The Real vs The Imposter
Seraphina stared at him, a mix of anger and speechlessness in her eyes.
Her entire presence exuded a calm and icy demeanor, carrying an innate elegance. His handsome features seemed to have been meticulously sculpted, yet there was a dark, chilling edge to his expression-a far cry from the person desperately trying to imitate him: Henry was just a poor imitation.
Oddly enough, she felt Henry was much better than him.
Orion watched her in silence, assuming that his logic had finally convinced her.
He exhaled with a sense of relief.
Initially, he had approached her with a 'nothing-to-lose attitude. Their relationship couldn't possibly get any worse, after all.
She didn't seem to care how humble or careful he had been before. Seraphina only moved further away. So, why not be straightforward?
He never imagined reasoning with her could feel so satisfying.
Orion let out a small, almost smug smile.
He looked rather pleased with himself.
Next, Seraphina couldn't help but laugh in exasperation.
She lifted her gaze and replied coldly, "It's brave to be bold, but it depends on who it's for. For you? No matter how hard I try, I just can't stick with it." Orion gritted his teeth, holding back his frustration.
He was furious-but he had to endure it.
Once again, he had lost this round.
Too frustrated to speak, Orion watched as Seraphina let out a scoff before turning and opening the door.
Outside, the staff had been eavesdropping on the argument. They quickly dispersed when the door swung
open.
Only Thomas remained, standing calmly at the entrance.
"Ms. Cross, the car is ready."
Seraphina glanced back at Orion and asked, "Mr. Dros, aren't you leaving? I have plans to visit Henry on set today."
Orion's jaw tightened, his eyes darkening. He couldn't stand that man-who looked like him but had an annoyingly sissy demeanor-from the beginning. 1/3

"Perfect timing. I'll go visit the set, too," Orion replied with a dark and solemn tone.
This is great. It was the perfect excuse to watch him make a fool of himself.

Seraphina shot him a glance. Unbothered, Orion casually added, "It's a movie, right? My company is considering investing in it."
On set, Henry was struggling.
It was his umpteenth retake.
Other actors had begun to criticize his lack of professionalism. He looked like an amateur, lacking any understanding of acting. His movements were more suited for a runway than the scene. Instead of playing the heroic CEO saving the female lead, he was striking poses and winking at the camera.
The director was fuming. He made Henry practice his positioning and camera angles repeatedly in front of everyone.
Henry was at his wit's end. He wanted to complain, but his manager had advised him to endure it.
If only Seraphina was around-she had promised to look out for him.
When he grabbed his phone, he realized with a start that he didn't even have her number. Damn, rookie mistake!
As Seraphina stepped out of the car, she immediately regretted coming.
The place was swarming with fans and paparazzi, all drawn to Henry's face.
To avoid being secretly photographed, she decided to make a public appearance. Seraphina stepped out confidently as the cameras clicked. The reporters rushed toward her.
With a professional smile, Seraphina waved warmly and whispered to Thomas. "Go fetch Henry."
After all, he was her cash cow.
No one noticed Thomas slipping away quietly.
"Ms. Cross, are you here to visit Henry on set?" one of the reporters asked.
Seraphina smiled but didn't respond.
The journalists knew she wasn't part of the entertainment industry, so they didn't dare pry too much or invade her privacy.
While curious, they were more fearful.
With the power of the Cross Group behind her, a simple flick of her finger could end their careers.
Any association with her was enough to skyrocket their profiles.
Orion's arrival only heightened the buzz. Unlike the aloof image people had seen in magazines, he appeared more relaxed his collar unbuttoned and suit jacket draned casually over his arm. He carried a 2/3

slightly mischievous, carefree vibe.
The moment he arrived, the reporters instinctively made way for him.

He stepped beside Seraphina, glancing at her warmly with a smile that felt as rare as ice melting under the
sun.
The cameras captured the moment.
"Mr. Dros, are you here to visit Henry as well?" one of the journalists asked.
Everyone knew how Henry got his fame.
To put it bluntly, wasn't he just Seraphina's stand-in for Orion?
When the real deal and the stand-side by side in the same photo were revealed, this was going to be headline news! "Indeed," Orion responded.
Did Orion actually personally visit Henry on the set?
And with Seraphina, no less?
