Chapter 562 Your Boyfriend Won't Mind, Right?

Seraphina lifted her gaze. She wasn't angry.

How could she possibly be upset with Wilson for intentionally targeting Orion?

Logically speaking, she should be on Wilson's side.

They had more aligned interests.

But she had to admit-she felt uncomfortable.

With a faint smile, she said, "Why would I be angry?"

"Because I deliberately made Mr. Dros misunderstand our relationship."

Wilson's words were blunt and direct..

Did that mean Seraphina still had lingering feelings for Orion?

Was that why she would get upset when Wilson purposely led Orion to misunderstand?

After all, if she didn't care, why would it matter?

Seraphina smiled again, but this time, her expression was cold and distant.

"Mr. Rockwell, Orion and I are ancient history. There's no need for anyone to test the waters. "What bothers me is that you're using me to provoke him."

She wasn't stupid-she could see right through him.

If it were merely a matter of emotions, Wilson wouldn't disregard her feelings.

This was revenge.

It made sense. Even the most perfect people are still human, with flaws, grudges, and tempers.

Wilson was still harboring resentment towards Orion for manipulating public opinion against him. He'd just been waiting for the right moment to strike.

Yet no matter how he tried, it always came back to one conclusion: Orion's weak spot was Seraphina. Wilson thought she wouldn't notice.

He also assumed she would play along.

But she saw through it all, uncovering only selfishness in his heart.

Wilson's expression was one of conflict. For a moment, he was at a loss for what to do.

And then, Seraphina broke the tension with a sincere, easygoing smile.

Her reaction shattered the awkwardness.

"It's fine, really. We've known each other long enough-using each other is only fair. You've helped me out so much; how could I forget?"

Wilson suddenly snapped up. Seraphina's radiant smile was flawless, showing no trace of anger.

Her tone was calm, her gaze genuine.

"Don't overthink it. Orion isn't my limit. Goodbye, Mr. Rockwell."

Wilson visibly jolted in surprise, his dark eyes fixed on her retreating figure.

Orion wasn't her limit-that much was clear. He had been testing her boundaries.

She was way too clever.

Regret washed over Wilson in an instant.

It had taken so much to earn a fragment of her trust, and now, he had squandered it so easily?

He clenched his fists, turning the knuckles white, and his face darkening further.

In the car, Seraphina let out a small sigh.

The moment she got in, her phone rang. It was Thomas.

"Mr. Denter's back. He's invited you to dinner. Should I come up with an excuse to decline his invitation?" Seraphina shook her head right away.

"No. It's perfect timing-I have a few things to discuss with him."

By the time she reached the office building. Thomas was already waiting for her.

Seraphina instructed Thomas to call Aiden down while she stayed in the car. She'd drive herself, saving time.

Barely five minutes passed before Aiden came jogging out, looking somewhat worn out.

Seraphina frowned and asked, 'Aiden, you're this exhausted, and you're still up for dinner?"

Aiden mustered a smile, the light glinting off his refined glasses, though his eyes betrayed his helplessness.

"Exhausted or not, I still need to eat."

Seraphina sighed silently and reached for the ignition. But before she could start the car, the opened. passenger o

A chilling presence filled the space as someone sat down beside her. The temperature seemed to drop a few degrees.noveldrama

Seraphina flinched, startled. Orion had calmly taken the passenger seat, his face as stormy as ever. Hadn't he left already!

She'd assumed he'd stormed back to his office in a fit of rage, probably smashing something along the way.

Her surprise was evident, and Aiden cleared his throat awkwardly.

"Uh, I ran into him at the office entrance. Hope you don't mind him tagging along.

So Aiden had known all along.

Aiden chuckled lightly. He'd just returned from an all-day business trip with no rest, only to be dragged into Orion's scheming.

It felt like he was putting his life on the line.

Orion's sharp, brooding gaze lingered on Seraphina, his deep voice cutting through the air.

"You don't mind, do you? It's just business. I'm sure your boyfriend won't have a problem with it."

Ah, so Wilson had succeeded.

Orion believed him..

Seraphina looked away without a word, starting the car. She didn't bother to explain.

Her silence made Orion's dark eyes cloud even further, his expression growing colder by the second. 1.7K
