Why is he smiling?

Seraphina suddenly lost her appetite when she saw the grin on Orion's face.

She put down her fork and rolled her eyes at him.

Instead of getting angry, the smile on his face deepened

Orion noticed Seraphina as she fumed. She was frustrated but unable to fully express her annoyance. Suddenly, he found her even more adorable; even her eye roll looked cute. How had he never noticed this before? Emeris and Ramona were deep in conversation, while Sivir glanced over at his sister and Orion.

Something about the way they were exchanging glances. Is this tension between them an indication that things are taking an unexpected turn?

"Oh, Mr. Orion, Sivir chimed in, steering the conversation in another direction. "I heard your family has lost quite a few ships at sea. If you need assistance, the Crosses fleet is at your disposal." Sivir smiled casually and changed the subject, which diverted Orion's attention.

Seraphina was about to breathe a sigh of relief when Orion responded with a simple "Sure. After that, he turned his attention back to her, his smile still lingering,

Her patience was wearing thin.

What is his game? Would this ever end?

Not willing to stick around any longer, she turned to her father and said, "Dad, I just remembered I have plans with Olivia. I should go."

She had expressed all the necessary points, and the remainder of the event held minimal significance.

Emeris agreed and said, "Alright, go on then."

Seraphina smiled and bid her farewells. "Goodbye, Dad Goodbye, Mr. Dros."

Without waiting for a reply, she gathered her belongings and hurried out the door.

She didn't get far before Orion caught up with her.

"Seraphina."

She stopped in her tracks and turned to glare at her in annoyance. Since when did Orion become so clingy?

Did he lose his mind today?

"Mr. Dros, is there something else you need?"

Her voice was cold and distant. Did he really think that just having a meal together could somehow bridge the gap between them? 1/3

That meal was only for appearances; nothing more.

Orion stared at her icy gaze. He was momentarily taken aback. He stepped closer, controlling his emotions, his expression calm y intense.

His dark, brooding eyes locked onto hers. Orion's imposing demeanor filled the air between them.

"Your father just said we should interact like a normal couple," he said, his voice cold and restrained. "You need to listen to him." Seraphina was confused with his words. She frowned and rebuked, "That's not what he meant."

"What did I say he meant?"

Orion's lips curled into a slight smirk.

Seraphina choked on her words and asked, "Who knows what you mean by anything?"

Before she could respond, someone abruptly grabbed her phone out of her hand.

In a flash. Orion's fingers were already tapping on her screen, and she removed his number from her block list.

You can't block me anymore, or I'll have to tell your dad," he said, his tone matter-of-fact, as if he had every right to make this demand. Seraphina was stunned.

How could this guy say something so ridiculous and be so confident about it?

Dad had clearly told him to keep his distance!

Seraphina was on the verge of losing her mind. Did this man even understand anything? How could he Twist Daddy's words so much?

She grabbed her phone back. Seraphina lowered her gaze and glanced at the screen. She felt herself grow even more furious.

Orion even named himself the Lifesaver!

The nerve of this man! He's shameless!

Is he trying to make it too embarrassing to delete his number?

Biting her lip in frustration, Seraphina decided she had no more words for him. She turned on her heel and walked off.

Unbothered, Orion followed at a leisurely pace, almost as if he were walking in her shadow. When she sped up, so did he. When she slowed down, he matched her pace. As they approached the doorway, Orion suddenly spoke from behind her.

"Seraphina, how about I teach you how to swim?"

mentioned that she didn't know how to swim.

For someone as fierce and determined as Seraphina, how could she not know how to swim?

He wanted to teach her to swim so she would be safer when she faced that kind of danger again

"Swim?" Seraphina let out a mocking laugh. "Orion, I know exactly what you're up to. If I want to learn how to swim, I'll hire a professional instructor-not a scumbag like you!"

With that, she quickened her pace.

Teach me how to steim? What a joke!

He just wants to use this as an excuse to get intimate with mel
