Chapter 419

Even though Valerio’s mood was back to its usual cheerful self, allowing their vacation to proceed as planned, there

was an undeniable tension between Seraphina and Leandro in the next few days.

While Valerio was too young to understand, Seraphina and Leandro were well aware that some things weren’t so

easily brushed aside.

During these days, Leandro was out early and back late, and the housekeeper finally sensed the discord between

the two adults.

“What’s going on with you and Mr. Leandro, my lady?” the housekeeper asked Seraphina the night before their

departure. “You’re leaving for your vacation tomorrow, right? Have you two had a fight?”

Valerio, who had been sitting next to Seraphina, immediately looked at her upon hearing the question.

Seraphina met his gaze and smiled gently, “Of course not.”

Valerio visibly relaxed.

“So, the trip is still on for tomorrow?” the housekeeper ventured.

“Of course it is,” Seraphina replied, pulling Valerio into her arms. “Our little Valerio has been looking forward to it

for days. We can’t possibly cancel now.”

That night, Leandro returned home late as usual. Knowing they had a long flight the next day, Seraphina and

Valerio had gone to bed early. Leandro stood outside Valerio’s room for a moment, listening to the silence, before

retreating to his own room.

The next morning, Valerio woke up earlier than usual, instantly rousing Seraphina. His excitement soon spread

throughout the house, and everyone was up and about earlier than usual.

Seraphina, who hadn’t slept well, was lethargic and not in the mood for conversation. The housekeeper, noticing

the tension between her and Leandro, exchanged a worried look with Conway Reynolds.

Conway, however, seemed indifferent. The family was about to be on a trip, and there would be plenty of time for

them to sort out their issues. He was confident there would be no long-lasting disputes between them.

After breakfast, before the trio left for their flight, Conway left with his personal assistant, and the housekeeper

went out to do some grocery shopping.

While Leandro worked in his study, Seraphina sat with Valerio, watching a science program on TV. Valerio, although

excited about the trip, was.engrossed in the show.

During this time, a delivery arrived at the house. It was the two coats Seraphina had ordered from a boutique

during their shopping trip. She had forgotten about them until they arrived, just in time for their trip.

Seraphina gave the coats to Valerio, told him to deliver them to Leandro as a surprise. Valerio, engrossed in the TV

program, simply handed them back to her, asking her to do it.

As Seraphina held the cashmere coats, she remembered the day they had picked them out. She thought Leandro

would look good in them, and after receiving so many gifts from him, she wanted to return the favor.

But then they ran into Gloria, and everything had changed. She sighed at the memory. If they hadn’t run into Gloria

that day, everything might have been different.

But Gloria was a part of their lives, and they couldn’t just ignore her.

Leandro was innocent in all of this. His predicament was understandable, and he hadn’t crossed any of Seraphina’s

boundaries. Although she had been upset with him, holding the coats brought a sharp pang of empathy for him.

After a long silence, Seraphina finally stood up and took the coats upstairs to Leandro.

Leandro was just finishing a phone call when Seraphina entered his study. He asked her if Valerio was getting

impatient, and she replied that a couple of minutes wouldn’t make a difference.

She handed him the bag with the coats, telling him his son picked them out. Leandro chuckled at the expensive

brand, “My son is rich”

Seraphina gave him a glance, “Do you want it or not?”

Leandro, sensing an opportunity to bridge the gap between them, agreed. He extended his arm, and Seraphina

helped him into the coat, the tension between them momentarily forgotten.

The shirt was a perfect fit. When Leandro slipped it on, it looked just as Seraphina had imagined it would.

Seraphina moved to stand in front of Leandro, adjusting the lapels and pockets of his shirt. Suddenly, Leandro

reached out and took her hand, slowly guiding it down to his waist.

The two hadn’t shared such an intimate moment in days. Even though no words were exchanged, when Leandro

made his move, Seraphina didn’t pull away.

Coming back to her senses, Seraphina gave his waist a playful squeeze. Leandro’s waist was firm, and her squeeze

barely made a dent. Nevertheless, he took the opportunity to draw her

into his embrace.

Seraphina’s hands danced around his body, poking and prodding, but ultimately, they came to rest around his

waist.

“There’s another shirt to try on,” Seraphina said. “Do you want to change?”

Before Leandro could answer, a strange and piercing shriek echoed up from the downstairs-

The sound was like the ripping of fabric, alien yet horrifying.

The expressions on Leandro and Seraphina’s faces changed instantly, and they rushed down the stairs.
