Chapter 318 Napoleon Takes Advantage of You

"Fireworks? Isn't it a tradition that only occurs on Napoleon's anniversary?" Ken asked, his face twisting in surprise.

"What a coincidence? But no, Napoleon isn't the one getting the benefit here. These fireworks weren't for him. Mr. Dros specifically arranged them so that things wouldn't be too quiet while you were out enjoying yourself. He didn't want Ms. Cross and Mr. Cross to feel bored. He wanted both of you to have a wonderful time. Think about it, since when did Napoleon's birthday celebration have such a grand spectacle?"

Seraphina's expression shifted slightly. She suddenly realized that after spending a few years here, she was completely wrapped up in her own business. Seraphina hadn't paid much attention to Napoleon's birthday celebrations-let alone any fireworks.

She didn't care about those days in the past; some devotees remembered them, and she just observed the festivities out of curiosity.

Therefore, it appears that Orion was responsible for these fireworks.

"Thank you," Seraphina murmured, pressing her lips together.

Her heart felt heavy, like she owed Orion something.

Just then, the door across the hall opened.

Orion stood there, leaning slightly on a cane. He was tall and upright, with a few strands of hair falling messily across his forehead. Aside from a bit of pallor in his complexion, he didn't look much different from his usual self. His face carried a magnetic, brooding charm as his thin lips parted slightly.

"Why aren't you two resting?" he asked.

With a beaming smile, Ken exited Seraphina's room.

"Ms. Cross just found out about the fireworks you prepared for her. She was so moved and nearly broke down in tears. She said she's deeply touched that Mr. Dros could think of something like this, even in the midst of his busy schedule. She hopes you'll recover quickly so you can stand together, hand-in-hand, and watch the fireworks with her!"

Seraphina hadn't closed her door yet; she was speechless.

All she'd said was, "Thank you." How did Ken come up with the rest of that nonsense? Seraphina glanced at Ken, her gaze filled with disbelief at how easily he spun his flattery.
