Chapter 536 Maybe It's Best if You Don't Mention It

Seraphina flashed him a knowing smile. "Do you honestly believe that's even possible?"

She had always been firmly on Lila's side, never wavering.

Lucius pursed his lips and leaned in slightly, speaking loud enough for them both to hear.

"If not, I'll have Orion come over to handle things. He's not just about stirring up trouble-he's capable of much worse."

He then directed a pointed look at William, who was standing beside her.

This d*mn Lucius. He's asking for a beating!

Seraphina's chest tightened. How dare he threaten me like this!

But deep down, she knew Lucius wasn't joking-Orion was notorious for his unpredictable temper, and if pushed far enough, he would follow through on whatever he threatened.

If this event went south because of her, the consequences would weigh heavily on her.

A forced smile tugged at Seraphina's lips. After a few moments of silent contemplation, she turned to the

doorman.

"Let Mr. Brown in. I'll vouch for him."

Without waiting for a response, she turned and walked away, clearly wanting to distance herself from Lucius.

William didn't press her for details. Once inside, the temperature felt just right-neither too warm nor too chilly.

He gently helped her remove her coat and handed it to a server who was nearby.

Seraphina smiled and thanked him, about to reach for a glass of red wine, but William stepped in front of her.

"Your leg's only just healed, and you're still on medication. You shouldn't drink," he advised.Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

Seraphina gave him a small, appreciative smile and nodded in agreement. His thoughtful gesture felt like a gentle, comforting breeze.

He handed her a glass of soda water instead, and she accepted it with a grateful smile.

Before they could move deeper into the room, they heard a voice calling out from across the space.

"Sweetie, how long has it been? I've missed you terribly

Kaveh, wearing a sleek black suit, was approaching with his arms open, clearly ready to greet her with a hug.

Suddenly, memories of the gossip she'd heard from Orion resurfaced-Kaveh and Lila were involved.

But before Kaveh could reach her, William stepped forward, extending his hand. "Good evening, Mr. Kaveh."

Kaveh froze, noticing William for the first time. He looked between Seraphina and William, raising an eyebrow before feigning a pout.

"Sweetie, I was clearly first in line! How could you let another man cut in?"

Seraphina rolled her eyes, unimpressed. "What a drama queen."

Kaveh quickly masked his embarrassment and glanced at William.

"You know me?" he asked with a smirk. "I know you too. Mr. Rockwell."

William remained calm, nodding politely.

They exchanged a brief handshake, but Kaveh leaned in with a mischievous grin.

"I think we'd be a perfect match, but as long as you don't choose my uncle, I'm good. But my uncle? He really shouldn't get off so easily."

Seraphina raised an eyebrow, smiling in amusement.

Does your uncle know how you feel about him?

Kaveh's smile faltered. "Well, I'll make sure the message gets to him."

He awkwardly chuckled, quickly backpedaling.

"Actually, maybe it's best if you don't mention it ...

If Uncle Orion ever hears that, I would be in serious trouble.

Just then, the director and Michael walked over, each holding a glass of wine.

The celebrity lineup for the variety show had already caused a stir. Even though Seraphina, Orion, and Henry had pulled out, which had sparked plenty of gossip, the audience was soon captivated by the fresh faces joining the show. Each newcomer brought their own unique flair and a different perspective on how to make a fresh start.

Seraphina and Lila, who were both contemplating divorce, were evidently dissatisfied with their current lives.
