Chapter 500 It Was Thorian
Thorian clenched his fists, just about to explode, when he saw Raven walking out of the kitchen with a tray of tea.
As Raven stepped into the living room, her gaze froze when she saw Thorian’s injuries, and then instinctively shifted toward George.
“What happened to you?” Raven asked.
“He attacked me!” Thorian shot George a glare and complained to Raven, “All I did as question why he was getting close to you, Lady Valor, and warned him not to pull any shady tricks behind your back. He flew into a rage, attacked me, and even threatened to break my legs.”
Upon hearing that, Raven turned to look at George as if waiting for him to explain.
George didn’t bother defending himself. In his mind, he’d already blacklisted Thorian.
Raven lightly pressed her lips and said, “The tea is ready. Come and have some.”
⚫ Thorian was her subordinate. By rights, she should have stood up for him, but for some reason, just seeing George was
enough to snuff out her anger completely.
Somehow, she felt that George had his reasons for everything he did.
George was an incredibly proud man. If Thorian had truly provoked him with his words, then his harsh response wasn’t unjustified.
Suddenly, Raven became aware of where her thoughts were going and was startled by herself.
Thorian had been by her side for years.
Yet she’d only just met this man in white. And still, she found herself beginning to trust him.
Realizing this, Raven glanced at George with a complicated look, then said, “Thorian is my subordinate.
“If he did something wrong, it’s not your place to discipline him. Don’t let this happen again.”
With that, she cast Thorian a deep look, then turned and headed upstairs.
Even though Raven’s words sounded like a warning to George, anyone watching could tell that she hadn’t shown the slightest concern for Thorian’s accusations. It was clearly favoritism.
Sure enough, Thorian clenched his teeth in fury after hearing Raven’s response. His handsome features twisted in rage. George, however, didn’t spare Thorian a second thought. He was still gazing in the direction Raven had gone, a faint, almost imperceptible smile flickering in his eyes as he thought, ‘Even if my little disciple doesn’t remember me, her heart still leans toward me.‘
At that moment, Thorian, driven mad with rage, growled, “Don’t get too full of yourself-”
“Is this all you know–dirty, underhanded tricks?”
fel as though they were glued to the ground, held
He had no idea how George had done it, and his knees felt glued to the floor.
Meanwhile, Hugmuinn cast a glance at Thorian, then tiptoed to the door of Raven’s study and knocked gently.

“Come in,” Raven responded.
Hugmuinn pushed the door open and saw Raven completely focused on the computer screen.
He drew in a quiet breath and then solemnly said, “Boss, there’s something I need to tell you.”
“Hm?” Raven looked up at Hugmuinn.
Hugmuinn didn’t hold anything back this time and said directly, “Thorian colluded with a man of unknown identity. That stab to Benedict’s heart–it was him who did it!”
