The underworld queen come back and slays novel Chapter 249

Chapter 249

As the woman’s crisp and melodious voice fell, a wave of astonished murmurs instantly spread through the crowd.

“She’s the one from the bounty?”

“It was just posted! What are the odds?”

“That mole! I thought the description said that she was ‘stunningly beautiful‘ was an exaggeration. But now I think those words don’t even do her justice!”

Raven narrowed her eyes at the woman in front of her, who looked at least 80% like her former self.

Not only the resemblance, she even had an identical mole, in almost exactly the same spot. It was a wild coincidence.

Meanwhile, Tony looked at the woman before him. His heart, which hadn’t skipped a beat for anyone in years, suddenly began to race.

This woman’s beauty was beyond anything he had ever seen.

Enchanting without being vulgar, seductive without being cheap. She was the embodiment of rare elegance.

The woman didn‘

seem at all surprised by his reaction.

She simply gave a soft smile, then spoke gently. “Hello. Could you tell me who posted this bounty?”

That snapped Tony out of his trance.

Suppressing the sudden rush in his chest, he asked seriously, “You match all the information listed in the bounty?”

The woman chuckled as if she’d heard a funny question. “Of course. Why else would I take it down?”

Tony looked again at her face, that stunning beauty, the distinctive tear mole near her eye. It almost felt unreal.

He had been investigating this “Raven” for a long time. No matter where he searched, he couldn’t find anyone who matched the bounty’s specifics.

Desperate, he’d posted the notice today as a last–ditch effort.

Tony never imagined the person would show up immediately.

Just as he was trying to wrap his head around it, a cool, slightly icy voice rang out from the side. “Who are you?”

Everyone turned toward the voice.

Instantly, a chorus of gasps echoed through the crowd.

Even the supposed “Raven” couldn’t help the flicker of awe in her eyes when she saw Cassian approaching with a cold expression.

Tony froze.

Never before had a man made him feel overshadowed the instant he appeared. But this one did.

In both looks and aura, Tony felt outmatched.

And as that realization hit him, his gaze darted toward the new “Raven.”
