Inherit Billions (Seraphina and Orion)

Chapter 252 It's Long Over Between Us

Seraphina's face lost all color in an instant, turning even paler than before.

Her eyes widened with disbelief. Had she heard him wrong?

The silence in the air was suffocating.

Orion's gaze never left her face. He observed every flicker of emotion, every-small detail, as though trying to capture it all.

Shock, confusion, detachment, resistance...

Luckily, there was one emotion missing-disgust.

Orion stepped closer, his hand barely reaching for her hair. He wanted to convey his feelings and showed her his sincerity. He truly meant it.

But before he could touch her, Seraphina recoiled. She stepped back so quickly, it was as if his touch would burn her.

Her retreat pierced through him, causing a deep ache that he couldn't show.
