Chapter 45

The moment Brian's voice dropped, the entire banquet hall suddenly fell into a deathly silence.

No one could quite believe what they had just heard.

This five-star colonel came here, not to attend the Fuller family banquet, but to deliver an acceptance letter to Raven?

And, Regalhold University? Is it really the Regalhold University they were thinking of?

Before everyone could recover, the girl from earlier took a step forward and looked at Brian cautiously.

"Sir, may I ask if the acceptance letter you came to deliver is from one of the colleges in Regalhold or from Regalhold University itself?"

The moment the girl finished speaking, all eyes were on Brian.

Everyone hoped he would give the answer, making it clear that it was from one of the colleges in Regalhold.

But when Brian Jennings heard the question, he looked at the girl as though she were a fool.

"Besides Regalhold University, is there any other college worthy of Miss Valor?" his brow furrowed slightly, and he said with an edge of amusement.

Of course, in his mind, even Regalhold University may not be worthy of Lieutenant General Valor.

Just because he knew that Lieutenant General Valor had decided to go to Regalhold University, he didn't dare to say anything to belittle Regalhold University, so he omitted the second half of the sentence directly.

However, even though Brian had only said the first half of the sentence, everyone present felt like his words were a bomb that had suddenly exploded in their heads.

The realization hit like a thunderclap.

Raven, who everyone had thought wasn't even worthy of the most basic college in Regalhold, was being handed an acceptance letter to the top university in Vyrdenia.

Some of the people who had ridiculed Raven the most now looked as though they'd been slapped across the face.

They had just been saying, not even two minutes ago, that she wasn't even qualified to enter the lowest-tier colleges at Regalhold.

And now, a five-star colonel was personally delivering her an acceptance letter to Regalhold University!

The slap of reality was sharp, and it had come far too quickly.

Amber, still reeling from the shock, managed to gather herself.
