The Valkyrie Returns and Slays (Raven) novel Chapter 421

Chapter 421 Making A Bet

The other doctors in the room frowned as they watched Raven casually insert a couple of needles into Helena and then confidently declare she was cured.

“You think poking a few needles is enough to call it a treatment? Do you take us for fools?” one of the doctors scoffed, his tone dripping with disdain.

“Miss Valor, you know full well that Ms. Rickard’s condition is beyond saving. And you’re just putting on a show to bluff your way through, right?” another chimed in mockingly.

“No wonder you couldn’t even get an invitation and had to snatch someone else’s. How do you even have the audacity to call yourself a doctor?” a third voice jeered, the words cutting like a blade.

Off to the side, John had only suggested letting Raven try, so he could shift the blame on her if Helena couldn’t be cured. But now that Raven had barely done anything, he was worried people might question his motive, so he quickly said, “Dr. Valor, I know your skills are excellent. But as a doctor, you need not only medical expertise but also ethics. This kind of careless treatment shows you’re completely irresponsible toward your patient.”

Raven had no interest in arguing with ignorant and jealous people.

She simply turned to Henry and said, “Ms. Rickard will regain consciousness within five minutes.”

“What a load of nonsense! Ms. Rickard is clearly on the brink of death. How could she possibly wake up in five minutes?” a doctor said.

Another echoed, “Enough with the theatrics!”

-The room erupted in outrage after hearing Raven’s words.

Aurelia’s face turned grim, as if she were ready to keep Raven there permanently.

At that moment, Ellie suddenly stepped forward, her face cold as she looked at Raven and said, “Miss Valor, Ms. Rickard holds a position of great honor. She won’t tolerate your reckless talk!

“You said she’d wake up in five minutes? Fine, I’ll give you five minutes. But if she doesn’t wake up, it’ll prove you’re just a fraud without medical ethics, and you’d better stop practicing medicine for good!”

Raven looked at the aggressive Ellie, then calmly smiled and replied, “And what if she wakes up?”

Then she turned back to Raven and said, “Miss Valor, if Ms. Rickard wakes up within five minutes, I’ll take back what I said and kneel to apologize. But if she doesn’t, you’ll kneel and apologize to every single person here. Deal?“

By now, Raven had been thoroughly provoked by Ellie and the rest of the doctors. She scanned the room, then fived her gaze on Ellie.

“Alright,” she said coolly. “If you’re so eager to kneel, I’ll give you that chance.”

Ellie breathed a sigh of relief, and a wave of vindictive satisfaction surged through her. She thought, ‘Ms. Rickard’s condition was far too severe. Even Mr. Reed wouldn’t he ohla to wako har in five minutes. Raven is just a worthless fraud. If she could pull that off, pigs might fly.”

Successfully unlocked!

Ellie was completely confident that Raven was going to lose the Det.
