Seraphina glanced at her watch. Immediately, Thomas stepped forward and quietly reminded her, loud enough for everyone to hear, "Ms. Cross, you have a meeting with the director soon. It's about time." She wasn't here to visit the set after all. Everyone understood.
Seraphina nodded, not bothering to stay any longer, and she left immediately.
Her attitude was crystal clear.
She didn't care what the reporters would write; they wouldn't be able to post it online anyway.
Orion followed her out without saying a word.
Henry stepped aside, allowing them to pass.
He tilted his head slightly, showing a hint of respect.
The journalists present could clearly see the difference between the lead and the stand-in. It was a stark
contrast.
Orion suppressed the icy smile that was growing inside him. A stand-in like that? It would be a miracle if Seraphina ever fancied him.
He caught up with Seraphina in a few strides, raising an eyebrow.
"Finished your visit so quickly!
Seraphina replied, "Another time. You lot are just a bunch of third wheels getting in our way."
Orion narrowed his eyes, feeling a tightness in his chest and a sudden wave of suffocating frustration.
Seraphina returned home.
Emeris was relaxing in the living room, sipping tea and watching a movie. He asked, "I heard Orion came to see you at the company today."
The commotion was so huge that even Sivir had heard about it.
Seraphina grunted in response; there was no point in hiding it.
Emeris pressed his lips together and said, "Lately, there's been talk about his family arranging an engagement with the Corcker Group's daughter. Did you know?" Seraphina didn't, but she wasn't interested either.
However, when Emeris said this, it was to remind her that the movements of the Droses signaled shifts in the business world's interests.
It was both a reminder and a warning.This is from NôvelDrama.Org.
"It's none of my business," she replied firmly.

Emeris nodded and said, "Orion may be great, but his family is too focused on immediate gains. It's not a good thing."
Except for Orion, the entire Drose family had a very narrow vision. It was disappointing that Ramona was solely focused on immediate profits. Seraphina knew the Droses wouldn't wait for her forever.
She didn't want any further involvement with them.
"I understand. I'll keep my distance."
That was exactly what Emeris wanted to hear. He worried she might waver or feel hurt.
After all, a father always cares deeply for his daughter.
Morning.
The weather had turned chilly.
Outside, light rain pattered down; the sound of raindrops falling from the eaves was soothing, almost hypnotic.
Seraphina tossed and turned all night and didn't sleep well, feeling an inexplicable sense of restlessness.
She took her time getting ready and went downstairs. Not in the mood to drive. Just then, she caught a glimpse of Justin sipping milk and reading entertainment news. She tossed the car keys at him and muttered, "Take me to the office."
Justin coughed, giving her a reluctant look. "Can't you just get up early and leave with Sivir? You're both CEOs, so why is Sivir so much more disciplined?
Seraphina raised an eyebrow, just as she noticed Emeris returning with his fishing gear.
"Dad, Justin's complaining about me waking up late and refusing to drive me to work!"
Emeris frowned and glared at Justin, warning him.
"You want me to teach you a lesson, aren't you?"
Justin stomped his foot in frustration. It's so unfair, way too biased!
Was he not worthy of his fatherly love?
Seraphina lifted her chin triumphantly. After all these years, Justin still didn't understand his place in the family
Downstairs at Cross Group
Just as Seraphina stepped out of the car, Justin sped off the tires squealing as he drove away, as if he were having a tantrum.. Haha! Hilarious.

""Ms. Cross."

A familiar voice called out. Seraphina turned around to see Ken running towards her, panting. He was holding a long, blue, rectangular box.
Seraphina's eyes darkened slightly, feeling speechless.
Stubborn and relentless, Orion's style was growing increasingly shameless.
Ken handed her the blue box and greeted her, "Good morning. Ms. Cross. This is a gift Mr. Dros personally selected for you, just flown in from Nascen. He hopes you'll like it." Before Seraphina could respond, he opened the box.
Inside was a bouquet of vibrant red roses, fresh and dewy, the petals lush and luxurious, even more vibrant than regular red roses.
The entrance of Cross Group was still crowded with people.
It was in the office last time, but now at the entrance.
Clearly, Orion wanted attention. He wanted to make a public statement and assert his claim.
As if Seraphina couldn't see through his petty intentions?
She didn't accept it. Her eyes remained indifferent as she look
