"Don't waste your efforts on the women from the Crosses. Since she's set on refusing to remarry, there's not point in pursuing her. Besides, we don't need her. Today, she's caught in rumors with a celebrity; tomorrow, she's getting cozy with a business partner. The men in her life are constantly changing, and no family would welcome a woman like her. Cutting ties with her is the best thing for us," Ramona said.

Orion's gaze swept over Lucinda, who stood obediently nearby. His gaze was sharp, like a knife.

Lucinda tensed. She was unsure of what she'd done wrong.

The young woman wanted to look into Orion's eyes, but he had already turned away.

Is he disappointed? Or relieved?

Orion's lips were pressed tightly together, his expression dark and cold.

"My choice is only Seraphina."

With that, he ended the call, the chill around him thick and oppressive.

People who had initially wanted to engage in small talk kept their distance, too intimidated to approach.

After he hung up, Lucinda hesitantly stepped closer, cautiously observing his reaction.

She asked in a low voice, "Mr. Dros, would you like something to drink?"

Orion glanced at her and spoke in an icy voice that could cut through the air.

"Tell your father to stop wasting his time on me."

Lucinda blinked, momentarily stunned. "I... I don't understand what you mean," she stammered.

Orion lifted his head, locking eyes with her. The coldness in his gaze was so frosty that it made Lucinda. shudder.

"You aren't worthy," he said.

Those words were meant for Lucinda.

He had seen right through Lucinda's small ambitions.

Lucinda felt like that remark was a slap across her face-burning and impossible to escape.

For Lucinda, Orion was nothing but an impossible dream.

Her ever

The people nearby watched the scene unfold with pity. Initially, they sympathized with Seraphina, but now their feelings shifted towards the innocent girl who had just endured humiliation. Seraphina didn't notice the commotion. After a few drinks, she felt a bit warm and decided to step out for

Wilson, ever the gentleman, nodded and guided her down the hall. He pointed to a door on the side. "It's just down there."

"Thank you."

Seraphina walked off, the sound of her high heels echoing against the stone walls of the corridor.

As she reached the corner, she overheard a woman crying inside.Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

"Why are you crying for? You couldn't even seduce a man. What good are you?"

A woman sneered with a hint of satisfaction, her voice sharp and mocking.

The speaker was Fiona Crocker, Lucinda's half-sister.

Would this illegitimate daughter even have a chance if she hadn't married herself?

Fiona continued to berate Lucinda for her failure, ridiculing her lack of worth, and secretly pleased that Orion hadn't taken an interest in her.

Seraphina hesitated, frowning. There was no way to escape them, but she didn't care. She wasn't someone who needed to hide. She walked directly to the other side of the corridor, where she could clearly see the two women who looked strikingly alike, standing there She expected them to notice her and leave, but they didn't.

Lucinda bit her lip, crying softly in humiliation.

Fiona, domineering and aggressive, stood with her arms crossed. She reached out and pinched Lucinda's

waist hard.

Lucinda didn't even dare to flinch. It was clear she had been used to this kind of bullying.

She had no intention of fighting back.

Seraphina watched from the side, but the sister didn't notice her.

She had no choice but to continue observing, amused by the scene in front of her.

It wasn't as though she was trying to eavesdrop.

"Fiona, I'll try harder, Lucinda whispered, her voice trembling with emotion.

Fiona sneered coldly and mocked, "Illegitimate children are just that-illegitimate. It's no wonder Orion doesn't want you. If it weren't for the blood running through your veins, you wouldn't even deserve to stand in the sun!" Lucinda lowered her head further. Her face flushed red with shame.

"But... Mr. Dros is in love with Ms. Cross. I can't do anything about that," she muttered.

How could che comnare to Seranhins?

"Nothing you can do? Wasn't your mother a mistress? Didn't she teach you a few tricks before she died? He doesn't like you? Why don't you crawl into his bed?"

Fiona shoved her hard. Lucinda nearly fell, slamming into the wall with a heavy thud.

Poor thing!

Seraphina stood there and felt a twinge of sympathy for Lucinda.

But that sympathy quickly faded when she realized that she and Orion were part of this conversation too.

Fiona's eyes grew cold. She grabbed a nearby bucket of tools and poured an entire bucket of water over Lucinda

Suddenly, she heard Lucinda scream from inside. "My clothes!"
