Tangled in His Obsession (Seraphina)

Chapter 85

Leandro wasn’t stingy with his words, he told her, “I know more than you do.”

Seraphina bit her lip lightly, sat up to look at him, and asked in a hushed tone, “So, what is it that you

know more than me?”

Leandro turned his head to look at her, his gaze deep and indifferent

Was he implying he had no reason to tell her?

“We’ve slept together, you know!” Seraphina reached out her hand, lightly pulling at his tie, What’s the

harm in telling me?”

Leandro pulled his tie back, looking at Seraphina, “Spending a night with you, wasn’t that my loss?”

On hearing this, Seraphina couldn’t help but laugh.

These were the words she had intentionally said to him when she called him afterward, who knew he’d

use it against her now?

7 was just teasing you then, after all, I never thought you’d take a bullet for me!” Seraphina moved

closer to Leandro, looking up at him, “So, what were you thinking when you risked your life to save

me?”

Her eyes were bright and lively, as if she was truly expecting him to say something touching.

Leandro looked at her calmly, “I didn’t think much when taking the bullet, saving you was just to protect

myself”

Seraphina held his gaze silently for a moment, confirming that Leandro was telling the truth.

Regardless of what he had in mind when he stood in front of Balch’s room that night, he hadn’t

expected Fidelia to have a gun, and she just happened to jump out of the window and run into him.

When Fidelia started shooting, he shielded her and also protected himself.

If it were any other situation, she’d probably be crying tears of gratitude if he didn’t push her away when

she was in danger.

Seraphina sighed, “Mr. Reynolds, you saved my life and you don’t want anything in return, this makes

me feel very guilty”

“I don’t need your repayment” Leandro said.

“I was thinking of offering myself to you, Mr. Reynolds, are you really dismissing the idea?”

After hearing her, Leandro gave her a look, “Balch also took a knife for you, but all you can think of is

how to prove that he is related to his wife’s death”

Finally, he brought up this topic!

Seraphina let out a sigh of relief, and started to laugh.

Even though she guessed his understanding of her intention from his words and actions, Leandro

never directly admitted it. Now they could finally discuss the matter directly.

“If you think what I’m doing is wrong, feel free to expose me.” Sitting cross–legged in the spacious back

seat, Seraphina looked fearless.

Leandro averted his gaze, “Whether you’re right or wrong is none of my business.”

“But you ruined my plan.” Seraphina looked at him, “If it wasn’t for your cop friend that night, things

wouldn’t have escalated to this point, and I might have found the truth by now.”

“True.” Leandro glanced at her sarcastically. The death of a woman with a bad reputation in social

circles is popular star”

Deed much simpler than the death of a

Seraphina chuckled, “I’ve always said that I’m not afraid of death. I was fully prepared, and even if I die,

the truth will come out.”

“So, you want an apology from me?”

“No, of course not.” Seeing Leandro’s face getting colder, Seraphina quickly laughed, “I just want to

know, how did you find out about Balch and his wife’s death?”

After hearing this, Leandro calmly closed his eyes and looked out the window.

The car had already entered the gate of Urban Oasis. Seraphina knew she would be kicked out of the

car soon and wouldn’t be able to continue the conversation, so she said, “Mr. Reynolds, you said you’ll

settle the score with me after I finish with Balch. Don’t you want to resolve this issue quickly instead of

lingering with me?”

The car stopped in front of Leandro’s villa, but neither of them moved.

Seraphina propped her chin on her hands, looking at Leandro with a playful yet sincere gaze.

“Is this your condition?” Leandro looked at her, “Not enough”

With that, he opened the car door and walked into his house.

Seraphina stayed in the back seat, watching his retreating figure, grinding her teeth in frustration.

He said her condition was not enough? What he was interested in her was her body, wasn’t it?

No matter how cool and rational a man is, he can’t avoid being driven by carnal desires. Unfortunately,

she had no intention of paying such a price for this

case

With these angry thoughts, Seraphina slowly put on her shoes, got out of the car, and walked towards

Balch’s house.

She opened the door and walked in, went upstairs, and directly walked to a door that had been closed

for a long time.

Following the password Balch had given her, Seraphina unlocked the door and walked in.

To her surprise, it was a study, filled with office supplies and a large number of books, but dust had

accumulated on them, indicating that no one had

been here for a long time.

Seraphina went to the desk and saw a picture of Janetta taken before her death.

The office supplies on the desk were mostly feminine, so this must have been Janetta’s study before

her death.

Seraphina looked around carefully, went behind the desk, opened the first drawer, found a key, and

opened the lock of the second drawer.

Locked in the drawer were a bunch of documents

Seraphina casually dusted off the chair and sat down to read the documents.

After quickly flipping through about a dozen pages, Seraphina discovered the secret – these were

internal documents related to the Lawson Group. involving insider trading

Some of these documents were signed by Janetta, and some by Balch.

For a company, these documents are very important. If made public, the company’s responsible person

might face imprisonment.

These were the things Balch didn’t want the police to see, but would he really trust her with such

important things?

Seraphina was holding the document, looking a bit spacey as she sunk into thought.

In the afternoon, Herman showed up at Balch’s doorstep with a young cop. When Seraphina came

downstairs to answer the door, she was dressed pretty casually

Herman gave Seraphina a quick once–over before looking away. “Someone just died bucket in this

house and it was only just unsealed, you’ve got some guts moving back in.”

“I haven’t done anything shady, what’s there to be scared of?” Seraphina shot back. “Officer Herman,

this house has been unsealed already, you guys should have searched all the places that needed

searching What are you here to search for?”

Herman put on his gloves in front of Seraphina, I’m a stickler for details when I’m working, even if it

seems like a pointless task, I don’t mind doing it twice”

Hearing this, Seraphina laughed, I admire cops like you the most, please come in.”

And so, Herman and the young cop entered the house and started a thorough search, starting from the

kitchen where the incident took place.

Wherever they searched, Seraphina was there, watching them closely from the sideline.
