Sivir had chearly and was discussing smatters with Emeris in the study, while Justin lay sprawled on the couch, bored out of his mind.
Seeing Seraphina, Justin couldn't help but raise an eyebrow in surprise.

"Dad and I were just discussing this. When we contacted Orion last time, he brushed it off multiple times, hinting that money isn't what he's after He paused at this point and gave Seraphina a knowing look.
Seraphina clenched her jaw slightly in the silence. Haha! Was Orion smart enough or lucky enough to find her without Sergio? "What does he want, then?" Justin asked lazily from the side.
"Naturally, the best option would be marriage. That scumbag Orion isn't going to pass up such an opportunity. Compared to you, all other material things are insignificant. You're the most valuable person. in the entire family." Justin said, a hint of mockery in his tone. Seraphina's expression froze slightly. Naturally, she understood the deeper meaning behind Justin's words.
Was Orion's intent not obvious enough tonight? He'd even hinted at reconciliation, expressing his regres and lingering feelings.
But to her, it was nothing but pathetic and heart-wrenching.
Whether he was sincere or not didn't matter.
Using a debt of gratitude to trade for her affection? How laughable! A sharp pain jabbed at Seraphina's heart, making her feel deeply uncomfortable.

Justin stuck out his tongue sheepishly and quickly stated his stance.
Td "I'm on your side, obviously! Seraphina can marry anyone she wants, but definitely not Orion. That guy is blacklisted in this family-no forgiveness, ever!" Seraphina was fed up. She stood up with a cold snort.
"If he thinks he can blackmailwith this, he's wrong. I won't admit I owe him a thing!" The three men of the Crosses shamelessly nodded in agreement.
Having reached this conclusion, Seraphina's mood improved significantly.
Around eleven that night, she treated herself to a long bath, applied a face mask, and got ready for bed.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhen she opened her phone, she saw a new message from someone with a familiar, all-black profile picture. It was Orion.
His message read, Just friends." message Seraphina twitched her lips in disdain, letting out a faint scoff.
This guy had just threatened her a minute earlier, telling her to stay away from Kaveh.
Now he had the audacity to message her? She ignored the message.
As she turned off her phone and drifted away, sleep began to take over.
Meanwhile, Orion stared at his phone, his expression cold and brooding.
The screen displayed a notification. "The other party has declined your friend request." Of course, he thought. He must have frightened her when she left.
After an entire evening's effort, he had made no progress. Orion felt as though he stood at the edge of a bottomless abyss, powerless and desperate.
