A Night of Drunkenness


    In the dim light, Orion suddenly raised his head. His dark and cold eyes locked onto the young man before him. His gaze was filled with an intense, biting chill, with a hint of blood-red fury mixed in.


    Without warning, he mmed the bottle in his hand onto the table in front of him.


    Crash!


    The sound of shattering ss echoed in the room as the bottle and sses on the ss tabletop exploded into pieces, scattering everywhere. Shards of ss flew across the young man''s face, drawing blood that began to trickle from the cuts. The room fell into a dead silence, and the air frozen with tension.


    The young man turned pale, too frightened to utter a word.


    He knew he had said the wrong thing and hit a nerve.


    Orion''s eyes zed red. His entire presence exuded a fierce, icy aura. He stood up and red down at the young man with pure contempt


    Who the hell do you think you are? You don''t even deserve to say her name!"


    His voice was cold and dangerous, full of suppressed rage.


    In a single stride, he approached the young man and kicked him without warning. The young man curled up in pain, his body trembling, cold sweat pouring from his forehead.


    No one in the room dared to speak a word. Everyone in their social media circle needs to be good at reading Orion''s mood.


    "Orion!"


    Lucius quickly stepped forward and tried to stop him. He urged, "Calm down!"


    Turning to the others, Lucius said, "Everyone, he has had too much to drink. I''ll handle things here. You should leave."


    No one objected. They said their hasty goodbyes, even taking the half-conscious young man with them as they left. Only Orion and Lucius remained in the chaotic room.


    Orion was struggling to contain the violent urge boiling inside him. His veins bulged as his entire body tensed up.


    Lucius walked over and patted his shoulder, pushing him back into his seat.


    He called for someone to clean up the mess and bring in more expensive alcohol.


    "I know you''re here to drink. So go ahead," Lucius said, pouring a ss for him and one for himself.


    Orion sat there and downed a ss in one gulp. The burning liquid slid down his throat, loosening the

    He buried his head in his hands, and his shoulders were shaking slightly.


    "She suffered so much because of me, and I didn''t even know."


    There had been so many things he hadn''t known, and he had treated her poorly. What kind of despair must she have felt in those three years?


    And all the while, he had been forcing her to forgive him. Seraphina probably hated him by now.


    Orion''s throat tightened. It felt like a hand had clenched around his heart, squeezing painfully, the agony overwhelming


    He hated himself more than anything.


    Why had he stood by while she was being bullied within the Dros family?


    Why had he stayed indifferent to everything she had done?


    Why did he take the opportunity to marry her for granted?


    Now, there was no way to start over.

    s Seraphina would never throw herself into anything for him again.


    Lucius listened to Orion''s cryptic ramblings. Though he didn''t fully understand, it was clear that it was all about Seraphina


    He dared not offend Orion in the first ce. Now, Orion found himself in a state of remorse and defeat. It was obvious that he had fallen for Seraphina.


    Orion kept drinking, one ss after another, his eyes gradually turning bloodshot and unfocused.


    Before long, he had consumed most of the alcohol on the table. All he could do was mutter, "Seraphina.... Seraphina...N?velDrama.Org holds this content.


    Lucius sighed. "Do you like Seraphina that much?"


    What''s so special about her?


    Orion was wasted and lost his consciousness, but at the mention of Seraphina''s name, he had an instinctive reaction.


    "I like her. I like her a lot. I''d give my life to love her... but she doesn''t care!"


    Orion''s voice was hoarse, choked with emotion.


    He wanted to love her properly, just like Seraphina had once loved him with her whole heart.


    Lucius stood up and said, "You''ve had too much to drink. Let me take you home."

    Lucius replied as he hoisted him up and carried him out.
