Perhaps his gaze was too intense, and the warmth in his words made Seraphina hesitant to meet his
She bit her lip and blinked, striving to appear calm.
“Did you need something?” she asked.
eyes.
Wilson looked at her seriously. His eyes were reflecting a faint galaxy, the depths of which sparkled with brilliance.
After a few seconds, he suddenly chuckled, a charming smile playing on his lips.
“I have ulterior motives when it comes to you. Of course, I’ll find a way to see you.”
Seraphina stiffened, taken aback by Wilson’s bluntness.
For a moment she found herself at a loss for words.
Seeing her flustered expression, Wilson’s gaze flickered. He continued with a teasing tone, “Are you touched? If so, then…”
“Dean Skeldon, I’m leaving my daughter in your care. When she gets discharged, she must be full of life!”
ris’s voice rang out suddenly, drawing closer to the door of Seraphina’s hospital room.
worry. This time, Ms. Cross is fine, thanks to her boyfriend. How did you find someone with the same blood type? You won’t have to worry about her getting into scrapes anymore. With him around, nothing will happen!”
A robust yet aged voice chimed in cheerfully.
Just then, the door swung open.
The four of them exchanged glances.
Seraphina quickly regained her composure and smiled, nodding at the man beside Emeris.
“Dean Skeldon, nice to see you.”
They were old acquaintances; Derick Skeldon had treated Seraphina since she was a little girl.
Derick and Emeris showed no signs of embarrassment from overhearing the conversation–the experienced individuals knew how to navigate the awkward situation.
“Ms. Cross, your father has been warning and trying to bribe me here. You’d better take care of yourself!”
Seraphina chuckled and said, “The doctor said there’s nothing serious. In a few months, I’ll be able to walk again.”
Derick nodded in response. Emeris beamed as he moved to push Seraphina’s wheelchair.
“All right, don’t disturb her rest. You all can head out!”

“Emeris, I still have a lot of work to handle. My man will come to pick me up this afternoon. I’m sorry for troubling you over the past few days.”
Stunned, Emeris then chuckled as he patted Wilson on the shoulder,
“Look at you, being so formal. You saved Seraphina, which makes you our family’s savior. You didn’t trouble us. Your work is more important. I’ll have our chef send you meals every day until you fully
recover.”
Wilson hesitated and said, “That’s too much trouble for you.”
“Not at all. It’s only right. In the future, just drop by whenever you want; consider it your own home.”
Wilson smiled in agreement.
Seraphina rubbed her forehead, pondering how quickly Emeris’s attitude toward Wilson had shifted.
The conversation they’d just had made her feel somewhat embarrassed.
It gave off the impression that her family didn’t want to let Wilson leave, as if they were drawn to the blood that ran through his veins.
It appeared that her family had ulterior motives.
Couldn’t Emeris and Derick be more discreet in their conversation?
nately, Wilson showed no signs of discontent; otherwise, she would have wanted nothing more than
to sink into the floor in shame.
That afternoon, Emeris could no longer hold on and decided to go home and rest.
In her hospital room, Seraphina was enjoying some fruits cut by Justin. Sivir rushed in, a thick file clutched in his hands and a grim expression on his face.
Justin used a wet wipe to clean Seraphina’s hands, glancing over at Sivir with a smile.
“Looks like Sivir has caught the culprit!”
Sivir lowered his gaze sharply and handed the file to Seraphina.
“Yes, Scarface is indeed one of Blake’s men. He specializes in causing accidents at construction sites to delay progress.”
Seraphina’s expression hardened, her brows furrowing deeply.
Was Blake really so ruthless that he treated lives as nothing but a game for profit?
It dawned on Justin, He cursed, “Damn it! Who dares to target Seraphina? We can’t let this slide. Before we hand him over to the police, he needs to learn a lesson!
Sivir shot his brother a glance; his jaw tightened. His expression was complex and dark,
“I’ve looked into Scarface’s background. He was once a member of the local crime gang and served time in prison. After he got out, he became a construction worker under Blake. It’s possible that the local gang is involved in this incident.

As his words hung in the air, the room fell silent.
Dealing with Blake was one thing, but if the gang was i
