Tangled in His Obsession

Chapter 147

Chapter 147

Bowen came home just to change his clothes. He quickly gave Seraphina a brief hello before headingupstairs. Sandra watched his retreating back with a stern expression.

“What happened?” Seraphina picked up on her mood. “Did you guys have a fight?”

Sandra scoffed. “He hasn’t been home for ages, how could I fight with him?”

“You sound like you’re feeling hard done by?” Seraphina asked.

Sandra shot her a look. “Let’s not talk about him. Go do your cooking thing.”

After a while, Bowen came down, all dressed. He stopped by the kitchen to greet Seraphina:“Seraphina, I’ve got things to do today. I won’t be able to hang out with you guys. Have fun with SandraWe’ll properly host you some other time”

Seraphina offered him a smile, “Alright, go do your thing.”

Bowen ruffled Sandra’s hair. “Take care of your friend. Gotta run.”

Sandra swatted his hand away and moved to stand next to Seraphina.

Bowen shrugged at Seraphina, gave a quick wave and left.

As Seraphina was learning how to wash vegetables from the Smith family’s maid, she glanced at thegloomy Sandra, “All because he’s not home?”

Sandra listened to the sound of the car driving away outside and murmured, “Actually I have a brother,but he didn’t care about me at all.”

Back when they were in high school, the Smiths parents passed away, leaving only Sandra and BowenSandra was actually quite lonely, which is probably why she and Seraphina were so close.

Seraphina thought about Bowen’s actions earlier and chuckled, “Even if he’s not around, he still caresabout you. You two seem to get along well”

Sandra heard this and her mood plunged.

Sandra had a brother who didn’t care about her, and Seraphina had a mother who didn’t love her at all,but as Seraphina said, at least she and Bowen got along well. As for Seraphina’s mother….

Sandra didn’t dare to broach the topic. She just stood there watching Seraphina learn how to cook.

You really couldn’t learn much in one afternoon and Seraphina wasn’t really concentrating on thecooking lesson, After the lesson, she took the food prepared by the Smith family’s maid and left.

After leaving the Smiths, she picked up Valerio and headed straight to the Reynolds Group.

Keen had been driven to distraction by Seraphina and was on high alert. But since she brought Valerio,he couldn’t leave the boy downstairs, so he quickly went down to bring them up.novelbin

While reporting to Leandro, he only mentioned Valerio’s arrival, not Seraphina, Leandro didn’tcomment.

So. Seraphina, strutting as if she owned the place, walked into Leandro’s office with Valerio.

Leandro was working. When they entered, he just glanced up at them.

Seraphina greeted him with a smile, then took Valerio to the guest area, unpacking the food shebrought and arranging it on the table.

Leandro was engrossed in the documents in his hand when suddenly, someone was tugging at hisarm, “It’s time to eat!”

Leandro pulled his hand back and returned to his documents.

Seraphina leaned over his desk to watch him, “When was the last time you had a meal with Valerio?He’s here today and I’ve prepared the food. Are you sure you don’t want to have lunch with him?”

Only then did Leandro slowly look up at her.

Her eyes were clear, full of concern and expectation, seemingly sincere.

But how long could she maintain this sweet and gentle persona?

Leandro put away his documents and walked over to the guest area.

Valerio had already set three pairs of cutlery. Seeing Leandro and Seraphina approaching, he clampedhis mouth shut, a barely detectable smile on his face

Leandro noticed and went over to pat his head, “Let’s eat”

Valerio nodded, keeping his eyes on Seraphina until she sat down next to him, then he started eatingwith relief.

“I learned to cook these dishes this afternoon, Seraphina said. “Although they’re not top–notch”

While she happily introduced the dishes, Leandro barely had his food. The occasional times he did, hepassed it to Valerio.

Valerio was well behaved and not picky at all. Whatever Seraphina served him, he ate all of it

Leandro watched silently, his gaze finally resting on Seraphina’s face, his expression as impassive asever.

This scene was originally what he wanted, but looking at Seraphina now, he really had no interest.

She was a woman who always wore a mask, and he was curious when she would take it off.

Seraphina caught him looking at her and immediately smiled

Leandro pulled his gaze back instantly, still as frosty as ever

After the meal, Seraphina casually tidied up the table, pretentiously reminding Leandro not to work toohard and to go home early, then she left with Valerio.

As they left Leandro’s office, Yasmina was on the phone: “What the hell is going on with you guys? Thebanquet is tomorrow night and I still haven’t received the complete guest list. If you keep up with this,Mr. Reynolds might not attend!”

Seraphina paused, waited for her to hang up, then curiously asked, “What’s up?”

“A business dinner, they want to invite Mr. Reynolds to attend and give a speech, Mr. Reynolds agreed,but they didn’t give me the full guest list, how ami supposed to arrange it?” Yasmina complained, “Soannoying”

“Dinner?” Seraphina’s eyes lit up, “does he need a partner?”

Yasmina heard this, glanced at her, and began to chuckle.

The next evening, Leandro left the office at the scheduled time, only to find Seraphina sitting inYasmina’s spot.

She was wearing a black strapless dress, form–fitting and slimming, her figure was stunning. When shesmiled, her bright eyes and perfect teeth shone and her red lips were fiery. She was truly a sight tobehold.

When she saw Leandro come out, she stood up and walked towards him, “Yasmina called in sick, soI’m filling in for her tonight. I’ll go along with whatever you need”

Leandro didn’t look at her, he just glanced at Keen.”

Keen was sweating bullets, “Yasmina is really not feeling well…

Leandro ignored him and went straight for the elevator.

Seraphina waved at Keen, then turned and chased after Leandro.
