Inherit Billions (Seraphina and Orion) novel Chapter 248

Chapter 248 Orion’s Nephew 

Hearing the familiar voice, Seraphina paused and turned her head slightly, only to see that it was indeed 

Orion. 

She last saw him on the island when he was walking toward her from the helicopter. 

She thought it was a dream. 

But it turned out to be real. 

It was astonishing that Orion managed to take her away from the gunfire and chaos. 

As she looked at him, an overwhelming tide of emotions surged in her eyes. She lowered her gaze, showing a polite but distant smile. 

“Mr. Dros, I genuinely need to thank you this time. 

Orion’s body stiffened as if her words had struck the softest part of his heart. The color quickly drained from his lips. 

He was already an outsider in her eyes. 

“You… as long as you’re safe.” 

A faint shadow crossed his eyes, but he continued to step forward, adjusting the cup in her hands with practiced ease. 

“Are you uncomfortable? Hungry?” 

Seraphina’s smile faltered as she stood there, frozen. 

“I’m fine; thank you for your concern.” 

She turned to her brother and said, “Justin, could you pour me some water? 

Justin grunted and immediately turned to give her a glass of water. 

As he handed it to Seraphina, he shot a triumphant glance at Orion. 

As Seraphina was about to take the glass, Orion quickly grabbed her wrist. 

“Wait a moment.” 

He turned slightly, picked up a straw from a nearby table, and placed it in the glass. 

“This way, it won’t tear your wound.” 

He smiled gently and handed her the water. Orion urged, “Drink up.” 

Justin rolled his eyes in frustration. 

Who cared about a straw?

The previous water she had was filtered seawater–never pure enough, always with a salty taste. 

She took a deep breath, and before she could hand the empty glass to anyone, Orion had already taken it from her. 

“The doctor’s here.“” 

A man in a white coat approached. 

“I’m about to start your checkup. Could you all keep it down?” 

He glanced at Orion and said, “You two should take this conversation outside.” 

Orion hesitated. He glanced at Seraphina before finally walking out. 

“You too!” the doctor said to Justin. 

Justin’s earlier smug expression deflated instantly. He reluctantly walked out. 

The room finally quieted down. 

Seraphina smiled at the doctor and said, “Thank you, doctor. I appreciate it 

The doctor raised an eyebrow and shook his head. 

“You’re not at all like the rumors suggest.” 

He spoke while pulling out a set of tools to check her heart rate and the impact of her wounds. 

“What rumors?” 

Seraphina asked. 

“The ones we see in the news. The spoiled heiress of the Cross Group, raised in privilege and with at temper to match, always getting her way, and a bit arrogant. Orion also mentioned that you’re stubborn and a bit headstrong.” 

This doctor didn’t mince words.
