Inherit Billions (Seraphina and Orion)

Finished

Chapter 471 Admitting Defeat

Thomas had reserved a table at the upscale Frencette restaurant. As was their usual custom, he had booked the whole place for their private dining experience. Seraphina had no intention of letting anyone see her dining with Orion.

With a simple wave of her hand, she ordered her meal and handed the menu to Orion.

He barely glanced at it before saying. "Same."

Seraphina raised an eyebrow and shot him a look.

All she had ordered was a single fruit salad.

Orion settled into his chair, appearing relaxed and somewhat indifferent. "What's next? When are we heading back?"

Seraphina smiled wryly and said, "Soon. If all goes well, we should be back by tomorrow morning."

If everything went smoothly, once Seth and Blake were captured, she could return to the company and leave Joseph to discuss the acquisition.

Orion seemed pleased by her words. He assumed Seraphina had taken his advice.

His expression softened, and he said, "Don't worry; you've done well for your first time handling this."

Now, the real showdown was between him and Senator Long.

He had no intention of getting directly involved in negotiations with Blake.

To test Blake's limits, pressure was necessary, and that pressure would have to come from Senator Long.

The best way to deal with a rogue was to be even more rogue-like.

He wouldn't throw too much money at Blake; he aimed to cut the root of the problem instead, and everything was already arranged.

Lost in thought, his phone rang.

It was Senator Long.
