Inherit Billions (Seraphina and Orion)

pter 266 Orion's Counterattack

Seraphina returned to the mansion, her face betraying a sour mood.

Sivir had come home early and was discussing some matters with Emeris in the study, while Justin lay sprawled on the couch, bored out of his mind.

Seeing Seraphina, Justin couldn't help but raise an eyebrow in surprise.

"Back so early?"

Sivir and Emeris heard the commotion and came downstairs. Sivir wore his usual mild smile, and his. expression was as gentle as ever.

"Did you have fun?" He asked tenderly,

Seraphina glanced at them. Her foul mood began to lift a little.

"Dad, Sivir, please prepare a large thank-you gift for the Droses. We can't just ignore the fact they saved me. Otherwise, they'll think we're ungrateful. Her voice trailed off, her frustration evident.

Orion clearly used this as leverage to manipulate her, constantly reminding her of it!

It was driving her mad!

Sivir raised an eyebrow and smirked.

"Dad and I were just discussing this. When we contacted Orion last time, he brushed it off multiple times, hinting that money isn't what he's after

He paused at this point and gave Seraphina a knowing look.

Seraphina clenched her jaw slightly in the silence. Haha! Was Orion smart enough or lucky enough to find her without Sergio?

"What does he want, then?" Justin asked lazily from the side.

"Naturally, the best option would be marriage. That scumbag Orion isn't going to pass up such an opportunity. Compared to you, all other material things are insignificant. You're the most valuable person. in the entire family." Justin said, a hint of mockery in his tone. Seraphina's expression froze slightly. Naturally, she understood the deeper meaning behind Justin's words.

Was Orion's intent not obvious enough tonight?

He'd even hinted at reconciliation, expressing his regres and lingering feelings.

But to her, it was nothing but pathetic and heart-wrenching.

Whether he was sincere or not didn't matter.
