Chapter 284 First Lady of the Dros Group
As soon as Seraphina looked up, she saw that Orion had already grabbed her hand and led her to the doorway. His tall, lean figure completely blocked the exil His eyes were sharp and predatory, locking on to a nearby young man with an intense, dangerous star
His mere presence exuded authority, making everyone freeze in place. That young man was visibly trembling. He stood there, terrified of Orion's gaze.
One second... two seconds had passed. That young man had finally realized what was happening and. turned his gaze towards Seraphina.
"I... I'm sorry," he stammered, his face flushing a deep red. "I didn't mean to bump into you. It was an accident. I'm so sorry."
Seraphina smiled and said, "It's fine. You can go."
She cast a glance at Orion. His gaze, previously filled with cold indifference, now softened. He stepped aside and cleared the path, though no one dared to move just yet. Seraphina pressed her lips together. She smiled and walked out, under the watchful eyes of around her.
Orion trailed.
He kept the pace with her, neither too quick nor too slow.

They walked through the school grounds. Seraphina found herself picking up her pace without even realizing it. "Let's grab something to eat together," Orion called after her.
"I don't have the appetite to cat with you," Seraphina responded flatly.
Orion paused, his voice dropping, and let out a teasing smile. He spoke casually, but with a lighthearted. tone.
"Who do you have an appetite to eat with, then?"
Seraphina's eyes twitched as she thought of a way to get under his skin.
"With my boyfriends, of course!"
Maybe this will make him back off!
Orion's expression froze for a moment but vanished just as quickly.
His smile returned. He lifted his hand, as if intending to brush a stray lock of hair back from her face.
Seraphina quickly turned her head to avoid him. Orion withdrew his hand in response.
His raspy and low voice was still warm and tender as he said, "Is that so? Well, that doesn't mean I can't take you out for a meal. 08:56 Thu, Oct 31
Chapter 284 First Lady of the Dros Group
Seraphina took a deep breath. He was like a piece of gum, and she couldn't get rid of him.
"I don't want to eat with you, Mr. Dros. You should know better."
Orion's eyes narrowed slightly, but his smile grew wider His voice was smooth and confident.
"I don't know better."
Seraphina was so annoyed she could barely contain herself. She spun around and walked away, not wanting to waste any more words on him.
The darkness in Orion's eyes dissipated. He spoke again, this time with a note of helplessness.
"Come on, let's just grab a bite."
"Go away!" Seraphina snapped.
"I know about the relationship between Miguel and Wilson!" Orion called after her.
Seraphina froze in her tracks. Her expression was calm as she smoothly changed her answer.
Fine
Orion smiled slowly, finding this quick-witted Seraphina utterly adorable.

She thought it would just be a simple meal, but to her surprise, Orion took her across half the city to a famous private kitchen..
The restaurant only served fifteen guests a day and required reservations at least two weeks in advance, but the dining experience was unparalleled.
When she entered, Orion led her to the VIP section and pulled out a chair for her.
Seraphina sat down gracefully, Orion handed her the menu.
"What would you like?" he asked.
Without even glancing at it, Seraphina pushed the menu back. She said, "Order the most expensive dishes."
Unfazed, Orion nodded and ordered a few dishes from the waiter.
Seraphina gazed outside at the tranquil Traran garden scene, complete with decorative ponds and gentle streams. The lanterns hanging from the eaves swayed softly in the breeze, and a faint tinkling of windchimes filled the air. It was all so delicate and refined. "How did you know I was investigating the connection between Miguel and Wilson?" she asked.
Orion lifted his head and gracefully poured her a cup of coffee.
The rich aroma filled the air, enhancing the already perfect atmosphere.
"It's not exactly a secret. As soon as your meeting ended the gossip started. It barely took a few hours for it to reach my ears.

Orion raised an eyebrow. What else did she expect?

Seraphina's face darkened, and she shot him a glare. Is Orion really that confident?
