The Valkyrie Returns and Slays (Raven) novel Chapter 424

Chapter 424 Be My Girlfriend

John was momentarily at a loss for words.

He had no doubt that if he actually made that call, Ethan would break his legs.

Downstairs, the doctors didn’t know the full details of what had happened, but Raven’s words had given them a pretty clear picture.

A bet was a bet. Since Ellie had lost, she owned up to it. No excuses, no backing out.

John, once a figure of authority and respect, now found himself under the disappointed gazes of his peers. His attempt to twist the truth to shield Ellie had cost him their trust.

The weight of their disapproval left John speechless, wishing he could vanish into thin air.

In the end, he clenched his jaw and said to Ellie, “This is between you and her. I’m staying out of it.”

“Professor…” Ellie’s voice cracked as she shook her head in despair. She couldn’t accept it–she wouldn’t accept being forced out of the medical field like this.

Raven’s patience was visibly wearing thin as she watched Ellie continue to stall. “Fine, if you won’t quit, then you’ll have to trade your legs for it.”

With a flick of her wrist, two silver needles appeared in her hand, their cold glint sending a chill through the air.

Before she could finish her sentence, a silver needle shot out from Raven’s hand, striking a critical pressure point on her thigh.

Ellie let out a blood–curdling scream as her thigh instantly went numb, completely losing all sensation.

A wave of sheer panic washed over her, and the horrifying thought of being crippled consumed her mind.

Overwhelmed by fear, she broke down and begged, “Please, I’m begging you! Don’t cripple me! I’ll quit! I swear, I’ll leave the medical field!”

She should’ve just done that from the start.

Raven withdrew the silver needle, not sparing her a second glance, and took Benedict’s hand, heading straight out of the

villa.

Ellie watched Raven’s figure disappear, wiping away the tears at the corners of her eyes.

Slowly, her gaze turned darkened, brimming with venomous hatred.

Just as she was about to take Benedict to his parents, Henry Vega hurriedly ran down the stairs. “Miss Valor, wait a moment!”
