Chapter 158 A Toast to Your International Friendship
Seraphina glanced sideways at the stiff Natalia and spoke with casual indifference.
"If Ms. Ivanova is so worried about Ms. Wheeler, perhaps instead of throwing dirt around, you should take the blame for her. I'm sure Ms. Wheeler would be most grateful. I genuinely want to toast to your international friendship!" Natalia's heart sank. Her face betrayed the panic she couldn't hide.
Sarah and Seraphina's words left her feeling uneasy, as I something was terribly wrong.
Could the truth be different from what Jane had told me?
Her lips turned pale, and she was trembling slightly.
Before she could react, the Colombos's butler, David, heard the commotion and hurried over.
He looked at Seraphina with deep respect.
"Ms. Cross, you've arrived. Old Mr. Colombo was just mentioning that the gifts sent by your butler were 100 extravagant for Mr. Hansen. However, Old Mr. Colombo seems quite taken with them."
If Natalia had any doubts before, David's words crushed them completely.
As a result, the wealthy merchant she was mocking was nothing more than Seraphina's butler.
She had hoped to find Seraphina's weakness, but ended up backfiring.
"That was a gift from my father to Walter. Hansen is just an excuse."
Seraphina chuckled.
"Ms. Cross, please come inside."
David bowed and extended his arm to guide the way.
Seraphina was about to walk in, but then paused.
She turned her head slightly to look at Natalia and asked a puzzled question.
"How could Ms. Ivanova come here?"
In terms of status and position, the newly arrived Natalia wasn't even close to being part of this circle.
Natalia's face turned pallid. Before she could respond, David recognized her immediately and spoke up.
"Oh, she's here to perform. A talent agency recommended her, stating that people might find her intriguing because she's a foreigner. If you don't like her. I'll replace her right away."
The agency granted Natalie the special privilege of performing at the party.
After all, everyone who entered this place was either wealthy or powerful.

Chapter 158 A Toast to Your International Friendship
If she attracted the attention of someone significant, she would secure her future.
Surprisingly, she'd end up provoking Seraphina.

"Never mind. Since she's here to perform, she should be rehearsing in the waiting area. If she's caught taking photos to blackmail the guests, who would attend your parties in the future?" The people nearby froze. Oh my!
Seraphina wasn't the only one who's in danger! Anyone could be a target.
The Colombos hosted this party. The family would bear responsibility if anything went wrong
Davis's expression froze slightly at the remark. He gestured to the bodyguards positioned behind him and issued a stern command.
"Take her away. The performers shouldn't be wandering around."
Seraphina and Sarah exchanged a glance and followed the butler inside.
They first went to greet Hansen's grandfather, Walter Colombo, then they headed off to find Hansen.
People surrounded Hansen, trying to toast him. When he saw Seraphina, it was as if he'd spotted a savior.
"My date has arrived! You guys who don't have a female companion don't deserve to drink with me!" His shout only made everyone angrier!
However, their anger turned to forced smiles when they saw Seraphina. Everyone joined in the banter.
Wearing a dark green strapless gown, her entire demeanor was striking, vibrant, and stunning. Her slightly curled hair lazily draped over her shoulders, making her the center of attention wherever she stood. Seraphina glared at them before turning to leave. Hansen was quick to follow her.
"Oh my, have you received a divine blessing?" he questioned. He teased.
Sarah, hearing fus, turned away in disgust.
Seraphina couldn't suppress a cold laugh. She raised an eyebrow at him.
"If you want me to give you a good thrasing, keep it up!
Hansen grinned and moved closer. He claimed, "I always tell the truth?
He tugged lightly at her dress, causing Seraphina to click her tongue in annoyance as she stepped back.
Their playful exchange looked like flirtatious banter to outsiders.
Orion's deep eyes stared intently at the figure in the dark green dress in a distant corner.
An icy, oppressive aura surrounded him, chilling anyone who dared come near.
Lucius stood by his side, silent as ever.
