Tangled in His Obsession (Seraphina) novel Chapter 150

Chapter 150

Bruce’s conversation with Leandro didn’t end on a high note

After spending a full day with Conway Seraphina was now picking up Valerio from school.

Valerio had been feeling down all day because he didn’t see her last night. As soon as school ended and he saw Seraphina, he rushed over to her.

She smiled, patted his head, and ushered him into the car

They drove off to Leandro’s new apartment. Everything was normal, but Valerio kept glancing at Seraphina, looking a bit unsettled.

“What’s up?” Seraphina asked. “Why are you staring at me like that?”

Valerio lowered his head. After a while, he looked up at her again, his eyes still filled with unease and confusion

Valerio could sense something different about Seraphina, but he didn’t know how to express it.

After a moment of silence, he suddenly opened his backpack and rummaged inside. To Seraphina’s surprise, he pulled out a small box of chocolates and handed it to her

Seeing the chocolates, Seraphina burst out laughing “Where did you get these? Did a little girl give them to you?”

There was a flash of discomfort in Valerio’s eyes, an obvious yes.

“You’re giving me someone else’s gift, huh? You’re quite the little schemer for your age. That’s not good,” Seraphina said, taking the chocolates She opened the box, popped one into her mouth, and handed another one to Valerio.

Valerio took the chocolate and ate it, all the while watching Seraphina with careful eyes as if trying to gauge her mood.

After seeing his look, Seraphina fell silent for a moment. Then she reached out, touched his face, and asked softly, “Would you be upset if we can’t find your mom?”

Valerio’s eyes widened in shock and fear.

Seraphina quickly hugged him and reassured him, “Don’t worry, we will find her. Your mom must be so upset without you.. she’ll definitely come looking for you*

Valerio clung to her, his hand gripping her sleeve tightly Seraphina noticed but didn’t stop him. She stared out the window, her eyes filled with confusion.

As the evening fell, Leandro’s car pulled up to the nursing home.

Conway was having dinner under Lacy’s care. When he saw Leandro, Lacy immediately set another place for him and left.

“Why are you here at this hour?” Conway asked, “Seraphina left two hours ago.”

“I came to have dinner with you.” Leandro responded nonchalantly.

Conway looked at him and sighed, “Did something happen?”

“Nothing happened Everything’s normal,” Leandro replied.

“You’re all keeping secrets from me, aren’t you?” Conway asked, “Seraphina’s been acting differently today, but she wouldn’t tell me anything. Do you think I can’t handle it because I’m old, or do you think I can’t offer help anymore?”

“You shouldn’t worry about it. You should focus on getting better.”

“Worry? I’m not that worried,” Conway said. “I’m most worried about you and Seraphina. Why would I worry about anyone else?”

Just then, a crisp female voice rang from outside the door, “Why are you so biased? You have so many grandchildren, but you only care about Leandro and a stranger?”

Leandro turned his head and saw Ferne Reynolds.
