Inherit Billions (Seraphina and Orion)

Chapter 60 Their Plan Backfire

The staff politely placed the items in front of Seraphina. She lifted them up for a closer look and noticed a small red stain at the pipe's base. It was genuine.

"Thank you," Seraphina said to the staff member.

She completely ignored the two people standing beside her. Theresa couldn't hold back any longer and let out a cold snort. "Seraphina, do you have your eyes on the ground? Do you not know basic manners when you see an older person?"

How had they treated her before? They never thought she was a junior. Now they want to act like elders?

Seraphina's eyes flickered as she raised an eyebrow. "Oh, Mrs. Dros is here, too. What a coincidence."

Her words were enough to anger anyone.

Theresa's face turned pale with rage. She chided, "You have crossed the line. Did you really think you could disregard me now that you have support? Don't forget, I am your mother-in-law!"

When they hadn't divorced, Theresa never saw herself as Seraphina's mother-in-law. She always saw herself as the master, treating Seraphina like a servant.

Every time Seraphina returned to the estate, Theresa would openly and covertly ridicule her humble efforts to please, making her do chores and scolding her at every turn. She'd paraded numerous socialites in front of her, sharing Orion's contact details to make Seraphina back off. Seraphina had always been a thorn in Theresa's side.

Seraphina couldn't help but chuckle, asking, "Are you getting senile? I divorced your son long ago. Go ahead and be someone else's mother-in-law."

"Seraphina, you're truly disrespectful. How can you talk to an elder so disrespectfully?" Hannah couldn't help but interject. She had been deeply wounded by Seraphina's previous retort and now felt intimidated every time she saw her." With her mother here, she felt emboldened.

The atmosphere grew tense. Seraphina's smile faded. She glanced coolly at Hannah and asked, "Are you trying to lecture me?"

Hannah shrank back, falling silent, and looked at her mother.

These two had initially planned to give Seraphina a hard time, then coax her a bit and take the pipe away, but Seraphina wasn't playing by their rules.

Had there not been staff in the room, Theresa would have approached this more directly long ago. She had no patience for such entanglements.

truth couldn't be hidden. If Seraphina took the pipe, not only would Ramona be furious, but her husband wouldn't let her off
