Chapter 69
Complain to Emeris
Seraphina knew the Dros Group was wealthy, but she was quite rich herself and didn't need this opportunity.
"Mr. Dros, when you asked me to get a divorce, didn't you give me a chance to name my price? I didn't take it then, and I'm not taking it now."
Everyone thought she married Orion for money, but during their marriage, Orion only occasionally transferred some money to her. His family never allowed her to touch a penny of their money, and they always took precautions against her when it came to financial matters. She was fully aware of it.
Ramona's expression darkened. His breathing grew heavy with anger.
Hannah confronted Seraphina, asking, "Do you just hate us? You just want to make our lives miserable, isn't it? Did you not return the pipe to Grandpa on purpose?"
Her voice trembled with anger as she pointed at Seraphina, desperate to expose her true nature.
Seraphina spread her hand and said, "Yeah."
She admitted it candidly. If it were anyone else, she would never hold onto someone else's cherished item without reason.
Seraphina hated the Dros. She didn't want them to have an easy life. She deliberately bought the smoking pipe to make them restless.
She admitted all of it without any pretence.
"Ms. Dros, I'm not a kind or weak person. On the contrary, I'm very vindictive. How did you treat me back then? I can't just pretend to forget it, can I?" Did she look like someone who would let things slide?
Hannah trembled with rage. Seraphina's blunt confession choked back her words. Her admission was more infuriating than a denial!
As Hannah prepared to lash out, Ramona shot her a stern look and silenced her. Hannah took a deep breath and softened her tone. Her eyes were filled with forced innocence.Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
"Seraphina, I was wrong before. I was young and ignorant. Please be the bigger person and forgive me. I sincerely apologize. If you forgive me, I'll do anything. Please give Grandpa his pipe back. It was my fault. Mom is under house arrest, and Grandpa punished me. If you're still upset, you can slap me."
She looked up at Seraphina, expecting her to be moved, but Seraphina just gave her a mocking look.
In an instant, Hannah felt she couldn't keep up the act. She simply stood there awkwardly.
Seraphina watched Hannah like she was enjoying a show. Hannah's acting was so awful that she wouldn't even qualify for an X-rated movie role.

Since Seraphina was unmoved, Ramona cleared his throat. He suppressed the gloom in his reluctantly spoke up. eyes and
"Seraphina, you have indeed suffered since then. Hannah genuinely wants to apologize. You can name any condition."

Apologise?
She didn't think this was an apology. It felt more like a shameless attempt at moral coercion. It was almost Haughable. Seraphina gave her a cold glance and said, "I don't accept your apology, and I won't give back the smoking pipe."
Even after all of that, she remained unyielding.
Ramona's expression shifted slightly. He couldn't suppress his anger any longer and asked, "What exactly do you want?"
Unable to hold back anymore?
"I don't want anything. If you have nothing else to say, I have things to do."
After all this, she was tired.
Ramona snorted, his eyes flashing with a sharp glint.

"If you won't take the opportunity, don't blame me for being unkind."
"Oh?" Seraphina raised an eyebrow and asked, "What do you plan to do?"
Ramona took out his phone and threatened, "Everything you have now is a gift from Sivir. Without his support, you're a coarse village woman! Unfortunately, no matter how much Sivir likes you, he isn't the true master of the crosses. If Emeris Cross, the real master, opposes his son being with you, what do you think will happen?"
