The four women at the table all showed subtle shifts in their expressions when they heard Hazon's words and
looked toward Raven.
They understood very well. Although Hazon said Valhalla wouldn't overlook them, whether or not they were
actually admitted was still uncertain.
Just moments ago, they had each tried flattering Hazon several times, even making attempts to get closer to
him. While Hazon had shown a bit of interest, it was nothing compared to how directly he was approaching
Raven.
As they looked at Raven's impossibly flawless face, the four women frowned in displeasure.
Raven, however, didn't notice the change in their expressions. She looked calmly at Hazon and asked, "Joining
Valhalla? | remember there are sconditions to be met, right?"

Hazon looked at her serious little face and suddenly chuckled.
Then, with a broad wave of his hand, he said in an extremely generous tone, "Conditions? Who cares about
conditions? Whether you can get into Valhalla or not. It's all up to me!"
With that, he picked up a wine glass filled with red wine and placed it heavily onto the glass table in front of him.
The crisp sound of the wine glass hitting the table rang out.
Alongside it was Hazon's bold voice. "Con, down this glass, and we can talk about anything."
Raven looked at the red wine on the table, and her expression gradually grew cold.
Seeing her reaction, the greasy smile on Hazon's face also faded a bit. "What? You don't want to drink it?"
Raven glanced at him coolly, then suddenly smiled. "You think you..."
But before she could finish the sentence, Ash tugged at her sleeve.
In the next moment, Ash put on an apologetic smile and said to Hazon, "Mr. Jenkins, I'm really sorry. My friend is
allergic to alcohol. I'll drink this for her!"
As soon as she said that, she picked up the wine glass and downed the red wine in one go.
Hearing this, Hazon glanced up and down at Ash, who had a refined face and a hint of bold spirit in her
demeanor. The irritation stirred up by Raven's coldness finally started to ease a little.
Ash, noticing the shift in his mood, let out a subtle sigh of relief.
Then, she leaned slightly toward Raven and whispered in her ear, her voice low enough for only the two of them
to hear.
"I don't think this guy is any good either, but even so, he's still upper management
in Valhalla. We might not want to cozy up to him, but we definitely can't offend him, or we'll have endless
trouble."
Before Raven could respond, Ash turned back toward Hazon with a smile.
"Mr. Jenkins, I'm really sorry, she's not feeling well today. | should take her back." As Ash spoke, she reached out
to pull Raven along and make a swift escape.
Although Ash did want to join Valhalla, she also wanted to do it based on her own merit, not through shady
shortcuts.
But before they could leave, a glance from Hazon made the two bodyguards at the door step forward, blocking
their path.

Ash frowned and turned to look at Hazon. "Mr. Jenkins, what's the meaning of this?"
Hazon chuckled. "Your friend looks perfectly fine to me. You two leave so soon. What would that say about my
reputatio
Elizabeth, who had brought Ash and Raven here, also looked at Ash with disapproval.
She said, “Ash, | spoke on your behalf quite a bit to get you this meeting with Mr. Jenkins. Now you want to leave
as soon a you arrive? How am | supposed to recommend anyone else to Valhalla in the future?*
Hearing Elizabeth's words, Ash's face showed a flicker of hesitation.
It was true. She'd only gotten this opportunity to meet Hazon thanks to Elizabeth.
Leaving like this would indeed por her in an awkward position.
After a few seconds of inner struggle, she turned toward Raven.
