Tangled in His Obsession (Seraphina)

Chapter 309

The moment Seraphina laid eyes on Andrea, she was a tad taken aback.

Previously, she had gleaned some information about Andrea from Tania, and she subconsciously

imagined Andrea to look like Tania. Plus, Herman had mentioned Andrea’s deep feelings for Leandro,

so she had pictured Andrea as another pampered rich girl, just like Tania.

But the Andrea she was looking at now was nothing like that. She was a lady of elegance.

Andrea’s voice was a bit chilly, but overall she seemed very gentle.

After glancing at Leandro, Andrea quickly extended her hand to Seraphina, “Hello Mrs. Reynolds.”

“Hello Ms. Martin.” Seraphina also threw a glance at Leandro, “I’ve heard about you.”

Upon hearing this, Andrea just shot her a faint smile, “If you’ve heard anything less than flattering about

me, I hope you don’t mind.”

Seraphina was surprised by Andrea’s candor, and she appreciated it. So she quickly laughed, “Even if I

did before, I wouldn’t now.”

Leandro watched as Seraphina responded, but she just casually let go of his hand and walked towards

Andrea, “It’s quite packed tonight. I haven’t been back in Sunburst City for long, and there are a lot of

people I don’t recognize. Would you mind showing me around?”

Andrea was a bit surprised. After looking at Leandro, she nodded, “Sure.”

Leandro didn’t get another glance from Seraphina as she followed Andrea towards the main table of

the banquet.

The Smith family had tragically lost their parents early, and Sandra had recently passed away, so the

so-called main table was filled with the Martin family.

Seraphina stepped forward and greeted everyone in the Martin family.

Meanwhile, Leandro was swamped with people striking up conversations, leaving him no chance to

find Seraphina.

It seemed like Seraphina didn’t care whether he was around or not. Every time Leandro looked her

way, she was always the brightest star in the crowd, striking up conversations with a beaming smile.

Leandro had a hunch why she was acting like this, but he didn’t know how to feel about it.

After Seraphina had met everyone in the Martin family, she still stuck around with Andrea, chit-chatting

about trivial matters.

That was until Peterson Miller suddenly appeared in front of her.

“Sera.” He called her.

She looked around and noticed that he was alone. She laughed, “What brings you here all by

yourself?”

Peterson gave a self-deprecating laugh, “My engagement with Edith Whitman has been called off.”

Seraphina raised an eyebrow at the news but didn’t seem too surprised.

Ever since Edith leaked Betty’s scandal to the press, which enraged Leandro, the Whitman family had

been under the thumb of the Reynolds Group. Seraphina didn’t follow the aftermath closely, but she

was aware that the Whitman family was barely holding on.

“You’re such an opportunist.” Seraphina didn’t mince her words.

Peterson didn’t respond to her comment. He seemed to accept it as fact, then changed the subject, “I

heard about Sandra…”

Seraphina immediately shook her head, “Let’s not talk about that. It’s not appropriate on someone

else’s engagement day.”

So Peterson asked instead, “Are you doing okay?”

Seraphina just shrugged, “As you can see.”

Peterson recalled the scene he had witnessed earlier –

In truth, he was sitting far away from Leandro and Seraphina, so he couldn’t see them clearly. But he

did catch glimpses of their interactions.

He saw Seraphina naturally leaning on Leandro, and Leandro calmly brushing petals off her dress.

Their intimate gestures seemed natural and unforced, a real reaction.

Peterson slowly nodded and smiled.

“That’s good. His yoice was a bit low, “I’m happy for you.”

He didn’t stick around chatting with Seraphina for long before he was called away by someone else.

Andrea overheard their conversation and remarked, “You and your ex seem to get along pretty well.”

“Just like regular friends.” Seraphina glanced at her and smiled, “Just like you and Leandro.”

Hearing this, Andrea looked at Seraphina and said, “I’ve only met Mr. Reynolds a few times. Most of

them were coincidences or introductions by others. We never officially dated or anything.”

“I didn’t mean it like that.” Seraphina laughed and said, “You don’t have to be nervous.”

Andrea paused before saying, “I did want to pursue something with him at one point. But as it turns out,

if it’s not meant to be yours, it never will be.”

After saying those words, she looked at Seraphina.

Seraphina also looked at her. After a moment of silence, she reached out and gently squeezed

Andrea’s hand.

“You’ll find your true love.” Seraphina said.

Hearing this, Andrea smiled faintly, “I hope so.”

Leandro and Seraphina didn’t stay long at the engagement party.

After having made her presence known to everyone, Seraphina quickly left the venue.

But when she left, it was just her.

The driver was originally waiting in the car for her and Leandro. He was instructed to drive the car to

the hotel entrance, but only saw Seraphina climbing into the car by herself. It took him by surprise.

“Go home,” Seraphina commanded as soon as she got in the car.

The driver immediately asked, “Mrs. Reynolds, where’s Mr. Reynolds?”

“Who knows where he’s off having a blast,” Seraphina replied. “Let’s not bother him, let’s go.”

The driver could feel something was off – had they had a fight?

He couldn’t ignore Seraphina’s command, but he also didn’t have the guts to leave Leandro behind.

Just as he was torn, he saw Leandro coming over with two members of the Martin family. He breathed

a sigh of relief.

with

Seraphina saw it too, but she just snorted lightly and turned her face away.

As soon as Leandro got in the car, he raised the car’s partition, creating a private space.

Seraphina glanced at him and sneered, “Leaving so soon? Don’t you plan to stay a bit longer and have

more interaction with Andrea?”

She seemed to be angry, and Leandro knew very well that Andrea was not the reason for her anger.

“Even though Andrea hasn’t disclosed much about you, I can feel that she still has feelings for you.”

Seraphina continued, “Are you really so cold-blooded? Oh no, you are not cold-blooded at all, in fact,

you are very emotional… Before there was a Magnolia, now there’s an Andrea. It’s funny, I’m not even

sure if I should be thanking them. If it weren’t for Magnolia’s predicament, if it weren’t for Andrea’s

eyes, Mr. Reynolds might have forgotten about me!”
