Inherit Billions (Seraphina and Orion) novel Chapter 380

Chapter 380 Reminder 

In that fleeting moment, she realized something about the room felt strange yet warm. 

It was, after all, the kind of married life she had once imagined before her divorce. 

However, the man standing beside her was now Wilson, Somehow, the obsession she once felt seemed to fade away. 

A delayed wave of pain shot through her wrist. Wilson half–embraced her as he guided her to the sink to rinse the wound. 

The posture was intimate, almost invasive. Seraphina struggled to pull her arm back. Wilson assumed it was due to the pain and adjusted his touch accordingly. He gently released her arm and cradled her injured hand, blowing on it with tenderness. 

Seraphina glanced at him. Wilson was unbelievably gentle. 

She felt a gentle tapping on her heart, causing it to tremble slightly. 

Seraphina quickly lowered her gaze, pulling her arm away. She gave a light smile and said, “It’s fine; it doesn’t hurt anymore.” 

She hid the turmoil within her heart immediately. 

The burn was merely a drop of oil, now washed under cold water, leaving only a bright red mark on her pale skin. It was too stark a contrast, standing out jarringly against her fair complexion. 

Wilson frowned, a hint of regret flashing across his face. 

*I shouldn’t have let you cook. It was careless of me,” he said, holding her wrist firmly as he led her out of 

the kitchen. 

His grip was strong, making it clear he wouldn’t let her stay in the kitchen. 

Seraphina smiled slightly. She had experienced such accidents many times before. She would grit her teeth, endure the pain, and find that the satisfaction of cooking a meal would make it all worthwhile- especially when she prepared each dish for Orion. 

But he would never know. 

“What happened to Ms. Lovely?” 

Little Dani ran over, looking displeased as he saw his dad holding her hand. 

Seraphina sat on the sofa and explained, “Nothing, just a little splash of oil. But the kitchen…” 

The steak was going to burn! 

Wilson pressed her shoulder and said, “I’ll have someone take care of it. You stay put.” 

Feeling embarrassed for making a mess after asking for help, Seraphina watched as a maid came out of her room. She took over the task Seraphina hadn’t finished, blending into the background without a word.

Chapter 380 Reminder 

Little Dani watched anxiously, staring at the small red spot on her wrist 

“It’s really not a big deal. I can do it myself,” Seraphina protested, feeling the fuss was too much 

Wilson raised an eyebrow and said, “Don’t you trust me?” 

Seraphina chuckled softly, feeling a bit helpless. “It really doesn’t hurt.” 

It was just a slight stinging sensation–nothing she couldn’t ignore. 

Unconvinced, Wilson placed her hand on his knee. The two were now very close. 

He lowered his head, gently applying the ointment. The coolness of it soothed her, even making the sting vanish. 

Not bad at all.. 

But as the cooling sensation faded, Wilson’s fingers lingered on her arm, his warmth seeping into her skin, leaving her feeling a bit stiff. 

She lowered her eyes, and something flickered rapidly in them. She wanted to leave; if she stayed any longer, she might really lose herself in this moment. 

Nearby, Little Dani couldn’t take it anymore. Still holding on? 

He bluntly broke the quiet atmosphere.
