Chapter 408 Embarrassment
He clenched his teeth and realized just how careless he had been.
Lost in thought, he suddenly noticed Seraphina stepping out,
Thomas stood beside her, holding her bag. Instead of heading in his direction, the group walked toward the other side, where a sleek Maybach sports car had appeared out of nowhere.
Orion’s gaze darkened slightly as he remembered Seraphina mentioning yesterday that she would be going with someone else.
It seemed she hadn’t taken his words to heart.
Had she made plans long before?
Quietly, Orion tightened his fists, his expression turning cold. Adjusting his shirt collar, he strode over, eager to discover who had the audacity to snatch her away right before his eyes.
Meanwhile, Thomas opened the back door for Seraphina. Little Dani had been waiting inside for a while, ready to be her escort.
As Seraphina bent down, her foot barely touching the step, a large hand suddenly grasped her arm tightly, pulling her back.
The fierceness and chilliness that radiated from the stranger immediately made her aware of who it was.
“Mr. Dros.”
Thomas was taken aback.
Instinctively, he wanted to protect Seraphina. Thomas hesitated, unsure whether to pull her back from Orion’s grip.
However, Orion held Seraphina firmly in his embrace, exuding an overwhelming presence. His eyes glinted with a sharp, icy determination as he spoke, his tone dripping with a mixture of playfulness and warning.
“Didn’t we agree that I would pick you up? Who dares to take you away?”
He didn’t show any signs of rage; his face remained dark, but his words were laced with a chilling arrogance, an overwhelming sense of superiority that seeped through despite his attempts to contain it.
Seraphina was trapped in his hold. She didn’t struggle. Instead, she leaned slightly into his grip, her eyes reflecting a nonchalant coldness.
Just then, a wealthy young man exited the car, his voice icy and dripping with sarcasm.
“Mr. Dros, how dare you touch my people?”
A dangerous glint flashed in Orion’s eyes, but the next moment, he froze.
Justin stood there, hands shoved deep in his pockets, a cold smirk playing on his lips. However, a dark and foreboding expression filled his face, directing a warning gaze towards Orion.

Orion paused. He lowered his gaze and cast a glance at Seraphina, who wore a lazy, mocking smile. Gritting his teeth, he subtly loosened his grip.
The atmosphere became tense and stagnant.
Thomas wished he could vanish into thin air.
Seraphina casually adjusted her dress and climbed into the car without so much as a sideways glance at Orion.
Hah, there’s something wrong with your head. You think you’re so great, don’t you?
Orion was momentarily lost for words. So that reckless rich kid was Seraphina’s brother?
