Inherit Billions (Seraphina and Orion) novel Chapter 48

hapter 48 Declaration 

A dazzling smile, both charming and dangerous, lit Seraphina’s face under the soft and bright lights. Her beautiful eyes were ice–cold and indifferent. 

She stood firm on the ground. 

“Mr. Dros, what if it’s true? Do you want your sister and mother to bow and apologise to me? Have they done my laundry and cooked for me like servants? 

“Or are you planning to get rid of your penniless ex–wife, who didn’t even have a dowry with some money?” 

Everyone was stunned. They had thought that by this point there would be mutual apologies and a way to smooth things over, but Seraphina dared to speak her mind so boldly, 

With the Dros family’s wealth, Orion’s wife’s dowry shouldn’t matter. But in high society, comparisons of status are omnipresent, even if they are rarely discussed openly. 

This situation had become an unresolvable drama. 

“Apologise? In your dreams!” 

Hannah snarled and refused to back down. In front of so many people, she would never apologise to Seraphina. 

That was wishful thinking! 

Hannah defiantly glared at Seraphina. She declared, “I’ll never apologise, let alone bow to you! Serve you like a servant? Keep dreaming!” 

“Enough!” 

Orion yanked Hannah back. His force caused her to hit the railing, and it was unclear whether he did that intentionally. Tears welled up in Hannah’s eyes from the pain. 

Unfazed, Orion turned his head away and looked at Seraphina with complex emotions in his dark eyes. He couldn’t meet any of her conditions. 

Except compensated her financially. 

But did Seraphina even care about that? 

For the first time, he felt a deep sense of helplessness. 

“Seraphina, I…” 

“Mr. Dros, if you can’t do anything, then stop pretending to be remorseful. Apologies are worthless. Do you need to play the victim? How lowly is that?” 

Seraphina’s cold laugh cut through the air. She glanced at Hannah, her gaze dark and sinister. Then she lowered her eyes. 

“Ms. Dros keeps bringing up this disgraceful incident. Is that an attempt to humiliate me?

Chapter 48 Declaration 

Finished 

“The disgrace isn’t mine; it’s your family’s fault for treating a daughter–in–law like a servant. Who would want to marry into your family! 

‘Well, it’s not going to be you! Seraphina, you were trying to seduce my brother just now, weren’t you? Admit it!” 

That kiss during the dance must have been Seraphina’s way of seducing Orion, yet she still had the nerve to demand an apology. 

Hannah was defiant. Why should Seraphina be so arrogant? 

Why didn’t even her brother side with her? 

“Ms. Dros, do you really think I was trying to seduce Me Dros?” 

Seraphina let out a soft laugh. She never wasted words, cutting straight to the point. 

Seduce?
