Inherit Billions (Seraphina and Orion)

Chapter 107 Keep Your Distance

Hannah and Theresa were momentarily stunned.

"You... What are you doing here?" Hannah asked, surprised.

Hadn't Seraphina been kicked out of Cross Group?

Theresa was shocked, but she quickly masked it with a composed smile.

"You're probably making a last-ditch effort. Seraphina, you better quit while you're ahead. Not every wealthy family can take in trash, let alone second-hand trash."

Hannah gained confidence too. She mocked, "Exactly. Are you here to cause trouble? It's a pity no one will help you now. The Crosses doesn't want you, and you've lost your support." Seraphina smiled and lowered her head. Her gaze lazily swept over them before she walked out without saying a word.

Hannah stood in the doorway, not intending to give way.

As Seraphina brushed past, she bumped into Hannah, who staggered and leaned against the wall. The cold, dark look in Seraphina's eyes silenced Hannah as she was about to curse.

It wasn't until Seraphina's figure faded into the distance that Hannah rubbed her sore shoulder, grimacing. Hannah complained, "She's already a loser; what's with the arrogance? She'll get what's coming to her!"

In the centre of the banquet hall, Emeris and Sivir stood composedly. The father and son were chatting with guests. As soon as the Romano and Orion entered, they sought out Emeris. "Mr. Cross..."

"Mr. Dros, the honour is mine." Emeris greeted him with a handshake, his voice cold and polite.

Orion bowed slightly and said, "Mr. Emeris."

Emeris laughed dismissively and said, "Please don't call me that. Mr. Cross will do."

Orion was momentarily baffled at the request, but he quickly recovered his composure. Despite their frequent business dealings, personal relationships were another matter. Emeris's sudden coldness made Orion suspicious. Romano didn't notice this and continued chatting with Emeris. Meanwhile, Sivir glanced at Jessica, who stood beside Orion, and raised his glass.

"No wonder you're relentless towards your ex-wife. It seems Mr. Dros has someone new. Which family does this young lady belong to? She must be someone special for Mr. Dros to be devoted to?"

Even Orion could sense the sarcasm in Sivir's words. His brows furrowed slightly, and his expression turned gloomy. He disliked others pryin

into his personal affairs, especially since rumours about Sivir and Seraphina had never ceased.

Is this man standing up for Seraphina?

Alexander Anderson, the chairman of Anderson Lab."

Sivir nodded politely and said, "I see."

Jessica's eyes lit up, and she asked, "Mr.

Cross, do you know my uncle?"

Sivir's smile was cold. He scrutinised Jessica, but his voice was smooth and courteous. "I've heard of him, but we haven't met. Our company doesn't deal in pharmaceuticals." Jessica beamed and offered, "That's okay. If Cross Group is interested in the medical industry, you could collaborate with my uncle. I can help you two make the connection." "No need for now," Sivir said lightly. "I can see Ms. Jessica is very career-oriented. Quite admirable."

This statement made Jessica extremely happy. Her active participation was all about proving to Orion and Romano that her value to their family business far surpassed Seraphina's. "You two make a lovely pair," Sivir added. Jessica blushed shyly, but Orion's face grew colder.

"Mr. Cross, you seem very interested in my personal life," he asked, his expression hardening.
