Chapter 185 You Have No Place in Eldoria
Being pityful doesn’t grant anyone an advantage.
Seraphina and Jennifer were different–both loved but couldn’t have.
At least she had fought for it and openly hoped for Orion’s love.
But in those ten years, did Jennifer ever try? No, she didn’t.
Jennifer glared at her and stated, “But he likes you
Seraphina shook her head.
Finished
Ms. Perez, let’s be reasonable! Is it my fault that he likes me? You liked him unilaterally; why didn’t you let him go
Why search for excuses for her unrequited love? Why push the blame on others? What kind of twisted thinking is that?
She had always thought that Jennifer, a business powerhouse, would be more straightforward and dignified. Behind the scenes, she was anything but that. Seraphina decided it wasn’t even worth wasting words on her.
“Ms. Perez, we can end this conversation now. If you prefer, I could arrange for Hansen to meet with you. and you
can clear things up. We’re all adults here–if it works, great. If not, let’s not waste everyone’s time. How does that sound?”
Seraphina thought her suggestion was more than fair.
Rather than pining away in secret, Jennifer would forever be in the dark about her chances. It was better to just ask and know for sure.
Jennifer’s eyes briefly flickered with hesitation.
“You purposely suggested that to humiliate me in front of him, didn’t you?”
Those words left Seraphina speechless.
She spread her hands, and her gaze was cool.
If Jennifer doesn’t appreciate her help, that was on her.
“Do as you wish. Anyway, I’ve done all I can. You have no stake in this business and no place in the social circle. Staying here won’t end well for you.”
Her words made it clear–Jennifer was being shown the door.
There was no place for Jennifer in all of Eldoria.
Jennifer glared at Seraphina with icy eyes, her entire demeanor exuding a powerful and intense aura. The air around them was thick with tension.
“Fine, Seraphina, don’t blame me for what happens next.”

Seraphina raised an eyebrow, meeting her gaze without fear.
Had she ever been polite?
“Thomas, see her out!”
In the following days, Jennifer disappeared without a trace.
Thomas reported that she had returned to the company’s headquarters in Vlago.
Seraphina was a little surprised.
Did she really leave just like that?
It didn’t seem right.
However, it was the best, and it finally gave her some peace.
Seraphina attended a business cocktail party with Olivia.
By coincidence, they ran into Hansen and Monica.
Monica was visibly startled when she saw Seraphina.
She quickly recovered and warmly took Seraphina’s hand.
Finished
“Seraphina, I’ve been thinking about you lately. I’ve asked Hansen to invite you to have tea several times- why haven’t you come to visit?”
Seraphina inwardly scoffed–she wasn’t about to seek out trouble.
On the surface, she remained poised, her demeanor as elegant and aloof as ever.
She gave a courteous smile.
“Mrs. Colombo, work has kept me busy. Besides, Hansen has just recovered from his illness; he needs to
rest.”
Monica was relieved to see that Seraphina bore no grudges.
She wanted to bring up the painting, but she was too embarrassed to ask her about it.
Seraphina said she had no intention of mentioning it.
Deep down, Monica was filled with regret and pain.
After a few pleasantries, they finally put the unpleasantness behind them.
