Chapter 675 Raven Questioned Thorian
Thorian frowned as disappointment flashed in his eyes. However, his expression returned to normal as he quickly followed behind Raven.
“Raven, from today onward, you will be engaged to Thorian. After some time, the two families will choose a good day to hold the wedding. I will officially hand over the family business to the two of you,” Orion said.
Orion was already standing on the stage. He smiled as he watched Raven and Theran walk over.
Then, he added, “I believe the two of you will take good care of the Lawrence family inside and out, and make the family business thrive.”
As soon as Orion finished speaking, deafening applause sounded below the stage. At the same time, they looked at Raven and Thorian, who had walked onto the stage.
Thorian raised his head slightly and waved at the audience. Along the way to the stage, he felt countless envious gazes. He was excited, and his hand in his pocket even trembled slightly.
He had waited too long for this day.
However, just as Thorian thought his beautiful dream was about to begin, Raven’s cold words suddenly brought him back to reality.
She told Orion, “Mr. Lawrence, I’m not here to get engaged to your son.”
“What? Not to be engaged?” Raven’s words stunned the guests in the banquet hall.
Thorian was slightly shocked. Then, he clenched his fists.
He had thought Raven had already changed her mind and planned to get engaged to him. He didn’t expect her to say this when his father and the other guests were present.
He said, “Raven, what are you talking about? It is our engagement party. If you have anything to complain about, you can discuss it with me after the party ends.”
He felt that Raven said that because she was dissatisfied with the preparations and arrangements the Lawrence family had made for the engagement party. After all, the people invited to this party were all relatives and friends of the Lawrence family, and none of the people from Raven’s family were present.
Thorian knew that Raven was not on good terms with her family, so he did not invite the Henderson family, who had been far away in Bastion, to the engagement party. Now that he thought about it, it seemed inappropriate not to discuss it with Raven in advance.
But Raven said, “There’s nothing to discuss between
us.”
Raven’s words made Thorian frown even more.
He said, “What do you mean there’s nothing to discuss? Raven, are you going back on your word? Mr. George Brown personally agreed to your engagement with me, and you also agreed to it in Broson City. Are you playing tricks on me by not keeping your word now?”
Raven sneered when she heard Thorian’s words. “Thorian, you only know that George wants me to get engaged to you, but you have no idea why he wants you to hold this engagement party.”
“What do you mean by that?” Thorian’s expression turned cold, and grievance and anger surged in his heart. “At this point, do you still want to deny our relationship?”
Hearing that, Raven said, “We had nothing to do with each other in the first place. The person with me in the hotel all night that day wasn’t you.
“Moreover, you keep saying that you haven’t done anything wrong to me. Then, who was the person who conspired with Rin to kill Cassian in Indigo Lab?
“You knew who kidnapped Hugmuinn’s brother, yet you kept your mouth shut. You even threatened Hugmuinn not to tell me the truth. Also, who was the person who stabbed Benedict to prevent him from informing me?”
Raven’s three questions were like heavy punches that made Thorian dizzy.
