Inherit Billions (Seraphina and Orion) novel Chapter 49

Chapter 49 Aftermath 

Finished 

Lucius was secretly alarmed when he observed Orion’s attitude. After he learned the truth, it was clear that Orion still cared for that woman. 

“Mr. Hyatt, I wanted to talk to you. Can we expand this three–way collaboration into a four–way collaboration?” he joked with Eden, trying to divert everyone’s attention. 

After all, Orion’s gossip wasn’t for everyone to witness. 

Everyone wisely continued mingling and drinking at the party. 

Eden wore a faint smile as he adjusted his gold–rimmed glasses and firmly rejected, “No.” 

Lucius asked, “Couldn’t you be a bit more diplomatic?” 

Eden hesitated and then repeated, “Sorry, no.” 

Lucius was speechless. Forget it; I’ll go search for Orion. 

When he turned around, he found his buddy, who was standing there, had suddenly vanished. 

“Where did he go?” Lucius muttered to himself. 

Eden’s gaze subtly shifted to a certain spot downstairs. Then, he smiled and walked away. 

Meanwhile, in a quiet corner downstairs… 

Hansen was circling around Seraphina, pressing her about what happened before his late arrival. 

“Did Orion bully you? Why did Hannah accuse you of seducing him?” 

Seraphina rolled her eyes at him and said, “No, it was just an accident.” 

It had to be an accident; otherwise, she couldn’t explain how it happened. No one would believe Orion did it on purpose. 

Hansen waved his fist and stated, “If he bullies you, I won’t let him get away with it.” 

Seraphina glanced around, not seeing Sivir. She asked, “Where’s my brother?” 

“He just went to the VIP lounge with Mr. Hyatt to discuss the business terms. Do you need to find him?” Hansen asked. 

Seraphina shook her head and said, “Nah, I don’t want to bother him.” 

As she looked over her shoulder, she saw Orion walking towards them. 

What a coincidence! This man haunted her for the whole evening. 

Raising an eyebrow, Seraphina grabbed Hansen’s arm and pretended not to see Orion. She intended to leave. 

“Seraphina, we need to talk.” Orion’s dark eyes were intense.

“There’s nothing to talk abonn Seraphina didn’t stop. Her departing figure decisive, nor wanting any more entanglement with this man. 

It would simply be an apology, but apologies are the cheapest form of guilt. 

She didn’t need it. 

Hansen glanced at Orion with a brazen smile spreading on his face as if mocking Orion’s current predicament. 

Look, even Orion has days like this! 

Lucius caught up with Orion. He followed Orion’s gaze towards Seraphina’s retreating figure. He clicked his tongue, advising, “Bro, you’ve divorced, so don’t regret it. It’s all part of that woman’s game.” 

Orion shot him a cold look and asked, “Do I need you to teach me how to handle things?”
