Inherit Billions (Seraphina and Orion)

Chapter 60 Their Plan Backfire The staff politely placed the items in front of Seraphina. She lifted them up for a closer look and noticed a small red stain at the pipe's base. It was genuine.

"Thank you," Seraphina said to the staff member.

She completely ignored the two people standing beside her. Theresa couldn't hold back any longer and let out a cold snort. "Seraphina, do you have your eyes on the ground? Do you not know basic manners when you see an older person?" How had they treated her before? They never thought she was a junior. Now they want to act like elders? Seraphina's eyes flickered as she raised an eyebrow. "Oh, Mrs. Dros is here, too. What a coincidence." Her words were enough to anger anyone.

Theresa's face turned pale with rage. She chided, "You have crossed the line. Did you really think you could disregardnow that you have support? Don't forget, I am your mother-in-law!" When they hadn't divorced, Theresa never saw herself as Seraphina's mother-in-law. She always saw herself as the master, treating Seraphina like a servant.

Every tSeraphina returned to the estate, Theresa would openly and covertly ridicule her humble efforts to please, making her do chores and scolding her at every turn. She'd paraded numerous socialites in front of her, sharing Orion's contact details to make Seraphina back off. Seraphina had always been a thorn in Theresa's side. Seraphina couldn't help but chuckle, asking, "Are you getting senile? I divorced your son long ago. Go ahead and be someone else's mother-in-law." "Seraphina, you're truly disrespectful. How can you talk to an elder so disrespectfully?" Hannah couldn't help but interject. She had been deeply wounded by Seraphina's previous retort and now felt intimidated every tshe saw her." With her mother here, she felt emboldened.

The atmosphere grew tense. Seraphina's smile faded. She glanced coolly at Hannah and asked, "Are you trying to lecture me?" Hannah shrank back, falling silent, and looked at her mother.

These two had initially planned to give Seraphina a hard time, then coax her a bit and take the pipe away, but Seraphina wasn't playing by their rules.

Had there not been staff in the room, Theresa would have approached this more directly long ago. She had no patience for such entanglements.

Theresa was growing anxious, and she said, "Seraphina, I'll give you 4.5 million for the pipe! I'm leaving with it." She had already contacted Orion. The truth couldn't be hidden. If Seraphina took the pipe, not only would Ramona be furious, but her husband wouldn't let her off either! 1/3 16:59 Wed, Oct 9 GB B Chapter 60 Their Plan Backfire.

Finished Seraphina paused and said with a smile, "If you had 4.5 million, you should have offered it during the auction. It's too late now. "I've contacted Orion. He'll be here soon." Theresa knew how obsessed Seraphina was with her son. Once Orion arrived, Seraphina would surely relent just to see him.

"It doesn't matter if he comes or not. The pipe is mine." Seraphina smiled. Did they think she was still the foolish woman from three years ago? Did they think just hearing Orion's nwould make her forget everything? "Seraphina, 4.5 million isn't a small sum. Can you really afford it?" She didn't believe that Seraphina, who once entered the Dros family penniless, could easily cup with 4.5 million.

Back then, she showed up with no money and faced much disdain. Theresa had felt utterly humiliated by such a daughter-in-law.

Although her daughter claimed Seraphina had many men around her now, no one would be foolish enough to spend so much money on a divorced woman, right? Seraphina smirked and pulled out a black card from her bag. She handed it to the staff and said, "Swipe the card." She did it without hesitation.

"Of course, Ms. Cross." The staff took the card with both hands.

Theresa and Hannah stared at her with pale faces. Panicking, Hannah turned and frantically dialled snumbers in the background.

Who is she calling? Orion? Seraphina smiled. No one could change the outcome! 4.5 million was spent in a second, but Seraphina displayed no hesitation or doubt.

She could even offer more if she wanted, as long as she felt like it.

"What use do you have for this pipe? Why spend so much on it?" Theresa softened her tone, trying a different approach.

"I simply wanted everyone to have a look. You know it's Ramona's lifeline. Without it, he might not survive. Do you really want to see him suffer in his old age?" Theresa began to cry as she gave her speech.

Who is she putting the show on for? 2/3 16:59 Wed, Oct 9 Chapter 60 Their Plan Backfire Seraphina watched coldly and found it amusing.

Finished

"If it's his lifeline, you putting it up for sale is killing him, isn't? If he has a miserable old age, it's your fault, not mine! Why am I supposed to worry about it?

"I bought it fair and square. Everyone here can attest to that Ramanalhad been a force in the business world. He knows the meaning of 'integrity." "It's done, Ms. Cross." The staff carefully returned the card to her.

Seraphina took it and signed her non necessary documents! Just like that she officially owned the pipe. Then, the door suddenly swung open.
