Tangled in His Obsession

Chapter 166

Chapter 166

Seraphina came down the stairs and walked into the pile of jewelry. She randomly picked up one of thediamond necklaces and put it on her neck, then looked at Leandro, “Like it?”

Leandro removed some of the jewelry boxes she had put on the sofa and sat down

Seraphina thought Leandro might ignore her, but Leandro looked at her and slowly said, “Nice.”

Though he looked indifferent, his eyes were firm and serious.

Seraphina laughed. Leandro was a man who didn’t need to lie. If he said it looked nice, then it definitelywas.

“Cool Since you said it’s nice. I’ll help you put them away,” Seraphina said, “You can give it to yourfuture wife”

Leandro glanced at her, his eyes had already become deep. “My wife doesn’t need someone else’sstuff”

“How can it be someone else’s? I don’t want these things” Seraphina continued while tidying up, “We’regetting married for our own reasons. We should live in peace. I don’t need gifts like these, and I don’tuse them. So when your real wife receives them, they’ll still be new.”

As she said this, she suddenly thought of something and turned to Leandro, “Your wife doesn’t needsomeone else’s stuff, she wouldn’t refuse you too, would she?”

As soon as the words fell, Leandro suddenly went upset.

Seraphina laughed again, “Nah, nah, we’re just a couple in name, not actually, so you’re not someoneelse’s.”

After saying this, she threw the jewelry box in her hand and rolled her eyes, “I’m tired, I’ll clean uptomorrow. Going to bed, night!”

She got up and hurried upstairs, leaving Leandro with only her figure.

It was as if she had been waiting for him to come back just to say these words to him.

Leandro lit a cigarette for himself, raised his head, and his view was still filled with these fine pieces ofjewelry.

She had said it for him to hear, and he had heard it all.

So what?

Leandro slowly exhaled a ring of smoke, his face expressionless.

Seraphina hoped that after their recent encounter, Tiffany would ease off. However, the very next day, aplethora of wedding dresses, gowns, designers. and their sketches were promptly delivered.

Sitting on the sofa, arms crossed, Seraphina observed as the staff and designers showcased eachdress. Yet, she showed no interest in trying any on

Just as Tiffany was contemplating a solution, the apartment doorbell unexpectedly rang

Tiffany hurriedly went to open the door. She was surprised to see the man outside and quickly greetedhim respectfully. “Conway”

At home, the lazy Seraphina jumped up from the sofa as soon as she heard this name and ran to thedoor just in time to see Magdalen walking in with Conway.

“Conway, how come you’re out of the hospital?” Seraphina asked with a frown, “Did the doctordischarge you?”

Conway glanced at her, “I didn’t leave the hospital, I just came out for a walk.”

Seraphina turned to Magdalen. Magdalen looked at her, apparently not willing to explain anything toher.

Seraphina had no choice but to help Conway in first.

Seeing the room full of dresses, Conway couldn’t help but laugh, “It seems we came at a good time.We can see what Sera looks like in wedding dresses and gowns Magdalen, do you want to see?”

Magdalen glanced at Seraphina again, then smiled, “Of course I do.”

Seraphina, who was not interested at first, suddenly brightened her eyes, completely different from justnow, and said to Conway, “Since you want to see, I’ll try on each one for you”

Conway just laughed. “Good, go change!”

So Seraphina changed one dress after another, and kept asking Conway, “Whichever one you thinklooks good, I’ll wear that.”

“You’re really beautiful, Conway said, “To me, you look good in anything. Ask your mom instead!”

Hearing this, Seraphina then looked at Magdalen and laughed. “True, mom has the best taste. Momcan pick the wedding dress and gowns for me”

Magdalen replied indifferently. “Okay”

“Great” Seraphina answered, then got up to change into another dress.

Tiffany had been assisting Seraphina with her outfit transitions. Since Conway’s entrance on the scene,Seraphina had displayed a vivacious energy. However, upon her return to the makeshift dressing roomdownstairs after their latest interaction, a stark contrast was evident. It was as if her vitality had beendrained away. She no longer engaged actively with the wardrobe changes. Instead, she stood in frontof the mirror, her gaze distant, seemingly lost in thought.

“Ms. Bennett?” Tiffany couldn’t help but call her, “Are you tired? Need a break?”

Seraphina quickly came back to her senses, looked at the mirror again, and smiled, “No, I don’t.”

Seeing Seraphina in the reflection, dressed in her wedding attire, she felt an unexpected wave ofmelancholy wash over her. The source of this emotion eluded her, and she was left puzzled by itspresence.

Tiffany, noticing Seraphina’s contemplative state, handed her another dress to try. As Seraphinachanged, Tiffany automatically snapped a picture for

As Seraphina made her way out of the dressing room, Tiffany’s phone buzzed with a message.Yasmina was requesting pictures of Seraphina’s fitting session. Without hesitation, Tiffany sent therecent snapshots her way.

At the Reynolds Group office, Yasmina eagerly showed Keen the newly received images. Take a look,”she exclaimed, “These are the most recent pictures of Ms. Bennett in her wedding gowns!”

Keen was up to his eyeballs prepping for a meeting with Leandro at another company, he literally didn’thave a second to deal with Yasmina. So, Yasmina amused herself for a bit, then said, “If I print thesephotos out and slap ‘em on Mr. Reynolds‘ desk, do you reckon he’d give me a raise?”

Before she could finish her sentence, the door to Leandro’s office swung open and Leandro himselfwalked out, overhearing Yasmina’s words.

“What photos?” Leandro asked.

Yasmina quickly got up and handed her phone to Leandro, “They’re snaps of Ms. Bennett trying onwedding dresses. Ms. Bennett looks drop–dead gorgeous, she rocks every dress she tries on.”

Leandro looked down at the photos on the phone. On the screen, her eyes, red lips, casually pulled uphair, and the white wedding dress made her even

more stunning.

Suddenly, a rush of old memories swarmed Leandro’s mind.
