    Chapter 399 Impersonating A Hiemal Member


    Raven remained expressionless in the face of everyone''s reactions, though a cold glint shed deep in her eyes like a diver


    of ice.


    Beside her, Hiemaly''s brow subtly furrowed the moment he heard the words "President of the Star God Association


    "He had told Saxon not toe to the Sunset Empire.


    But he still came.


    Just as a vague sense of foreboding began to stir in Hiemaly''s chest, Ellie''s phone suddenly buzzed in her pocket.


    As if realizing something, she swiftly pulled it out.


    When her eyesnded on the message disyed on the screen, she froze.


    But the next instant, a flood of overwhelming glee surged in her gaze.


    Then, she suddenly turned to look at Raven. The joy in her eyes turned cold in an instant.


    "Dr. Valor-may I ask why you''re impersonating a Hiemal member?"


    In an instant, all eyes locked onto Raven.


    "Impersonating a Hiemal member?"


    Impersonating a Hiemal member?


    "Impossible! Ellie, are you sure you''re not mistaken?"


    "Exactly! The consequences of impersonating someone from Hiemal weren''t something any sane person would dare to risk. No one would be foolish enough to try that."


    "Right. Miss Valor isn''t crazy-plus, even Ethan held her in the highest regard. Why would someone like her do something so reckless?"


    They had already misjudged this "angel in white" once before.


    No one wanted to make the same mistake a second time.


    Seeing the crowd defending Raven, Ellie gave a mockingugh.


    She ignored their doubts and stared coldly at Raven as she continued. "You didn''t expect I''d just happen to know someone from inside Hiemal, did you? And that person just so happens to be in charge of Hiemal''s personnel records."


    "He once told me that female members of Hiemal are extremely rare-and most of them are over thirty. So when you imed to be a Hiemal member earlier, I already had my doubts.


    "But I didn''t want to wrong you, so I messaged him to confirm.


    "Just now, he gave me a very clear answer. There is no such person as you in Hiemal."


    When her wordsnded, the surrounding doctors were all stunned.


    Some of them had known Ellie for quite some time, and they''d heard her mention-intentionally or not-that she had a good rtionship with someone inside Hiemal.


    If she were just trying to falsely use Raven, she wouldn''t have dragged a Hiemal member into it.


    So it meant... there was a real chance Raven wasn''t from Hiemal.


    Realization dawned-and many of their gazes toward Raven turned from shock to subtle suspicion.


    Raven listened quietly, then slowly turned her head toward Hiemaly.


    Hiemaly''s expression had grown noticeably colder.


    Hiemal''s most important rule was crystal clear: No member was allowed to reveal any internal information to outsiders. If anyone broke this rule, they''d be expelled from Hiemal-without question.


    Hiemaly didn''t say a word to defend or argue with Ellie. Instead, he silently pulled out his phone and sent a message.


    Ellie, watching both Raven and Hiemaly remain silent, assumed they were too guilty to speak.


    She nced down at the B-level invitation Raven had snatched from her and sneered again.


    Sessfully unlocked!


    "Also, the voice you used when speaking with Dr. Ethan on the phone just now. It was clearly different from the one you used when speaking to the rest of us!


    "So let me guess. You didn''t just fake being a Hiemal member... You also pretended to be the mysterious doctor who knows the Nine Meridians Technique and who Dr. Ethan respects, didn''t you?"
