Chapter 15 This Woman Is My Archenemy

Orion furrowed his brow slightly; Jessica’s behaviour was quite rude. He was just about to step in when he noticed Seraphina abruptly turning around, her expression turning cold.

Silence fell over the crowd. Everyone watched in shock as Seraphina seized Jessica by the arm and dragged her towards the pool.

Jessica was powerless to resist, much like a helpless chick.

With a firm grip on Jessica’s chin, Seraphina delivered a stinging slap.

Jessica let out a cry, then, with a forceful shove, she tumbled into the pool with a splash.

Jessica’s cries were suddenly silenced as she struggled in the water, clearly shaken and embarrassed.

Removing her hand, Seraphina’s eyes turned sharp and cold. Her tone, though casual, held a biting edge.

“If I’m being blamed for something I didn’t do, I might as well do it. Now I’ll admit that I did it.”

The sight of Jessica being pushed into the pool was completely different from her falling into the pool herself. This incident shifted the crowd’s suspicions.

Even Orion, for a moment, questioned the Seraphina he saw before him. She seemed like a different person.

Though the pool wasn’t deep, Jessica struggled to find her footing. Suddenly, she felt something cold over her head.

The rich aroma of a 1982 Lafite filled the air as Jessica looked up in terror.

Seraphina’s eyes were cold and mocking as she poured wine over Jessica’s head, her mood visibly lifted.

“Consider this a little extra gift, Ms. Yancy. Don’t rush to leave; I have more surprises in store..

Leaving the onlookers to cast disdainful glances at Jessica, Seraphina walked away.

An actual villain wouldn’t be so openly evil.

One figure remained composed, while the other seemed flustered.

It was evident Jessica was the one causing the trouble.

Jessica’s voice trembled as she called out while eyeing Orion timidly, “Orion…”

She resented Seraphina for stealing Orion’s attention and the spotlight since she got here.

If it weren’t for her, Jessica wouldn’t be so dishevelled and treated like a laughingstock right now.

Admitting her fear, Jessica wanted to leave quickly, fearing Seraphina had more tricks up her sleeve.

Orion averted his gaze while a waiter came to Jessica’s aid. She was shaking from falling into the water twice.

Jessica looked panicked. “No, I didn’t. Why would I frame Seraphina? You saw how she acted. She’s and she wants to seek revenge on us… Orion, even if you don’t trust me, don’t you trust Charles?”

Orion scrutinised her with his intense gaze, his expression intimidating.

Tll take you home.”

Jessica relaxed slightly, about to agree, when someone shouted, “Look upstairs!”

All eyes turned to the second floor. Seraphina stood casually, a large crocodile-skin bag beside her crazy.

She leaned against the railing while smoking a cigarette, captivating everyone’s attention with the curling smoke.

Jessica felt a surge of fear as Seraphina casually took out a stack of bills from the bag and tossed it into the air, letting them fall into the pool and on the ground.

She did it repeatedly. Servers and guests eagerly rushed to pick up the money, creating a shocking scene.Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.

Unsatisfied, Seraphina emptied the bag, showering five million in cash before Orion and Jessica and letting them fall to the ground.

“Orion, Jessica mentioned your sacrifices during our marriage. Consider this as compensation. Is it enough?

Seraphina’s voice was firm and cold.

Orion’s eyes revealed a mix of emotions.

The crowd grasped the situation. Jessica had called Seraphina a gold digger, but Seraphina debunked it, leaving her humiliated.

As Seraphina walked away under the shimmering lights, Jessica bit her lip, seething with anger.

This woman is my archenemy!
