Chapter 192 – A thank you gift for Voren

Seraphine thought through Zane’s words, especially the part about Daisy placed under pack arrest by Ravyn, and from everything she had learned so far, it was obvious Ravyn had finally started noticing the cracks in Daisy’s lies.

He was suspicious now, even if he had not uncovered the full truth yet, and that worked perfectly for Seraphine because she had no intention of letting him learn everything too soon.

Not when there was still so much left for him to lose.

She wanted him to spend more time with Bryan. She wanted him to keep loving him, keep caring for him, keep building that father-son bond until it became something rooted so deeply inside him that tearing it away would leave him completely shattered. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Only then would the truth hurt enough.

Only then would Ravyn understand what it felt like to lose something he thought belonged to him forever.

Only then would the news that Bryan not his son leave him destroyed beyond repair.

"Sure," Seraphine said calmly into the phone, her voice smooth and steady despite the storm brewing inside her. "Send everything to me, and for now, stay away from her."

With Ravyn already becoming suspicious, the last thing they needed was for Zane to keep circling around Daisy and make everything obvious.

Zane had never been the patient type, and his constant need to keep digging could end up exposing the truth much earlier than Seraphine wanted.

Ravyn had made his choice a long time ago, choosing the snake over everyone else.

Now he could spend the rest of his life suffering the consequences of that choice.

"Okay, boss," Zane said before ending the call.

Barely a few minutes passed before Seraphine’s phone started lighting up nonstop. Notifications kept pouring in one after another, each one containing another piece of Daisy’s hidden life, and by the time Seraphine finished reading through everything Zane had sent, even she had to sit back for a moment and let it all sink in.

It was so much worse than she expected.

Daisy had buried herself beneath layers and layers of lies so carefully that anyone looking at her from the outside would never imagine the kind of person she truly was.

There were suspicious bank transfers, hidden conversations, secret meetings, and enough dirt to ruin everything Daisy had spent years building.

For the next several days, Seraphine threw herself completely into work at the new office.

Corvine had gone far beyond anything she expected from him.

He had made sure every single device from her room was installed there so she could work comfortably from either place without missing anything, and the entire office had been arranged with so much thought and care that Seraphine found herself staring at it longer than she meant to.

Her workspace was separate from the resting area, giving her somewhere quiet to breathe whenever the pressure became too much.

Then there was the meeting section, elegant and polished, with enough space to host important guests, business partners, and serious discussions without anyone invading her privacy.

A soft warmth spread through Seraphine’s chest as she slowly looked around the office one more time.

By the time she finished, Zane looked both amazed and slightly overwhelmed.

"Are you planning on building a full team?" he asked. "We’re going to need enough backend support if multiple countries are getting access to this."

"I already started recruiting," Corvine said as he leaned back in his chair. "And if the people we have are not enough, you can hire more."

"And I should probably mention," Seraphine added with a small smile, "that Corvine is the CEO of MindNest, so technically, he is your boss."

Zane immediately straightened in his seat and gave Corvine a respectful nod. "Well noted."

"In that case," Corvine said as he stood up, "I’ll take you around and introduce you to the rest of the staff."

The rest of the day moved by faster than Seraphine expected.

By the time work was over, everyone looked exhausted but satisfied, and while Seraphine was gathering her things, something important suddenly came to mind.

"We should send Voren a thank-you gift tomorrow," she said, Corvine glanced at her for a brief moment before nodding.

"I already have something in mind," he said. "I’ll take care of it."

True to his word, the next morning, he arranged for the gift to be delivered to Voren on Seraphine’s behalf.

At first, everything seemed completely fine. Then the response arrived, and the moment they saw it, it felt like every bit of air had been ripped out of the room.
