Inherit Billions (Seraphina and Orion)

Chapter 55 The Tiger

The next morning. Seraphina headed directly to Giant Group with her team. Eden was already prepared and took her to four the research lab

The lab shows ased the latest breakthroughs, offering a genuine glimpse into their experimental progress.

As they approached the entrance, Seraphina was chatting with Eden when a small creature suddenly darted out, charging straight at them. Someone behind them shouted, "Watch out!"

Upon closer inspection, it was a small, plump tiger with pointed ears and whiskers twitching with excitement. However, it was too small to be intimidating, looking more like a fluffy, ankle-high ball of cuteness.

Everyone stared in shock at the little creature. Seraphina was startled. She felt her heart had stopped beating and took a step back.

The tiger approached her, bumped into her shoe, and rolled to the ground with an 'ouch'

sound. It then clumsily climbed up, rubbed its head against Seraphina's shoe, and looked up at her with a curious tilt.

The way it moved and reacted made it clear it was a young tiger cub, spoiled and naive. The cub found everything new and fascinating. It was the kind of creature that made you want to secretly take it home.

The tiger blinked, whiskers twitching. It reached out a chubby paw and touched Seraphina's shoe, as if trying to clean off a nonexistent smudge.

Seraphina clutched her chest, taking deep breaths, and rubbed her eyes as if she couldn't believe her own

eyes.

"What a stunning beauty!" the tiger spoke in the voice of a three or four-year-old boy.

Her eyes widened in shock as she asked, "This tiger can talk?"

Wait, why was there a tiger here?

How could a nationally protected animal show up in the lab?

Eden couldn't help but chuckle softly and say, "Sorry, I didn't mean to scare you."

He looked down at the tiger, speaking gently, "You scared our guest. You need to apologise to her."

The tiger rubbed against Seraphina's shoe again and spoke in a pitiful voice, "Sorry, please forgive me. I might look fierce, but I'm really very gentle."
