The Valkyrie Returns and Slays (Raven)

Chapter 428

Chapter 428 Are You Threatening Me?

After a while, Raven was escorted through the Ortega family's grand gates by the butler, who led her straight into Estella's study.

Inside the study, Raven gently placed Benedict, whom she was holding, onto the sofa. Then, she turned to Estella and spoke directly, cutting to the chase. "Miss Ortega, you didn't invite me here just to thank me for saving Helena, did you?"

Estella showed a faint smile.

She leisurely poured a cup of coffee for Raven before speaking with a smile, "Miss Valor, you don't seem like someone from the Sunset Empire. May I ask which country you're from?"

Raven glanced indifferently at the mug placed before her but didn't touch it. Instead, she looked directly at Estella and replied, "What does where I'm from have to do with why you called me here, Miss Ortega?"

For a brief moment, Estella's expression froze.

response.

However, her composure quickly returned as she said, "I believe you're a smart woman, Miss Valor, so I'll get straight to the point."
