Tangled in His Obsession (Seraphina)

Chapter 237

After hearing what Seraphina had to say, Terrell looked at her earnestly, “What exactly are you trying to

say?”

Seraphina shrugged and smirked. “If you get what I’m saying, you ll understand. If you don’t, I can’t

explain it any better.”

As they walked out together, Leandro’s car was indeed parked at the curb.

Seeing them come out, Keen leaned into the car to say something. The window in the back rolled down

swiftly, revealing Leandro.

Upon seeing this. Terrell stepped forward and greeted, “Mr. Reynolds, sorry to keep you waiting. I’ll get

going now.”

Leandro gave a slight nod.

Only then did Terrell turn to leave. Seraphina, however, remained by the car, watching Terrell’s

retreating figure for a long while before she finally looked

away

“Seen enough?” Leandro glanced at her before asking

Seraphina looked away from him, her eyes landing on the stoic man inside the car. She shrugged

slightly Just as she was about to get into the car, she noticed a group of people emerging from the

concert hall across the street.

This street, being Sunburst City’s artistic hotspot, was a familiar scene to Seraphina who had seen

many artists over time. However, as she bent down to get into the car, she noticed Keen looking at the

group, seemingly lost in thought.

This piqued Seraphina’s curiosity. She paused her action of getting into the car and looked over at the

group again.

Among the group, a woman in a dark green coat who stood tall and slender with long, smooth hair and

honey-colored skin that glowed, was particularly eye-catching. Her beauty and charisma were

undeniable.

A commercial vehicle was parked at the entrance of the concert hall and someone was holding the

door open, inviting the woman to board.

Before she got into the car, the woman glanced over in their direction. It seemed as if her eyes met

Keen’s and she paused for a moment before getting into the car.

Seraphinas action of getting into the car had been halted for a while. She straightened up and poked

Keen, “Do you know her? Who is she?”

Keen snapped back to reality, a fleeting unnatural expression crossing his face, “No…. I don’t know

her.”

Seraphina looked at him and just smiled.

Oh, what an honest guy.

By the time she got into the car, the commercial vehicle had passed by her and gradually disappeared

into the night.

Seraphina’s gaze fell back onto Keen who quickly avoided her eyes again

She turned to look at Leandro.

The man beside her always carried a cold expression as if nothing ever concerned him. He only said

one thing, “Drive”

Seraphina didn’t say much either. Once her momentary curiosity passed, all she cared about was the

document in her bag.

Back at Reynolds Manor, Seraphina immediately claimed Leandro’s study to start working.

According to the documents she had, the man who had briefly interacted with Keeley by the vending

machine at the hospital was named Maddox, a 45-year-old professor in the physics department at

Sunburst University. He was an intellectual and an elite in society, with outstanding achievements in

teaching and research

Such a person didn’t seem like someone who would have any connection with a high school dropout

like Keeley.

But life is full of surprises. Sometimes, the impossible happens.

Sometimes, two seemingly unrelated people have a chance to establish some sort of connection.

Seraphina only went through the documents once when the study door was suddenly pushed open

from the outside.

She looked up to see Leandro, fresh out of the shower, wearing only a black bathrobe.

“Do you need the study?” Seraphina asked, raising her eyebrows.

“No.” Leandro responded.

No?

Seraphina looked at him again.

Leandro was usually dressed neatly when he was working in the study. This wasn’t his usual look when

he was about to work.

If he wasn’t here to work.. his intentions were clear.

Seraphina got up and walked over to him, smiling. “I’ve got a lot of documents to go through. If it’s not

urgent, could I have some quiet time to work Tonight?” She reached out and stroked his bathrobe

collar, “I’ve been at Starhaven for half a month and I’ve fallen behind on a lot of stuff. As a paid

employee, I need to do my job well, right?”

She made a good point and even brought up their good times at Starhaven Seraphina thought Leandro

wouldn’t reject her proposal.

You

“You didn’t rest on the plane and went straight to the office when we got back. You must be tired… As

she spoke, she subtly pushed Leandro towards the door, “You should go to bed early I won’t disturb

you.”

Leandro was actually pushed out of the study by her Seraphina thought she had successfully secured

some time for herself tonight, but then she heard

”

Leandrbs

b say, “You have ten minutes.”

Seraphina was startled and looked up at him.

Leandro calmly looked back at her, his eyes revealing anticipation,

Seraphina scoffed, “You think you can just give me time? I don’t need it now!”

She reached up and hooked his neck, “Now I’m giving you time. One hour. You better satisfy me within

that time!”

Seeing her provocative demeanor, Leandro scooped her up in his arms and headed into the bedroom.

Leandro seemed a bit off tonight.

Seraphina noticed it clearly.

She was always cooperative in bed, and they had established a kind of understanding over time. But

tonight, that understanding seemed to falter-

Usually they were evenly matched, but tonight, Seraphina was constantly overpowered.

So… was he somehow triggered?

Seraphina began to recall the events of the day-

On the plane?

Their fight back to Sunburst City was smooth sailing.

At work?

Leandro never brought work stress home, let alone vented it out in bed

Because he knew she met Keeley? He knew she was working on the case, and he even approved it.

He shouldn’t be pissed about that.

Terrell?

She started working with Terrell since the Balch Lawson case. He wouldn’t be jealous about that, right?

Seraphina was clueless. Suddenly, a woman she saw when leaving the gallery today popped into her

mind.

Keen was slightly taken aback when he saw the woman, and the woman looked surprised too Clearly,

they knew each other.

But when she asked Keen, he instantly denied it. He was obviously lying

But why would he lie?

Suddenly, Seraphina turned her gaze to the man next to her

Did that woman have anything to do with him?

But even a stunner like Georgina couldn’t catch his eye. How could a man who lacked security so

much that he couldn’t even sleep peacefully next to her, possibly have anything going on with another

woman?

That was a question worth pondering.

As Seraphina was deep in thought, Leandro suddenly pinched her chin, “Daydreaming?”

Busted. She didn’t bother to cover it up and just hummed lightly. “You’re just not good enough-

Before she could finish her sentence, Leandro lowered his head and kissed her passionately.
