Chapter 431 Ambition

Raven chuckled at John's self-righteous remarks. “John, are you seriously saying that you so-called 'renowned doctors' couldn't even determine whether I cured Helena back then? If that's the case, maybe you should all just quit. Save your countries the embarrassment."

The moment Raven's words landed, John and the surrounding doctors' faces darkened even further.

John locked his gaze on Raven, his eyes so cold and heavy that it felt like the air itself could freeze.

But then, recalling the report his subordinate had just delivered, a smirk tugged at his lips. "Whether we stay in this profession isn't for a killer quack like you to decide.

"Helena Rickard's most trusted aide is already here. If you value your life, you'd better fulfill your promise-kneel, apologize to these doctors, and swear to leave the medical field forever!

“Otherwise, I can't guarantee if Lunshire decides to make you their sworn enemy."

The surrounding doctors immediately chimed in, their voices rising in unison. "Kneel, apologize, and get out of the medical field!"

As the doctors' taunts echoed around her, Raven's expression grew visibly colder with each passing second.

Raven was just about to deal with those fools when a sudden commotion erupted near the villa's entrance.

Henry entered, dressed in a sharp black suit with a white flower pinned to his collar. His expression was heavy, his presence commanding.

Trailing behind him were eight men, moving in sync as they carried a crystal coffin into the banquet hall.

Raven's gaze swept over the coffin's occupant, and she instantly recognized Helena, the head of Lunshire.

She had heard rumors of Helena's death but hadn't fully believed them. Now, faced with the undeniable truth, she realized Helena was truly gone.

"They're from Lunshire!" Gasps and murmurs spread through the banquet hall as the guests noticed the Lunshire insignia on the collars of the coffin bearers.

"Why would they bring a coffin here?" someone whispered, their voice trembling.

"Could it be... the person inside is the head of Lunshire?" another voice speculated, barely audible.

Most of the crowd had never seen Helena in person, but the sight of the coffin, combined with John's earlier remarks, left little room for doubt. The woman inside had to be Helena.

As the realization dawned on them, the crowd instinctively stepped back, clearing a space for the Lunshire members to proceed.

Henry and the members of Lunshire carried the crystal coffin to Raven's feet.
