The Valkyrie Returns and Slays (Raven)

Chapter 362

As Lionel finished speaking, Miles raised a trembling finger at him, his entire body shaking uncontrollably. "You... you..." Overwhelmed by a storm of emotions, Miles felt his chest tighten as blood surged violently within. Suddenly, he coughed up a mouthful of blood.

He could never have imagined that Commander Bradley, a man he had always revered and could only look up to, would host a commendation ceremony for the despicable man who had stolen his achievements.

Even the new general, whom he regarded as omnipotent, personally attended to celebrate Lionel's so-called victory, built on Lionel's shameless theft of Miles's hard-earned glory.

Lionel stood before him, smug and triumphant. Perhaps he said all this to mock him, to rub salt in the wound and show him how foolish he'd been.

Lionel's grin widened as he watched Miles cough up blood, a glint of satisfaction flashing in his eyes. Though he wasn't worried about Miles retaliating, the thought of silencing him with a few words was the outcome he wanted.

After all, dealing with the dead is always easier than dealing with the living.

"Captain Henderson, how are you holding up?" Lionel asked, his tone dripping with mock concern.

Ken had initially planned to quietly record Lionel's words, hoping to gather evidence of his theft of Miles's achievements. But to his surprise, Lionel's words were flawless, each like a dagger stabbing straight into Miles's heart. It took Miles nearly half a minute to steady himself.

Finally, after a few deep breaths, he spoke in a weak voice, "I'm fine." His dark eyes locked onto Lionel, burning with hatred as he prepared to speak again.
