Chapter 221

A few heads turned, to see a good looking man, probably in his late twenties.

He had fine features, his eyes twinkling with a playful light. A total heartthrob

Unlike most men around him who were suited up, he was dressed pretty casually, like he was just here

to join the fun. But with his good looks and tall stature, he could pull off any outfit without coming off as

rude.

Seraphina had met a lot of people, heard a lot of names, but none seemed to interest her

Feeling a bit worn out, she just had her bodyguard clear a quiet spot for her to rest when someone

approached her.

The bodyguard stopped the person momentarily. Seraphina looked up to see a handsome young man

waving at her with a smile, blocked by the bodyguard

She exchanged a glance with him and signaled her bodyguard to let him through.

The guy came over and took a seat next to Seraphina, opening with a smile, “Hey, I’m Keeley”

His introduction had Seraphina raising an eyebrow, but she responded with a chuckle, “Hello. Got a

business card?”

Keeley shrugged, “Nope. We can’t chat without a business card, huh?”

“Not really.” Seraphina toyed with her hair, grinning at him, “it’s just that everyone who’s approached

me today has given me one. You’re the first one who hasnt Kinda threw me off.”

Keeley turned to look at her, “How could I be like them? I’m not here for your title”

“Then what are you here for? Seraphina couldn’t help but laugh, “If it’s not for my title, it must be for

me, right?”

Keeley held her gaze, and instead of denying it, he laughed and slowly said, “You look stunning

tonight”

“Thank you.” Seraphina responded.

Keeley shrugged, “Just telling it like it is

Seraphina shook her head, “I m not thanking you for the compliment.”

“Huh?” Keeley raised an eyebrow, Then what’s it for?”

Seraphina called for a waiter, took two glasses of champagne, handed one to him, and clinked glasses

with him, smiling. Thanks for feeding me, getting me drinks, and not pressuring me.”

At her words, Keeley seemed a bit taken aback.

Seraphina finished her drink and shook her glass at him. Through the crystal clear glass, he saw her

face – delicate yet sly. His heart, which seemed to have paused, started beating again, faster and

faster

Keeley laughed, “Although I’m not quite sure what you’re thanking me for, I’ll take it.”

After saying that, he also drained his glass as a toast to Seraphina.

He said he didnt understand what she was saying, but Seraphina knew that he understood better than

anyone else.

About three months ago, she was kidnapped for no reason. The kidnappers didn’t ask for a ransom,

and didn’t bother her during the kidnapping – her cooperation was a key factor- except for tying a bomb

to her hand in the end.

The kidnapping left no clues. It’s still unclear who was behind it.

Recalling that day, she successfully pushed Valerio out of the car and faced two kidnappers alone,

saying right off the bat that she wouldn’t resist, which made one of them laugh.

The one she made laugh took good care of her throughout the ordeal, never short of food or water.

She had no suspicions or defenses, eating without a care in the world, which made him laugh out loud

repeatedly.

Yet, despite all this, he never showed his face or spoke in front of her

Not until she was taken to that abandoned building to wait for Leandro, did he tie her up with just the

right amount of strength and whispered in her ear, “Goodbye.”

After that, he disappeared.

Until today

Seraphina never thought that she would recognize that voice from just a sentence in this place.

The man in front of her, Keeley

Seraphina initially thought that revealing his identity would make him flee immediately, but Keeley didn’t

leave. After sitting quietly for a while, he seemed to find it more and more amusing and couldn’t help

but laugh again.

“Why are you laughing? Seraphina asked him, tilting her head

Keeley still had a smile on his face, looking at her, “I’m happy”

“Happy?” Seraphina glanced at him, “You sure know how to enjoy life.”

“Getting to know a fun and beautiful woman like you, of course I’m happy” Keeley said.

“I don’t see what’s so fun about it.” Seraphina said, “It was an unpleasant experience. Nothing got

resolved, and I don’t know when it might happen again.”

Hearing this, Keeley leaned closer to Seraphina, smiling, “What do you want to know?”

“What do you think?” Seraphina retorted, “I just want to know who’s behind you. That’s not too much to

ask, right?”

Keeley laughed again, ‘Not at all.”

After saying that, he fell silent for a while, seemingly considering whether he could say certain things.

Seraphina watched him quietly, waiting patiently.

After a while, Keeley finally looked at her and slowly said, “I don’t know.”

“You don’t know?” Seraphina asked, puzzled, “You don’t know who you work for?”

“I don’t care.” Keeley shrugged, “All I need to know is what I have to do, get paid accordingly. I’m not

interested in the rest.”
