Tangled in His Obsession

Chatper 298

Seraphina and Leandro locked eyes for a moment before she reached out with a smile and grabbed his hand, “Been waiting long, huh?”

Leandro just looked at her silently for a bit, took her hand, and turned to walk away.

It was late at night and the moment Seraphina got in the car, she nestled against Leandro’s shoulder, closing her eyes to rest.

Leandro held her hand and occasionally glanced at her, but remained quiet.

When they got home, to their surprise the lights were still on.

As Seraphina followed Leandro inside, she saw Karan escorting the regular house visitor, Dr. Felton, down the stairs.

Leandro knitted his brows, “What’s up?”

Karan sighed, “Valerio caught a cold and seems to have a bit of a fever, so I just called Dr. Felton over for a checkup.”

Upon hearing this, Seraphina anxiously asked, “How did he suddenly get a cold? Is it serious?”

“Nothing serious,” Dr. Felton chuckled. “Just a common cold, the fever isn’t too high, it should subside by tomorrow.”

After hearing this, Seraphina thanked Dr. Felton and quickly went upstairs.

Leandro watched her disappear up the stairs, then turned his attention back to Dr. Felton and exchanged a few words.Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.

Dr. Felton was Valerio’ regular doctor, so he was well-aware of Valerio’s condition. Seeing Seraphina rushing upstairs to check on Valerio, he couldn’t help but laugh, “Mrs. Reynolds sure cares about Valerio. When I was treating him earlier, Valerio was eagerly waiting for you guys to return.”

Upon hearing this, Leandro simply responded with a nonchalant nod.

Upstairs, when Seraphina pushed open Valerio’s bedroom door, the little guy was lying in bed with a fever patch on. He looked really upset.

Hearing the door open, Valerio turned his head and saw Seraphina, his frown deepened.

“No crying allowed,” Seraphina pointed at him. “As a boy, you can’t cry over a little sickness, it makes you look bad.”

Hearing this, Valerio grudgingly swallowed his sobs and held back his sense of injustice.

Only then did Seraphina move to sit by his bed. She checked his temperature while commenting, “Why do you catch a cold so easily? Your constitution is too weak, we’ll have to get your dad to help you toughen up…

Valerio didn’t respond, he just clutched Seraphina’s sleeve tightly.

By the time Leandro came upstairs after seeing Dr. Felton off, Seraphina was already lying in Valerio’s bed, cradling him in her arms, putting him to sleep.

Leandro approached and also reached out to feel his temperature.

Valerio, in his drowsy state, opened his eyes to glance at Leandro, before closing them again and snuggling deeper into Seraphina’s embrace.

Seeing Valerio close his eyes, his little hand quietly clutched Seraphina’s sleeve again.

Seraphina and Leandro exchanged glances, she shrugged, “I can’t help it. It’s the sick who matter most. I have to be with him.”

Leandro didn’t respond, he just straightened the corners of Valerio’s blanket, gave Seraphina a look, and left.

Seraphina didn’t sleep well that night. On one hand, Valerio kept holding onto her, and on the other, her mind was occupied with other things.

When she woke up in the morning, Valerio’s fever had subsided and

was sleeping peacefully.

Seraphina carefully got out of bed, planning to return to her own room for a shower.

It was still early, plus she didn’t sleep well, so she was a bit groggy. She walked straight to the bathroom after entering her room.

However, when she opened the bathroom door, a man suddenly appeared in front of her-

Leandro was standing in the shower area. It seemed like he’d just finished showering and was towelling off, and she’d just walked right

Seraphina was at a loss for a moment, “Why are you here?”

After saying that, she suddenly sensed danger.

A man, fresh out of the shower, in her bathroom…

Seraphina turned to run, but it was too late.

Leandro grabbed her with one hand, turned the shower back on with the other, and pulled her under the water…

Seraphina wasn’t quite sure what was going on.

She’d slept in Valerio’s room for the night, and come morning Leandro was in her bathroom.

And this was how they met.

It wasn’t until Leandro carried her back to bed and she fell onto the mattress that it dawned on her Leandro had spent the entire night in

her room.

Her bed had been slept in, her bookshelf had been rifled through, the books that had been flipped through were still on the table.

At a glance, Seraphina recognized them as her high school textbooks and some other reading material.

Why on earth was this guy not sleeping and instead snooping around her room in the middle of the night?

Seraphina looked up at Leandro, who was also looking at her, his gaze intense.

She thought, he must have something to say.

Sure enough, the next moment, Leandro reached out and gently covered her lips. After a few strokes, he slowly asked, “Do you wronged?”

Wronged?

Seraphina was taken aback for a moment and then realized.

He must have heard what Keeley said to her yesterday.

Keeley had told her not to compromise herself for anyone, especially when dealing with Leandro.,

So, he was feeling upset.

Seraphina stayed quiet for a moment before slightly lifting herself and snuggling into him.

“I don’t know if I’m wronged.” She said, poking at his muscular body. “All I know is, Mr. Reynolds has given me a lot. I’m not losing out…” She couldn’t help but laugh as she finished her sentence, then she wrapped her arms around him and said, “Of course, if you could give a little more, that’d be even better…”

Leandro stared at her thoughtfully for a moment, before pulling her back into the bed covers.

After who knows how long, there’s a knock at Seraphina’s door, and she could tell right away who it was.

Seraphina’s eyes snapped open, “It’s your son!” She said to Leandro.

Leandro seemed not to hear her.

Then, Seraphina thought she heard the sound of the door outside being opened.

She started to panic, “Leandro!”

But Leandro still held her tightly.

The doorknob turned a few times, finally being opened from the outside.

At the same time, Leandro finally let go of Seraphina.

Valerio peeked in from the doorway, hearing the sound of hasty breathing, so he stepped inside.

Seraphina had quickly thrown on a robe and was sitting on the edge of the bed, while Leandro was still lying there.

Valerio stood at the foot of the bed, looking at Seraphina who should have been in his bed, but for some reason was in the same room

as his father. He might have been a little angry, furrowing his brows as he walked out.
