Kaveh glared at Orion, frustration evident in his expression. "My father sent me to talk to you, to get your advice. You know how it is-our branch of the family isn't exactly influential. We're just about partying and spending money, nothing more. Neither my father nor are on board with Ramona's plan. I've grown up under your guidance, Orion. I'm your favorite nephew You can't just throw me out of the Droses like this!" Kaveh's success in the entertainment world had only been possible because of The Droses' backing.
Deep down, he knew that without their support, he wouldn't have the funds or the influence to make anything work.
Orion raised an eyebrow, unfazed by Kaveh's outburst. It was no surprise that Kaveh's family had become more sensible over time. But it was expected.
Kaveh swallowed nervously, but Orion remained silent, making the atmosphere feel heavier by the second.
After what felt like an eternity, Orion finally spoke, his voice even and controlled. "What's in it for me?"
The question took Kaveh off guard.
"What do you mean by 'what's in it for me?" Kaveh asked, disbelieving. "I'm the one here bringing you the news, offering to side with you! Are you seriously flipping this around on me?" The words struck him with the force of a thunderclap.
Orion, dressed in his usual sharp white shirt and black pants, remained poised and imposing, his cool expression almost unreadable, with a small, amused smile tugging at the corner of his mouth.
"I didn't ask you to come. You came on your own."
One who asked for something was always weaker in Qrion's world.
Kaveh's world seemed to crumble as he turned toward Ken, who stood in the back of the room, calm as always. It became clear to him that no one could make demands of Orion, especially not with such petty offers. Kaveh hesitated, unsure of how to respond.
He had thought he could negotiate with Orion, but it was clear the latter had no intention of playing along.
Finally, Kaveh muttered, "I'm just bringing you the news. I've overheard some things about Ramona."
Ken couldn't help but clear his throat.
"Kaveh, Mr. Dros is well aware of everything concerning Ramona."
Kaveh's heart skipped a beat. It seemed Ramona had no leverage at all.
No wonder Orion wasn't concerned about his offer.
Taking a deep breath, Kaveh continued, "Ramona has his eyes on Seraphina."

Orion's body stiffened, and his brows furrowed with anger. His voice, when it came, was ice-cold. "What did you just say?"
Kaveh met his gaze, his tone almost defiant.
"Finally piqued your interest, huh? I was planning to tell Seraphina myself, but I thought you should do it."
He sighed, adding, "I overheard Ramona talking to the butler. It was about Seraphina, but they were careful. I couldn't hear everything." Orion's expression darkened, his eyes narrowing with fury.
His fists clenched tightly as his face twisted into a grimace, barely suppressing his rage.
Ramona's manipulations had gone too far. Now, he was even setting his sights on Seraphina.
It seemed like Ramona had never truly given up on her.
After a long pause, Orion spoke again, his voice slow and deliberate, "I understand. You can go now."
Kaveh hesitated. He didn't want to leave just yet. "Orion, Lila, and I... the news about us is about to break. You have to help me."
Orion's face was unreadable, but the disdain in his voice was evident. "Lila's trouble. She's nearly ruined Lucius. Stay away from her."
Orion had never thought highly of Lila.
She had advised Seraphina not to patch things up with him, urging her to follow her own path.
To hell with that!
Lila had built her career on Seraphina and Lucius' fame.
She was nothing more than a manipulative woman, in Orion's eyes.
Kaveh frowned, defending Lila. "Lucius made mistakes, and it's too late for him to regret them now. Why shouldn't I try? Everyone deserves a shot at happiness, right? We're the real deal-true love, the kind that lasts." Kaveh knew he wouldn't get a different response from Orion. With a sigh of disappointment, he turned to
leave.
If he had known this would happen, he would have never come.
Ken followed his usual protocol and escorted Kaveh out of the room. As Kaveh grumbled under his breath, he muttered, "No wonder Seraphina doesn't want to get close to him. Who could deal with that?" Ken paused and replied, "Seraphina holds a special place in Mr. Dros's heart."
It was a clear reminder that Kaveh couldn't hold a candle to Seraphina.
