SWNOVELS Chapter Inhert 283
Chapter 283 The Mysterious Wilson
Kavel's studio had received a staggering 100 million investment from Seraphina, which boosted their confidence. They planned a new show, which turned out to be a success.
The celebratory party was in full swing. Seraphina was caught up in the excitement, and she ended up drinking quite a bit.
When she woke up the next morning, it was almost noon. She decided to grab some food near the office and check in with Thomas about the Wilson investigation. Halfway there, she received a call from her assistant, where he informed her that Wilson had unexpectedly shown up at Eldoria Institute of Technology.
Without a second thought, she turned around and headed to the university.
A figure of his stature wouldn't go unnoticed. Sure enough, she quickly heard word that he was there to give a lecture.
Seraphina hurriedly went to the large lecture hall. As soon as she walked in, she was dumbfounded by the sight.
The place was packed. There wasn't a single seat left, and some people were even standing in the back.
Clearly, there was enough mystery surrounding this Wraith Street mogul to pique everyone's curiosity.
Seraphina stood there, unsure whether to stay or leave. She was about to make up her mind when. someone beckoned to her with a low, magnetic voice.
"Seraphina, over here!"
She glanced toward the front row, where Orion sat in a luxurious custorn suit with a watch worth as much as a sports car adorning his wrist. His entire presence radiated an air of wealth and elegance, as though he, didn't belong in such a crowded space. The seat beside him was empty, and no one dared to sit next to him.
It was as if even being close to him was sacrilegious.
Seraphina was momentarily surprised but only hesitated for two seconds before walking over. After all, she could not afford to let her dislike for Orion get in the way of her making money.
After all, who would turn down the chance to make money?
"Why are you here?"
Seraphina couldn't help but ask. Her tone is far from gentle.
Orion smiled slightly before answering in his calm, steady way. "For the same reason as you, of course."
There was no need for further explanation, Businesspeople like them only shared one mutual understanding-profit. Their target was the same: Wilson
Seraphina sat down next to him. They were so close that she could smell the cool, minty scent that clung
to him.

Their striking appearance caught the attention of many. The two looked like a perfect match in the eyes of the onlookers.
"Mr. Dros, do you usually involve yourself in matters like this?"
"And doesn't Ms. Cross do the same?" He replied, his voice low but captivating.
Seraphina glanced sideways at him. He was as composed and detached as ever, but something about him. seemed different. Yesterday, his eyes had held a trace of sadness, but now he seemed like a different person.
Why is he not upset anymore?
As she pondered this, Orion suddenly turned his head, Jocking eyes with hep His gaze was warm, almost unnervingly so.
His eyes seemed to hold only her as he smiled. "Do you like what you see?"
Seraphina blinked, rolling her eyes in disbelief. This man is shameless!
Orion's smile deepened, a rare sight that seemed to astonish those around them.
Was that really a smile on his face?
"If you like looking at me, go ahead. I won't mind," he teased.
Could this man be serious?
Seraphina clenched her jaw and refused to look at him any longer.
"Orion Dros, have some decency!"
Orion's laughter came from deep within his chest, and he was not the least bit offended. On the contrary, he seemed pleased that she'd spoken more than a few words to him. Students nearby who overheard their conversation were utterly shocked.
The man was always as cold as ice. He warned anyone who tried to sit beside him off with a single icy glance.
His attitude was the total opposite now.
Was it just because those who wanted to sit beside him wasn't some stunning beauty?
One hurled insults, while the other accepted them with a willing smile.
No matter how you looked at it, their relationship seemed awfully ambiguous.
Seraphina felt increasingly uncomfortable as the minutes passed. She sat there, waiting, but eventually felt parched. After what felt like an eternity, a professor finally entered the room. "Everyone, I'm afraid Mr. Wilson had an unexpected matter come up. He's already left, so the lecture is canceled. You may all leave now."

"Oh no!"
A collective sigh of disappointment echoed through the room as everyone stood up and slowly filed out.
Seraphina was equally let down. She got up and was ready to leave. However, a student in a hurry bumped. her before she could reach the door, causing her to stumble forward. Instinctively, she tried to steady herself, but a hand quickly wrapped around her waist, holding her steady.
She didn't need to look down to know whose hand it was-the watch on her wrist gave it away instantly.
