Chapter 171
Seraphina blinked, looking at her calmly.
Sandra locked eyes with her for a moment, finally withdrew her hand, but immediately turned and
headed out of the store.
Seraphina put down the clothes in her hand, smiled at the cashier, then turned and chased after
Sandra.
In the busiest commercial area of the city, Sandra was wandering aimlessly until Seraphina reached
out and led her into a restaurant.
It wasn’t mealtime, so there weren’t many customers in the restaurant. Seraphina picked a seat by the
window, which was pretty vacant, and then sat down with Sandra
After ordering two drinks, Seraphina looked at her again, “So, aren’t you going to spill the beans?”
Sandra lowered her head in silence for a while, then slowly said, “I don’t know how to tell you…
“When did this start?” Seraphina asked.
Sandra slowly exhaled, finally deciding to say, “After Mom and Dad passed away, he told me he’s not
my real brother_”
Hearing this, Seraphina let out a sigh of relief, calmly watching her, waiting for her to continue.
Though Sandra had never thought of telling others many things, once she started, it didn’t seem so
hard.
When Bowen told her that he was not her real brother, she was dumbstruck. Her first thought was her
parents had just died, and now her brother was also going to leave her.
Despite her reluctance to believe it, Bowen was able to convince her of the truth when he presented a
DNA test report.
“Mom and Dad had been married for over ten years without children, so they adopted me.” Bowen said
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtto her, “I came to this family when I was seven, and to my surprise, you were born the next year.”
Looking at the report, Sandra finally had to accept the fact, but she still found it unbelievable, “But all
this time, Mom and Dad treated us the same.”
“Exactly, in their eyes, I was their own son.” Bowen patted her head, “I’m grateful to them, so I’ll take
good care of you as long as you still consider me your brother.”
“Of course!” Sandra hugged him tightly, looking up at him, “You are my brother, forever!”
Bowen looked at her, smiling, his eyes sparkling.
But once you knew some things, it was hard to keep things as they were compared to when you didn’t
know.
Later, whenever Sandra was close to him, she would unconsciously remember that they didn’t share a
bloodline. As she grew up, she knew there should be some boundaries between men and women, so
she became more and more unnatural when facing Bowen.
But no one expected that this unnaturalness would gradually turn into another feeling….
“Did you fall for him first?” Seraphina asked.
Sandra slowly nodded.
Seraphina then asked, “When did he respond to your feelings?”
“He.” Sandra seemed at a loss for words, biting her lip lightly. After a while, she finally spoke again, “I
always feel that he doesn’t really like me.”
Seraphina couldn’t help but frown, “Why do you say that?”
“I was the first one to realize my feelings, so I started avoiding him.” Sandra said, “Only after I started
avoiding him did he start getting close to me…. Sera, I always feel that he accepted me because he
didn’t want to let down our parents‘ expectations, but in reality, his heart might not be with me…”
“So, are you still unsure about this relationship up till now?” Seraphina asked.
Sandra nodded.
“Then end it.” Seraphina said, “Tell him you want to break up, cut ties.”
Sandra looked at her in surprise.
Seraphina just smiled.
In the evening. Seraphina and Sandra parted ways. On the way home, she saw another familiar face.
Yasmina was walking down the street with a man, both of them laughing sweetly.
Seraphina took a glance and couldn’t help but chuckle.
Even though winter was approaching, it didn’t affect the prosperity of this city.
For her, seeing a friend’s happiness was also a kind of satisfaction.
As for the rest, forget it.
When Seraphina got home, she found that Leandro had already finished work and was sitting on the
couch in the living room
Thinking of Yasmina she had just seen on the street, she understood. If Leandro, the boss, didn’t knock
off, she, the secretary, wouldn’t be able to finish work so early either.
But lately, Leandro had been finishing work so early every day. Compared to before, wasn’t he a bit
idle?
Chapter 12.1
Seeing Seraphina walk in, Leandro, on the couch, extended his arms. Seraphina looked at him, walked
over, and sat beside him, asking. “What’s the gossip?
Conway answered, “Leandro said he’d chosen Herman to be the best man. How about you? Found
your maid of honor yet?”
Seraphina smiled faintly. “Anyone would do. How about Ferne!”
Hearing this, Conway frowned, “Ferne’s temper was not a good fit…
Leandro looked at Seraphina’s profile and said slowly, “How about Sandra? Isn’t she your best friend?”
Hearing this, Seraphina couldn’t help but give Leandro a wary look, then said, “She’s not in a good
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmmood lately. It’s not suitable”
“Being in a bad mood, she should participate in such a happy event even more.” Conway said, “Since
she’s your best friend, of course, she should be your maid of honor. It’s a once–in–a–lifetime thing!”
Seraphina just laughed, “All right, you call the shots.”
In the evening, after Conway went to bed, Seraphina returned to her room.
Leandro had just finished his shower and walked out of the bathroom. Seeing him, Seraphina
straightforwardly said, “Mr. Reynolds, maybe it’s because you’re not good at acting, so I want to remind
you that our act doesn’t need to be so realistic. This wedding is just a means to an end, so I don’t want
to drag my good friend into it.”
“You’re right, I’m not good at acting” Leandro nonchalantly tossed aside the towel he was using to wipe
himself, turning to look at her. That’s why I’ve got no plans to put on a show with you!
At this, Seraphina chuckled.
She wasn’t surprised at all by Leandro’s words.
In fact, ever since she deceived him with her strategies at Moonhaven, he had tried all sorts of ways to
draw her out. He had not hesitated to rescue her when she was kidnapped, his reaction after finding
out about Betty, his going along with the flow and moving back to Reynolds Manor to live with her…
Leandro’s thoughts were as clear as day.
She was well aware of all this, but she didn’t care.
All she hoped for was that in this relationship, no more unrelated people would be dragged in, like
Sandra.
But now, it seemed like that was inevitable.
“All right then.” Seraphina smiled. “I don’t mind, as long as you’re happy.”
Leandro reached out, gently cupping her face, and slowly said, “Good, then try to do more things that
make me happy.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Leandro bent down and kissed her lips.
