The underworld queen come back and slays novel Chapter 366

Chapter 366 Should I Salute You?

Raven didn’t think it was necessary. Even back when she was just a lieutenant general, it was questionable whether Tony truly deserved her salute, let alone now that they were equals.

Miles said, “Raven, listen to me.”

He noticed the resistance on Raven’s face, and though his expression remained gentle, there was an unmistakable authority in his tone.

Miles didn’t know what Raven had gone through during her five years in the military, but it was clear that she had no regard for the rigid hierarchy that defined it.

If she kept this attitude, she was bound to run into trouble.

Right now, he needed to make her understand the importance of acknowledging the rank difference between her and Tony.

Otherwise, when Lionel introduced her to Tony later, she might come across as disrespectful, and that could easily lead to Tony taking offense.

The consequences would be unthinkable.

Raven glanced at Miles’s increasingly stern expression but didn’t outright refuse. Instead, she replied tactfully, “Didn’t you say I’ll meet him later? When he comes over, I’ll ask him if he wants me to salute.”

Miles frowned, but seeing Raven had compromised a little, let out a weary sigh and decided to drop the matter.

Raven was so well–behaved and sensible. What else could he do but trust her to follow through? He couldn’t bear to say anything more.

Raven noticed the mix of disapproval and reluctant resignation on Miles’s face, and a faint smile tugged at the corners of her lips.

Without offering any explanation, she began pushing Miles’s wheelchair, weaving through rows of soldiers toward the central platform.

As they passed, many soldiers frowned at the sight of Miles being pushed forward.

Stories of him repeatedly causing himself to be seriously injured to impress Lionel had already spread across the entire southwestern military district.

At this moment, when the soldiers saw Miles’s appearance, they subconsciously thought that it was just another one of Miles’s stunts.

But with Tony present and their military discipline in mind, none of them voiced their dissatisfaction.

No one noticed that amid the crowd, after a few soldiers glanced at Miles, they fixed their gaze on Raven, who was pushing Miles. Their eyes were brimming with disbelief.

“General Valor is pushing Miles? No way, how could this be happening?”

Their murmurs were so faint that no one else heard them.

When Raven wheeled Miles to a stop in front of the platform, the two men on stage had already exchanged greetings. Tony’s gaze immediately landed on Raven, who had stopped at the base of the platform.

As he took in her now–ordinary appearance, a trace of regret flickered across his face. ‘What a waste of such beauty, he thought.

But recalling the news from Hiemaly yesterday, confirming that Raven was indeed his sister, his expression grew more serious as he looked at her.

Noticing Tony’s gaze, Lionel followed it to Raven and Miles.

The moment Lionel saw them, his face darkened slightly.

Still, after a long, deliberate look at Miles, he led Tony down from the platform.

He then put on a polite, formulaic smile and said, “Commander Bradley, let me introduce you to Captain Henderson, who, even at over sixty years old, continues to fight on the front lines.”

Tony finally shifted his gaze away from Raven and turned to Miles, nodding slightly. “Captain Henderson.”

Already nervous under the attention of Tony, Miles’s heart med even faster when Tony greeted him directly. Almost instinctively, he tried to stand up from his whe Successfully unlocked!
