Finished. 

Seraphina go into the car and left. Orion’s misunderstanding offended her. After three years of marriage, he still didn’t know what kind of person she was. 

Despite this, she quickly regained her composure, and there wasn’t much emotional fluctuation. 

She wouldn’t walk down that road again. Orion had nothing to do with her anymore. 

Hansen hummed a tune as he glanced at her, asking, “saved you today. How are you going to thank me?” 

“What do you want? A gift? Or a bank transfer?” 

Hansen looked at her with a half–smile and said, “It’s the first time a woman has tried to buy me off! But I’d rather you offer yourself.” 

Seraphina shot him a sidelong glance and chided, “Dream on!” 

“Why not? How could you reject me just like that? I deserve a chance!” Hansen snorted. 

Seraphina coldly gave him a look and said, “I’ve always thought of you 

a sister.” 

Darn it! 

Hansen’s mouth twitched, and he said, “Anyway, I’ll prove that I’m the most suitable man out there for you.” 

Not sure where his confidence came from, Seraphina couldn’t help but smile. “Alright, suit yourself.” 

Hansen’s enthusiasm usually didn’t last longer than a month. 

Seeing her smile, Hansen felt a pang in his chest. He wouldn’t let anyone else take this chance from him. 

Back home. 

Olivia eagerly called to check on the progress. 

Seraphina had to tell the truth. When she mentioned Orion, she paused briefly, glossing over it lightly. 

“Julia is like a pimp; she’s more professional than any madam. She is wasting her talent working at my company; she should be working at a nightclub instead!” 

Seraphina lowered her gaze and chuckled. “Uprooting her will expose others who are corrupt. Julia is capable, but morally corrupt. She’s just a clown. As long as she doesn’t cause trouble, she can stay for now.” 

The next morning. 

Seraphina noticed that Thomas had replaced her old office chair as soon as she arrived at the office. She was pleased with Thomas’s efficiency. Just as she was making herself a cup of coffee, she heard a loud noise as the door banged open. 

“Seraphina, are you trying to mess with me? I asked you to have dinner with Mr. Marx, and you just left me there.”

hide them with a scarf, but Mr. Marx’s peculiar tastes were truly unsettling, almost too much for her to handle 

She thought it over and concluded that Seraphina must have backed out. Otherwise, Mr. Marx wouldn’t have let go of such an easy catch. 

Seraphina waved Thomas out, then let out a strained spile at Julia. 

Julia felt guilty under Seraphina’s gaze. She quickly lost her momentum. 

“Fine, as long as you sign this contract, we can put this behind us.” 

She tossed the contract onto Seraphina’s desk. 

Without looking up, Seraphina tapped a few times on her phone and played back the recording of last night’s dinner conversation.
