Inherit Billions (Seraphina and Orion) novel Chapter 161

Chapter 161 Teaching the Oclianians a Lesson 

Hansen lifted his wrist and deliberately flaunted his watch in front of Orion. 

“Thank you. This is the best gift I’ve ever received, Seraphina. It’s something I’ll treasure forever.” 

His gaze was full of affection as he looked at Seraphina 

Seraphina’s heart tightened. Hansen’s gaze was warm and intense, so tender that it seemed as if it could overflow, leaving her no room for escape. 

She couldn’t ignore the piercingly cold stare from Orion, which was heavy and oppressive. 

Seraphina had thrown a birthday party for a man, given him gifts, and played the piano for him. 

However, Hansen was the one who received those gifts, not him. 

Orion felta dagger drive into his chest as he watched the scene unfold. The pain was silent and deep. 

He felt like the roots were ripping out memories that once belonged to him. 

It was an unbearable agony. 

After a few seconds, Seraphina lowered her eyes and smiled faintly before looking up at Hansen. She teased him politely. 

“This model might be worth something in a few years. You should take excellent care of it.” 

Sarah watched Seraphina stand between the two men. Orion showed no sign of leaving: his gaze was fixed on Seraphina. 

What a nightmare! 

She hurried over and grabbed Seraphina’s arm, making up an excuse to get her out of there, 

“Seraphina, you need to help me. I can’t find my bag!” 

Seraphina caughton quickly and followed, “You’re always forgetful.” 

Orion watched Seraphina’s retreating figure until she was out of sight, then finally turned his gaze away. 

With a fake smile on his face, Hansen stood in front of him. 

“Mr. Dros, Seraphina doesn’t want to deal with you. Stop showing up in front of her; it’s an eyesore. 

In an instant, the temperature around them dropped to freezing. 

Orion’s entire demeanor turned icy, his gaze dark and frigid. 

“Colombo, unless you want me to wreck your party, stay out of my sight.” 

His voice was commanding, dripping with undisguised disdain. 

He wasn’t here to celebrate Hansen’s pathetic birthday–did Hansen even deserve that?

Lucius had been listening from the sidelines. He quickly stepped forward and pulled Hansen away, forcing 

a smile. 

“Hansen, don’t take it to heart. That’s just how he is. Oh Happy birthday!” 

He dragged Hansen away, but he returned after a moment. 

Lucius noticed Orion’s cold, brooding expression; his gaze was locked in one direction. 

He asked with a fake smile, “What are you looking at?” 

Orion didn’t respond. 

Lucius didn’t give up. After years of friendship, he knew Orion inside out. He hummed knowingly. 

“Looking at Seraphina, huh?” 

Orion shot him a cold glance and asked, “Can you stop talking for once?” 

Lucius chuckled, seizing the opportunity to tease him. 

“Orion, don’t tell me you’re really starting to miss your ex–wife“?” 

Given all of Orion’s reactions, how could he have misunderstood? 

Even if it was guilt, it didn’t justify getting frustrated over Seraphina celebrating someone else’s birthday and giving them gifts. 

It was almost beneath the dignity and poise of Dros Group’s president! 

Orion’s eyes darkened. His breath stiffened as he spoke in a cold, menacing tone. 

“Lucius, I haven’t settled accounts with you, and you have the nerve to ask me this?” 

Who was the one who declared that Orion was the intended recipient of Seraphina’s gift? 

And who had assured him that Seraphina would definitely attend Orion’s birthday party? 

And the result? 

Their birthdays were only a day apart; everything Seraphina did was for Hansen. 

She didn’t do those things for him! 

If it weren’t for Lucius, would he have had such high expectations?
