8amAs Seraphina applied her lipstick, her phone buzzed, she placed her lipstick on the vanity table.She picked up her phone,“Mr. Cross, Good morning?” she said.“Dr. St. Claire, You need to come over to the West Manor” Cassian said.“I’ll be right there” Seraphina picked up her Stethoscope, a black file and lab coat before hurrying out.When she arrived, she put on the lab coat and opened the door.The untouched breakfast tray sat beside the bed while the medical staff remained unusually silent.Seraphina glanced briefly toward Amelia, catching the stiffness in her expression before the woman quickly looked away.Seraphina’s sharp gaze swept across the untouched medication.“Are you being difficult again, Mr. Laurent?”The expression on her face made clear she was not here for games.Damien’s attention lingered on her longer than it should have.For the first time since she arrived at the Laurent Ridge, she looked less like an untouchable surgeon and more like a woman

"His gaze sharpened. "I've heard countless stories about Celeste St. Claire.""Yet somehow, I've never heard a single one about you." He said. "Why is that?"Seraphina smiled faintly,"Fame was never my priority." She turned toward the door.
