Chapter 499 I’ll Break Your Legs
Anxiousness creeping in, Thorian rushed forward to stand in front of Raven.
“Lady Valor, you-” Thorian began.
Just as he was about to ask whether Raven had succeeded in rescuing the members of the Sirius Pack, he spotted George stepping through the front gate.
“Lady Valor, why is he with you?” Thorian asked.
Raven glanced at Thorian, relieved to see him and Hugmuinn unharmed, and asked, “Have you met him before?”
“Boss, he’s the one who saved my little brother,” Hugmuinn explained calmly as he walked over to stand beside Thorian.
After speaking, he instinctively shot a glance at Thorian standing beside him.
He truly wanted to expose Thorian right then and there, but he had no solid proof.
And he knew Thorian’s personality well. Without irrefutable evidence, Thorian would argue back and might even turn the tables on him.
So if he was going to expose him, he had to do it privately–he’d speak to Raven alone later.
‘Even if he saved Mubinn, this man came out of nowhere. Hugmuinn searched for so long and couldn’t find Mubinn. How did he manage to get him out so easily and deliver him right to us?
‘I have every reason to believe he was sent here to harm us, Thorian frowned inwardly.
George, who hadn’t paid Thorian much attention before, turned a cold, piercing gaze toward him after hearing those words. If not for Thorian being one of Raven’s subordinates, George would’ve already killed this loose–tongued man.
Even if he didn’t kill him, he didn’t want to see this eyesore flailing about in front of him either.
“Could you make me a cup of tea?” George asked Raven, suppressing his killing intent.
George didn’t want to scold Raven’s team in front of her as it would only embarrass her. Besides, it had been ages since he‘ d tasted her tea.
‘Tea?‘ Raven blinked, ready to refuse, but the moment her eyes met George’s, the refusal caught in her throat.
A strange sensation flickered through her heart again–but it passed quickly.
‘He saved Hugmuinn’s brother, and he helped me earlier at the shooting range. Making him tea isn’t entirely out of line, she reasoned to herself.
With a rational excuse, Raven turned to George and said coolly, “Wait here,” before heading toward the kitchen.
Seeing Raven actually go to make tea, Thorian couldn’t hold back his fury any longer.
His expression darkened as he turned a frigid stare toward George, demanding, “What exactly are you after? Why are you deliberately getting close to my master?”
Before Thorian could finish, George lazily lifted a hand.
In the blink of an eye, three fresh scratches appeared across Thorian’s neck.
