Inherit Billions (Seraphina and Orion)

Chapter 278 He's Looking for You

Lucius called Seraphina from his car.

Seraphina answered with a distinct hint of irritation, sounding as though she had just woken up.

"Who is it?"

Lucius pressed his lips together and asked, "It's me, Lucius. Hmm, Orion's drunk. He's right outside your house. Can you come out? I'll leave right after."

The line was silent for a few seconds. Seraphina seemed to have woken up completely.

Her voice was cold and controlled when she finally spoke. "Take him and get lost!"

Lucius struggled with words.

"Look, he's already here. If you don't come out, I'll just leave him at the door. If he freezes out here, that's on you!"

Without waiting for a response, he hung up the phone and patted his chest in relief.

These days, he needed courage to talk to her.

Lucius dragged Orion out of the car and set him down right in front of her door, making sure he was in an obvious spot.

"Orion, I'm doing this for your own good," he mumbled nervously. "Don't come after me for this later!"

After all, Orion had been the one who insisted on coming here.

With a shrug, Lucius got back in his car and drove off.
