Teaching Her a Lesson

On the sidelines, Theresa scoffed contemptuously at Seraphina, “Did you look in the mirror before⚫ coming here? Seraphina, are you here searching for another lover to flaunt your arrogance?

“What right does a woman ousted from the Dros family have to show her face here?”

Sivir responded with a sneer, his presence commanding, “Ousted from the family? Since when has the Dros family sunk so low? They really excel at bending the truth! He was seething, pondering the kind of treatment Seraphina must have endured under the Dros family.

Caught off guard, Theresa’s face turned red. She snapped at the manager. “Why are you still standing there? I don’t want to see them here!”

The manager responded firmly, “Mrs. Dros, Ms. Dros, Mr. Cross is a major shareholder of this restaurant. If you prefer not to see them, you are free to leave.”

Theresa and Hannah were taken aback, showing varying degrees of shock. Seraphina gave a cold smirk. “Let’s not escalate this over a simple meal. I need to discuss something with you two.” Then Seraphina turned to Sivir, and instructed. “Go inside and wait for me.”

Although visibly upset, Sivir saw a different side of Seraphina and decided to trust her handling of the situation.

Sivir nodded slightly and proceeded inside, his compliance catching everyone off guard.

Theresa and Hannah were not scared of her. Hannah, undeterred, retorted, “You should recognise your place. No matter which elite circle you attempt to enter the Dros family will shun you. My brother never cared for you, and I will make sure you find no success in Golden Bay!”

Seraphina responded with a faint, detached smile. So, what do you propose?”

“How about you start by pouring me a drink as an apology? You’ve served enough people, especially in the Dros family. I’ll consider forgiving you this time.”

Hannah raised an eyebrow, expecting Seraphina to apologise to her.

Seraphina calmly picked up the decanter, poured a glass of wine with finesse, and extended it to her.

Hannah sneered, but just as she was about to take the glass, she felt a chilling sensation on her head

The wine from Seraphina’s glass cascaded ruthlessly over Hannah. Before Hannah could react, Seraphina shoved her back, leaning in to whisper icily in her ear.

“Ms. Dros, remember, I was the one who initiated the divorce. I chose to walk away from the Dros family. Speak out of turn again, and I’ll show you who really can’t make it in Golden Bay!”

As Seraphina strutted away, her movement was poised and composed. Still in shock, Hannah had not fully grasped what had just occurred, while Theresa vocally berated the scene, demanding the manager servers to clean up.

“Is Seraphina out of her mind? How dare she do this! Theresa fumed.

However, Seraphina was already being led by the manager to the VIP lounge across the room.

Hannah, her appearance dishevelled with her hair and outfit stained by red wine, suddenly realised her predicament. She was on the verge of going after Seraphina when a waiter intervened, suggesting, “Ms. Dros, we have some clothes for you to change into. Would you like to use them?”Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Feeling the eyes of the crowd on her, an agitated Hannah stomped her foot and declared, “I won’t let her get away with this!”

Sivir’s mood was visibly sour, but Seraphina seemed unaffected. She looked up at him with a smile. “Sivir. Olivia and I are planning to go shopping tonight. Would you like to join us?”

Sivir shot her a frosty look. “You’re still in the mood for shopping and dining after the way the Dros family treated you? They look down on you!”

Seraphina sighed and shrugged, a cool edge to her gaze. “It doesn’t matter. I don’t dwell on it. It’s all in the past. As long as they leave me be in the future, it’s fine. But if they provoke me, I won’t back down.”

After finishing their meal, they left the restaurant and saw Orion’s car waiting outside.

Seated inside, Hannah was eager to air her grievances to Orion as soon as Seraphina appeared. Tears mixed with frustration as she lamented, “It was her, Orion. I just embarrassed myself-all because of that woman, Seraphina. Mom can vouch for me, too.”a
