Chapter 293

Author: Andrea North
Seraphine couldn't help but feel the force in his presence—that quiet authority in his voice that didn't leave room for argument. Her body tensed a little.

She didn't understand why Elliott kept helping her. Ever since the night he had saved her in the underground garage, there had been some kind of connection between them.

There was always a hint of sadness in his eyes when he looked at her, like she had done something to hurt him. She couldn't shake that feeling.

After a pause, she answered earnestly, "Eli, I just don't want you to get dragged into this. It's my problem, and I can handle it."

She believed she could.

Her voice was soft and gentle, not flat or sharp. There was a warmth in it, a kind of quiet concern that wrapped around him like a cardigan.

Seraphine could tell Elliott wasn't someone who talked much. He always spoke in short, careful words, but with her, he was patient and talkative. She was smart enough to notice that.

He understood that she didn't want him to g

    Although the public loved gossip, not everyone was blind or easily manipulated. Most people refused to follow the hired trolls and instead judged the situation with clarity.Seeing so many people defending her, Seraphine logged into L's account and left a message. She thanked them for standing with her and said that she wouldn't lose with justice on her side. Taking the case to court was her way of protecting both her own reputation and the company's.The moment the post went live, Annalise's assistant saw it and immediately showed it to her.Annalise narrowed her eyes. Seraphine had earned a measure of her respect.She waved her assistant away and glanced at Clarissa, who sat beside her with Annalise's hand resting on her waist."Clary, look at Mysteria Studio's L. She really wants a courtroom showdown."Seraphine had some ability, but nothing Annalise considered threatening. Still, the fact that Seraphine chose to fight head-on surprised her.Clarissa gave a mocking smile. "An

    Seraphine pointed at the screen. "Eli, I'm checking the market. I just sold the stock that rose the most. Made a lot of money. Tomorrow, I'm taking you shopping for clothes."Elliott looked at her animated face, surprise flickering in his eyes. He really had married a treasure.When he saw the brokerage name, he paused. It belonged to Charles Callahan.What was he playing at? A capital trap?His suspicion was confirmed moments later as the chart collapsed in a sharp nosedive.Seraphine had already secured her profit, and Elliott smiled. As long as nothing troubled Seraphine, he would not concern himself with the rest."Alright," he said, genuinely excited to see what she picked for him.All these years, the kindness she had shown Clifford filled him with jealousy.When Clifford was sick, Seraphine stayed by his side, caring for him tenderly, serving him drinks, and feeding him medicine.When Clifford's stomach flared, she adjusted his treatments and mixed remedies for him.

    Chester handed him the phone, astonished. "Mr. Johansen, this is unbelievable. 20-fold increase. Today is the third day. Should we sell?"Clifford let out a cold laugh. "No. Seraphine's judgment isn't always right. Hold it."Chester was stunned. Ignoring sound advice meant swallowing the consequences."If you won't sell, I will. I put in two million dollars. Cashing out now will earn me a fortune. Even my principal is back."He sold his shares immediately.Clifford did not dare gamble either, but the past three days had been volatile. The fluctuations had triggered a chain reaction, and no one wanted to sell too early. The price kept climbing, and opportunities like this were rare.He had monitored it closely for days. Today was the highest point.Chester reminded him, "Mr. Johansen, Ms. Lodge is never wrong about this. If we don't cash out today, it may be difficult later."Clifford narrowed his eyes as he recalled the look on Seraphine's face. He could not decide what she r

    Chester remained as composed as ever."Mr. Johansen, I have already contacted their director. We need to travel immediately. MarcoLite Enterprises' CEO has agreed to meet you and is open to a partnership." He hesitated. "But the scandal with Mysteria Studio—"He believed the trending news needed to be taken down. He also wanted to say that Annalise was truly despicable. He would have respected her if she had defeated Seraphine with skill. Instead, she relied on shameless tricks.Clifford scoffed. "I can secure a new partner. Do you think Seraphine can still threaten me?"Chester gave a small shake of his head but said nothing more. He had already predicted the outcome. He went off to arrange the trip.Clifford stood in the midday sunlight, the glare harsh and unforgiving. Seraphine had pushed him to the edge of fury. Once he returned from this business trip, he would speak to her properly.He pulled out his phone and checked the trending news. Some posts were attacking Seraph

    "Hmph! Ms. Lodge paid for my son's college tuition and found stable jobs for both me and my wife. She saved our entire family. So get out," the security guard snapped.Clifford turned and walked away, furious. Of course Seraphine knew how to win people over.He stormed down the steps and saw that the motorcycle parked by the curb was gone, just as he expected. He had to borrow his bodyguard's phone to call her.At that moment, Seraphine was riding home, her phone vibrating nonstop. She did not need to check the screen to know who it was. She kept her focus on the road, unmoved by the persistent buzzing.She regretted all the things she had once done for Clifford.No one could shelter someone else for a lifetime, and no one could protect another person forever.When one fell, one learned to stand up on their own.
