Chapter 16 Who Knew She Had Such Skills
“Orion, Seraphina must be mad at me again. Let’s just leave, Jessica said.
Orion saw an opportunity. “You wait by the door.” he told her, then walked straight in.
He found Seraphina sitting in a booth with the renowned Sivir beside her, gently massaging her ankle with. a gentle gaze. Orion’s anger flared.
They both looked up as he approached. Sivir smiled and calmly sat beside Seraphina, pulling her into his arms.
“Mr. Dros, shouldn’t you be comforting your lady instead of coming here to settle scores?” Sivir said.
Orion’s eyes darkened, his gaze fixed on the hand around Seraphina. His voice turned icy.
“Seraphina, if I did something to upset you, you can take it up with me. But you should apologise to Jessica.
Seraphina chuckled. “And if I don’t? Are you going to throw me in the water?”
Orion was annoyed by her casual attitude. Seeing her being close to another man so soon made him a liule angry.
“We were married once. I advise you to show some decency.”
“You don’t know me, Mr. Dros. I’ve always been vicious
Orion was taken aback. Her attitude where she couldn’t care less was infuriating, but he had no right to criticise her with their current relationship status.
“Suit yourself,” he said coldly and walked away.
He had forgotten his initial intention to explain his relationship with Jessica. But now, there was no need.
Seraphina’s smile slowly faded as Sivir patted her shoulder. “Do you still have feelings for him?”
“How could I?”
Seraphina scoffed. Once bitten, twice shy.
In Orion’s car, Jessica, wrapped in his jacket, was about to explain what happened tonight when the driver exclaimed, “Isn’t that Ms. Yancy?”
The driver slowed down, pointing at the giant electronic screen on the Hilton Hotel.
The ad space, costing the pool.
tens of millions for a minute, was playing a looped video of Jessica and Seraphina by
The footage was edited to obscure their faces, but everyone at the event would recognise them.
Orion’s eyes were glued to the screen. The video showed that Seraphina hadn’t touched Jessica. Jessica had
In an instance, the temperature dropped in the car.
Orion’s expression darkened. Minutes ago, he had demanded Seraphina to apologise.
This was her response.
Ilhat a joke!
Jessica turned pale as she was shrouded in fear.
She never imagined someone would broadcast the security footage for the entire city to see!
The car door was closed with a loud bang.
Orion stood outside, his voice harsh.
“Tomorrow morning, you’re going to Frencette.”
Jessica begged from inside the car, but Orion’s rage had no outlet.
If this was fake, then what was real in the past three years?
Walking in the cold wind, a flashy sports car pulled up beside him. The driver waved and said, “Hey, get in.”
Lucius and Orion were close friends; he had also been at the party to socialise and was entertained by the fiasco earlier. However, he found that it was pointless to stay after Orion left, so he left as well, not expecting to run into him here.
Orion lit a cigarette. The smoke reminded him of Seraphina, and he froze a little.
“Did you see Seraphina? What’s her deal with Sivir?” Lucius asked.
Orion’s mood soured further upon hearing the question. He didn’t want to answer because he didn’t know either!
Luckily, there were no reporters today, or it would’ve been explosive news in the circle. But nobody would dare to spread gossip due to the Dros family’s status anyway
“To be honest, we felt sorry that someone of her background managed to marry you. Today, she even targeted Jessica. Heh. I’m glad you’re divorced. Otherwise, she might have dragged the whole Dros family down. I can’t believe she’s hooked up with Sivir now–they look pretty close. Who knew she had such
