You''re Too Kind


    Though Seraphina was delighted to see a familiar face, she was too busy to joke around with Hansen.


    She hadn''t forgotten her purpose foring to this club.


    "Alright, Hansen, I need to excuse myself," she said.


    Seraphina stood up and continued her search for Julia,


    Hansen grabbed her wrist and asked, "Where are you going? Can''t you chat with me?"


    Seraphina sighed helplessly and said, "I can''t. I have things to do. I''ll leave soon."


    Hansen reluctantly let go of her wrist, not wanting to miss this chance to get close to her. He said, "I''ll wait for you and drive you hometer."


    "I drove here.


    Hansen insisted, "Then you can drive me home."


    Leaving the banquet hall, the corridor was quieter, though there were still people chatting. As she reached the corner, she heard someone mention her name.


    "Orion''s ex-wife? She''s not simple. I heard she cheated during the marriage. She portrayed herself as the victim online in an attempt to improve her reputation, but the Droses were unwilling to deal with her. Otherwise, how could she continue to exist?


    "Hannah Dros is a friend of mine. I''ve heard about it, too. Look at her; she''s worthless. She was a housewife for three years and became the VP of Cross Group right after the divorce. They say she even pushed Julia out..."


    "Poor Julia! After working hard to get here, a bitch took your spot. I heard Seraphina stole the project from Julia


    "Seraphina is so shameless. How could someone like her thrive? I heard she ''s clinging to Sivir. He gives her houses and cars. I wonder how he''ll react to her pictures with Justin; would Sivir lose his mind?"


    "Exactly. She should look in the mirror. Someone like her is only fit to be a hooker. No man with a decent background would marry a woman who can''t stay faithful even after a divorce."


    Seraphina paused and arched an eyebrow. It was ironic how she was always the centre of attention.


    Smirking, she was about to confront these women when a familiar, pitiful voice interrupted.


    "I can''t help it. I have no background and can''t please men. No matter how capable or hardworking I am, I can''tpare to Mr. Cross''s lover." Julia?


    "You''re too kind, Julia. If it were mypany, I''d crush that woman. How dare she act so brazenly?"


    B.

    Seraphina clicked her tongue and smiled. She stepped back and called Hansen, saying, "Do me a favor. There''s something in my bag...


    Hanging up, she saw a waiter passing with red wine. Grabbing a ss, she walked straight towards the


    corner.


    "I''d like to know what kind of lesson Ms. Lane has for me."


    A sudden word freezes the trio, c


    ially Julia, who looked momentarily panicked before regaining her


    "Seraphina, what a coincidence," Julia said with forced calmness.


    "No coincidence. I came specifically for you." Seraphina smiled. She lifted the sses, tilted them, and poured the red wine right onto Julia''s head. 394
