"Enough! Isn't this embarrassing enough already? Get out of here! Both of you!"

Alexander's voice was sharp, filled with the fury of a storm as it cut through the air mercilessly.

Emeris stood nearby. His expression was cold and sinister, and he did not utter a single word in their defense. He had no interest in meddling in his brother's family drama.

What truly angered him was the fact that they had ruined his daughter's birthday party. That was unforgivable.

No matter how harsh Seraphina's retaliation was, they deserved it.

Flora and Grace were feeling guilty. They realized that staying any longer would only worsen the situation for them. They left in disgrace.

Alexander, too, had no desire to stay any longer. After a brief exchange with Emeris, he walked out of the venue.

The small incident didn't cause much of a stir.

With tacit understanding, the guests quickly changed the subject. The guests resumed their dancing, while those indulging in small talk carried on. Nobody dares to gossip about the situation behind the Crosses' backs.

Seraphina took a cold sip of her wine. The red liquid glistened against her red lips. Her expression was cool, aloof, and even more strikingly beautiful. She turned her head to see Emeris, his face still grim.

She walked over to him, gently shaking his arm and speaking softly to coax him. Seraphina even let out a playful smile to coax him.

"Don't be mad, Dad. You didn't lose anything. Why bother getting annoyed at people like that? It's not worth it!"

Seraphina's quick change in expression surprised everyone. People found it more amusing and helpless than shocking.
