Chapter 433 Are You Two a Couple?

As the last notes of the music faded, the smile in Seraphina's eyes slowly disappeared.

It felt like ages since she had been this happy; those past moments of joy now seemed so distant.

Ever since she had developed feelings for Orion, her life had been devoid of such simple pleasures.

Orion was like a spell; he had bewitched her completely.

The man beside her withdrew his hands from the piano gracefully at the right time. Seraphina glanced over; his long, slender fingers, with their well-defined knuckles, looked beautiful. He was truly gifted, which was why he played the piano so beautifully. "Ms. Cross, I hope my playing wasn't too terrible," Wilson said with a gentle self-deprecation.

Seraphina raised an eyebrow and asked, "How could it be? Your playing is far more sophisticated than mine, Mr. Rockwell. I should be the one feeling embarrassed."

After all, it was unthinkable to perform a duet without prior practice.

That kind of harmony required deep mutual understanding.

Wilson sighed softly and said, "I've always loved this piece. It has a way of relieving confusion; the simpler it is, the more joy it brings."

Seraphina nodded in agreement. "That's true, but... let's leave now. I feel like everyone is staring at us."

She cast a quick glance around. Initially, no one had paid attention to them, but the music had drawn a crowd.

Now that the performance was over, people lingered.

With a larger audience, the chance of being recognized increased.

Wilson noticed this too and immediately stood up, grabbing Seraphina's bag from beside her. "Let's go."

As they turned, a man who appeared to be a manager and five bodyguards stood waiting with a smile. The two were taken aback.

"Hello! I'm the general manager of this mall. It's a pleasure to hear such enchanting music," he said, his eyes bright. Seraphina lowered her hat's brim and nodded slightly.

"Thank you."

"Are you two a couple?" he asked.

Both Seraphina and Wilson frozen at his remarks. Clearly, this man didn't recognize them.

Neither confirmed nor denied it.

played together-who would believe you're not?"

Seraphina was speechless, her expression unreadable.

Wilson cleared his throat and asked, "Is there something we can help you with?"

"Congratulations! You've won a prize!"

The manager made an announcement, his tone filled with excitement.

The two remained unfazed, looking at him coolly.

The manager, undeterred by their lack of enthusiasm, continued cheerfully, "You two are our lucky couple of the day! Our mall's final event is today, and you performed together on this million-dollar piano without a single mistake. You surpassed all our expectations!" He assessed them, noting their extraordinary demeanor. They didn't look like average customers, especially with the watch on the man's wrist-worth enough to buy a luxury apartment in the city center. And although the woman dressed simply, her bag was a limited edition worth tens of thousands.

How could they let such good clients slip away?

Seraphina raised an eyebrow, pausing for a moment.

Naturally drawn to gifts, she found herself intrigued by the prize. However, since she and Wilson were not in a romantic relationship, accepting it felt inappropriate.

Just as she was about to decline, the manager proudly added, "Our mall is part of the Dros Group. We have a solid reputation, and our prizes are substantial-no gimmicks here, and we mean every word!"

Upon hearing that it was the Dros Group and that the prize was substantial, Seraphina stiffened slightly, a smirk creeping onto her lips.

Heh...

Well, if it's being offered, why not take advantage of it?

In an instant, she changed her mind and decided to seize the opportunity.

"Alright, what's the prize?" She asked; her interest piqued.

After all, it was Dros Group footing the bill-what did she have to lose?

The manager beamed and explained, "As of this moment, your entire spending today is on us!"

He looked at them expectantly. "Exciting, isn't it?"

The manager had observed that neither of them carried any shopping bags, nor did they have anything. from the mall.

This offer was purely psychological-an attempt to make them feel regretful and encourage them to return and spend in the future.

What a perfect marketing strategy!

Wilson smiled lightly, his expression blank, unaffected by the news.

Meanwhile, Seraphina frowned in surprise and asked, "Everything?"

"Exactly! But it seems you haven't had the chance to shop yet."

The manager grinned, intending to offer her a small memento.

Before he could finish, Seraphina reached into her pocket and pulled out a long receipt, handing it to him.

"Here."

The manager's expression changed slightly upon seeing it.

The thickness, the length... it was clear this wasn't just a casual trip to the mall.
