Chapter 404 Ride to the Hotel

As they settled into their seats, Orion's leg casually brushed against Seraphina's beneath the table. She wore a short skirt that ended just above her knees, and instinctively, she shifted slightly to the side. Noticing her reaction, Orion deliberately nudged her leg again. In that moment, it felt like a jolt of electricity surged through him, striking straight at his heart.

He stole a glance at her and found he couldn't look away.

Her slender, smooth calf was astonishingly beautiful, captivating enough to make his heart race with desire.

But after a few seconds, he quickly diverted his gaze; he couldn't afford to look any longer, or things would get complicated.

Seraphina shot him a cold glance but didn't attempt to evade his touch. Instead, she kicked him hard.

For an instant, pain flashed across his face, leaving him pale.

F*ck, she's ruthless!

The commotion was minimal, and Wilson remained oblivious to the under-the-table happenings.

Orion maintained a casual smile, as if nothing had happened. He said, "Dining with Mr. Rockwell is actually quite enjoyable. If you all plan to meet again, make sure to invite me."

He glanced at Seraphina. She rolled her eyes at him before addressing Wilson. "Mr. Rockwell, I think we've had enough. I'll head home now. Goodbye."

Wilson hesitated for a moment before speaking up, "Ms. Cross, there's something I'd like to ask of you."

Seraphina looked at him curiously.

"I'll be going abroad for a few days to handle some matters. I'm not comfortable leaving little Dani alone here. Could you keep an eye on him for a few days? His maid and bodyguard will still be here, but I'm worried that boy would cause trouble." Seraphina immediately understood the situation.

From the side, a sarcastic voice chimed in, "If you're so worried, why not just take him with you? Why keep bothering others?"

Dani was, after all, a little rascal who often caused him trouble.

"Sure, I'll send someone to pick him up. He can stay at my home for now," Seraphina replied.
