Chapter 819 Scheming (2) Blowing Up
The sedan arrived at The Everhart Mansion.
Dashiell looked at the sleeping Seraphina beside him.
He wanted to wake her, but hesitated.
His eyes fell on Seraphina's wrist resting on her abdomen, so delicate that he felt it might break with a squeeze.
His throat moved slightly.
His emotions were still somewhat stirred.
He had noticed Seraphina's efforts during this time.
He often heard that Seraphina worked so hard that she often forgot to eat and sleep.
He wondered if he had been pushing her too hard.
But if she didn't grow quickly, she would never be able to stand on her own.
Everhart Bank could never truly be handed over to her.
Dashiell couldn't help but reach out.
His long fingers touched Seraphina's wrist.
Just touched.
Seraphina seemed to be suddenly startled.
She abruptly opened her eyes.
At the same time, she slapped Dashiell's hand away.
A crisp sound.
An awkward sound, just like that.
Seraphina was half-asleep at that time.
She had originally pretended to sleep to avoid the awkwardness of being alone, but she didn't expect to actually fall asleep.
She didn't know if it was because she was too tired from a day's work, but sometimes she could fall asleep as soon as she closed her eyes.
But in fact, every time she fell asleep quickly, she would suddenly wake up.
She always felt that her nerves were a bit off during this time.
At this moment, her mind seemed to be in a fog. She saw Dashiell and quickly explained, "I don't think you're dirty!"
It's not that I think you're dirty and don't want you to touch me.
After saying it.
Seraphina felt terrible.
What was she saying?
Dashiell's fingers curled into a fist.
The coldness on his face was evident.
Seraphina really wanted to die at that moment.
Why did she say what she was really thinking?
She said, "I think I just fell asleep. I don't even know what I said, I must have been talking in my sleep."
She tried to cover up the situation.
Dashiell looked ahead, his face cold, clearly not believing Seraphina's excuse.
Seraphina really wanted to die at that moment. She pretended to be calm and said, "I don't know why, but looking at you makes me want to sleep."
Seraphina originally wanted to explain why she fell asleep.
But as soon as she said it, she realized it sounded wrong.
She saw Dashiell turn his head to look at her, his eyes staring at her.
Seraphina was so scared her face turned pale, and she quickly explained, "It's not what you think, I don't mean I want to sleep with you..."
Dashiell's eyes seemed to tighten even more.
Seraphina felt that no matter what she said, she couldn't explain it.
She felt that saying anything at this moment would only make it worse.
So she simply unbuckled her seatbelt, opened the car door, and left.
She ran away as if escaping.
If she couldn't provoke him, she could at least avoid him, right?
Dashiell just watched Seraphina's fleeing back.
The smile he had been holding back finally appeared on his lips.
Seraphina, that fool, when will she be a little smarter!
He stepped on the gas and drove away.
Back home, Seraphina buried herself under the covers.
So embarrassing.
She always felt like a fool in front of Dashiell and Magnolia.
It wasn't like this before!
She tossed and turned on the bed, feeling all sorts of frustration.
Frustrated as she was, Seraphina suddenly sat up in bed.
She inexplicably started to feel a rush of excitement.
Thinking about having sex with Dashiell.
Just the thought of it made her heart race and her desire surge.
She went to the bathroom and took a cold shower.
The cold made her shiver, almost jumping up on the spot.
Back in bed, it seemed she still couldn't extinguish the burning desire inside her.
Damn it!
She had only experienced it once, was it necessary to be so desperate?
Seraphina got out of bed and grabbed her laptop.
Maybe watching some porn would satisfy her and make her stop thinking about it!
The next day.
In the morning.
Cecilia received a message from Dashiell.
Dashiell sent many photos, pictures of Lyra being interviewed.
In the photos, she was dressed elegantly, giving off an impression of depth and grace. It matched her current status as a high-ranking member of the Lockhart Group.
The interview was also posted online for a while.
Lyra received a lot of praise.
Lyra felt very pleased with the interview Dashiell had arranged for her.
An interview with the most famous magazine in the Yakurosean Empire, just the news of it raised her status. Not everyone could receive their invitation unless they were truly outstanding in their field.
She cooperated very actively and said many high-sounding words.
After the interview.
Lyra posted a News Feed on Twitter, saying that she hoped to spread more positive energy to society.
The underlying message was that everyone should learn from her.
Despite her excellent background, she still worked so hard.
After posting on Twitter, she received a lot of praise.
The internet was full of compliments.
Lyra looked at her phone, thoroughly enjoying the feeling of being admired!
For a long time, Juniper's sudden rise had overshadowed her.
She was finally reclaiming her glory.
Immersed in her excitement, the office door was suddenly knocked open.
Lyra, in a rare good mood, spoke to Rose in a gentle tone, "Rose, what's the matter?"
"Ms. Monroe, something bad has happened. Someone is on the rooftop of the Lockhart Group building, threatening to jump!" Rose said anxiously.
Lyra jumped up from her chair, her face visibly changing.
"Who's threatening to jump?" Lyra asked.
"It's Primrose from the planning department," Rose quickly replied.
Lyra's face turned even darker.
Primrose Wells was the woman she had scolded yesterday.
Primrose had insulted her behind her back and compared her to Cecilia! She had told her to resign yesterday, why hadn't she left yet?
"What should we do now? Many people in the company are heading up there. I'm afraid it will soon become a big issue," Rose said worriedly.
Lyra became agitated.
She had worked hard to build her reputation, and she couldn't let Primrose ruin it.
She gritted her teeth and said, "Let's go and see!"
"Yes," Rose quickly followed.
She smiled to herself.
Cecilia was indeed clever.
She knew how to make her fall from grace at her proudest moment!
Rose followed Lyra to the rooftop.
There were many people up there.
Security had already arrived.
Primrose stood outside the rooftop, very emotional, not allowing anyone to approach.
Lyra saw many people taking pictures and quickly shouted, "No one is allowed to take pictures, put your phones down!"
The first thing she thought of was not how to save the person.
The first thing she thought of was how not to be exposed!
