Tangled in His Obsession (Seraphina) novel Chapter 104

Chapter 104

Determined to swiftly rid the Reynolds family of Seraphina’s influence, Nanette orchestrated a blind date for Seraphina that very evening

What Leandro hadn’t anticipated was that the man Nanette had paired Seraphina with was none other than Herman’s elder brother, John Garcia

John, the eldest scion of the Garcia family’s second generation, had forsaken a promising political career to venture into entrepreneurship Having successfully established a thriving business while maintaining his family’s prestige he had become quite a prominent figure in Sunburst City His only ‘blemish” might be his divorce over a year ago However, for a man of his stature this aspect might have enhanced his allure

“My parents have been incessantly harping about my brother’s matrimonial prospects of late, insisting on finding him a suitable partner I could never have predicted they’d choose Seraphina, Herman stated “Aren’t you going to intervene?”

Leandro, reclining in his office chair and contemplating the neon lights outside the window, responded casually “Didn’t you receive the memo? We’ve clarified the nature of our relationship”

Herman chuckled at that. “Cut the crap. If it was that simple, why did you take a bullet for her the night. Fidelia got in trouble? And let me remind you, my bro’s charm post–divorce is a real babe magnet. If you’re not careful, Seraphina might fall for him. At that time, don’t say I didn’t warn you”

Just as Herman finished, he was called away on his end. After a few words, he hurriedly hung up

Leandro put down his phone, lit a cigarette and sat in silence, lost in thought.

That night, Seraphina and John had a great time over dinner and a movie. They got along so well that they even agreed to meet again the next day

When Seraphina got home, Conway was still up, lounging in his chair watching TV

When he saw Seraphina, Conway didn’t give her a warm welcome, “Your date’s over?”

“Yep Seraphina carelessly tossed her purse aside and then flopped down on the sofa. “God, I haven’t been on a proper date in forever…”

Conway shot her a cold lock. “How was it?”

“Amazing! Seraphina replied, legs kicked up in a relaxed pose and a triumphant smile on her face. “I thought Nanette was pulling my leg, but she actually set me up with a great catch!”

“A divorced catch,” Conway corrected her coldly

“What’s the big deal? Seraphina shrugged “He’s a great guy and we had a blast!”

Conway snorted dismissively, turned off the TV, and stormed upstairs.

Seraphina laid on the couch for a while, then got up to tidy her purse. She checked her phone, but the screen was blank. Not a single text.

With a smirk, she got up and headed upstairs too.

Over the next few days, whenever John had time, he would invite Seraphina out. They listened to music, went to exhibitions, rode horses, swam, played sports. Seraphina was thrilled with all the activities.

It wasn’t until a week later, when she accompanied John to play golf, that she ran into Leandro

John’s golf time was scheduled for the moming which meant Seraphina had to get up early. Since she didn’t play golf, she was a little beat

Just as John was teaching her how to swing someone called out “Mr Reynolds. Seraphina instantly perked up and hit a beautiful shot

“Well done, you’re a natural,” John praised her swing then turned to see Leandro and greeted him with a smile, “Leandro, long time no see.” Leandro in his white shirt and black pants, a rare casual look for him, stopped in his tracks when he saw them. “You’re the one who’s been MIA.”
