Inherit Billions (Seraphina and Orion) novel Chapter 206

Chapter 206 She Cheated on You 

Alexander was about to nod, but one look at Emeris’s icy expression made him stop. He hesitated and was unable to respond. 

Flora felt a surge of satisfaction when her daughter stood up for her so fiercely. 

She decided to take advantage of this moment to clear her name. 

After all, with so many eyes on them, it was an opportunity not to be missed. 

“That’s right, Seraphina; you don’t understand. Back then, your uncle and I went through so many hardships…unlike your Aunt Katherine.” 

Seraphina cut her off. Her tone was icy and impatient. 

“Comparing what? Who’s older? Who’s more shameless?” 

As soon as she spoke, everyone in the banquet hall turned their attention to her. The atmosphere was frosty, and chilly vibes spread throughout the room. 

Flora’s complexion turned pale as fury surged within her. 

“You… you’re so disrespectful! How dare you speak to your elders so rudely?” 

Seraphina cast a disdainful glance at her. 

A single look said everything without needing words. 

Elders? 

Did she even deserve that? 

A homewrecker had no right to demand respect. 

Grace bit her lip hard. Her body was tense, and her face was ashen with anger. 

She had hoped to use this occasion to mingle with other socialites and maybe even get close to Orion. 

After the mother and daughter caused the scene, everyone would now know that she wasn’t a true Cross heiress. 

Instead of fleeing in disgrace, Grace decided to play the victim, painting Seraphina as cold and harsh. If she couldn’t win, then no one would. 

Her voice trembled as if she were on the verge of tears, making it seem as though Seraphina had bullied 

her. 

“Seraphina, why do you have to speak so cruelly?” 

Seraphina glanced at her, her expression unyielding and her voice cold. 

“Quit pretending to be innocent. I can say things that are much harsher. Want to hear them?” 

Chapter 206 She Cheated on You 

The mother and daughter had overstepped their heard aries, shamelessly clinging to the crosses. Well, too bad for them Seraphins had no qualme abwn tearing them apart, bir by bit, until they were utterly exposed, leaving them with no place to hide. 

Grace’s lips trembled, and she could feel the burning gazes of those around her. She lacked the courage to confront Seraphins, but was the willing to surrender easily? She couldn’t bring herself to do that either. 

After a brief pause, she turned her teary eyes toward Alexander 

Grace grumbled, “Daddy, I don’t know what I did to uplet Seraphina” 

Her pitiful act was enough to make anyone sick. 

Among the guests were several actresses from the entertainment industry, but none could match Grace’s performance. 

Seraphina’s voice was cut through, sharp, and cold. 

She asked, “Is he really your dad? Your real dad is a security guard at one of the high–end clubs under the Cross Group, isn’t he? Just because you’re spending our Cross family’s money and living in our house, do you think that makes you one of us? Your entire family is nothing more than freeloaders, desperately clinging to my family and refusing to let go.” 

She turned to Alexander and spoke ruthlessly. 

“Uncle Alexander, you’d better be careful. You might end up raising someone else’s child and even taking care of their husband.” 

Ever since Flora and Grace left the house last time, Justin has ordered an investigation into their secrets. 

Gossiping was one of Justin’s specialties. 

Alexander’s face instantly darkened, his eyes cold, as he stared at Flora in disbelief.
