Chapter 172
Their romp in the sheets tonight wasn’t too wild. By the end. Seraphina felt tired but still somewhat alert
Leandro was still on top of her. Panting slightly, Seraphina said, “If you’re not up for another round,
could you get off?
Leandro gave her a silent look, then finally moved off her body
Seraphina sat up, grabbed a robe to throw on, and headed for the bathroom
When she emerged from the bathroom, Leandro had also donned a robe Seeing her come out, he told
her, Tm heading to the study”
“Sure thing. Seraphina replied nonchalantly, not giving it rnuch thought as she got back in bed
Without another word, Leandro opened the door and left
Before long Seraphina fell asleep. But her sleep was restless, and she woke up in a daze, the room still
pitch–dark
In the bed she was alone Seraphina picked up her phone to check the time It was four in the morning
Was Leandro still working?
Seraphina was a bit puzzled but didn’t think too much of it. She was thirsty, so she got up, opened the
door, and went to find some water
As she passed the study, she noticed there was no light seeping under the door. In other words, the
study was completely dark
Was Leandro not there, or had he fallen asleep in the study?
Seraphina thought back carefully and realized that he hadn’t shared the bed with her last night
She went downstairs to get some water. As she passed the study again on her way back up, she was a
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtbit curious and thought about checking the study. but decided against it and went straight back to her
bedroom.
Her sleep wasn’t very peaceful. Around six in the morning, she was startled awake by the sound of the
door opening
Opening her eyes, she saw Leandro walk in wearing his robe.
He was still wearing last night’s robe, which meant he hadn’t been out. But he hadn’t come back to the
room all night, and the study was dark, so he must have been sleeping in the study or some other room
This realization piqued Seraphinas curiosity, so she stayed in bed watching him
As usual, Leandro was calm and collected He glanced at her, “Awake so early?”
“I didn’t sleep well, Seraphina replied. “I was mentally prepared to sleep with someone else, but the
bed was empty I didn’t know if something was in there, and the more I thought about it, the more
scared I got..”
Leandro gave her a look and replied with only one sentence, “After I finished work, I slept in the study”
Seraphina sat up suddenly, staring at him, “If that’s the case, then we should sleep in separate rooms.
It doesn’t really affect anything
“Do you really think so?” Leandro countered.
“Isn’t it?” Seraphina looked at him, “Anyway you slept in the study, and it doesn’t seem like Grandpa or
the staff noticed”
Without another word, Leandro turned around and went into the bathroom.
Seraphina glanced outside. It was still dark, and the weather was cold. She didn’t want to talk anymore
and just went back to sleep
When she woke up again, Leandro was already gone.
Just as she was getting up, a maid came to clean the room. Seraphina went into the bathroom to clean
up, not paying it any mind
As she came downstairs after her shower, she overheard Conway talking to the maid, “Why did I see
Leandro coming out of the study this morning? Doesn’t he share a room with Sera?”
Upon hearing this, Seraphina felt a bit annoyed with Leandro.
She was about to go down and explain to Conway when she heard the maid reply. “How could that be?
I’ve been cleaning their room these past few days. and I even change the sheets myself. They get
along very well, and you don’t need to worry”
The maid’s response was laced with suggestive laughter, the implication was clear
Relieved by the answer, Conway simply nodded.
Upstairs, Seraphina, who was about to go down for breakfast, felt a bit awkward upon hearing this. She
decided to go back upstairs for a bit and wait for the topic to pass before coming down again
Roughly an hour later Seraphina came back downstairs Conway still looked at her with satisfaction and
relief. He had already had his breakfast and was waiting at the dining table to accompany Seraphina,
constantly urging her to eat and take care of her health.
“Grandpa, how can I eat all this? Seraptana looked at the mountain of food in front of her “Are you
treating me like a breeding sow?
“Whats wrong with being a sow? Conway said, “Haven’t you heard that sows have many piglets? It’s a
good thing! I like it!
His words were clearly suggestive, and Seraphina rolled her eyes. I don’t like it
“All right” Conway said. “You don’t have to have as many as a sow I’ll be happy with two or three
children.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBelpre Seraphina could respond, a cold laugh came from outside, “Grandpa Reynolds, how do you
know she won’t have as many as a sow? Maybe she’ll turn around and give you four or five kids!”
Seraphina slowly looked up to see Ferne walking in from the door
Ferne was tall and slim, the pampered young lady of the Reynolds family. She was naturally aloof, and
when her face darkened, her aura became even more intimidating.
Ferne walked in, her gaze landing directly on Seraphina, and gave a cold laugh.
“Ferne” Conway called her, “What are you talking about?”
Ferne glanced at Conway, then laughed, “Nothing, just joking with Seraphina.”
Seeing this, Seraphina gave a faint srnile, stood up, and said, “I need to use the bathroom.”
Seeing her get up and leave, Ferne gave Conway a slight smile, then said, “I’ll go too.”
Seraphina strolled into the bathroom to wash her hands, and the door wasn’t completely shut. Ferne
barged right in, yanked out some papers from her bag, and chucked them onto the sink right in front of
Seraphina Seraphina, you sure do have a colorful past, don’t you?”
Seraphina had long sensed the mockery in Ferne’s voice. Now, as she picked up those papers, she
was more certain about it.
The papers appeared to be a layout from some media outlet, but the subject matter was all about her.
The headline was pretty shocking. “Unwed mother! Leandro’s future wife Seraphina’s messy life
exposed!”
Seraphina clutched the manuscript, starting to read it carefully from beginning to end.
But Ferne just stood there with her arms crossed, smirking coldly at her. “Seraphina, you’re something
else, aren’t you? Knocked up and had a kid after leaving the Reynolds family, huh? Don’t you know
what kind of person you are? Are you still trying to play innocent in front of Grandpa Reynolds?
Planning on giving him a heart attack or what?”
