Chapter 435 Orion Got a Reality Check
The video showed just a few seconds of them playing the piano together.
"She can't be ... She can't be the same Seraphina that boss can't have, right? She just won a couple's prize worth five million with another man. My performance is going to tank." Ken felt his heart sink like a heavy stone dropped from a great height. The man beside Seraphina was
Wilson.
He glanced nervously at Orion, who stood there. Ken suddenly found himself overwhelmed by a whirlwind of panic.
This is it!
The table, which they had just replaced, would now require another change.
Ken hesitated, then spoke up. "Mr. Dros..."
Although he hated to dampen Orion's mood at such a crucial moment, he knew that if he didn't say something now, Orion would find out later-and he would be the first to go. Orion turned slightly, casting a sharp glance at Ken.
Without hesitation, Ken handed over his phone. The chat history on the screen told the whole story.
Orion took a full three minutes to read through it.
He took a sip of wine, his gaze dark and cold, and remained silent.
Ken was taken aback by Orion's calm reaction.
The more composed Orion appeared, the more anxious Ken became.
When he finally built up the courage to look up, he noticed the emotions swirling in Orion's eyes, barely contained; his brows knitted tightly in an expression that sent chills down Ken's spine. Orion was not upset about the money.
He was furious that Seraphina and Wilson had appeared together as a couple in public, playing music and accepting the couple's prize.
What made it even worse was that the award had come from him.
Darkness seemed to envelope Orion at that moment. His aura was cold and menacing, making the air around him feel icy and suffocating. "Bang!"
The sound echoed as Ken stumbled out of the office, shutting the door behind him with a sigh of relief.
He then contacted the logistics department to arrange for a new desk for the boss's office.

The moonlight was beautiful as Seraphina and Wilson strolled down the path back to the hotel.

Seraphina thought Wilson was being a gentleman by walking her back, but when she saw him stay at the hotel and pull a key card from his pocket, she was surprised. Oh, he lives in the room opposite of her.
Seraphina raised an eyebrow. It wasn't uncommon for guests to share the same hotel, so he must have just been dropping her off along the way.
Wilson smiled as she opened the door. "Good night."
Seraphina nodded. "Sweet dreams."
Once inside, she let out a sigh of relief. Seraphina quickly sent a text message to Thomas and started getting ready for bed.
Before sleeping, she turned off her phone.
No one could disturb her rest.
The moonlight was gentle, hazy, and peaceful.
Early the next morning, her alarm went off, rousing her from sleep.
After freshening up, she heard the doorbell ring.
It was Thomas
He handed her two bags he had prepared and said, "Ms. Cross, the car is waiting outside."
Seraphina nodded and took the bags, heading inside to change.
With a light makeup, she appeared cold, and her features were striking, especially in her outfit, which was elegant yet playful, effortlessly showcasing her status as a noble lady without trying too hard. Thomas couldn't help but be impressed at her look.
"Those ladies would be filled with envy every day if Ms. Cross were mingling in socialite circles instead of business circles!"
At his words, Seraphina raised an eyebrow, enjoying the compliment of his admiration and not hiding her pride in her words.
"I thought they were already living in jealousy," she replied with a hint of arrogance.
Thomas chuckled and quickly followed her out.
As she stepped outside, she glanced instinctively at the room across from hers.
For some reason, Wilson's name came to mind.
Thomas quickly spoke up, "When I came up, I saw Mr. Rockwell had already left. He seemed to have something urgent to attend to."

Seraphina replied, "I didn't ask."
Thomas paused for a moment. "Forget I said anything!
Haha!
Seraphina scoffed internally and settled back in her office chair, swinging it gently.
Finished
Thomas knocked and entered. "Ms. Zora's manager just reached out with a few business deals, all with Dros Group."
Seraphina nodded and asked, "What a coincidence. I wish her the best in her career. What about Henry? Will Dros Group silence him?"
Thomas wore a serious expression and nodded solemnly, "We've made it clear to Henry that Dros Group are his enemies, ensuring that we will not be dragged into this."
Seraphina exhaled with relief as she rested her legs on the table, her demeanor relaxed and slightly careless. She tapped her fingers on the desk and said, "As long as it doesn't affect us, that's all that matters."
