Sivir acquiesced, parking the vehicle outside the Dros mansion and watched as the two ladies entered.

Upon entry. Seraphina and Olivia were greeted by the severe look on Theresa’s face.

“Seraphina! You shirked your responsibilities yesterday! No laundry, no dinner prepared! Thinking that marrying into the Dros family elevates you to the lady of the house? You show blatant disrespect to me. your mother-in-law?! Theresa berated her, leaving Olivia in shock.

Theresa then noticed Olivia, pointing at her while admonishing Seraphina, “You really should be taught lesson, bringing such dubious company. Do you even grasp the prestige of the Dros lineage? Associating with such individuals is unbecoming. Ask her to leave: I won’t have her tarnishing my floors!”

Infuriated by Theresa’s remarks, Olivia snapped back, “Dubious? Seraphina is your daughter-in-law, and I am her friend, Persist with these unwarranted slurs, and I will not remain silent!”

Taken aback by Olivia’s defiance yet still glaring defiantly, Theresa countered, “And who might you be? The audacity you have is causing a scene within the Dros residence! The security will be asked to remove you!”

“Do you presume to intimidate me?” Olivia was livid, finding Theresa’s attitude intolerable. She wondered how Seraphina had coped all this time.

Seraphina held Olivia’s hand, cautioning. “We shouldn’t react hastily. We are here for a specific purpose, not to cause a commotion.”

“They are my personal belongings,” Seraphina clarified. I’ve recently divorced Orion.”

I have no interest in claiming any wealth from your family. Money is of no consequence to me!”

“That’s right! The fortune of the Dros family means nothing to us, Seraphina!” Olivia chimed in, then assisted Seraphina upstairs to gather her possessions.

Theresa, mistaking their determination for stubbornness, watched them ascend without interference.

Orion grunted. “Hmm.”

“Wonderful! I’ve always maintained that she was only after our wealth, completely unsuitable for you. Now that you’ve seen reason, we must celebrate this evening!”

Hearing Theresa’s blatant satisfaction, Orion grew increasingly irritated. Unable to hold back, he inquired, “Is she still there?”

“Yes! She’s currently packing her belongings. But don’t you worry, I’ll ensure she doesn’t steal anything from the Dros residence.”

“I’ll be back soon!” Orion cut the call short, signalling his imminent return.
