Tangled in His Obsession

Chatper 303

Seraphina initially spewed out sweet nothings just to cheer him up. She didn’t expect Leandro would ask her to repeat it.

Say it again?

Seraphina hesitantly said, “You’re my favourite…”

Compared to the casual remark just now, this one clearly lacked some confidence. But maybe, that’s her genuine feeling.

Leandro fell silent for a while. In the end, he said nothing, just pulled her hand over and kissed it lightly.

Leandro was not a patient man, but in front of her, he had to keep reminding himself-

There’s plenty of time.

After all, he himself ruined the memories of the past, and he deserved the future pain and punishment.

A week later, a report co-authored by Seraphina and Terrell was released online and offline.

The report started from the unremarkable Jones family, gradually revealing shocking events and the truth behind. It quickly sparked massive shares and discussions.

Behind this event, Seraphina’s name was widely mentioned again. The buzz about her even surpassed the case itself at one point.

Seraphina was so used to this kind of situation that she didn’t care anymore.

The day after the report was released, Seraphina bumped into Bowen at a restaurant.

When she saw him, Bowen was with a friend, holding a baby blue paper in his hand.

From afar, Seraphina already had a hunch about what that paper was.

She hadn’t seen Bowen for a while, so she went over and greeted him, “Bowen.”

Bowen seemed surprised to see her there. He paused for a moment, then smiled, “Sera, what a coincidence.” This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

“Yeah.” Seraphina replied and sat down, then looked at the baby blue paper on the table, “What’s this?”

“It’s Bowen and Ms. Martin’s engagement invitation.” Bowen’s friend answered with a smile.

“Really?” Seraphina immediately reached out her hand to Bowen, “Where’s mine?”

Bowen glanced at her hand, then told his friend, “You can go first.”

The friend knew better than to stay. He left without saying much.

“What’s up?” Seraphina asked, “It’s not cool to not invite me to your engagement. You must have one more. Give it to me!”

Saying that, Seraphina reached into his pocket and pulled out a invitation.

Seraphina carefully examined the invitation in her hand. From the colour scheme to the design, it was meticulously crafted. It was clear how important the engagement ceremony was to some people.

“This invitation is really pretty” Seraphina sincerely complimented.

Bowen glanced at the invitation and lowered his head without making a sound.

“What do you think Sandra would say if she knew you were getting engaged to another woman?”

“Sera.” Bowen called her, then slowly said, “She can’t know anymore.”

“Maybe she can see us from heaven?” Seraphina suggested.

Bowen smiled faintly at her words, then slowly said, “If she can see us from heaven, she would know you’ve done a lot for her. Let me take care of the rest.”

Seraphina was still flipping through the invitation, “Sandra knew I loved a good party. How could I miss this?”

“Sera!” Bowen called her again, then lowered his voice, “You’ve been investigating the people who killed Sandra, and you just published that report yesterday. The Martins are starting to notice you! Once you become a target of the Martins, do you think you can live peacefully?”

Seraphina slowly put on a smile, “Bowen, don’t you know that I’m born to love thrill?”

“Seraphina!” Bowen must have been pissed. He was lost for words.

“Alright, alright.” Seraphina returned the invitation to him, “It’s just an invitation, Bowen. You’re being stingy. If you don’t give me one, Leandro will get one. I’ll use his, so you don’t have to worry.”

After saying this, Seraphina walked away.

If Bowen was sending out invitations these two days, then the Martins’ invitations should also be sent around this time. After lunch, Seraphina went straight to Leandro’s office to find the invitation.

When she reached the 26th floor, the whole office was quiet. Most people were probably in a meeting.

Seraphina walked confidently to Leandro’s office. When she passed Yasmina’s desk, she saw a familiar baby blue.

Seraphina found the baby blue among a pile of documents. She only glanced at the colour and confirmed it was the invitation from the Martins.

Just as she was opening the invitation, a series of footsteps came from the corridor.

Turning around, Seraphina saw Leandro, who had just finished a meeting, leading a group of people from the direction of the meeting room/The meeting must have gone poorly, as Leandro looked upset and stern, while the people behind him seemed frightened.

Upon seeing her, Leandro slowed down his pace. His face softened a bit, but his eyes were still cold.

Yasmina, trailing behind Leandro, let out a quiet sigh when she saw Seraphina.

“Why are you here all of a sudden?” Leandro stopped in front of Seraphina.

The people behind him greeted Seraphina and quickly returned to their workstations.

Seeing the situation, Seraphina raised the invitation she was holding, “I’m just here for this, I’ll take it and go.”

With that, she turned to leave, but Leandro grabbed her wrist and dragged her straight into his office.

Once in the office, Leandro took the invitation from Seraphina’s hands.

After glancing at it, he asked nonchalantly, “You came all this way for this?”

“This is really important.” Seraphina said, “I’ve spent a lot of time and effort trying to get it, but I still couldn’t.”

With that, she tried to take the invitation back from Leandro, but he quickly lifted it out of her reach.

“So you spent all that time and effort elsewhere, but you think you can just waltz in here and take this with a single word?”

At his words, Seraphina bit her lip, shooting him a regretful look before quickly regaining her smile and plopping herself onto his lap.

She wrapped her arms around his neck and planted a kiss on him, “Darling, you’re my favorite…”

As she was speaking, she tried to snatch the invitation back. Just as she was about to grab it, Leandro lifted it even higher.

“Seraphina, are you mistaking me for Valerio?”

Leandro asked.
