Chapter 376 You Think You Could Compete with Her? Orion's gaze flickered with a hint of disdain and indifference as he lifted his eyes to look at her.

"You were dismissed from Cross Group. You should know the reason. Dros Group won't hire someone who couldn't even pass the internship. And, to be honest, don't ever compare yourself to Seraphina, You two are worlds apart." His words were blunt, with no regard for Lucinda's pride. Her face turned pale in an instant.

Even Ken felt a twinge of pity for her.

Surprisingly, Lucinda didn't leave. She stood there, her eyes filled with a helpless, pitiful look as she clutched her hands tightly.

"But Mr. Ramóna said... Ms. Cross is too overbearing. You sent your sister away for her and your mother too to be with her. Haven't you considered the consequences at all?" Standing off to the side and already drenched in sweat, Ken trembled as he watched.

Lucinda's presence completely ruined Orion's good mood. His gaze turned cold and heavy-a chill even Kery couldn't withstand.

She was convinced of her own insight. Lucinda tried to analyze the stakes and refused to believe that a businessman who valued profit like Orion would remain unmoved. Ramona had hinted that she should show up more often around Orion and develop their relationship. Didn't that imply she was a more suitable match for Orion than Seraphina? The office fell into a brief, chilling silence.

Orion's gaze bore into her, cold and penetrating. He casually rubbed his brow with a gesture that carried a hint of arrogance and menace. Suddenly, Lucinda felt a wave of unease.

He let out a soft, mocking laugh, his eyes icy. "Do you truly believe you're deserving of comparison to Seraphina? You're not worthy." Lucinda's expression faltered. She looked up in panic, about to explain herself, but Orion didn't give her the chance.

His next words drove her straight into despair.

"There are plenty of women who want to be my wife, but I don't pick from the trash, understand?" The implication was clear-he saw her as nothing more than garbage.

No matter how thick-skinned Lucinda was, she couldn't pretend to be unaffected.

Her face drained of color, becoming as white as a sheet and tears began to fall from her eyes. Any courage she had quickly evaporated. She suddenly realized Orion knew her true background-that she was an illegitimate child.

All this time, she had disguised herself as a proper lady, but Orion saw through her facade instantly-she was nothing but a counterfeit! And to think she had dared to imagine herself as his wife? A storm of bitter ridicule filled her mind like needles piercing her skin. She bit.her lip, unable to hold it together any longer. She was just about to leave when Ken's surprised voice broke through. "Ms. Cross?" Seraphina and Aiden, realizing the awkward timing, tried to make a quiet exit, but they were a second too late. They had overheard sof what had been said, and it involved her.

Orion's demeanor changed instantly. He stood up swiftly; a smile lit up his face as he approached.

"Meeting you twice today-what a lucky day!" There was no doubt he was addressing Seraphina.

Aiden, standing beside her, covered his face in embarrassment.

Seraphina frowned. She took a step back to maintain sdistance from him.

"Aiden mentioned something urgent had happened. We need to hold a meeting."
