Chapter 77

Una was so grateful to Seraphina for fighting for her in front of the company’s top brass, she insisted on treating Seraphina to afternoon tea. As it happened, Seraphina was free and agreed on a whim

Once they sat down, aside from thanking Seraphina profusely. Una also apologized for her previous loose lips.

“Sorry about that, Seraphina, I had no idea you were Mr. Reynolds’s fiancée I was talking nonsense right in front of you. You’re not mad at me, are you?”

“Why would I be?” Seraphina laughed and sipped her tea, “You didn’t mean any harm when you said those things, did you?”

Hearing this. Una couldn’t help but laugh excitedly, “Exactly! Mr. Reynolds didn’t flinch even in front of Georgina and Fidelia, because he’s so faithful to you! It’s rare to find such a devoted man these days, especially one with his status. You’re so lucky, Seraphina. I’m so jealous!”

Seraphina heard her praising Leandro and raised an eyebrow. She neither confirmed nor denied it.

In the middle of their conversation, Una’s phone wouldn’t stop ringing. She silenced it, but the screen kept flashing.

Seraphina glanced at her phone screen, “Nothing urgent, I hope?”

“No way!” Una said, “It’s just those people from the company. They saw us being so friendly and keep pestering me for info about you… Oh, by the way. Seraphina, can I ask you why you came to our company today? Are you planning to invest in us, or is there some other collaboration?”

“Do I look like I have the capital to invest in a company?!” Seraphina laughed, then slowly said, “No, it was your top executive, Robinson, who said he wanted to groom me for a career in the entertainment industry and offered me a contract.”

“Really?” Una’s eyes widened in surprise, “Did you accept it?”

Seraphina tilted her head and smiled, “I’m considering it.”

Hearing this, Una nodded, her eyes gleaming with excitement.

Seraphina knew from Una’s reaction that the news would soon be common knowledge within the company

After tea with Una, Seraphina was off to dinner.
