Chapter 377 - Arent you too close? (1/2)
Seraphina heard the whole conversation that Venus and Alexander Han had. The corner of her lips curled upward as she sympathized with Alex for being Venus' outlet. Well, what can she say? The girl must be itching to torment someone given with the time she had spent being David Ong's mistress.
Sensing that her private space was already being invaded by someone, she opened her one eye to see Dragon's shadow overlapping hers.
”Aren't you too close?” She asked as Dragon trying to spy on them but would rather lean his ear with Seraphina's ear than using another spare earplug.
”Close? No, there's still this centimeter space between us.” Dragon didn't retract his head and continued to lean closer to her.
”There's another piece there, go use it.” Seraphina annoyingly glared at him as she distant her head away from him. Alas, to her surprise, Dragon squinted his eyes as he pondered about something.
”Interesting...”
”What?” Seraphina raised her brows in suspicion. She highly doubts that Dragon was referring to Alexander Han and Venus's current betting.
”He's there? I mean that son of a gun Liam Jin.” Dragon's lips curled into an amused smile. The reason why he doesn't want to use the spare earplugs is that Alexander Han's voice was too loud that it covered all the side noises on its surrounding.
That very instant, Seraphina focused her hearing to the voices on the earphones but to no avail, she couldn't hear Liam's voice. Seraphina grinds her teeth as she had a miscalculation.
How could she forget? It was a charity event and it would be suspicious if David Ong would only invite tainted businessmen. He had to mix them with clean families as well so if worse comes to worst, he could just deny everything since everyone was mixed with bad and 'good' people.
”Are you sure it was him?”
”Ah? Baby, are you doubting me?” Dragon who was utterly offended by Seraphina's question asked in disbelief. Surely, by the way, he delivered her disp_l_e_a_s_u_r_e was akin to a wife being offended by her hubby regarding the messy house.
”He's gone -- this is bad.” Seraphina massaged her temple in distress. Surely, Liam Jin being there was an unforeseen scenario. The only good thing about it is, Liam Jin was there inside a room full of bad and dangerous people. Which also means he was probably a candidate that David Ong handpicked.
Dragon sat on the other executive chair and wheeled himself in front of Seraphina. If he could connect the chairs and snuggle with her, he would. Alas, there was still space for their knees and feet that gave them a 'vast' space between them.
