitation was of a different grade.

Hearing Adam's words, their expressions changed again as they looked at Raven.

They thought that Raven had only offended Adam today, but they didn't expect that her crime might be far more than this.

And just as everyone was secretly startled, Adam's eyes narrowed as he looked

at Raven, and he reprimanded with a serious and stern expression.
