Aron couldn't figure out what he said wrong. Everyone knew Orion had been forced into that marriage.
The internet celebrity girl was trembling with fear. She thought she had a shot at clinging onto someone more powerful, but now she couldn't even speak.
"Orion... "Aron cast a glance at Lucius and asked for his help.
Lucius was about to speak when Orion let out a cold sneer. He mocked, "Aron, why don't you just work for my family as a butler?"
Afterwards. Orion stood up and walked away, leaving Aron behind with a pale face.
Lucius quickly caught up with Orion. There had to be something about Seraphina. That woman was trouble. He clicked his tongue and probed, "Why do you look so upset? We're all friends here. You know Aron speaks without thinking. Don't take it to heart." Orion knew he had overreacted. He didn't expect to lose control of his emotions. However, he found out that those hidden truths had hit him hard. Was this the cause of Seraphina's hatred for him? His chest felt tight and uneasy.
When he stood at the door, the cold wind cleared his mind. Orion lit a cigarette and said, "I know. Just tell him that I wasn't mad at him."
He was mad at himself.
Lucius sighed with relief and said, "Sure, but are you still thinking about that woman?"
Orion shot him a sideways glance. He snorted, apparently too lazy to respond to his probing. "Your restaurant can't compete with this place; just close it down."
Lucius' face darkened with anger, and he chided, "What kind of friend are you?"
The Giant Group's anniversary celebration was a grand event, where celebrities, business tycoons, and politicians were among the guests. Everyone who attended the occasion was rich and influential. Seraphina had done her homework. The Giant Group, though new, had rapidly risen to a large scale in a few years and became renowned. It was impressive to be able to do this.
Their core business focused on 'technology, intelligence, and lifestyle'. Giant Group's core technology was at a level that made many countries pale in comparison.
If they could secure this Al project, the Cross Group could start a whole new frontier in this field.
Therefore, Seraphina came well prepared.

Thes terngnised the man at Sivir Cross from the Cross Group. This man was known for his ruthless and decisive methods
Beside him was a snmming woman with exquisite makeup and stunning features. She had her long curls pinned back, and her gentle appearance concealed a noble air.
She wore a handmade gown adorned with diamonds, and her waist was slender. When this woman stood under the lights, she shone brilliantly, exuding elegance and grace. Some recognised her as Orion's ex-wife.
Hoto could he have divorced such a woman' He must be blinds
Some guests approached and greeted them, "Mr. Cross, your plus one is stunning!
""Mr. Cross, welcome."
Sivir smiled politely, but his smile never reached his eyes. He raised his glass to acknowledge everyone and said, "This is Seraphina, the Vice President of Cross Group. Please take care of her." "She's beautiful and talented. Your plus one must be very capable to hold such a position at Cross Group."
"Impressive, Ms. Seraphina, Please take good care of us in the future."
"We should definitely collaborate sometime."
Seraphina responded gracefully to each person. When the timing was right, Sivir patted her wrist and whispered in her ear, "Mr. Hyatt from the Giant Group is upstairs. Let's go."
This was their real purpose for the trip. Seraphina nodded lightly; her swan-like neck was elegant and fair. Every gesture she made was captivating.
Not far away, Hannah and her friends watched Seraphina receive compliments from the guests. Their expressions were a mix of shock and jealousy. Their carefully chosen dresses paled next to Seraphina's diamond-studded gown, which stole all the attention. Hannah was especially stunned and furious. She had her eye on that Louis Vuitton custom gown for weeks. It was adorned with real diamonds from a famous jewellery brand, worth nearly nine figures. The intention was to keep it exclusive for high-society events. She had tried to rent it but was told it had already been taken and the brand wouldn't produce a replica.
Because the mysterious buyer desire something unique.
Surprisingly, Seraphina was wearing that gown.
What was going on?
