Submission


    Orion paused and stepped forward. His eyes briefly swept over Theresa and Hannah before looking away impassively.


    "What''s the matter?"


    He asked nonchntly.


    Ramona was furious. He jumped to his feet and pointed at Orion.


    "This is your job. You really have no idea about Seraphina''s identity?.


    "I had no idea why you divorced her to this day."


    The atmosphere grew tense; it had been a long time since Ramona had been this mad.Content ? N?velDrama.Org.


    Orion raised his eyes slightly, and his expression remained indifferent. "I don''t know. Divorce ... wasn''t that what you wanted?"


    Otherwise, why would they treat Seraphina awfully?


    Theresa hesitated and quickly signalled Orion with a nce. She said, "Orion, apologise to your grandpa Clearly, it''s Seraphina who deceived everyone. We''ll figure it out when your father returns."


    Orion''s lips curled into a cold, and he let out a mocking smile. "By the time he returns, it will be toote."


    Ramona snorted, "So, what do you propose?"


    Just do as the Crosses suggested and apologise.


    Ramona''s eyes shed with anger. "If an apology could solve everything, do you think I''d be so mad? Apologising would mean admitting that we had ndered and fabricated lies about her. What about ourpany''s stocks and reputation?" Hannah chimed in from the side.


    "Exactly. There''s no need to apologize. We can handle this privately. There''s no need to disgrace the entire family. Even if she''s Emeris''s daughter, it doesn''t mean she''s superior to us."


    If they publicly apologised, my reputation in social circles would suffer. People wouldugh at me!


    No, we couldn''t apologise!


    Orion''s cold gaze swept over her, making Hannah shrink back..


    He let out a light, derisiveugh.


    "Fine, if you don''t want to apologise publicly, then let''s go to their house and apologise."


    "How could we do that?"


    Theresa objected immediately.


    Submission


    That would be humiliating.


    "Enough!"


    Finished


    Ramona''s face turned livid with rage as she looked at Orion. His grandson had always been capable.


    "Is there no other way?"


    "This is the only way."


    Orion replied, and his expression was dark and serious. They had long owed Seraphina an apology.


    Ramona closed his eyes and sighed heavily.


    "Do whatever you think is best."


    He had no choice but to trust Orion''s judgement.


    "Grandpa!"


    Hannah was unwilling to give up.

    Orion''s icy gaze swept over her as he warned, "Hannah, remember how grandpa''s smoking pipe went missing? If you cause trouble again, you can forget about your allowance and start working to earn your own money."


    Hannah shivered at the thought of working. Working?


    Does a heiress like me have to work? That would be the ultimate humiliation.


    ""Mom..."


    She looked to Theresa for assistance, but her son also intimidated her. She had also been involved in the pipe incident and felt guilty. Orion turned without a word, but Ramona stopped him.


    Wait. I don''t care who you associate with outside, but stay away from Jessica. Crosses is still angry, and we can''t afford any missteps. Moreover, during the banquet, Seraphina openly expressed her dislike for Jessica. Repairing rtions with their family was crucial. Orion left without a word, showing no reaction.


    It turned out that everyone had misunderstood his rtionship with Jessica, including Seraphina.


    Once outside, he called Ken.


    Drafting a public apology wasn''t difficult, but Ramona''s attitude was.


    He worked through the night.


    The Dros Group issued an apology letter by noon the fol
