Only He Can Do It

At the Dros estate ...

Ramona had locked Orion in his room for two days and nights.

He hadn't eaten a thing, but the room was littered with empty bottles of alcohol.Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

Slumped in a corner and clutching a wine bottle, Orion kept murmuring Seraphina's name over and over again.

Lucius and Aron had tried to persuade him multiple times, but nothing worked.

The Orion they saw before them was nothing like the confident, proud man they once knew. He was utterly captivated by Seraphina and bewitched by her spell. When Sivir arrived and saw the scene, he couldn't help but frown slightly.

"Mr. Dros, what if I told you there's a chance that Seraphina might still come back?"

If he remembered correctly, when Orion first took over the Dros Group, some of the company's founding members weren't happy. They worked together to set him up.

Those people orchestrated a pirate ambush on several oil tankers passing through the Etrium waters. The oil was stolen.

At that time, no official or military force intervened in such international disputes.

Most people in that situation would have simply accepted their loss.

Orion piloted a small speedboat and charged straight into the pirate fleet. When everyone thought he wouldn't make it back alive, he survived and brought back the stolen oil with him. The incident shocked people all over the world.

Orion was the first person ever to escape from pirates unscatched, leaving them empty-handed.

Therefore, Orion could be the only source of remaining hope for this rescue mission.

Regardless of whether Orion was drunk, Sivir laid out the situation clearly.

If the pirates were only after money, that would be simple to handle.

The real fear was that they might want something far worse-lives.

As soon as Sivir left, Orion sprang to his feet in a panic. He ordered Ken to arrange for a plane and decided to leave immediately.

He retrieved an old phone and a gun from the safe and headed out.

Ramona's men couldn't stop the frenzied Orion. All they could do was watch him leave, frustrated to the point of stamping their feet in anger. As long as there was even a sliver of hope for Seraphina, Orion was willing to risk his life.

Seraphina sat expressionless, chewing on a piece of fish. It had no seasoning, and she couldn't taste any of its natural flavor.

The fish had been washed ashore by the sea. Kaveh had picked it up and roasted it with some dry leaves.

Aside from the salty and slightly fishy taste, it was bland and tasteless.

"I'd kill for a meal at that old restaurant on Prisa's streets, with a glass of white wine. It'd be perfect," she murmured.

Kaveh had been eating enthusiastically. He looked at her and grinned.

"If you don't want it, I'll gladly take it off your hands."

As he reached for her piece of fish, Seraphina jerked away and glared at him protectively.

"Get lost! No one touches my food."

Kaveh suggested tentatively, "If you're bored, you could put on the tribal clothes, and I'll take you to see their village." Seraphina immediately shook her head, Was he suggesting that boredom should lead to suicide?

The mere thought of putting on those tribal clothes or even hearing the word 'tribesmen' made her shudder with fear. She would never do that.

The sky was a clear, brilliant blue, with not a cloud in sight. The sea breeze blew refreshingly across the shore.

Seraphina had no interest in the beauty around her. She just wondered when these days of anxiety and danger would finally come to an end.

Lost in her sadness, she suddenly heard the distant roar of an engine approaching from the sea.

Before Kaveh could react, Seraphina bolted out. She frantically waved her arms from a high point toward the small figure in the distance. ""Help! Over here!"

The speedboat came closer and closer, the sound growing louder.

When Seraphina began to feel a flicker of hope, Kaveh grabbed her and started running. His voice was both cold and urgent. "Run! It's the pirates!"
