Inherit Billions: Chapter 403 Jealousy % +5 Pearls A chill crept up Seraphina's spine. Before she could react, a cold, firm arm suddenly draped over her shoulder. It tightened around her waist in a way that left no room for refusal, and then he sat down beside her.

Seraphina was briefly stunned. Orion smiled, but his dark eyes stared at her with an intensity that unnerved her. Gritting his teeth, he said, "What a coincidence, my dear?" The words-no, the way he addressed her-instantly cool the atmosphere to an icy silence.

"Let go," she shot back, her gaze icy.

"Seraphina!" He called her name, suppressing a tide of emotions swirling beneath the surface.

How could this woman be so heartless? He had humbly pursued her, persistently asking her out for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, but she had consistently refused.

And now, here she was, enjoying dinner with Wilson? So, she just didn't want to eat with him? It infuriated him.

He felt a burning need to retaliate against this indignation.

Across from them, Wilson's eyes dimmed momentarily, but he quickly broke the tension with a smile.

"Mr. Dros, everyone's watching. Shouldn't you give Ms. Cross a little respect?" Naturally, a small entourage accompanied Orion out for dinner.

It was merely a coincidence that he ran into these two.

His gaze turned colder, as if encased in ice. With clenched teeth, he slowly retracted his hand from her waist. Orion couldn't ignore Seraphina's dignity; otherwise, it would make Wilson look far more reasonable than he actually was.

"Mr. Rockwell certainly seems to have a lot of free time. While your own business flounders, you things that are none of your concern," he remarked pointedly.

focus on "Mr. Dros, you're a busy man. You shouldn't keep people waiting. We can't afford to keep them on edge; let's hurry along," Wilson replied, his smile warm but his eyes sharp with challenge. They were both vying for the sopportunity, and neither would back down easily.

The thought that Wilson had met Seraphina's family unsettled Orion, making his chest heave tically. How could he stand the idea of those two dining together, alone? 1/3 10:36 Sun, Nov 10 Chapter 403 Jealousy 1893% +5 Pearls Glancing toward the group he had brought along, Orion ordered, "Ken, take them inside. I'll join you shortly." "Yes, sir." Ken nodded and politely led the others to seats further away.

Orion's gaze settled on Seraphina's calm expression, her indifference only deepening his frown. His expression darkened.

Yet he dared not confront her directly. Instead, he turned his attention to Wilson.

Turning back to Seraphina, he forced a gentle tone, adopting a feigned intimacy as he reached out to tuck stray hair behind her ear.

"I'll be right back. You should eat something; don't let yourself go hungry," he said, projecting a façade of concern.

To Seraphina, he was just putting on a show again-playing the caring gentleman.

It was almost comical how much he had elevated his act.

Ignoring him, she took a bite of dessert, completely dismissing his presence.

Orion's face turned glum as he shot a warning glare at Wilson before rising to leave.

Wilson watched his retreating figure, a thoughtful look on his face.

"Mr. Dros seems to have changed quite a bit," he remarked.

Seraphina looked up at him, her expression thoughtful "Maybe he's just feeling the pressure." Wilson smiled but said nothing, sensing that something had transpired between them.

Orion entered the private room and toasted the group, then he stepped back out leaving the rest to Ken. His mind was elsewhere; he couldn't bear to be in that moment any longer.

Seeing Seraphina and Wilson sharing laughter made his heart heavy.

As he approached, he interrupted their conversation, his voice laced with jealousy.

"What are you two chatting about so happily?"

Wilson glanced at Seraphina, who was leisurely sipping her coffee her fingers looked like polished porcelain in the light-so beautiful, like a work of art.

For a brief moment, he was lost in thought before he spoke up. "Ms. Gross shared a joke. Would you like to hear it, Mr. Dros?" Seraphina looked at Wilson but didn't say anything further.

Orion's gaze darkened, His teeth were almost grinding together in frustration.

Haha she's telling inbes to Wilson? 2/3 10:36 Sun, Nov 10
