Inherit Billions

Despair

Seraphina didn't know when she had fallen asleep on the leaf bed, but she did.

Kaveh sat by the campfire. He was silently watching Seraphina's peaceful face as she slept.

For the first time in a long while, Seraphina had a restful sleep, not having to worry about being roasted by

savages.

The sound of the ocean crashing against the rocks and the howling wind grew louder. It finally woke her

1. up.

When she opened her eyes, she could not see Kaveh inside the cave. She had no idea where he had gone. Kaveh returned shortly, preparing to distill seawater into fresh water.

There was no other choice; he could handle most things himself, but Seraphina was delicate and couldn't.

Seraphina gave it some thought and realized she couldn't just sit idly by. Therefore, she began collecting reflective stones along the shore and arranged them on a massive rock to spell out 'SOS'. Maybe, just maybe, a plane would pass by and see it. "Mr. Dros."

"Just call me Kaveh."

Kaveh casually sipped from a cup of precious fresh water. He winked at her with a smile, his demeanor warm and friendly.

Seraphina felt at ease with his easygoing nature.

She was momentarily stunned, then nodded. If he didn't mind, neither did she.

"Kaveh, do you have any wishes? When we get out of here, I'll help you make them come true."

Kaveh paused, then looked at her with the utmost sincerity.

"ed money."

Seraphina had suspected as much. Why else would he take on such a dangerous job?

She patted his shoulder reassuringly.

"Don't worry, I have plenty of money. Once we're out of here, as long as I'm around, you'll never worry about money again."

Kaveh's eyes lit up with sudden excitement, almost as if tears of relief were welling up in them as he looked at her.

"I'm counting on you for the rest of my life."

"No problem."

Seraphina agreed without hesitation. With her wealth, wouldn't it be that hard to take care of him?

In New Town.

As soon as Sergio emerged from the lab, he heard about Seraphina's situation. Without a second thought, he boarded his private jet and headed for the ocean, where the search was ongoing. Justin hadn't returned yet, which meant everything was still unresolved.

The high-society elites, who usually had some connection to the Crosses, didn't dare bring up anything that would add to their grief.

Yet, there were always those who thought themselves clever and found their way to Seraphina's residence, sending flowers of condolence repeatedly.

Emeris's health had only just begun to improve, but she ended up back in the hospital from sheer frustration.

Sivir issued a direct order. Anyone who dared to send another bouquet would have the flowers sent straight back to their own house.

That finally quieted the busybodies.

Discussing Seraphina's supposed demise became taboo online.

The media platforms received strict orders not to allow any mention of the incident.

It was clear to everyone now-Crosses refused to accept that Seraphina was gone. They truly cherished their daughter.

Two thousand nautical miles away from the island.

After flying for over ten hours, Sergio's plane landed on the massive ship where Justin was stationed.

They had recovered a lot of the plane wreckage, which had been shattered into pieces. Yet, not a single person had been found.

It was likely they had all been lost to the sea.

The longer it took, the darker Justin's expression grew.

When Sergio arrived on the ship, he found Justin watching footage of divers exploring the sea. Justin's eyes were bloodshot. Clearly, he hadn't slept or groomed himself in days. Thomas didn't dare try to console him, but he was visibly relieved when he saw Sergio.

"Sergio."

Sergio gave a slight nod and immediately instructed the ship to set up his computer.

"Stop drinking. Dad is already considering donating all of the family assets away, including yours."

Justin shrugged. This didn't bother him, and he appeared completely defeated.

"Let him donate it."

Sergio glanced his wav

"Have you considered what would happen if Seraphina came back and found herself penniless? What then?"

Justin frowned and replied, "Then we can't donate. Wait, you think she could come back?"

Sergio's expression was solemn as he typed furiously on his computer. He nodded directly, his eyes fixed on the rapidly flashing code.
