Chapter 433 Ethan Arrived

"Understood!" The butler nodded and immediately headed downstairs.

By now, someone had already called the police station to report the situation.

Standing before Raven, the butler relayed Estella's message with a condescending air, as if he were doing her a favor But just as the butler assumed Raven would grovel to become a lackey for the Ortega family, she suddenly chuckled. She was thinking, 'An A-Level invitation? Becoming Ethan's student? Is that supposed to impress me?"

The butler noticed the subtle change in Raven's expression, and his brows furrowed deeply.

Fixing his gaze on her, he demanded, "Miss Valor, what do you mean by this?"

"Ms. Ortega is offering you a chance to save yourself. Keep being stubborn, and when the police get here, you'll be dragged straight to prison," he warned, his tone sharp. “And let me remind you, in our Sunset Empire, murder is a serious crime."

Raven let out a soft laugh, her calm demeanor only fueling the butler's frustration. "Go back and tell Estella Ortega, thanks for the offer, but I'm not interested."

The butler was utterly stunned by Raven's unwavering defiance.

"Fine, fine! I hope you won't regret this decision, Miss Valor," he spat, his voice laced with anger.
