Her Birthday


    "What?" Seraphina was shocked.


    "A warning? How did you warn him? Is Uncle Alexander trying to push someone into thepany?"


    Sivir''s lips curled into a cold smile.


    "It''s not that simple. He''s aiming to get into the shareholders'' meeting. He''s been secretly buying uppany shares and reaching out to arge number of shareholders. It looks like he''s got his eye on ourpany."


    Seraphina''s expression darkened slightly.


    "Flora and Grace visited our home recently. That woman was trying to get Grace a high position in thepany, but we turned them down. Could this be part of their inside-outside n?"


    Sivir scoffed in disdain, his eyes cold and distant.


    "Dream on."


    "But how did you warn him?" Seraphina was curious about this.


    Sivir smirked.


    "If he''s buying shares, he must have made quite a profit. So, I had the tax officers schedule an audit for hispany in Lacuna for tomorrow."


    Seraphina was left speechless.

    That move was genius.


    Sivir reached out and tapped her forehead gently.


    "Focus on preparing for your birthday party. It''s a great chance to build business connections."


    At Dros Group, Lucius ignored Ken''s attempts to stop him and excitedly burst into Orion''s office.


    Orion frowned, his expression cool, as he looked at Lucius.


    He mocked, "I bet youe here more often than you go home."


    Lucius raised an eyebrow and walked forward with a casual swagger. He waved a pale yellow invitation in his hand.


    It was elegant and ssy, perfectly matching the status of the Crosses.


    "Seraphina''s birthday ising up. I figured you hadn''t received an invitation, so I snatched one from a


    friend."


    Orion''s face instantly darkened, his gaze coldly sweeping over Ken. His assistant immediately lowered his head, avoiding eye contact.


    Her Birthday


    The Cross Group hadn''t sent an invitation.


    Ken stayed silent, nor did he feel embarrassed.


    Orion''s expression became inexplicably grim.


    Seraphina''s birthday?


    He didn''t even know when it was.


    Some husband he was.


    The thought left a heavy feeling in his chest, making it difficult to breathe.


    Lucius walked over and patted his shoulder.


    44 Finished


    "I thought you''d appreciate it. Why aren''t you happy? You don''t want to go? Well, it''s a shame if you don''t."


    Ken regretted standing there.


    Is Mr. Brown out of his mind?


    Did he have a death wish by joking around with Mr. Dros like that?


    Suddenly, the temperature in the office seemed to drop to freezing.


    His scalp tingled with fear.


    Orion stared at Lucius until the smile faded from his face.


    The room was silent for a moment before Lucius coughed awkwardly, cing the invitation on the desk


    "Come on, Orion. Without you there to back me up. I''ll be so lonely on my own."


    He pleaded. Lucius was providing him with a way out and a reason toe. He was a good friend indeed. Orion picked up the invitation and checked the date.


    It was the next evening.


    He felt a sense of calm wash over him as he thought about it.


    Orion barely registered what Lucius was saying. He remained silent, immersed in his own thoughts.


    When he snapped back to attention, Lucius carefully observed his despair.


    Orion''s gaze grew colder, his eyes sharper. He spoke in a calm, steady tone.


    Your father had his eyes on that project in Easton for a while, wasn''t he?"


    Lucius frowned, then his eyes lit up.


    "Orion, are you saying? That''s too generous."


    Her Birthday!


    Orion suppressed his emotions with a calm expression


    "If you don''t want it, forget it."


    "I want it!" Lucius responded quickly.


    The Hilton Hotel.


    Seraphina''s birthday party was a grand event, attracting many of the city''s elite.


    As Sivir had said, it was a wonderful opportunity to forge new connections.


    Emeris spared no expense for his daughter''s party, where he rented the entire hotel and lined the streets with bodyguards to protect the guests.


    The hotel was brightly lit, exuding luxury and elegance.


    A massive electronic billboard outside disyed a stunning photo of Seraphina, looking both beautiful and fierce.


    "Happy Birthday, Seraphina!"


    The message dominated social media, trending at the top and upying ad spaces worth millions This celebration was more extravagant and luxurious than any of thepany''s previous events. Seraphina was openly pampered by the Crosses, making her the brightest star of the evening.
