Chapter 155
Leandro was engrossed in his phone until Sandra took a seat, then he slowly looked up at her, “Hello,
Ms. Sandra”
Sandra sat across from him, her gaze steady. You actually know me, Mr. Reynolds?”
Tve heard of you for a long time. Leandro replied
Tve also heard of Mr. Reynolds for quite a while, just didn’t expect we’d officially meet today” Sandra
said, “Anything in particular you wanted to talk about, Mr. Reynolds?”
Leandro simply said, “Seraphina”
A laugh escaped Sandra, “What’s the deal between you and Seraphina? Why would you want to talk
about her with me?”
“Ms. Sandra, you’re a smart person. Why play with words with me?” Leandro replied nonchalantly
Upon hearing this, Sandra said, “Well, I might disappoint you then, Mr. Reynolds. Most of the time,
Seraphina and I share the same view. And I don’t think Seraphina is exactly a rocket scientist either. If
she were, she wouldn’t have been duped into thinking a bad guy was a good guy.”
Leandro didn’t seem to care about her comments. He calmly said, “Seems like Ms. Sandra knows
everything about her.”
“Yes, I do,” Sandra confirmed, “What’s your point? What do you want to know from me, Mr. Reynolds?”
“Everything”
Sandra shook her head slowly, “I won’t betray Seraphina”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtUpon hearing this, Leandro lowered his gaze slightly and casually said, “I just want to know her life in
recent years, would that be considered ‘betrayal, Ms. Sandra?”
A hint of change appeared on Sandra’s face, then she said, “If she hadn’t been deceived, framed, and
driven to Starhaven… Mr. Reynolds, wouldn’t you already know about her life? I’m well aware of what
you’ve done to her. And now you want me to tell you about her recent years so you can use it against
her? Dream on!”
With that, she stood up and turned to leave. But she accidentally bumped into a waiter bringing her
coffee, splashing it on her. Annoyed, she began wiping it off with a napkin.
Leandro watched her retreating figure, remaining seated, and said quietly, “I hope you have enough
guts and resources to keep refusing then.”
Although he said it calmly, Sandra sensed something. She looked back at him before leaving.
Leandro didn’t watch her leave. He sat for a while, then took out a cigarette. Just as he was about to
light it, he remembered he was in a public place and threw the unlit cigarette into a trash can. He
silently turned to look out the window, his gaze somber and silent.
Keen, sitting at a nearby table, felt a bit uneasy seeing Leandro like this.
It was a weekend, and Seraphina brought Valerio to the hospital to visit Conway. They bumped into
Lorenzo Reynolds on their way out
“Hi, Lory.” Seraphina greeted him familiarly as soon as she saw him.
Valerio just stood quietly by her side, watching him.
Lorenzo glanced at Seraphina holding Valerio’s hand, nodded slightly in greeting.
“Why didn’t I see you yesterday?” Seraphina asked.
“I was out of town, Lorenzo replied, “Got back early this morning.”
Seraphina nodded, then moved a bit closer to him, “Can you tell me how grandpa’s doing?”
Lorenzo paused slightly at her serious expression, then said, “Not so good.”
Seraphina’s eyes dimmed upon hearing this.
“Grandpa’s condition is deteriorating, especially after a few heart failures yesterday. He was barely
saved,” Lorenzo said, “He might have to stay in the hospital for a while.”
Hearing this, Seraphina fell silent, then asked, “How long will that be?”
“Could be a few months, or maybe a year, Lorenzo answered.
Seraphina nodded slowly, maintaining her composure.
“I have other patients, I should go, Lorenzo said.
“Okay,” Seraphina replied, then took Valerio and left.
When they entered Conway’s room, he seemed to be dozing off. Seeing them, he instantly perked up,
smiling at them, “Valerio, you came to see me?”
Valerio, being obedient but mute, could only stand quietly, watching Conway.
Conway smiled, ruffled his hair, and held his hand, saying with a sigh, “I guess I may never have the
chance to hear him call me in my lifetime..”
“Grandpa Seraphina called out. She didn’t like this kind of talks.
Just as Conway was about to reply, the door of the room opened, and Lacy came in.
“Mr. Conway, Ms. Bennett, Lacy greeted.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSeraphina looked at him and asked with a smile, “Didn’t Leandro say he was going to fire you?”
Atouch of embarrassment appeared on Lacy’s face. Conway said, “He thinks he can fire someone I’m
used to? I still have a lot of things that need his help.
Hearing this, Lacy walked over and whispered something to Conway
Seraphina frowned, “Grandpa, you’re in the hospital, why are you still worrying about things?”
After listening to Lacy’s report, Conway nodded in satisfaction before turning to Seraphina, “Look at
me, still trying to sort things out while I can. Do you expect me to come back from the dead to haunt
you guys after I die?”
“Grandpa Seraphina immediately put on an angry face.
Conway waved her off and she reluctantly walked over to him. Only then did he reach out to hold her
hand, Tve sorted out your mother’s issue. You don’t have to worry about it anymore”
Seraphina was taken aback that Conway was still concerned about Magdalen, her face changed
instantly. “Who told you about her?”
“You think I can’t do my own digging Conway said, “I’ve lived for over eighty years, I have plenty of
friends and contacts. How hard is it for me to get some intel? I gave your mother a call, scolded her,
tried to persuade her… She’s headstrong, but she will listen to me eventually. She’s your mother, but all
these years, you’ve been the one tolerating her, and I know it. No matter how cold–hearted she is, she
must still care about you deep down. As for Leandro, don’t be too hard on him. He’s used to doing
things his own way. If you could keep him in line, that’d be great”
Upon hearing this, Seraphina simply shook her head and tightened her grip on Conway’s hand, “I don’t
care about their issues, I only have you, and you’re the only one I’ll worry about.”
