The Valkyrie Returns and Slays (Raven)

Chapter 449

"Miss Valor, you've got the wrong idea. I just think someone as exceptional as you might become a target for those with bad intentions. The Ortega family could be your support system, making sure no one gives you a hard time."

Estella wore a warm, friendly smile, as if she hadn't threatened Raven.

Saxon shot Estella a disgusted look, his brows furrowing deeply. "Star God Association members don't need your so-called protection!"

Estella froze, her body stiffening as humiliation surged through her. She clenched her fists so tightly that her nails dug into her palms.

As the darling daughter of the Ortega family, she had always been treated with respect by every faction. No one had ever humiliated her so openly.

But with Saxon's status looming over her, she had no choice but to suppress her anger and force a smile.

She said, "Mr. Valor, you're right. I was out of line. I didn't realize Miss Valor was part of Star God Association."

"General! General Hinton!" Just as Estella was about to say something more, shouts of alarm suddenly erupted from the Sunset Empire soldiers nearby.

Everyone immediately turned to look in Finnley's direction.

His chest was drenched in blood, his eyes shut tight, his face pale as death, and his body completely still as if he was dead already.

"General Hinton!" One of the soldiers, trembling, reached out to check for signs of life. The moment he confirmed the truth, he stumbled backward and collapsed to the ground in panic. "He's dead! General Hinton is dead!"
