Inherit Billions (Seraphina and Orion) novel Chapter 192

Chapter 192 Irritated 

Seraphina gazed at Orion, who stood before her with those deep, captivating eyes. 

His stare was both alluring and dangerous. 

She didn’t want to remember how deeply she had once fallen for him, to the point where it was irreversible. 

What had just happened felt like a farce. 

This was utterly ridiculous. 

Olivia glanced at her. 

“Should I leave?” 

She waited for Seraphina’s cue. 

What was Orion even worth? 

Seraphina raised an eyebrow and said, “No need. There’s no secret between us.” 

Orion’s brow furrowed but quickly returned to its usual calm. 

His voice was mellow and low. 

“About earlier… I’m sorry. I’ll make sure she learns her lesson. And… thank you for not letting go.” 

Finished 

He knew that in that situation, if Seraphina had let go, Hannah would’ve deserved what came to her. 

Seraphina had every reason to abandon Hannah. 

But she didn’t… 

Hannah had wronged her countless times; even Orion hadn’t expected this outcome. 

Seraphina flashell a brilliant smile, her eyes reflecting the shimmering lights. 

“You don’t have to thank me. I’m different from those in your family–I have a reputation to maintain.” 

She always preferred to use her brightest smile to deliver the coldest words. 

The next day, Orion took Hannah back to the Dros estate. After that, Hannah was sent out of Ascotia overnight, and no one knew where she went. 

Seraphina was about to head to the office when she received a message from Justin. 

“Come home. There’s a terrific show to watch” 

The message was short and cryptic. 

Seraphina thought about it for a moment before deciding to turn back.

Without further hesitation, Seraphina sped back to the Cross Estate,

Emeris and Benjamin were in the garden. The two were tending to the flowers. When Benjamin saw Seraphina, he immediately stood up. 

“Ms. Seraphina, you’re home,” 

Seraphina smiled, twirling her car keys as she teased, 

“Dad, have you given up fishing for gardening?” 

Emeris shot her a glance and gestured inside with his chin. 

Seraphina raised an eyebrow. 

Her dad was intentionally avoiding someone. 

Who could be that intimidating? 

Just as she was about to step inside and see for herself, someone came out. 

“Seraphina, you’re finally back! Your sister and I have been waiting for you for a long time.” 

A woman, all false smiles and feigned warmth, stood at the doorway. 

Seraphina’s smile faded upon seeing her. 

If there was anyone in the family she liked the least, it was this woman standing before her. 

Her name was Flora Royle, the wife of Uncle Alexander–Emeris’s younger brother. 

Which made her Seraphina’s aunt. 

When Seraphina’s grandfather was alive, he didn’t approve of their marriage. Therefore, Flora never took the Cross surname. 

Flora had already had a daughter when she met Alexander. He left his wife, who had done nothing wrong. and brought Floga and her daughter, Grace Royle, into the family. 

That incident had enraged Seraphina’s grandfather so much that he had a heart attack and ended up in. 

the ICU. 

As a result, Flora and her daughter’s status within the family had always been awkward. 

They had lived in Alexander’s house for many years. Though they never had a wedding, Alexander had considered Flora the mistress of the house. 

Seraphina’s family had little to do with these matters. 

They didn’t care much about their affairs. 

Emeris built the Cross Group from the ground up, and Alexander had nothing to do with it. 

Out of family loyalty and to avoid unnecessary trouble, Emeris had let Alexander handle the business in

Even though the business had incurred losses for two years, nothing was ever done about it.
