Billionaire’s Sweet Wife

Chapter 39

“Seraphina, what do you plan to do?” Emily shook her hand and asked, “Now they’re tarnishing your

reputation, and I even saw some of your college classmates coming forward to slander you. I really

don’t understand. We were all classmates; even if not friends, they shouldn’t be spreading lies like

this!”

“It’s not entirely spreading lies. After all, back then, I wasn’t close to them. Few people knew about my

relationship with Julian,” Seraphina said calmly.

She had to be objective about this. Besides, if they were really picking a formal timing, it was only after

they were already done with college and after she received her first award when Julian earnestly

confessed to her. They truly started their relationship then.

Later, after her “accident”, he stood by her side. Perhaps out of gratitude, or maybe feelings had

developed, or for some other reason, her relationship with Julian quickly intensified. She willingly

became the woman standing behind him, immersing herself in the lab day and night, focusing only on

him and the fragrances, disregarding everything else.

Back then, she was driven by confusion, coupled with a sense of failure; she had no confidence in

herself. She didn’t delve deeper into it. Now, looking back with a calm. mind, it seemed like every step

was a pitfall, every move a trap.

“I see…” Emily furrowed her brows, lightly biting the small spoon. “So, there were no

were there no other common friends?”

Seraphina remained silent, gently shaking her head.

“Even if there were, there’s no need to involve others, especially since this matter is becoming more

and more distorted.”

“So, you’re just letting them throw dirt on your name with no way to defend yourself?” Emily felt

indignant on Seraphina’s behalf.

Emily thought, “This is too infuriating!

‘Being falsely accused and yet unable to clear her name-how frustrating!’

“Actually, don’t you think the current direction has deviated a bit?” Sipping her coffee. lightly, Seraphina

remained calm. “Between me, them, and Prosperian Company, the biggest issue at the moment should

be the copyright ownership of ‘First Love.’ As for the relationship between Julian and me, it’s entirely

private, and there’s no need for others to meddle. Why did Julian choose this moment to expose this?

Is it just to defend Vivian?”

Furrowing her brows, Emily thought seriously for a while and then slammed the table. “I know! They

want to divert everyone’s attention with gossip, so they won’t focus on the original copyright issue.”

“No!” Seraphina laughed.

Her eyes looked outside; the sunshine was bright, and the weather was perfect. She had been

immersed in the lab for a long time, and it had been ages since she noticed such favorable weather or

even

d attention to the changes in the weather.

“This creates a sensory chain reaction. The reason they’re smearing me like this is to instill a fixed

impression in everyone’s mind-I am a third party interfering in someone else’s relationship, someone

who likes to sn atch things from others. Because I envy. Vivian and I fall short in every aspect

Emily was stunned for a moment and uttered, “Malicious!”

“Just some underhanded tricks that can’t see the light of day.” Withdrawing her gaze, Seraphina smiled

lightly. “Those are all irrelevant. As long as I win this lawsuit, legitimately clearing my name, everything

else is just a minor issue.”

Originally, Emily thought the situation was quite tricky, but hearing Seraphina’s talk made it seem so

simple. However, Emily still didn’t understand how she intended to proceed.

“But the evidence…”

“The reason why evidence is called evidence is that it objectively exists. Julian thought that by taking

notes and all the data, he took away all the evidence. But the most crucial part is right here!” She

pointed to her own head and smiled. “He can’t take that away.”

After meeting with Emily, Seraphina had originally planned to go straight home, but unexpectedly, she

received a call from Mia.

She didn’t have Mia’s number, so she was momentarily stunned upon hearing the voice, only realizing

it was Mia after a while.

“The assessments for the second and third rounds are ready. Are you prepared?” Mia asked

straightforwardly.

Seraphina thought for a moment. “When is it?”

“Aren’t you in a hurry? Now, today. Can you make it?” Mia’s tone carried a hint of provocation.

Seraphina was not afraid of provocation. Facing a challenge head-on wasn’t a big deal; the scariest

thing was a knife in the back.

“Sure, I’ll go to the company right away. I’ll be there in 20 minutes,” Glancing at the time, Seraphina

responded.

She had asked about the timing only to avoid a clash with the court hearing next week, but she didn’t

expect Mia to be in such a hurry.

Nonetheless, this was a good thing as it was better to resolve it quickly. Regardless of who or how

many people there were, Seraphina wouldn’t back down in terms of strength.

Mia sent her an address, instructing her not to return to the company and to go directly to this address.

Mia didn’t provide details but simply mentioned that she would understand once she arrived.

Looking at the address and feeling it was somewhat remote, Seraphina thought for a moment and

directly forwarded the location to Dashiell.

At this moment, Dashiell was in a meeting. His phone screen lit up for a moment, and he glimpsed the

name on it. His brow raised slightly, picking up his phone to check and quickly replied: [What’s up?] Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

“Do you know this address?” Seraphina didn’t know he was in a meeting and sent a voice

message.

Seeing it was a voice message, Dashiell glanced at the people waiting for him to continue the meeting,

tapped his pen on the table, and looked at the deputy CEO beside him. “Please continue.” Then, he

stood up, heading straight out of the meeting

room.

He went into the empty office next door before playing the message. Her crisp voice came through, and

it sounded like she was outside.

Dashiell opened the interface for the address she sent, sliding two fingers on the screen. The page

quickly zoomed in, providing a clearer and more detailed view.

After a brief thought, he figured it out. He sent a voice message, “This seems to be one of the

company’s experimental bases. Are you going there?”

Seraphina thought, ‘As expected of Dashiell! I hadn’t said anything, and he had already guessed what I

was up to.

‘It was indeed correct to ask him. But why did Mia want me to go to the company’s experimental base

at this time? Didn’t she still disapprove of me and refuse to let me into the project department? Could it

be that Mia changed her mind and is now.

allowing me to participate?’

“Okay, got it! Thank you!” She cheerfully expressed her gratitude and then hailed a cab.

Seraphina thought, ‘Since the address is fine, there is no harm in going to see what’s going on.
