Tangled in His Obsession (Seraphina)

Chapter 169

Leandro’s words made Seraphina pause for a bit. As she lifted her eyes to look at him, he was also

looking at her, his eyes as deep and unreadable as

ever.

Seraphina shrugged it off and gave a nonchalant laugh.

She didn’t know why Leandro suddenly said something like that, but for her, this wedding was just a

formality She didn’t give a hoot whether anyone walked her down the aisle

However, Leandro’s words got Conway all revved up “Am I going to walk Sera down the aisle?”

“Who else could it be? Leandro replied.

Conway turned to look at Magdalen, who smiled faintly and replied, “You’ve seen her grow up, of

course, you should take her into the church.”

Upon hearing this, Seraphina finally looked up and held Conway’s hand, “Yeah, this important and

tough task has got to be your gig”

Conway was clearly jazzed about this topic, nodding in agreement, “All right, then I must take good

care of myself this month. You all should come home and stay with me, got it?”

Seraphina nodded, only to hear Magdalen say, “I won’t be going.”

Upon hearing this, Conway frowned slightly and sighed under his breath.

Seraphina smiled and said, “It might be tricky having Mom around, especially if friends and relatives

come over, it could get awkward. No worries, Valerio and I will be with you”

Knowing the inconvenience, Conway didn’t want any trouble, and since Magdalen was always low–key,

he wasn’t too worried, so he nodded, “All right.”

After that, Conway turned to Leandro, “Leandro, you want to move in?”

Leandro glanced at Seraphina and slowly said, “If she and Valerio are going. I’ll naturally follow

Upon hearing this, Seraphina gave him a quick look, then turned her gaze away, telling Conway, “He’s

so busy, it doesn’t matter if he moves or not. Well hardly see him anyway”

“Did you hear that?” Conway looked at Leandro, “Sera is complaining about you. You need to chill out a

bit. There’s a lot to prepare for the wedding!”

Leandro’s gaze landed on Seraphina, only slowly saying, “Grandpa, don’t worry, I got it.”

The move began the next day. Thankfully, Reynolds Manor was well–maintained, and Leandro always

had a “backup plan“, so it didn’t require much effort. As for Valerio, as long as Seraphina was there, he

was willing to follow, no matter the size or condition of the house.

So that same night, everyone returned to Reynolds Manor.

Conway left the hospital, his spirits were much improved, and he was full of energy and glowing all

night.

Leandro also finished work early, and the family of four happily had dinner together. Seraphina was

helping Valerio with his homework on the side while Leandro was discussing wedding plans with

Conway

When Seraphina finished helping Valerio with his homework and sent him upstairs to shower and

sleep, Conway was still enthusiastically discussing details with Leandro, looking not the least bit tired.

“Conway, it’s time to hit the sack Seraphina came over and said, “Valerio’s already asleep, and you’re

still here chatting.”

Conway looked at her, “Being an old man, I don’t need much sleep. I’m not tired.”

“Even if you’re not tired, you should take a break” Leandro’s doctor happened to walk in at that

moment, smiling and saying, “Conway, you have a wedding in a month. You need to keep yourself

healthy!”

Hearing this, Conway immediately said. “All right, I’ll hit the hay now.”

So, they all escorted Conway upstairs, watched the doctor examine him, and saw him take his

medicines and lie down before they were reassured.

“All right, you all should turn in as well.” Conway said, “You’ve all been busy all day. You must be

bushed.”

Seraphina yawned and cheerfully escorted the doctor out of the room.

She had just sent the doctor away and was about to go upstairs when Leandro came out of Conway’s

room.

They bumped into each other at the staircase. Seraphina was planning to go straight to her room, but

Leandro reached out and grabbed her hand.

Somewhat surprised. Seraphina looked at him, then at the last servant leaving Conway’s room. She

smiled at them and then went downstairs

It was then that it hit her- before moving in, she didn’t think much about it, assuming that Conway

wouldn’t always be watching her and Leandro and that they could keep to themselves like in the

apartment. But now she realized that there were far more people in this house than just Conway

“What a bummer Seraphina approached Leandro, giving a small smile, “Looks like we’ll have to share

a bed!”

With that, she turned around and headed toward Leandro’s room.

Leandro watched her go, lit a cigarette at the top of the stairs, and slowly finished it before returning to

his bedroom.

Compared to the residence he bought later, the bedroom in the old house was rather small. It didn’t

even have a dressing room.

Seraphina’s suitcase was placed at the foot of the bed, and her dress was on the bed. The sound of

running water could be heard from the bathroom where she was taking a shower.

Leandro took his laptop to the balcony, dealing with work while waiting for her to finish her shower.

The clear autumn right sky was full of stars, slightly chilly Leandro sat there, taking forever to reply to a

single email.

Seraphina came out of the bathroom

She was still wearing her super short nightgown, her thick, damp hair scattered over her shoulders.

She glanced at Leandro on the balcony and went straight to the bed.

When Leandro shut down his computer and went inside, she was sitting on the edge of the bed,

scrolling through her phone. One leg was tucked under her, the other casually hanging off the edge of

the bed, extended onto the floor.

Leandro shot her a glance before heading into the bathroom.

He was quick with his showers. By the time he emerged, Seraphina was still in the same position,

unmoved.

Leandro, while drying his slightly damp hair, kept stealing glances at her leg hanging off the bed

It was only when she noticed his gaze that Seraphina slowly looked up, meeting his eyes.

In this small room, with a man and a woman fresh out of the shower, the atmosphere was undeniably

charged with an ambiguous tension.

Suddenly, Seraphina let out a small laugh, “You’re doing it on purpose, aren’t you?”

Upon hearing this, Leandro tossed aside his towel and slowly walked over to the bed, slightly bending

over to look at Seraphina, who was sitting on the

bed

“Yeah, I’m doing it on purpose,” Leandro replied.
