Tangled in His Obsession (Seraphina)

Chapter 281

Seraphina was genuinely surprised when she heard him. She paused, then asked, “How’d you find

out?”

Leandro gave her a look but didn’t answer.

Of course, he knew because of the information he got from the guys he sent to investigate Bowen.

Not only did he know Tania’s apology was because of Bowen, he also knew that Bowen had spent the

previous night with Tania.

Seraphina didn’t question how he figured it out, the reason was pretty obvious.

Tania, a snooty rich girl who looked down on everyone and everything, would only admit she was

wrong because of love, and it was a kind of love that cost her dignity.

“All guys are like that, huh? Just because they’ve got a girl, they think they can do whatever they

want?” Seraphina took a sip of water, then blurted out.

Leandro gave her a slow glance,

Seraphina seemed to realize something, she quickly looked at him and smiled, “I didn’t mean you.”

She paused briefly, then continued, “Bowen once told me not to investigate the Martin family, saying

they’re dangerous. I didn’t listen. He said he’d protect me in his own way. Do you think this is his way?”

“Maybe,” Leandro replied, quickly changing the subject, “take a look at what you want to eat.”

Seraphina looked at him, then at Valerio, and for the moment, she set aside her issues with Bowen and

focused on her meal.

This was the first time the three of them had officially gone out to eat together. Valerio seemed thrilled.

He, who usually didn’t have much of an appetite, ate more than half of what he usually did.

Seraphina stopped him, worried he might overeat.

“Are you happy?” Seraphina asked him.

Valerio nodded.

Seraphina couldn’t help but laugh, “Do you want to do this again?”

Valerio immediately nodded.

Seraphina raised an eyebrow, “Alright then.”

Valerio’s eyes sparkled as he watched Seraphina.

“When you want to do this again, let us know,” Seraphina said, “Your dad and I will take you out again.”

As soon as she finished, Leandro looked at Valerio to find his eyes a little dim, but not overly

disappointed. Instead, he seemed to be contemplating something.

Seeing him like this, Seraphina locked eyes with Leandro, then excused herself to the restroom.

Leandro quietly watched Valerio for a moment, suddenly realizing the enormous changes that

Seraphina had brought about in him. Before, if someone suggested that he speak, he was always

terrified and avoided the topic as if it was forbidden,

As for seeing a psychologist, he was extremely resistant, and things got worse after appointments.

But today, when Seraphina brought it up casually, he didn’t show much resistance. Instead, he seemed

to be seriously considering the issue.

Leandro leaned forward slightly, looked at Valerio, and asked softly, “You don’t know what to call her,

do you?”

Valerio looked up at him, his eyes widening. After a while, a helpless expression appeared on his face.

Leandro suddenly reached out and gently touched his chest.

“Whatever your heart tells you to call her, that’s what you should call her.”

Seraphina came out of the restroom and ran into Bowen who was on his way to the restroom.

They locked eyes, and although Seraphina didn’t want to talk to him, she couldn’t help herself..

She stopped and looked at Bowen, “Bowen, you really know how to pull the strings. Tania was so

pissed the other day, and now she’s beside you again.”

Bowen listened, but didn’t react much, just smiled faintly, “I have to keep myself busy somehow.”

“Does it have to be this?” Seraphina asked, “Sandra died still misunderstanding your relationship with

Tania. She hasn’t been gone that long, and you’re already back with Tania. Do you think you’re being

fair to Sandra?”

“Seraphina, I’ll take whatever you say,” Bowen said, ‘But I know I should do this.”

Seraphina understood what he meant. She paused before saying, “You want to avenge Sandra? Do

you think dealing with the Martin family is easy?”

Bowen looked down, laughed, and said slowly, “I’ve already lost the most important person, what else

do I have to fear? Time, energy. even life, I can give it all. If I can avenge her and before I see her

again, that would be great. If not, I still want to see her.”

Listening to him, Seraphina just said, “You really loved her.”

“Seraphina,” Bowen called her again, “Anyway, I’ll handle this. You and Mr. Reynolds have been

through a lot to get to where you are today, you should cherish your great relationship. Don’t take risks

Seraphina didn’t respond, just gave a faint smile and walked away.

On the way home, Seraphina noticed Valerio seemed distracted.

Usually, his full attention would be on her, but today, he was unusually quiet.

Seraphina sneaked a look at him and noticed that he was clenching his little hands tightly.

Clearly, he was focusing on himself, trying to muster up the courage.

Seraphina exchanged glances with Leandro, but didn’t intervene.

That night, as Leandro held Seraphina in his arms, she brought up the events of the day again.

“When do you think he’ll start talking?” Seraphina asked.

Leandro just said, “Someday.”

Seraphina sighed, resting her head on his chest.

“He’s too well-behaved, and too pitiful,” Seraphina said, “Leandro, you have to give him the best of

everything. Because he deserves it.”

Leandro heard her, gave her a glance, and slowly said, “I’ll give the best to not just him.”

Seraphina lifted her eyes and looked at him, ” Do you understand the meaning of ‘the best’?”

Suddenly, Leandro rolled over and pinned her underneath him.

Startled, Seraphina wanted to escape, but found no place to run.

“Alright, let’s say there’s only one ‘best’.” Leandro said, “Then I’ll give it all to you.”

Before Seraphina could reply, he bent down and kissed her.

It wasn’t until the heat of passion rose, that Leandro whispered again, “How to divide it, who to give it

to, when to give it, it’s all up to you.”

Seraphina’s forehead was pressed against his, their breath mingling. Upon hearing his words, she

couldn’t help but let out a soft sigh. Then, her breath was stolen away once again by Leandro.
