Inherit Billions (Seraphina and Orion) novel Chapter 73

Chapter 73 Past Glory vs Future Achievement 

Hearing Seraphina relent, Orion immediately perked up. 

He urged, “Tell me.” 

It seemed that as long as she was willing to name her condition, he was willing to agree to anything. 

Seraphina glanced at Aiden and asked, “Can we talk in private?” 

Though taken aback, Aiden quickly composed himself. He agreed, “Of course.” 

Adjusting his tie, Aiden walked out without hesitation. 

A tense atmosphere persisted when Orion and Seraphina were alone. If Orion hadn’t insisted on Aiden inviting Seraphina to have dinner with his name, Aiden wouldn’t have brought these two divorced individuals together, as it could have affected their collaboration. 

Thomas tactfully exited the room. 

With just the two of them left, Orion waited silently for Seraphina to speak. Seraphina didn’t seem to be in any hurry. 

He was still processing Aiden’s suggestion–remarry? 

Orion was tempted by that suggestion. After the divorce, he realised just how charming Seraphina truly was. If they remarried, he vowed to cherish her. 

Seraphina had no intention of getting back together with him. Her conflicts with the Droses were far too 

many. 

Seraphina let out a fake smile; the gaze in her eyes was one of melancholy before returning to normal. 

She glanced at Orion’s downcast eyes and smiled playfully. 

“Want to hear my condition?” 

Before he could respond, Seraphina continued. 

“I want you to withdraw from the Giant Group project and transfer the shares to me.” 

Orion’s head shot up abruptly, and he asked in shock, “What?” 

Seraphina chuckled and added, “I’ve given it some thought. The Giant Group project will be my main focus, but with your family involved, I might constantly run into people I dislike, which would ruin my mood. If your family withdraws from the project, you can get the pipe back, and I won’t have to deal with them. It’s a win–win!” 

She said it casually. 

“Impossible!” Orion refused immediately. 

Though Seraphina made it sound trivial, Orion knew the Giant Group’s AI project had immense potential. Once successful, Giant Group would change the world!

As long as his company joined this venture, it would bring them huge profits as well as a chance to rise to the elite status of the Crosses. 

The smoking pipe represented the Droses past glory, whereas the Giant Group project represented their future. 

Seraphina wasn’t just asking for peace; she was asking for him to give up his company’s future. 

Between the past and the future, Orion chose the future without hesitation. 

Given his firm refusal, Seraphina smiled nonchalantly and tossed her cigarette into the ashtray. She stood up, grabbed her purse, and walked out in her high heels. 

“If you don’t agree, then there’s nothing more to discuss.” 

As she left, Orion’s gaze turned complex. 

How much did Seraphina hate his family, and how much did she despise their marriage? 

Walking out, Seraphina found Thomas waiting nearby. They walked to the entrance and saw Aiden in the lobby. He seemed to be on the phone, and his smile was one of tenderness and affection. 

When Aiden saw her, he quickly ended the call and approached with polite small talk. He asked, “Seraphina, how did the talk go?” 

“I enjoyed it.” She replied with a faint smile, “As for the other person, not so much.” 

Aiden had invited Seraphina to dinner primarily to provide an opportunity for her and Orion to talk. 

Now that their conversation was over, the dinner had become secondary. 

Orion wanted to use the dinner as an opportunity to bond with Seraphina; therefore, he decided to stay. 

However, Seraphina didn’t give him the chance. When Aiden extended the invitation, she left her assistant to deal with it and drove home on her own. 

The three men exchanged glances somewhat awkwardly. In the end, the trio ended up having dinner together.
