Chapter 364 Didn’t Take Commander Bradley Seriously?
Miles noticed Raven’s expression and explained with a smile, “I once claimed I’d taken down over a thousand enemies, but that was just me being confused after a head injury. The real hero who achieved that was Brigadier General Fleming. “The higher–ups have already recognized his achievements and decided to hold a commendation ceremony for him. “Tomorrow morning, Commander Bradley will personally host the event. Brigadier General Fleming will introduce you to Commander Bradley, so make sure to leave a good impression.”
Miles wasn’t entirely certain that Lionel could secure the captain position for Raven, so he chose not to mention it. It was better to avoid raising her hopes only to let her down.
Raven raised an eyebrow at Miles’s words. She thought, ‘A commendation ceremony?‘
She had been wondering how to get Lionel to return what he’d stolen from Miles, and now Lionel was handing her the perfect opportunity on a silver platter.
If she didn’t take full advantage of it, she’d really be doing him a disservice.
Cassian and Hiemaly, it was said, had discovered something interesting in the Sunset Empire and didn’t return that night. Raven shooed Ken away after dark.
As for herself, she made do with an empty bed next to Miles for the night.
Morning came quickly.
Raven and Miles had just woken up when a middle–aged man in a captain’s uniform entered the ward.
“Captain Henderson, Brigadier General Fleming sent me to escort you to the commendation ceremony venue,” the man said.
Raven glanced at the wall clock, which had just struck seven, and asked calmly, “What time does it start?”
The middle–aged captain’s brows furrowed slightly at Raven’s question.
However, mindful of Miles’s higher rank, he replied patiently, “The ceremony begins at ten, but since Commander Bradley will be attending today, everyone needs to arrive early for a rehearsal to avoid wasting time.”
“Commander Bradley isn’t the type to care about these things. There’s no need to bother with such pretenses.”
Miles’s heart skipped a beat at Raven’s calm and indifferent tone.
He quickly warned her, “Raven, when you meet Commander Bradley, you absolutely cannot call him by his name. You have to address him as ‘Commander Bradley.
“And it’s not just him. Anytime you meet someone of captain rank or higher, you must use their title. At best, you’ll offend them. At worst, you’ll face penalties under military regulations.”
Raven glanced at Miles’s anxious expression, and a faint smile of amusement appeared on her face.
Seeing her completely unconcerned, Miles grew even more flustered.
“Raven, you have to listen to me!”
Watching Miles’s almost comical level of worry about her offending someone, Raven’s smile deepened.
Knowing that revealing her true identity would only make Miles doubt her, Raven decided to play along and nodded lightly. Alright, alright. I’ll call them by their titles.”
But her obviously dismissive tone did little to ease Miles’s concern.
Still, considering that he’d be by her side during the commendation ceremony, he chose not to press the issue further. The middle–aged captain’s cold gaze swept over Raven before he spoke again. “Come with me.”
“I already told you, Commander Bradley doesn’t care about this kind of thing. There’s no need to go there so early,” Raven replied. “Go back for now. Come back in two hours.”
The middle–aged captain’s expression darkened further as he fixed his icy stare at Raven. “Do you have a problem with Brigadier General Fleming, or are you just disregarding Commander Bradley?”
