Chapter 47

Author: Andrea North
Ralph was stunned by the pressure emanating from Elliott. He hung his head and said meekly, "I understand, sir."

Only then did Elliott curl his lips in mild satisfaction and turn to head to the elevator. Just the sight of his back gave off a powerful, commanding presence. Even Ralph, who'd been by his side since childhood, couldn't withstand his wrath.

Ralph sighed in relief as soon as Elliott turned away. He'd been terrified. He didn't dare make a sound as he cautiously hurried after the latter.

Elliott stopped after a few steps and asked, "How's the situation with Clifford?"

Even Ralph was scornful of Clifford's shameless, brainless behavior. He'd already taken action. He said, "The plan is already in motion, sir."

Elliott nodded. "Good."

Lorraine dropped Seraphine off outside her apartment building. The latter got out with the box of cherries Lorraine had given her and started heading to her block.

She remembered the two men behind her the night before—she knew they had be

    Seraphine said, "Oh, by the way, I just signed a game character design deal that made me a ton of money, Lorraine. How about we take a trip together next spring?"It was a promise she had made with Lorraine, and she was thrilled to be able to fulfill it now.Lorraine immediately perked up. "I'm so down for it! You've owed me this trip for five years! I mean, we were supposed to go before we even graduated from university, but you were stuck taking care of that deadbeat Clifford instead. You and I can finally go on that trip now!"Seraphine exclaimed, "Yep! And for this new deal, I've decided to work with your side for the models. You see, those people back in S.P. Group have given their approval as well, acknowledging your company's esteemed professionalism."Lorraine's excitement surged when she heard that. She immediately jumped to her feet, threw her arms around Seraphine, and planted a kiss on her cheek. She then shook Seraphine excitedly, exclaiming, "You truly are the best

  • Karma Is My Name   Chapter 99

    Upon seeing Lorraine's disbelief, Seraphine let out an exasperated laugh. "I might be the kind who gets swept up in love, but I'm not a complete fool, Ms. Gosling. Clifford's responsible for my mother's death. And for that reason alone, I could never like him again. "I had treated him well because I had truly wanted to build a life together with him. If I had known that his heart belonged to another, I would have never gotten involved with him. He's an unfaithful jerk, and if he loved Clarissa so much, he should've just gone to her. Why string me along?"Seraphine's indignation mounted as she talked, biting into the lobster meat with obvious pleasure. "Oh, right, Lorraine. The restaurant recently came up with a baked pear with honey and cinnamon dish that's excellent for soothing coughs. I'll have the kitchen prepare one for you."Lorraine nodded, saying, "That sounds good to me! You see, my throat's been bothering me for the last couple of days."Seraphine took out her phone and

  • Karma Is My Name   Chapter 98

    Upon hearing what Jason said, Clifford was profoundly shocked. He then suddenly recalled Seraphine's previous remarks."Jeriton Grand offers great food and a top-notch ambiance, Clifford. You see, my mother has reserved a private room there for your use. "You're still starting out and don't have much disposable income, so feel free to use that VIP room for important clients. You'll definitely be able to make a good impression in that setting."Clifford couldn't help but wonder if Andrea was the one who owned the shares, not Seraphine. Had Seraphine owned them all along? He was profoundly shaken by that thought. He then thought of the private room they had used today, booked by Jason, and then his former VIP room, provided by Seraphine—the one where even Matthew had to treat him with utter deference—and everything suddenly made so much sense. He now realized that Matthew's deference had stemmed solely from Seraphine's connection, a deference that had, in turn, earned him respect

    Seraphine flashed a dismissive smile at Jason, exclaiming, "I'm sending you off—far, far away! You're hereby permanently barred from this establishment, Jason! You have been harassing other female patrons. Jeriton Grand has already received more than one complaint about you. "You either keep that damn libido of yours under control, or you might as well just chop it off and toss it. You ought to stop parading like you're in heat and disgrace your family!"Jason's eyes snapped wide, locking his gaze on Seraphine in disbelief. He couldn't fathom how she had come by this information. He was also truly baffled as to why they were the ones being thrown out of the establishment.Clifford was utterly fixated on Seraphine's radiant smile, which he found cute, audacious, and utterly out of reach at the moment. Clarissa was utterly mortified. She felt even more infuriated by the fact that she didn't know how Seraphine had gotten so much power.Though her face was drained of all color, Chel

  • Karma Is My Name   Chapter 96

    Upon hearing what Seraphine said, Chelsea was momentarily stunned, rooted to the spot.Seraphine calmly observed Chelsea's deathly pale expression, feeling completely unfazed. She then recalled how she had humbled herself and gone to great lengths to assist Chelsea back then.Chelsea was truly in agony right then, enveloped by a palpable sense of sorrow and hopelessness. Her fingers trembled slightly as she desperately tried to hold back her emotional collapse, yet the fear churning within her was impossible to conceal. She had been counting on that postgraduate recommendation to at least get her a job at Stephen's company. Having lost her postgraduate recommendation and achieved nothing in fashion design, her future looked bleak. She knew that a strong academic background was a prerequisite for securing a desirable match, even if she were to marry for alliance.She then snarled, "How could you be so cruel, Seraphine? How could you just ruin my future—"Seraphine sharply cut he

  • Karma Is My Name   Chapter 95

    Seraphine smiled faintly, fixing her gaze on Chelsea. "I couldn't help but wonder where that self-pitying attitude of yours even came from, Chelsea. I mean, I once saw your weeping, fragile self and took you for a simple, innocent young woman deserving of patience and understanding. "I never realized you were so utterly nasty underneath it all, though. You actually want me to grovel and apologize to you, huh? Your arrogance is truly boundless!"She then yanked Chelsea's hair and struck her hard across the face."Ugh…" Chelsea's teeth slammed against her inner cheek, the sudden burst of blood in her mouth turning her pain into something unbearable.Seraphine dropped her handbag to the floor and loosened her grip on Chelsea's hair. She then landed a solid punch right on Chelsea's nose.Chelsea screamed, her face looking like a bloody mess as she stumbled backward in a sorry state.Seraphine executed everything with seamless precision and striking efficiency. It all happened so fas
