Tangled in His Obsession (Seraphina)

Chapter 214

She kept stressing that she put him first, but it didn’t seem to make Leandro a happy camper.

Leandro just sat there for a while, watching her Suddenly, he put down what he was doing, scooped

Seraphina up in his arms and stood up.

“Hey!” Seraphina squeaked, clinging onto him. “What are you doing? Isn’t this what you wanted me to

choose?”

Leandro didn’t respond. He carried her back to the bedroom and laid her on the bed.

Sure, he had wanted her to choose this, but when she actually did, he didn’t feel content. He felt

uneasy i

y instead.

This sense of unease, although slight, got his bones and he couldn’t shake it off.

The only thing he could do was to keep reaffirming that she was his.

So Leandro kept reaffirming for a long time, until Seraphina was worn out and didn’t want to indulge

him any longer. She turned her head away and fell into a deep sleep, as if she were dead to the

world…

When she woke up, it was already the next morning

Leandro was already gone by the time Seraphina opened her eyes. But when she went downstairs,

she found Valerio Reynolds still at home.

She had been too caught up in her work lately to pay him any attention Seeing him at home, she was

taken aback, “Why are you still home? Don’t you have school today?”

Valerio was holding a cup of milk, looking at Seraphina expectantly.

Conway Reynolds, sitting next to him, explained, “His school has an end-of term event today, so he can

go in a bit later.”

“Oh, I see,” Seraphina remembered. She reached out and pinched Valerio’s face, Time flies, huh?

You’ll be on Christmas break soon. Are you excited?”

At her words, Valerio suddenly jumped down from his high chair, ran to the couch and picked

something up. He put it in front of Seraphina.

“What’s this?” she asked, bending down to take a look.

Valerio eagerly opened the document for her.

Upor closer inspection, it was winter study tour information. It detailed the benefits and importance of

study tours and recommended several routes.

Seraphina lightly patted Valerios head, “You little rascal, already thinking about playing before the

holidays even start!”

Valerio looked serious and kept his gaze on Seraphina Then, he pointed emphatically at the word

‘study tour” on the document, as if to stress that he wasn’t going to play, he was going to study.

“Oh, come on,” Seraphina gave him a look, “You’re too young to learn anything from a trip. Besides, if

you want to go abroad, your dad could take you anytime. Do you really need a study tour?”

Valerio looked at Seraphina with disappointment in his eyes. Seraphina took another look at him, then

asked, “Do you really want to go?”

At this question, hope flickered in Valerio’s eyes again. He reached out to hold onto Seraphina’s sleeve

He made it clear that he wanted to go with her

Seraphina hesitated for a moment.

Seeing this, Conway interjected, “Since Christmas and Thanksgiving Day are just around the corner,

and the art exhibition here has already had its successful opening, there’s nothing important keeping

you busy. Why don’t you take him out?”

“The itinerary for this plan lasts more than half a month,” said Seraphina, “I have other things to do.”

“What things?” Conway asked.

Seraphina paused a little, and before she could answer, someone walked in through the door. She

looked up to see Keen.

Keen greeted Conway first, then walked over to Seraphina and put a folder in front of her

“What’s this?” she asked.

“It’s an analysis of the main styles and contents of the major news media in Sunburst City, Keen

explained, “It also includes some of their internal relations. With this information, you should be able to

make a decision easier.”

Seraphina took the folder and found that it was indeed detailed information on the major news media.

Some even included secret internal information, all in the folder in front of her.

“You’re quite the efficient assistant,” she complimented, “You managed to put together such a

comprehensive document in just a few hours. Leandro should promate you”

Keen coughed lightly and stepped back.

Conway seemed to understand something and asked, “You’re planning to work?”

Seraphina nodded, Tve rested long enough. It’s time to get back to work, or my skills might get rusty”

“I agree that you should have your own career, Conway frowned slightly. “But you shouldn’t do

dangerous frontline work like before. You have a family now You can’t be as reckless as you used to be

Seraphina didn’t respond to that, she just raised her eyebrows slightly.

Keen heard this and duly stepped forward and said, “There are also some general weekly magazine

resources in there. They are highly rated and considered socially responsible media. The work would

be relatively stable and relaxed.”

Seraphina turned to look at him, “Did your boss tell you to say that?”

Keen cleared his throat again, “Of course not.”

But having been with Leandro for so many years, he could tell what he was thinking even if he didn’t

say it out loud-

When Leandro asked him to prepare a list at the last minute yesterday, he didn’t sound too happy.

When he found out that the list was for Seraphina, Keen immediately realized that it was about

choosing a workplace for her. Considering Seraphina’s personality, resuming her journalist duties might

cause some issues. How could Leandro stand by and let that happen?

To dodge any future bullets, Keen took the liberty to slip in a few weekly magazines at the back.

If Seraphina were to choose these weekly papers, that would be a relatively satisfying outcome for

Leandro. If Seraphina’s settled and Leandro’s happy.

he could be less stressed in the future.

“Working for a weekly is a solid move, chimed in Conway “It’s more of a steady gig compared to other

media outlets. I’ve got an old buddy working there. I’d be less antsy if you took a job there”

Seraphina, propping up her chin, was flipping through the materials. No response yet.

She was in the middle of her perusal when Valerio caught her eye again.

Valerio was right by her side the whole time, clutching some study tour materials, eyes filled with puppy

dog eyes.

“Since Leandro pulled some strings with these media companies, pushing back your start date

shouldn’t be a biggie,” said Conway. “You’re not living paycheck to paycheck, so why not hold off on the

decision and take Valerio out for some fun first?”

Seraphina had to let out a heavy sigh, then reached out to take Valerio’s materials, “Spill it, where do

you want to go?”

Valerio instantly broke into a grin, flipping to a certain page and handing it to Seraphina.

It was the study tour route of Starhaven’s East Coast, including Moonhaven and Velvetwood.

She looked at Valerio quizzically, “Is this your jam or is it your dad’s idea?”
