Inherit Billions (Seraphina and Orion) novel Chapter 423

Chapter 423 Offended Orion 

Seraphina couldn’t help but chuckle as she glanced at the wine and the two wine glasses in her hands. 

It seemed that even after his divorce, Orion still attracted a crowd of admirers. 

If he had remained married, the attention would surely have been even greater. 

Her gaze sharpened slightly. How many women had been in his life before? She had no right to interfere back then. 

How could she interfere now? 

As she looked at the wine, she decided to call Ken and ask him to take it away. 

There was no way she would drink alcohol from questionable sources. 

Besides, Nina intended to share this wine with Orion, so it was only fitting that he handle it himself. 

Ken arrived quickly after receiving her call. Seraphina explained the situation briefly. 

When Ken left, he shook his head in disbelief as he took the bottle with him. 

He greeted Orion, explained the circumstances, and then sent the wine for testing. 

The results came back swiftly. 

Ken handed the newly analyzed report to Orion, his voice steady as he spoke, “Mr. Dros, the test results are in. The test results reveal the absence of large doses of dangerous substances, the detection of a mild hallucinogen, and a high alcohol content of 51%. 

As soon as he learned about the drug content, he was on high alert and rushed over to report it. 

Orion scanned the document with a steely gaze, his expression growing more menacing. The flicker of something dark and cruel flashed in his eyes. 

His tone was icy, devoid of warmth. 

“Keep this under wraps to avoid trouble for Seraphina. If she wants to know anything, she can come to me directly. And as for that other woman, let’s blacklist her…” 

“Yes, sir,” Ken replied, standing tall. 

Meanwhile, Michael woke up early and got ready for work, blissfully oblivious to the chaos outside. 

It wasn’t until Ken knocked on his door and handed over the documents for his secretary that Michael paused, momentarily surprised. 

“It’s such a trivial matter! How could I trouble you?” He said it with a smile. 

Everyone knew that Ken only took orders from Orion. He held a unique status within the Dros Group.

“Just a quick errand, Mr. Michael,” Ken said politely. “M. Dros asked me to let you know that this episode is on hold.” 

Michael’s expression froze, his eyes widening in shock, 

“What? Why?” 

“Only Ms. Lila and Ms. Zora 

as leads; Ms. Alessandra and Ms. Nina have both been dropped,” Ken 

explained courteously. 

“What about the others?” He stammered, struggling to process the sudden change. 

He could hardly believe things 

had escalated so quickly 

All they did was knock on the door. 

Feeling guilty, Michael averted his gaze and cautiously asked, “Why did they withdraw? It’s happened so suddenly. 

Ken’s eyes darkened as he stared straight at him, making Michael feel exposed. 

Then, with a knowing smile, Ken said, “You should understand why they withdraw.” 

Is he playing dumb with me? 

Has he forgotten about the surveillance cameras? 

As the sunlight lazily crept through the window, casting bright patterns on Seraphina’s face, she stirred awake. The shadows from the layered curtains danced on the floor around her. 

Seraphina lazily opened her eyes, rubbed them, and quickly adjusted to the dazzling light. 

Her phone suddenly rang. 

She walked over to check the caller ID–it was Michael. 

“It’s early morning, Michael. Are you calling to report on work progress or set up new assignments?” she wondered aloud. 

“Ms. Cross, Ms. Cross, what work can we discuss now? Mr. Dros has fired Alessandra and Nina. Who will fill- their spots?” Michael’s voice trembled with urgency. 

His words struck her like a heavy stone, leaving her momentarily speechless. 

“What? Why? That can’t be!” 

“I… I don’t know. Maybe you should ask Mr. Dros about his brilliant decision yourself,” Michael stammered. 

He suspected the abruptness had something to do with last night’s knock, but it couldn’t possibly be that 

extreme. 

Seraphina hung up, changed her clothes, and set off to confront Orion directly, 

Did he somehow find out about the two women knocking on his door last night? Was he worried it would
