Chapter 482 I’m Here For You
In another car, the atmosphere had turned icy with silence.

It was impossible for the driver to say something. Sivir struggled to come up with a topic, and Wilson was equally clueless.
As they drove further, an idea suddenly struck Sivir. He turned to Wilson and asked, “Why did Mr. Rockwell suddenly decide to go to Eldoria Bay?”
Aside from the project that Seraphina was overseeing, he hadn’t heard of any other worthwhile investments in Eldoria Bay.
Why would Wilson, a well–known capitalist from Wraith Street and a blood sucker who wouldn’t rise early without a profit, suddenly venture there?
“To see Seraphina,” Wilson replied straightforwardly, a gentle smile gracing his lips, his voice smooth and elegant.
Sivir raised an eyebrow, hesitating for a few seconds before slowly asking, “I don’t understand. Did you have feelings for Seraphina?”
Afaint smile appeared on Wilson’s pale face.
dmitted, “Yes, I’ve been pursuing her.”
ced with Sivir, who could see right through a person and perhaps a future brother–in–law, Wilson felt it was best to leave no secrets unspoken.
Sivir smirked knowingly, as if he had expected this answer.
“Do you think I stand a chance, Mr. Cross?”
Unable to hold back, Wilson spoke up, feeling a swirl of uncertainty in his chest. He sought a bit of reassurance from Sivir. After all, he was Seraphina’s brother.
Sivir let out an enigmatic smile, his eyes lowering slightly as a hint of cruel sympathy tinged his voice.
“Mr. Rockwell, in our family, our opinions hold little weight. Seraphina always has the final say.”

No one could sway her thoughts. When Seraphina had stubbornly chosen to sever ties with the family to marry Orion, their words had fallen on deaf ears. If anything, it only sparked her rebellious spirit instead.
Now, they no longer dared to probe or influence her decisions..
“Well, as long as she’s happy, does it matter who she’s with?” he thought.
“With the Cross Group backing her, no one would dare to bully Seraphina?”
Wilson paused for a moment, sensing the touch of sorrow in Sivir’s tone. He nodded in silence, a gentle smile on his lips.
His upbringing taught him that it was best not to pry into secrets others were unwilling to share.

The car soon arrived at Lebury.

The Cross Group funded the private hospital, which treated exceptional patients with top–tier, albeit expensive, medical equipment.
Seraphina’s rare blood type wouldn’t receive priority at a regular hospital, but here it did.
Once they arrived, she underwent a thorough examination.
Her foot had suffered a severe fracture, rendering her unable to walk. A nurse with a pleasant demeanor came over to assist her with a wheelchair.
After a series of complicated tests, over an hour had passed.
When it concluded, the nurse kindly pushed her back to the assigned hospital room. At the door, she spotted Wilson sitting there, his hands loosely formed into fists resting against his forehead.
Seraphina paused briefly, signaling the nurse to leave. She then pressed the button on her wheelchair and slowly rolled over to him.
Her feelings toward Wilson were incredibly complex.
She felt sorry for him, just as she had for her own humble self three years ago.
Yet Seraphina did not want Wilson to become a second version of herself. That bittersweet sei unbearable; it could crush a person’s pride and reduce their confidence to nothing.
When Wilson looked up and saw her, his eyes still held a hint of crimson, yet they were warm as ever.
He smiled weakly, his complexion still pale, then his concerned gaze fell upon her legs.
