Ramona was so enraged that he was gasping for air.
“They won’t let go now. If they don’t report us to the cops, we’ll count ourselves lucky.”

He had been lectured, something he was not used to. Ramona had never experienced such disdain before.
Everyone knew that it was Orion who was behind the wheel now. He had stepped back into the shadows. Who would bother showing him any respect anymore?
As this thought crossed his mind, Ramona’s expression darkened even further.
If it had been twenty years ago, would Emeris have dared to speak to him so rudely?
Hannah’s face crumpled as she panicked, her voice trembling with fear.
“What do we do? I don’t want to get caught. We’ve already ruined the family’s reputation.”
At that moment, Arthur knocked on the door from outside and delivered the news.
“Mr. Orion has arrived.”
Hannah was frozen, shuddering in terror. “Grandpa …
The door to the study was suddenly kicked open. Orion stormed in, radiating fury. His sharp, piercing eyes and cold expression created an overwhelming, suffocating pressure.
Had he known Ramona was scheming behind his back, he would’ve taken away his power, even if it meant enduring the disgrace of being called unfilial.
What he hadn’t expected, however, was that Hannah was also involved.
And what made it worse was that he hadn’t known a thing.
A quick investigation revealed who was manipulating the blogger.
But what enraged him further was how confidently they had done it!
This situation had twisted and turned so much that Orion’s fury had reached a boiling point.
He had thought that stripping Ramona of power would be enough to give Seraphina closure.
But she hadn’t even appreciated it; instead, she had shown him what true vengeance,looked like in her own unique way.
He now knew just how vile the Droses could be.
Qrion’s eyes were filled with cold, lethal intent, like a blade sharpened to its finest edge. He was ready to teach Hannah, who had shown such a lack of foresight, lesson.
His tall, imposing figure moved closer, exuding a chilling hostility, his face as cold and unyielding as stone.
Hannah stared at him for a brief moment before overwhelming fear gripped her.

“Orion, I–I know I was wrong!”
She thought that with Ramona’s involvement, she wouldn’t get caught.
But she hadn’t expected that the blogger she had bribed would betray her.
Damn it!
She lost all control, her legs turning to jelly, and collapsed onto the floor.
Quickly, she pushed herself up to her knees, begging and pleading.

“Orion, I just wanted to help you two reconcile. I didn’t want her getting too close to Wilson. If Wilson continues to drag her down, she will eventually lose interest in him, which will give you a chance.”
Hannah desperately tried to defend herself.
Orion didn’t believe a single word. How had his sister grown up to be someone so full of lies?
Ramona, unable to watch any longer, spoke up with a bitter, cold tone.
“What are you doing? She’s your sister. Her intentions weren’t wrong. This is just a public scandal. Do you really want to drive everyone in the Droses out just because of that woman?”
The tension in the room froze, the atmosphere turning thick and cold.
Ramona sneered, his words dripping with disdain. “Why don’t you just change your name to Cross and leave with that woman? See if the Crosses will even give you a second glance once you’ve left our family!”
At this point, Ramona no longer cared about holding back hurtful words toward the grandson he had once supported.
Since Orion had already tried to pull him down, what reason did Ramona have to show him any respect?
He already had his own plans in mind.
If Orion wouldn’t listen, then it was time to find a new heir.
Orion’s dark eyes swept over the furious Ramona.
His voice was low and cold as he responded, “If you don’t mind me changing the family name to Cross, then I don’t mind either.”
For a moment, Ramona’s face turned ashen with fury.
“You want to hand the entire family’s assets away? I was blind to have chosen you all those years ago.”
Shaking with rage, Ramona stood, his cane gripped tightly in his hands. Without hesitation, he hurled it toward Orion with all his strength.
In his anger, Ramona wished nothing more than to crush this ungrateful grandson. He put every ounce of
force into the throw.
Orion didn’t flinch, his expression unreadable. His eyes were so dark, it was as though they were
hortomless

“Thud-”
The cane struck Orion’s forehead with a sickening sound, then fell to the ground.
Orion could have dodged it, but he didn’t.

Blood began to trickle from the wound on his forehead, a grim sight that made it difficult to look at.
Hannah gasped sharply, paralyzed with fear, unable to move.
