Chapter 223 Darling
Tony looked at Raven’s expression and listened to her voice, his handsome face suddenly stiffening.
At this moment, he felt as if an invisible slap had slapped him across the face.
He thought, ‘This woman has a man?
‘Could it be that the feeling I have just now, that this woman was interested in him, was just his imagination?‘
But Tony quickly rejected this idea.
Raven had just smiled at him like that, and if he were to say that she was not interested in him at all, he would not believe it.
Then, there was only one possibility, which was that Raven was trying to be associated with multiple men at the same time.
Thinking of this, Tony couldn’t help but reveal a trace of disgust.
He thought, ‘As expected, women all over the world are the same. Regardless of whether they have a man, they all want to throw themselves at handsome men.‘
He even had no doubt that if he showed a little interest in Raven, she would not hesitate to dump the guy on the other end of the phone and throw herself into his arms.
It was a pity that he did not like this kind of ordinary–looking and fickle woman, and he was even less interested in fighting over a woman with a man who had no taste and was definitely not as handsome as him.
At the same time, Raven, who was wholeheartedly focused on her precious baby, didn’t even spare Tony a glance.
She patiently calmed Cassian down and stopped him from coming over to blow up the prison.
Finally, she asked him to do her a small favor outside before hanging up the phone.
Nine days passed in a blink of an eye.
During this period, despite the Vyrdenian mainstream media’s best efforts to suppress it, the atrocities committed by the Sunset Empire against the members of the Sirius Pack were still spread out.
Hundreds of millions of Vyrdenians were filled with blood and anger.
Many thought the Vyrdenian administration would demand an explanation from the Sunset Empire soon, or even that the military would dispatch a large number of soldiers to attack.
However, the news they received was that Emperor Grant had invited the leader and soldiers of the Sunset Empire to Vyrdenia a few days ago and had been getting along well with them every day.
As soon as the news came out, countless citizens began to organize one protest after another, demanding an explanation from Emperor Grant.
Some radicals even threatened to make it impossible for Emperor Grant to remain in his position if he didn’t keep those Sunset Empire people in Vyrdenia forever.
It was the morning of the tenth day since Raven was imprisoned in the underground prison.
At the heart of Regalhold, the highest ruling place in Vyrdenia.
At this moment, Lorne and nearly thirty high–ranking officials of Vyrdenia were standing in front of Emperor Grant.
Almost all the high–ranking military officials were so intimidated by the icy aura surrounding Emperor Grant that they dared not even breathe.
Suddenly, a cutting–edge device resembling a tablet was thrown out by Emperor Grant.
Along with the sound of the device crashing to the ground, Emperor Grant’s furious voice, cold enough to freeze the surrounding air, rang out.
He asked, “How did this get out? Didn’t I order a complete lockdown on all information about the Sunset Empire? How did everyone find out what they did to the Sirius Pack?”
Silence engulfed the room.
Seeing this, Emperor Grant’s fury intensified.
He turned directly to a high–ranking official in charge of intelligence. “Virgil, you tell me!”
Successfully unlocked!
The man in his forties, named Virgil Rhodes, stepped forward with a bitter expression.
He said, “Your Majesty, to prove to the world that they are the strongest nation, the Sunset Empire contacted media outlets globally and broadcasted their atrocities against members of the Sirius Pack.
“Countless of Vyrdenian compatriots reside in various countries, news this big is impossible to contain!”

After Virgil finished, a Vyrdenian high–ranking official beside him hesitated for a moment before stepping forward.
He said, “Your Majesty, there’s no point in dwelling on how the news got out. We need to focus on appeasing the people!” Another person said, “Indeed, Your Majesty. If we don’t quell the public outrage, the consequences could be disastrous!”
Emperor Grant’s face darkened even further as he listened to their words.
He glared at them and demanded, “Appease the people? Then tell me, how?”
“Your Majesty, General Valor had the Sirius Pack members record a video when they hung the ten Sunset Empire soldiers on the gates of the military…”
