Chapter 12
The hotel breakfast spread was lavish, and Dashiell and Seraphina savored it with. contentment as the
gentle sunshine shone through the window, creating a peaceful and serene atmosphere.
“I’ll go to the company later. I will take you to Aroma Delight by the way,” said Dashiell as he buttered
the toast.
Seraphina took a sip of milk and shook her head, saying, “No, I don’t go there until this afternoon. And I
thought we agreed not to announce our…”
Dashiell looked up, and Seraphina swallowed the word “relationship”.
Dashiell handed Seraphina the buttered toast and withdrew his hand, saying, “Don’t worry, I won’t go
back on my promise. Only the top executive in charge of Aroma Delight knew that you were poached
from the headquarters, and it was Brayan who communicated with Aroma Delight. So no one knows
that…”
Dashiell slightly raised his eyes, and he seemed to look at Seraphina casually, but his look made her
subconsciously frightened.
“You’re my person,” Dashiell continued.
Dashiell only paused for a moment, but his words sounded particularly meaningful.
Seraphina felt her heart beat faster, exclaiming inwardly, ‘Dashiell is so good at flirting!
He had a cold face, and his words sounded normal, which made Seraphina’s heart race when she
thought about his words again!
“That’s good!” Seraphina said.
She stared at the breakfast in front of her. She finished it quickly and said, “I’m full. I should go make a
phone call.”
If Seraphina planned to leave Prosperian Company, she had to solve what happened first. At least
Emily couldn’t be involved in it.
When Seraphina picked up her phone, she found that there were more than 20 missed calls, all of
which were from Julian.
Seraphina was slightly stunned and then smiled sarcastically.
Yesterday, in order to keep her calm and not be disturbed, Seraphina muted her phone after getting
into the car. She guessed that Julian was looking for her, but she didn’t expect him to be so desperate.

Chapter 12
It seemed that Julian was really anxious yesterday.
They were with each other for so long, but Julian rarely took the initiative to call Seraphina. Even if he
did, it was mostly for work. Now things were different.
When Seraphina was about to return to the home interface, she got another call. It was Julian again.
‘Well, it’s very early now, she thought.
Looking at Julian’s name, Seraphina turned around and looked at Dashiell who was sitting there eating
breakfast calmly. Dashiell sat there elegantly, like a prince in a fairy tale, noble and unattainable.
After thinking for a while, Seraphina pressed the answer button.
After what happened last night, Seraphina’s relationship with Julian was over. Since she and Dashiell
were married, she did not need to hide anything from Dashiell.
Seraphina was open and fearless.
“Hello?” said Seraphina.
“Seraphina, where are you?” Julian’s voice was a little h oa rse because he didn’t rest well.
“What’s the matter, Mr. Brown?” Seraphina pretended not to understand what was
going on.
“Seraphina, it’s no use running away. Do you think you can escape?” Julian said.
Seraphina almost burst out laughing and asked, “Running away? Why should I run away?”
She thought, ‘I didn’t do anything illegal or unreasonable. Why would I run away?’
“Why didn’t
you come back all night if you hadn’t run away? Do you know I’ve been waiting for you all night?” After
a pause, Julian continued, “I believe there was some misunderstanding about yesterday. I won’t blame
you. You should come back and we can have a talk, okay?”
After pondering for a moment, Seraphina smiled and said, “Okay. I’ll see you in the company later.”
After hanging up the phone, Seraphina walked back to the dining table. Dashiell looked at her and
asked, “Are you leaving?”
“No hurry,” Seraphina answered and smiled. Then she sat down again and dragged her chair forward.

Chapter 12
Seraphina was in a good mood and her appetite became super-good. She continued to eat slowly and
said, “It’s not like I’m looking for him. What’s the hurry?”
How many times had Seraphina been waiting for Julian? Was it finally his turn to wait for her?
“He won’t let go of what happened yesterday,” said Dashiell.
Julian was a petty man, and he cared about every little profit. Yesterday, he was embarrassed in public,
so he would not let it go.
Moreover, Seraphina’s departure was definitely a fatal blow to his small company.
“Neither will I,” Seraphina added with a smile, looking at Dashiell.
Dashiell smiled.
Julian waited for Seraphina all day.
He didn’t even have lunch until it was past three o’clock in the afternoon, and he did not see Seraphina.
When Julian called Seraphina, she still didn’t answer it. Julian was so angry that he almost smashed
his phone.
“Julian, I told you before that you couldn’t believe in Seraphina! You just trust her too
much!” Vivian said.
At this time, Vivian leaned against the spa cious leather seat, holding a fruit knife and peeling apples.
“Look, last night was a play that she had prepared long ago. The trap was set for us. I knew she was
weird yesterday, and you said she’d be fine. Look…
“Shut up!” Julian was very upset. He wanted to make a phone call, but he thought it was useless. So
his tone was angry.
Hearing this, Vivian pursed her lips and lowered her eyes unhappily. “Why are you mad at me? I didn’t
betray you or the company. I am the only one who has always been by your side and cared about you!”
said Vivian.
Then she went over and handed Julian the peeled apple. “Here! You have to eat
something no matter how angry you are. You have to take care of yourself. If something happens to
you, what should I do…” said Vivian.
As she spoke, her big eyes were full of tears as if they would fall down in the blink of an
eye.
Looking at Vivian’s pitiful look, Julian felt sorry. He sighed and took the apple. Then he
put
his hand on her shoulder and said, “I’m not angry with you. I’m just in a bad mood.

Mon,
Chapter 12
Sorry. I know you’re caring about me. Don’t cry, honey!”
“You’re just coaxing me, but you still think about Seraphina… Vivian moved her b*dy slightly and got
closer to him, tempting him.
“Mr. Brown, I…”
The door opened and Seraphina leaned in. Seeing the scene, Seraphina smiled and said, “Well, it
seems that I’m not here at the right time. Then I…”
“Seraphina!”
Seeing Seraphina, Julian immediately let go of his hands and strode towards Seraphina for fear that
she would run away again. “Come back!” Julian shouted.
After waiting all day, Julian finally saw Seraphina. How could he let her run away again?
“Where have you been? Why didn’t you answer the phone? Do you know how worried I was? What
have you been up to?” Julian asked.
Julian grabbed Seraphina by the wrist and pulled her in, closing the door behind them.
Seraphina’s eyes widened. Julian in front of her looked anxious and said caring words as if he was
really worried about her, but what was he doing at the last minute?
Seraphina glanced at Vivian from the corner of her eye. Vivian looked sullen, but when Seraphina
turned to her, she put on a gentle smile again and said, “That’s right, Sera, you have no idea how
anxious we were. You weren’t home all night. Where have you been? How could you be working in
Aroma Delight? Did they fool you? You can’t be deceived by those people!”
