Tangled in His Obsession (Seraphina)

Chapter 350

Leandro went through a whole lot of trouble to get Gloria back to her room, but she was still a mess.

She wouldn’t stop complaining and was throwing fits, repeating the same things over and over again..

Leandro was used to it, so after calming Gloria down for a while, he got someone to stay with her and then went

downstairs.

Downstairs, Karan just stepped out of, the kitchen. Seeing Leandro, he asked immediately, “I heard your parents

are at it again?”

Leandro plopped down on the couch and said nonchalantly, “They’ve been fighting a lot recently?”

“Hardly,” Karan sighed, sitting down too, “Your dad is hardly ever home, no chance for them to fight all the time.”

Hearing this, Leandro frowned slightly, then said, “I thought my mom had been stabilizing?”

“Yeah, Karan sighed, “But since Magdalen passed away, your dad has been a mess. He’s been playing her favorite

songs, watching her favorite movies… Seeing all this, how could your mom not be upset?”

Leandro stayed silent after hearing this, not saying anything further.

Bruce’s obsession with Magdalen was probably due to the fact that he never had her, so he couldn’t let go.

But she was dead, cutting off all his longing, that’s why he couldn’t let go.

And Gloria’s obsession was even harder to calm.

She had lost to many women in her life, and now she was losing to a dead woman, a battle she could never win.

Their broken marriage was beyond repair, but she still clung to it.

All the advice and comfort were like wasted efforts, ineffective.

So as an outsider, even her own son Leandro couldn’t help her find relief.

“We’re really powerless,” Karan sighed, “We can only hope that your mom will have an epiphany one day and let it

go.”

Leandro lowered his eyes, not responding.

After a moment of silence, Karan looked at him again and said, “I heard you were wasting money around last night,

six million?”

Leandro just responded with a nonchalant “yeah”.

“So Sera must be very happy, right?” Karan looked at him, “No wonder you look so refreshed today. If she’s happy,

of course you’re happy.”

Hearing this, Leandro just gave a small smile.

“Well, you’ve been taking care of everyone for so many years. Now that she’s helping you with Valerio and the old

man, and making you happy, you should just stick with her,” Karan finished, glancing at him, “Just try to keep a low

profile, like last night. If your mom sees it, she’ll be upset again.”

Gloria was still unstable, so Leandro stayed to have dinner with her before leaving.

When he got back to Reynolds Manor, the yard was buzzing.

In the hot summer, a few more loungers were added to the yard, and an outdoor projector was specially installed

today, playing a movie.

Conway, Seraphina, Valerio, and the nanny were all there, but only the nanny was watching the movie.

Conway was trimming a potted plant, while Seraphina and Valerio were fighting over a box of ice cream.

When Leandro approached, Seraphina successfully grabbed the ice cream and while eating, scolded Valerio, “You

naughty little boy, you don’t have any gentlemanly manners, how can you fight with a girl for food, how will you get

along with other girls in the future?”

Valerio, spoon in hand, sat sulking.

Conway looked up and finally couldn’t help saying, “Obviously you finished yours and are still trying to take his. And

you’re making it a matter of manners! Do you think that’s right?”

“Why wouldn’t it be?” Seraphina rolled her eyes, then pointed at Valerio, “You’ve changed! You used to be so nice

to me! You used to give me the chocolates-little girls gave you! Now you’re even fighting me for an ice cream, men

really can’t be trusted-”

As soon as she finished, she saw Leandro and the ice cream slid down her throat, making her cough violently.

Conway glanced at her and shrugged, “See, karma, right?”

Seraphina couldn’t argue, but just reached out for help.

The nanny immediately got up to pour her a glass of water. Leandro walked over, took the water, went to

Seraphina’s side, and while giving her the water, patted her back to help her breathe.

After a great effort, Seraphina finally recovered, feeling very weak.

What kind of family is it, both adults and children are against me, Seraphina complained angrily, “You’re all

Reynolds, only I’m not, right? What an old-fashioned family.

As Seraphina spoke, she sneakily pinched Leandro.

But the man was so sturdy that her pinching seemed to have no effect.

“Where did you learn this biting back thing!” Conway sighed.

Leandro noticed her action, looked at her long-sleeved pants, and then said, “You’re… looking for an opportunity for

revenge?”

“You have the nerve to say!” Seraphina gritted her teeth, “Leandro, you and your family keep bullying me!”

At this moment, although she seemed very agitated, Leandro’s annoyance was swept away.

Suddenly, he reached out and hugged her, kissing her lightly.

Seraphina didn’t expect him to suddenly do this and was stunned for a moment. Valerio took the opportunity to

take back his ice cream and ran away. “Valerio-”

Suddenly, the yard was lively again.

Leandro sat in the chair, watching Seraphina and Valerio chasing each other, and couldn’t help but laugh.

The night breeze blew gently, the sound of insects gradually disappeared, and the hot summer night suddenly

became incredibly beautiful.

At ten in the evening, after the movie ended, Conway and Valerio were both tucked in by their nanny, leaving only

Leandro and Seraphina in the courtyard.

They both lounged on a deck chair. Seraphina, who had been horsing around all night, was now beat, sprawled so

comfortably on the chair that she didn’t want to budge.

Leandro held her in his arms, not moving either.

“Did you go home?” After who knows how long, Seraphina suddenly asked.

“Mhm,” Leandro responded.

Seraphina suddenly opened her eyes to look at him, “Is your mom doing okay?”

“She’s fine,” Leandro replied, “same old, same old.”

Seraphina was silent for a moment, then suddenly said, “Are we weird for being like this?”

Ever since getting hitched eight months ago, Seraphina hadn’t seen Gloria once, though she hadn’t planned to

either, she couldn’t help but wonder.

Leandro glanced down at her and slowly said, “Just like this, it’s pretty great.”

As long as it could always be like this, it would be more than enough.

Seraphina wanted to say something else, but Leandro leaned down and kissed her again.

In this scorching summer, they wished they could kiss until the end of time.
