Chapter 258 Seeking Forgiveness
Seraphina’s return wasn’t just a media frenzy–it reopened old wounds for many.
After all, she was the sole survivor of the plane crash.
Her brief statement quickly won over the public.
Even Kaveh’s studio decided to pull down their latest video out of respect.

“Her empathy shows in every detail. At a time like this, she’s still thinking of others. Seraphina’s heart is unmatched,” one comment read.
“She’s beautiful, kind, and thoughtful. I’d marry her in a heartbeat! Please, let her debut as a celebrity!” Another enthused.
One comment, however, stood out from the rest. “I’m a family member of one of the crash victims. We believe that, like Seraphina, they’re out there somewhere, going through an adventure. They’ll come home one day. We hope Seraphina keeps living well because she’s our beacon of hope.”
Seraphina had just gotten her new phone, and the top comment caught her eye. It was from a family member of one of the missing passengers.
She immediately replied. “Whether separated by time or distance, there will always be a day for them to return. Thank you for never giving up.
Perhaps it was her heartfelt words, or maybe someone behind the scenes lowered the media’s interest.
Either way, the storm eventually settled. No more reporters waited outside the Cross Group building.
With life back to normal, Seraphina didn’t rush back to work. Maybe the exhaustion from surviving on that deserted island was finally catching up to her, but she was genuinely enjoying the slow, leisurely pace of life.
Emeris was more than happy to indulge her. Every day, they went fishing, strolled through the city. boarded yachts, and even watched online shopping streams together. He organized parties for her, never hesitating to spend lavishly.
Life was peaceful and utterly beautiful.
Seraphina was surprised to receive a call from an unfamiliar number. She assumed it was a friend with a new number and answered excitedly.
“Hello, name please…” She teased.
The
person on the other end was silent for a second.
“Orion, came the deep, familiar voice.
Beep!
The call disconnected

Chapter 258 Seeking Forgiveness
Orion stared at the now–black screen of his phone: his expression turned grim.
Finished
He had been abroad for weeks, and his heart was aching from missing her. He was concerned about her health and mental recovery.
Right now, he wasn’t sure he had the right to worry about her at all.
He had watched Kaveh’s unreleased video countless times. Each viewing suffocated him with a deep ache.
Everyone online praised her bravery, resilience, and luck.
Only he saw through it all, sensing the pain and fear she kept hidden inside.
The moment he got off the plane, he couldn’t resist borrowing a crew member’s phone to call her.
And what happened?
Behind him, Ken carried the luggage. He observed Orion’s somber and withdrawn figure with caution. At last, he mustered the courage to inform his boss.
“Mr. Dros, that was William’s phone.”
