She Will Be Your Wife

It turned out that the girl was an illegitimate daughter.

Seraphina nodded slightly. If you're not a part of that world, understanding the secrets of the rich and powerful can be quite challenging.

That explained why Lacinda was so different from the typical rich girl of high society.

Wilson cleared his throat and said, "Scandals in wealthy families, huh? Everyone loves to hear them

Seraphina couldn't help but exchange a simile with hiri

Their expressions softened, and they were standing quite close. They seem intimate in the eyes of mutaders.

Could those online rumors be true?

Was Wilson really Seraphina's new flame!

From a distance, the sight was unbearable for Orion.

Clarke had deliberately left his daughter with Orion, hoping to give them a chance to bond.

Lucinda was nervous and excited. She had lived under the shadow of being an illegitimate daughter for twenty years, but now that Clarke's legitimate wife had passed away, she finally had a chance to rise within the Crockers. Her father had given her a big opportunity.

Before, she could never live like Fiona-proud, elegant, and in the spotlight. She was always undeserving

Even after moving into the Crocker mansion, no one respected her. Even the servants treated her with disdain.

If she could marry Orion, who would look down on her as an illegitimate daughter!

Her father had told her that if the Droses weren't interested in forming a marriage alliance with prominent family, he wouldn't have even acknowledged her.

The only reason she mattered was that Fiona was already married, and her existence became useful for this union

Lucinda, though displeased, knew this was her only chance.

She stole a glance at Orion, whose face she had only seen on TV and in magazines-cold, refined, and standing right in front of her.

Biting her lip, she gathered her courage and stepped forward.

"Mr. Dros, it's really nice to meet you."

She was aware that the woman she had met earlier, who was even more stunning than a movie star, was Orion's ex-wife. In real life, she was as dazzling as a precious gem. 1/3

Their entanglement had been all over the internet, but Lucinda didn't care.

They were divorced now, so there was nothing to worry about.

Despite not having the same family background as that woman, she was determined to marry Orion at any cost.

Men didn't like women who were too assertive, after all,

But her attempt at a warm greeting didn't get a response from Orion.

She looked up.

Orion fixed his cold gaze on Seraphina and Wilson.

Lucinda bit her lip and took another step forward, reaching out to hold Orion's hand.

"Shall we go somewhere else to get some rest?"

Before her hand could touch his sleeves, Orion's icy voice rang out.

"Don't touch me!"

Her hand froze in midair.

Orion's tone was indifferent, devoid of any warmth.

Lucinda's face flushed with embarrassment.

"I... I'm sorry.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

Even after apologized, she didn't leave.

Lucinda awkwardly retracted her hand and bit her lip again. She offered, "Mr. Dros, shall I get you something to eat?" Orion frowned and tried his best to suppress his growing irritation.

"That won't be necessary."

He tolerated Clarke because they were business partners, but he had no intention of accommodating Clarke's daughter. Especially after Clarke had so tactlessly offended Seraphina earlier.

Just then, Orion's phone rang.

He looked down at the screen-it was Ramona.

After a brief hesitation, he glanced at Lucinda.

She immediately took the hint and stepped back a distance away.

He answered the call.

"Hello?"

"You've been out for quite a while now. Have you made any progress with Seraphina?

Ramona's voice was old and raspy, carrying a strong and forceful tone.

Orion's expression darkened slightly.

"Do you need something?"

Ramona scoffed.

"I've been thinking. You've been neglecting the company for an extended period and wasting amount of time with this woman. If you haven't gained anything by now, it's time to cut your losses family doesn't need to have a marriage alliance with the Crosses. If this drags on, people will start laughing

Orion's eyes grew colder, a layer of frost settling in them.

"Impossible."

He would never give up on Seraphina.

Even if she was a bottomless pit, he would risk everything he had for her.

Ramona yelled, "How long will you continue to act foolishly for a woman?"

"Is there anything else?"

Orion's voice was cold, uninterested in any more of her scolding

Ramona sighed heavily and said, "I don't care what you're thinking. I refuse to allow a woman to bring our family business to ruin. I've already put the word out that we're looking for a suitable wife for you. Plenty of people are eager to offer their daughters. Remember, don't become overly attached to a single tree.

Orion's expression was incredibly cold.

"Other than Seraphina, I want no one!"

"You br't! Stop dreaming. Let me tell you something-the chairman of Crocker Group has already called me. He has a younger daughter who just returned from abroad. She's quite good-looking, and they're willing to marry her off. You should chat with her. If she meets your expectations, she will become your wife."

Ramona's words made it clear that he had made up his mind.
