The underworld queen come back and slays novel Chapter 90

Chapter 90

“Let’s go take a look,” Carl said, and without waiting for a response, he headed straight for Cassian.

Isla, seeing her father’s eagerness, felt a surge of pride. ‘How dare a nobody like that even think about competing with me for Cassian?‘

Carl approached Cassian and, without any airs of seniority, greeted him with a smile, “Cassian, what a coincidence!”

Cassian looked at Carl with a cool indifference, acknowledging him with a formal, “Mr. Thornton.”

Raven, hearing Cassian’s form of address, was surprised.

Although she hadn’t met Carl in person, she had gathered information on the heads of Regalhold’s five major families.

She recognized him instantly as Carl Thornton, head of the Thornton family.

It seemed Cassian might be from the Lysander family, another one of the five.

‘That explains why Hugmuinn couldn’t find any information on him.’ Raven thought.

If Cassian was part of the five families, it made sense. Their information was classified within the national security system, inaccessible without specific

authorization.

While Raven’s thoughts raced, Carl turned to her with a smile, “And you, young lady?”

“I’m Raven Valor.”

“Valor?” Carl looked puzzled, as if trying to recall any prominent Valor families in Regalhold.

Isla jumped in, “Father, there’s only one minor Valor family in all of Regalhold. They wouldn’t even qualify for the outer circle of tonight’s banquet.”

Carl nodded in understanding.

Cassian nodded slightly. “General Drakon is hosting a banquet to celebrate Vyrdenia’s fourth general. It’s a hard invitation to decline.”

Raven remembered Drakon mentioning a promotion celebration ten days ago.

“I’ll go with you,” she offered, committed to keeping her word to cooperate with Drakon.

But Isla scoffed, “You? Do you even know what kind of event that is? Not even the head of the Valor family, let alone a nobody like you, would be qualified to attend.”

Carl shook his head. ‘Women from such minor families are just so unsophisticated!

To think she’d dare to utter such nonsense about attending the general’s banquet.

However, both Isla and Carl were stunned when Cassian’s handsome face broke into a slight smile. He nodded to Raven, “Alright, I’ll have someone

arrange an invitation for you.”

Raven shook her head. “No need, someone from the military will deliver it.”

At Raven’s words, Carl’s gaze shifted, his opinion of Cassian’s taste in women plummeting, Isla, on the other hand, looked at Raven as if she were beyond foolish.

“Someone from the military is going to personally invite you? If such an idiot actually exists, they’re a disgrace. People like that should get out of the Vyrdenian military!”

Just then, Raven’s phone rang

The caller ID displayed–Drakon.
