Seraphina tugged at his sleeve and said worriedly, "Dad, today is a big day for our company. Let's not make a scene that could embarrass us. It's one thing to make them a laughingstock, but dragging us into it isn't worth it." "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

Emeris straightened his clothes and walked out.

Just then, Olivia and Sarah walked in, one after the other. "Hello, Emeris."

Emeris nodded and looked at them kindly. He said, "Olivia and Sarah, both of you are good friends of Seraphina. I have prepared a lot of jewellery today. You girls should pick something you like before you leave." Olivia and Sarah exchanged a glance and bowed together. "Thank you, Emeris!"

Olivia and Sarah excitedly gathered around Seraphina. "Seraphina, you finally didn't have to hide your identity anymore. After today, the whole world will be in awe of you!"

Seraphina smiled faintly. Her eyes carried a twinge of coldness. She said, "My identity is secondary. I just dislike that the company got dragged into this mess."

Olivia stepped closer and revealed, "Do you know who we just saw?"

Sarah raised an eyebrow and said, "You'd never guess."

Seraphina frowned and asked, "Who is it?"

"The Droses actually brought that bitch Jessica along with them!" Olivia fumed, unable to hold back her

anger.

"Do you think they knew you might be here and brought her here to disgust you?"

Seraphina grinned and agreed, "Well, it's disgusting indeed."

Sarah pursed her lips before continuing, "The Droses are here to shatter your hope of marrying into the Crosses. Do you know what news I just received from Hansen?"

Without waiting for them to guess, she continued, "Hansen said Romano has already made the arrangement with the media. As soon as you show up tonight, the tabloids will be filled with stories about how you failed as a social climber and were kicked out of high society."

Seraphina chuckled coldly. That old man was so predictable, always using the same tired tricks.

She turned to Olivia and asked, "Did you give my invitation to that person?"

Olivia raised an eyebrow and said, "Of course. He's a high-status man who rarely attends such business banquets. But since he's a classmate of my father, I went personally to ask him, and he agreed to come with his subordinates. I saw him arrive earlier." 1/2

"Who is it?" Sarah was puzzled.

Olivia grabbed her hand and whispered mysteriously, "You'll see soon enough. It'll definitely infuriate the Droses."

Sarah sighed helplessly and said, "Alright, I'll just sit back and enjoy the show."

There was still some time before the event started. Before changing her attire, Seraphina decided to go to the restroom. As she was about to wash her hands, she heard a familiar, mean voice.

"Haven't seen that bitch, Seraphina, have you?" It was Theresa's voice.

It wasn't surprising she was here; after all, she was Mrs. Dros.

"No, does she even belong in a place like this? Right now, she's a public enemy. She should have hidden now; how could she show up here?" Hannah's voice dripped with sarcasm.

"Exactly. A lowly woman will always be lowly. Does she think that just because she latched onto the Crosses, she can be a member of the upper echelons? Haha, Romano has made it clear. The Crosses are holding this grand anniversary celebration specifically to break ties with Seraphina and clarify the rumours about her and Sivir. Soon, she'll have no choice but to hand over the smoking pipe to us with both hands." Theresa washed her hands. Her words were brimming with unmasked arrogance.

Hannah chuckled and said, "Mom, you're the smartest. Bringing Jessica here as Orion's date is a masterstroke. If Seraphina sees it, she'll probably be so mad that she will vomit blood! Hahaha!"

Bang! The restroom door swung open forcefully, cutting off Hannah's laughter.

Seraphina walked out leisurely. She raised an eyebrow and smiled coldly.

"I didn't vomit blood from rage. Disappointed?"
