Chapter 394 I Will Fix It Myself
Seraphina's gaze was indifferent as she declared, "My brother is my brother, and you are you."
With those words, she crushed the other girl's pride underfoot.
Her eyes turned red with unshed tears.
Just then, Justin walked in from outside.
"What's going on?" he asked, sensing the tension.
Without hesitation, that girl flung herself into his arms, her voice trembling as she complained.
"It was an accident! I didn't mean to drop her stuff. She's ... your sister's friend."
Justin furrowed his brow. Sarah, crouched on the ground with shattered pieces scattered around her, caught his attention. His expression shifted as he realized what she held.
Everyone who knew Sarah understood that this was the only keepsake left to her by her late grandmother, making it deeply significant.
"Just pay her back. It's only a glass ball; it can't be worth much," that girl demanded dismissively.
"Shut up!" Justin snapped, his face darkening.
He stepped closer and cast a glance at Seraphina, but she turned her head away, clearly uninterested in defending him.
For a moment, Justin was silent, then he crouched down beside Sarah.
He reached out and gently placed his hand on her hair.
Sarah's shoulders trembled slightly; she was crying.
Justin froze, unsure of what to say. Sarah had always been strong, but her grandmother had been her only weakness. "Sarah..." he started.
But Sarah didn't look up. Taking a deep breath, she suddenly stood, her eyes clear and resolute.
"I have to go. I'll see you later."
With that, she turned and walked away, cradling the broken pieces in her hands.
As Justin moved to follow her, Seraphina blocked his path.
"Justin, if you're looking for a girlfriend, it's one thing to ignore looks, but how can you overlook character? That girl breaks someone's belongings and doesn't even bother to apologize. Do she really think that's impressive?" That girl shrank back, taken aback by Seraphina's bluntness.

She tried to explain, but Justin's expression remained impassive.

"I'll have someone take you home. You're being replaced in this role. Katherine will take your place."
Katherine was her rival, and this was akin to cutting off her path forward.
Without another word, Justin walked out, leaving that girl scrambling to follow him. She was anxious to explain, appease, and apologize to him. Seraphina rolled her eyes. "Serves her right!"
She dialed Sarah's number, and Sarah answered.
"Seraphina, don't worry, I'm fine. I'm at the office now. Let's get together next time."
Seraphina relayed Justin's actions, hoping to ease Sarah's mind. Although Sarah's breathing was still heavy, her tone lightened considerably.
"I know your brother isn't blind, so I feel better."
After hanging up, Sarah received a text from Justin.
"I'm really sorry, Sarah. I'll fix it myself."
She chose not to respond.
With nothing else to do, Seraphina settled down to watch Justin act in the scene.
She barely noticed someone had joined her, holding a small fan and gently waving it to create a breeze.
Raising an eyebrow, she asked, "Henry, what are you doing?"
Did he fan her in the cold winter air?
A hint of embarrassment crossed Henry's face as he squatted beside her chair.
"I was worried you might be too warm or too cold."
Seraphina was annoyed.
He held out a plate of fruit and said, "I just cut this, Ms. Dros. Would you like to try some?"
Seraphina pushed it away gently and said, "I'm not hungry, thank you."
Henry didn't seem to mind; he smiled at her with a glint of admiration in his eyes.
"I honestly didn't expect Justin to give me such an important role-being the second male lead!"
Seraphina raised an eyebrow, surprised.
"Second male lead?"

reminiscent of Orion's, sporting a delicate smile that felt a bit off-putting.
Seraphina shifted her gaze and laughed. "Perhaps it's because of your acting skills."
"I promise I won't embarrass you."

Henry clasped his hands together earnestly, then eagerly offered her a piece of fruit with a fork. "Ah..."
Seraphina raised an eyebrow in confusion.
His persistence made it hard for her to maintain her refusal.
Eventually, she gave in and took a small bite before quickly stopping.
Henry was overjoyed. There wasn't a chair around, so he squatted beside her like an obedient puppy, sharing jokes and gossip from the industry. Seraphina chuckled half-heartedly, her thoughts lingering on Sarah's shattered pendant.
That glass pendant, designed personally by Sarah's grandmother, was the only memento she had. Now, it was gone, and Sarah must be heartbroken.
Just then, she heard someone in the distance respectfully call out, "Mr. Dros, what a surprise to see you here."
