Self-righteous


    Hannah pursed her lips, nning to concoct a reason to smooth things over.


    "Seraphina, she


    Ramona said. "She called me and said that the moment you entered Cross Group, you started mocking her, acting all high and mighty Hannah, do you even think before you act?" Hannah''s expression froze.


    She hadn''t expected Seraphina to preempt her and cut off all her escape routes!


    Naturally, Ramona wouldn''t believe anything she said now.


    Unfortunately, Seraphina once again outwitted her!


    After work. Olivia insisted on taking Seraphina out for drinks.


    Despite feeling a bit tired, Seraphina agreed, thinking it had been a while since she had gone out to rx.


    Olivia didn''t take her to a bar; instead, she led her to a vi.


    "Where are we?" Seraphina asked curiously,


    "A friend''s ce. She''s hosting an amazing party tonight, and she mentioned inviting a lot of handsome guys!


    As soon as they entered, they drew everyone''s attention.Content ? N?velDrama.Org.


    Olivia leaned close to Seraphina''s ear and whispered with a grin, "See anyone you like? Feel free to take


    them home."


    Seraphina rolled her eyes and mocked, "You''re really in the mood, aren''t you?"


    "It''s all about the experience, Olivia said, sticking out her tongue. "I''ll go greet the host. Make yourselffortable."


    Seraphina nodded, finding a quiet spot to sit down..


    Just as she was about to check the stock market price of her phone, a young man approached her. His eyes were flirtatious, and his clothes and watches screamed brand names, as if he wanted everyone to know he was wealthy. He looked like a good-for-nothing rich kid


    His gaze at her was frivolous and arrogant.


    "Ms Cross, I''ve heard so much about you. You''re more beautiful in person than in the pictures online."


    Seraphina nced at him indifferently. She nodded slightly as a form of greeting.


    Since Seraphina didn''t know him and didn''t feel the need to engage in small talk.

    Self-righteous


    Brad Collins''s face turned sour as Seraphina ignored him.


    He hade here intending to discuss a business deal with Orion.

    At that moment, Orion was upstairs with some friends. Orion was drinking silently and unpleasantly whent someone mentioned Seraphina.


    Considering how Seraphina had recently tarnished the Drosses reputation, Brad assumed Orion must have been fuming


    If he could take this opportunity to teach Seraphina a lesson, wouldn''t that earn him Orion''s favour?


    Perhaps Orion might even give them a bit of leeway in their coboration out of gratitude!


    With this in mind, he grew bolder.


    Brad stared at Seraphina with an even more brazen look.


    "How about I buy you a drink, Ms. Cross?"


    He offered her a ss of wine.


    Seraphina nced at the ss with indifference, not making a move to take it.


    She looked up at Brad, her gaze cold.


    "I don''t drink."


    Her refusal was straight-forward.


    She didn''t drink just any beverage offered by random people..


    The man before her was particrly repulsive.


    Brad was dissatisfied with the rejection. He let out a sneer.


    "Ms. Cross, you''re ying the role of a career woman while mingling in high society. How could you not drink? Are you being disrespectful?"


    His condescending tone implied that Seraphina was all show, a strong facade with no real substance.


    What kind of so-called female CEO is she? Her impressive title is merely a fa?ade.


    Just a rich kid herself, and divorced at that.


    What did she have to be proud of?


    Seraphina''s expression remained cold, and she smirked mockingly.


    Her voice was icy-cold.


    "Yes, I don''t feel like it!"


    Under the lights, Seraphina looked stunning and alool


    Self-righteous


    Without any extra expression-just one look-she could overwhelm that young man in front of her with


    her aura.


    Who did he think he was?


    Did he deserve her respect


    She didn''t want to stay there for another second. She immediately stood up, nning to find Olivia.


    Quite a few people around had noticed themotion.


    Brad felt both humiliated and frustrated as Seraphina disrespected him. He rushed forward to grab her arm and started cursing.


    "Seraphina, do you really think you''re somebody? Just a woman who got kicked out of the house! Tell me, how much for a drink? I have plenty of money!"
