Raina North heard Elias Hawthorne’s words and couldn’t help but let out a cold laugh. She guessed right; this person was Elias Hawthorne.
That damn man, he actually hid such important matters from her!
As for her, she also hid her identity as The Celestial Alliance Leader, something Elias Hawthorne might not even know yet. Raina chose to ignore this fact. In any case, Elias Hawthorne was in the wrong. It was his fault!
"Miss..." Elias Hawthorne suddenly spoke.
Raina’s expression turned uglier. Over the top, truly over the top, that Elias Hawthorne dared to address her as Miss!
Elias Hawthorne didn’t plan to acknowledge her. He intended to continue flirting around as if he were unmarried!
Look, Claire Lowell is the best example.
If Elias Hawthorne knew what Raina was thinking at that moment, he would probably have the feeling of being unable to clear his name even if he jumped into The Serpent River. At the same time, he would marvel that if this woman becomes unreasonable, even a deity couldn’t handle it!
"Speak if you have something to say." Raina’s words carried anger, showing no courtesy whatsoever.
The others couldn’t help but inhale sharply; was this woman not courting death today?
"Since you represent The Celestial Alliance, your alliance must give everyone an explanation for this incident."
"An explanation? Explain what? The explanation is that brothers from The Celestial Alliance couldn’t afford to eat, and as a last resort, took this desperate measure. Lord of the Dark Tower, this happened under your nose, so you cannot shirk responsibility. Therefore, don’t you owe everyone an explanation?" Tʜe source of this ᴄontent ɪs novᴇlfire.net
Pip Finch and Lune were stunned, truly bold.
Even though Lune had already guessed Raina’s identity, she was still extremely shocked. Orion, that was too bold. This was the Lord of the Dark Tower; if truly angered, their Celestial Alliance wouldn’t be a match.
Lune couldn’t help but tug Raina’s sleeve, signaling with her eyes, Orion, that’s enough...
But Raina ignored it. She tilted her chin slightly and stared at Elias Hawthorne, "Why isn’t the Lord of the Dark Tower speaking? Feeling deeply guilty, wanting to publicly apologize to my Celestial Alliance and compensate us?"
Elias Hawthorne’s voice was indifferent, "Your Celestial Alliance dares to demand compensation?"
"Dare, why wouldn’t we dare? We are the victims, the side that suffered grievance. Why wouldn’t we dare? Haven’t you heard the saying that the barefooted are not afraid of the shod?"
As soon as Raina spoke, a big shot couldn’t remain seated and stood up, pointing at Raina, "Nonsense! Absolute nonsense. You are the aggrieved side? Was someone holding a knife to your throats forcing you to launch a surprise attack at night? With such words, do you even care about your reputation?"
"How dare you! Talking to the Missy like that!" Pip Finch immediately stepped up angrily, "Let me tell you, you can scold The Celestial Alliance, but scolding the Missy is not allowed. If you dare to insult her again, I’ll show you why flowers are so red!"
With that, he fiercely glared at the big shot, looking eager to fight.
Before, he wanted to brawl with these big shots but had no opportunity. They were very cunning, letting their subordinates handle the fistfights while they hid like cowards, afraid of getting a scratch.
Now, finally having a place full of big shots, if he didn’t seize the opportunity and beat them up, he feared there wouldn’t be such a chance in the future.
Raina saw through Pip Finch’s little scheme instantly. She thought that after today, the first thing she needed to do was find Pip Finch another master. He must train his skills further; otherwise, he might really not know how he died.
