Inherit Billions

Chapter 499 Wilson's Explanation.

In the living room.

After a moment of deep thought, Seraphina immediately called Sivir, who was still working overtime.

"Sivir, make sure to keep an eye on the stock trends. Don't let the public opinion cause any fluctuations."

This was their top priority.

Emeris, watching his daughter with a hint of helplessness, couldn't help but wonder how she could still focus on making money in a situation like this.

On the other end, Sivir said something that made Seraphina's tense expression relax a little. Following that, she hung up the phone.

"Fortunately, the stock showed only a slight dip. There won't be any significant losses. As long as the media storm calms down by tomorrow, we'll be fine."

"Calm down? Who knows who's been manipulating the situation behind the scenes? Even with Michael and me working together to suppress it, those media platforms still had the nerve to refuse to retract their stories." Justin's voice was cool and heavy.

He had a hunch. The only entity capable of opposing the Cross Group in the media was likely the Dros Group.

However, turning Seraphina into the target of the public? That didn't seem like something that man would do.

That was the sole reason he hadn't broached the subject with Seraphina.

Just then, Benjamin hurriedly entered the room.

"Ms. Seraphina, Mr. Rockwell is here."

As soon as Wilson arrived, the expressions of everyone present shifted noticeably.

Emeris let out a cold snort. He still harbored a bellyful of resentment against this man for dragging his daughter into the mess.

Yet, when he recalled Wilson had saved Seraphina's life not long ago, it didn't feel right to just kick him

out. B

Besides, there was a chance that Wilson was a victim in all of this.

Justin beckoned to him and said, "He's probably here to explain everything. Let him in."

He glanced at Emeris.

"Dad, he did save Seraphina's life. Even if you're angry, try to hold back."

Emeris shot him a look but settled himself on the couch with a calm demeanor.

"I know."

Justin chuckled, while Seraphina maintained a serene expression.

She had already accepted the situation after receiving assurances that the Cross Group's stock wouldn't suffer significantly. After all, she had experienced online criticism before.

She didn't particularly care what image she held in the minds of the public.

When Wilson walked in, he was immediately met with the stern gazes of the Crosses men.

Only Seraphina greeted him with a soft smile.

"Looks like it's raining outside, Mr. Rockwell. You're drenched. Benjamin, please fetch a dry towel."

The butler promptly brought a fresh towel.

Wilson took it, but instead of drying himself, his gaze lingered on Seraphina, filled with a complex mix of darkness and regret.

Wilson was overwhelmed with guilt.

He hesitated and was unsure of where to begin.

Wilson feared she might believe the rumors circulating online. Worse still, he feared she wouldn't bother to ask if they were true-because she simply didn't care.

A few seconds of silence later, Justin's laughter broke the tension.

"Mr. Rockwell, it's been a busy day for you, hasn't it?"

Wilson snapped out of his daze, maintaining his usual calm and polite smile.

However, when he turned to face Emeris, there was a new weight to his expression, a mix of seriousness and remorse.

"I truly apologize for all the trouble my issues have caused Seraphina and your company. I've already taken steps to resolve the matter. By tomorrow morning, no one will be mentioning this incident again."

He spoke with absolute confidence, as if he had everything under control.

Emeris' expression softened slightly as he raised an eyebrow.

"Mr. Rockwell, we're all on the same side. We don't believe those rumors about you. Thankfully, Seraphina is tough and doesn't let these things get to her. How can Seraphina cope when everyone is criticizing her online? Wilson's gaze flickered toward Seraphina. His usually calm face was shadowed by a touch of heaviness.

"Yes, the one I owe the most is Seraphina. I will issue a public statement to clear her name. This has indeed been a harsh lesson."

Seraphina paused briefly, then smiled at him.

"That wasn't the priority. You were clearly the target of today's media frenzy Do you know who's behind

Clearly, someone was targeting Wilson. Who had he offended in this country?

Wilson's face shifted through several emotions before he hesitated for a fraction of a second.

Finally, with a calm voice, he said, "Dros Group is stirring up trouble."

His words landed like a bombshell.

Everyone present was momentarily stunned.
