Watching Orion's despondent figure retreat into the distance, Justin furrowed his brow in confusion and asked, "What did he say?"
Seraphina pressed her lips together, her eyes trembling slightly before she lowered them. She said, "Nothing much, Justin. How much longer until we get home?"
"Two or three days, maybe.
Justin's frown deepened. It better be nothing-because if he harms her, he won't forgive Orion.
Seraphina was genuinely exhausted. Her wounds hadn't healed, and her body ached all over. It felt as though the strength she'd been holding onto for days had finally slipped away, and the pain she'd been suppressing returned in waves. Orion's words echoed in her mind like the whisper of a demon.
She tried desperately to shake them off and escape. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't forget.
In her dreams, the gunfire on the island and the street battles in Etopia overlapped, merging into a single chaotic nightmare, haunting her every night.
When she woke, her eyes would meet Justin's-he'd spent the whole night awake and watching over her. She lowered her gaze; her tone was firm but calm. "Justin, find me a psychologist."
The night sky was deep blue, and the stars and moon reflected on the sea's surface. The ripples, stirred by the cold wind, shimmered like layers of silver.
A man stood on the deck, his tall, lean silhouette stretched long by the moonlight.
He stood there silently, his cold and steely presence blending with the sea's chilling vastness.
Scott strolled over slowly, his voice tinged with amusement as he admired the spectacle that unfolded.
"Is our Mr. Dros recovering from a woman's rejection?"
He had never seen Orion, who usually cared so little for anything, so distracted by a few words from Seraphina.
Orion's jawline was sharp and smooth. At a glance, his eyes seemed devoid of any emotion.
When he looked closely, he saw everything in his eyes-Orion's eyes held the weight of the world.
Orion quickly reined in his emotions. He cast a glance at Scott. His low and rough voice betrayed his inner turmoil.
"I feel like she won't take me back
Scott raised an eyebrow and said, "You saved her. How could she still blame you?"
Orion let out a self-mocking smile.

"She doesn't hate me anymore. Of course, she won't blame me."
Not blaming him didn't mean she still liked him.

She would never involve herself with him again, even if his family became entangled in endless business dealings with the Cross family.
Scott sighed and patted him on the shoulder.
"Then there's hope. You made some stupid mistakes, but you have to pay for them. If you've chosen her, you have to go all out to win her back, no matter what it costs. How else can you answer to our buddies. who risked their lives to help you?" Orion smiled. His knitted brows eased slightly.
"Have the guys gone back?"
"Yeah, a few military helicopters entering the country would've caused too much red tape, If it weren't for the patient, I too would have left. Oh, by the way, that celebrity asked me if I do psychological treatment. Is Ms. Cross-2
Scon trailed off, frowning slightly. Given all that had happened, an ordinary person would've cracked long
Jugo.
Seraphina's mental resilience was remarkable; she held up so well under the circumstances.
Orion's expression darkened instantly, worry and frustration written all over his features.
He didn't have time to wallow in his own feelings-he turned and left without another word. Scott, who'd been hoping for a good conversation.
He'd barely said a few words and was already abandoned.
As Orion rounded the corridor, he overheard Justin talking on the phone with Sivir.
"Yeah, she's having nightmares and running a low fever but her mind is still clear."
Orion thought about stopping, but Sergio had already spotted him, so he simply walked over without hesitation.
Justin was still on the phone. He rolled his eyes at Orion but continued updating Sivi
"Of course, I'm taking excellent care of Seraphina. When she's awake, everything seems fine. It was her idea to see a psychologist."
At those words, Orion's brow furrowed deeply.
