Chapter 449 Seraphina Reigns Supreme In This House
Seraphina watched as the two women hurriedly made their way back.
Her expression grew colder, an icy glint deep in her eyes–how infuriating, haha.
Turning to little Dani, she gently took the boy’s hand and led him upstairs. “Let’s play tomorrow, okay? For now, it’s bedtime.”
Little Dani was still young. He had done remarkably well to stay awake this late.
As soon as he lay down on the bed, the boy was fast asleep.
After a while, when Seraphina descended, the lively atmosphere returned, with laughter and chatter filling
the air.
With a clear purpose in her mind, she sought out the two older women, who now avoided her gaze, their faces pale with dread.
“Seraphina, why don’t you take a break?” Emeris suggested as he approached her. “If there’s anything, let Justin handle it!”
Justin, who was on the verge of falling asleep, was speechless.
With a soft smile, Seraphina replied, “No, I have something important to deal with.”
Emeris raised an eyebrow and asked, “What is it?”
Seraphina hesitated for a moment, then said, “Dad, if I end up ruining the mood, don’t blame me. I know today is special, but I simply can’t tolerate this any longer.”
Emeris looked confused and asked, “What do you mean?”

Seraphina walked into the side room, her demeanor calm yet commanding. The two women trembled visibly; their faces paled compared to everyone else’s.
She lifted her chin slightly and gestured. “Those two over there–I’m sorry, I forgot their names. But what they said outside was utterly unacceptable.”
As Seraphina’s words hung in the air, everyone paused their activities.
The room fell silent.
Emeris frowned and asked, “What did they say?”
“Why don’t you ask them?” Seraphina suggested.
The two women scrambled to their feet, panic evident in their voices.
“We didn’t say anything! Seraphina, don’t slander us!”
“Yeah, we know you look down on us poor relatives, but we’re still family. Why are you so aggressive?”
They clung stubbornly to their denial.

Chapter 449 Seraphina Reigns Supreme In This Hood
The onlookers looked at those women, then turned to the icy demenor of Serghie
Nearby, Alexander cleared his throat and said, “Seraphina, don’t be memorable. It’s just one night, why make a scene? We’re all family here!”
Seraphina pressed her lips together, a light laugh escaping her
“I know, Uncle Alexander. It’s precisely because we’re frilly that my father and broken we will weste throwing this party and hosting everyone with the benthospitality and thoughtful Effa Howe
Her tone shifted as she locked eyes with the two women
“I’m sorry, but if being relatives means we can hurt each other, then I’d rather sever all fe
An unsettling silence enveloped the room.
No one knew what had transpired except for Seraphina and those two women
“What on earth happened?” Someone whispered.
“Yeah, what’s going on? Seraphina seemed fine all evening–what’s made her upset now?
Seraphina scrutinized the two flustered women, narrowing her eyes. “Not going to speak up, are you?”
The women stammered, “W–what do you mean? We haven’t done anything”
Seraphina smiled, her patience wearing thin. Since they refused to admit their wrongdoing the decided to take matters into her own hands.
With a cold laugh, she glanced at Justin and said, “Justin, I recall there’s a security camera in the backy Let’s pull up that footage.”
In a mansion like Crosses, there were no blind spots in public areas
She felt confident they wouldn’t be able to escape the truth.
The pair froze. Their complexion was going pale as the realization sank in.
“Seraphina …”
But it was too late.
Seraphina turned on her heel and walked away.
