The underworld queen come back and slays novel Chapter 684

Chapter 684 Can’t Delay Any Longer

Edric panted as he held onto the door frame. His body was on the verge of collapse, but he was still alive.

“How is that possible?” Thorian exclaimed, and the fire on his body intensified again, completely engulfing him.

When Raven saw Thorian had fallen silent, she raised her hand and retracted the flame.

Edric was seriously injured and on the verge of death, to begin with. When he saw such a terrifying scene, he finally couldn‘ t hold on anymore and collapsed to the ground.

‘Why is this happening? Wasn’t Raven about to get engaged to Thorian? Why did she kill Thorian?‘ Edric wondered.

“Mr. Lysander, what happened to you?” The guests hurried forward to support Edric, but were shocked to see the dagger stuck in Edric’s back.

“Mr. Lysander, who wanted to kill you?” they asked.

Edric ignored everyone’s questions. Instead, he looked in Raven’s direction and shouted with all his might, “Raven!” ‘Perhaps I had misunderstood Rave,‘ Edric thought. Whatever had happened between Raven and Cassian, Raven’s killing of Thorian made Edric feel that Raven’s betrayal back then might just be a plot. But he arrogantly thought it was the best choice for Cassian to leave Raven and let Tuesday take Cassian away.

Edric couldn’t help but sigh inwardly, ‘How could I have been blinded and believed Tuesday’s nonsense? Why didn’t I think about it? Since Tuesday left me and our child and ran away from home more than ten years ago, it meant that she did not care about us at all.

‘If Tuesday is living a good life now, why would she come and take Cassian away for no reason?‘

Of all his regrets, Edric now knew the sharpest. It was trusting the wrong person and pushing his youngest son into hell himself.

‘However, it’s not too late for me to realize it now. Raven has a communication chip. She will be able to contact Cassian, Edric thought.

When Raven saw Edric covered in blood, she quickly ran over. “Mr. Lysander, what happened? Who did this to you?” Edric was excited as he looked at Raven. Just as he was about to speak, his vision suddenly went black, and he fainted. Raven quickly took a hemostatic pill and stuffed it into Edric’s mouth. Then, she instructed Martin to send Edric back to her villa immediately. At the same time, she held Benedict’s hand and walked out the door.

When she reached the door, she turned to look at the stunned guests in the banquet hall and said coldly, “Burn Thorian’s corpse to ashes, and from today on, I don’t want the Lawrence family to exist in Regalhold.”

Raven’s words decided the fate of the Lawrence family, which also left the guests overjoyed. ‘Since Raven and Thorian’s marriage doesn’t work out, does that mean we still have a chance?‘ they wondered. ‘If the young people of the right age in our families can meet Raven and get chosen by her, our status will soar.‘

Raven seemed to have seen through their thoughts and continued, “I already have a fiancé. His name is Cassian. Other than him, I can’t be with any other man. If I find out that you have any crooked thoughts in the future, you will have the same ending as the Lawrence family.”

Raven’s words frightened the guests out of their wits. They nodded quickly and replied, “No, we don’t dare. Miss Valor, you‘ re just like a god. We wouldn’t dare to have any crooked thoughts.”

Seeing that she had achieved her goal, Raven ignored the guests present and rushed to the villa with Benedict.

On the other side, at the Cherry family’s residence in Frihamen City in Forreb.
