Chapter 160
A swarm of reporters buzzed eagerly, thrusting their microphones forward aggressively.
Caught in the middle of the frenzy, Seraphina looked to Leandro, whispering, “Should I handle this?”
Leandro, assessing the situation, grabbed a microphone and announced, “Regarding this morning’s event, all your questions have been addressed. We’ll withhold further comments until the police conclude their investigation”
This only stoked the reporters‘ curiosity further.
“So, Mr. Reynolds, can you shed light on your relationship with Ms. Bennett?”
“Rumors suggested an engagement between you two, yet Ms. Bennett previously mentioned you’re merely related. Has that status changed?”
Amid the barrage of questions, Seraphina maintained a bright, composed smile.
Leandro shot her a glance, giving no indication he’d entertain the inquiries.
“Hey, you guys sure have a lot of questions.” Seraphina picked up the conversation, complaining, “We’ve got things to do-”
She tried to leave, pulling Leandro by the hand, but the reporters wouldn’t let them go that easily, hurrying to shoot their questions-
‘Ms. Bennett, give us an answer!”
Obviously annoyed by the disturbance, Seraphina turned to look at the excited reporters. She first made a helpless gesture, then turned to Leandro, stepping forward, practically pressing herself against him.
Then, Seraphina gently left a kiss on the corner of Leandro’s lips.
Instantly, the scene erupted with cheers and screams!
Seraphina gave Leandro a soft smile and nestled into his embrace.
Through her delicate dress, he could feel the warmth of her body and its gentle curves, mirroring the tenderness of her smile
Yet, what truly lay beneath her graceful exterior remained a mystery.
Though the press conference left their relationship undefined, the kiss they shared in front of the cameras spoke volumes
The topic quickly heated up online, causing a large–scale discussion and resharing.
At the same time, the topic also caused a big stir in the Reynolds family
When Gloria saw the news, Bruce was about to leave the house. The two had a heated argument. During the argument, Gloria saw Bruce calling Magdalen and had a meltdown. She started throwing things at Bruce. Bruce was hit on the head by a vase, he slapped Gloria hard and then left. After he left, Gloria drove after him but lost him on the way. So, she started looking for Seraphina everywhere.
Gloria first went to the villa, but only Karan was there. Seeing Gloria in such a state, she couldn’t stop her and had to accompany her to Leandro’s new
apartment
When they arrived at Leandro’s new apartment, Seraphina had just come back fro
the hospital.
Conway was very happy to see the news, laughing heartily, repeatedly saying that he was relieved. Seeing his reaction, Seraphina also felt a little relieved, so she took Valerio home first.
While Seraphina was helping Valerio pack his school bag, Gloria and Karan entered the house.
Seeing Gloria raging and out of control, Valerio was startled and ran into Seraphina’s arms
Just as Seraphina was holding him, Gloria rushed up to her and threw Valerio’s school bag at Seraphina, “What the hell are you trying to do? What are you and your mother up to? Are you hell–bent on ruining the Reynolds family, you won’t be happy until we’re torn apart?”
Seraphina saw the situation, exchanged a look with Karan, then carried Valerio upstairs.
“Stop! You have to explain to me today! What are you and your mother scheming?”
Seeing that Gloria was about to chase upstairs, Karan immediately stopped her, “Don’t panic. Now that you’re here, you think she won’t give you an explanation? Don’t scare Valerio! I’ll go up and ask her to come down! I’ll make her speak clearly!”
Gloria was shaking with anger. Karan finally managed to calm her down and hurried upstairs.
In the upstairs room, Seraphina was trying to soothe Valerio’s emotions.
When Karan came in, Valerio was startled and hid in Seraphina’s arms.
“Don’t be scared, Valerio Karan immediately came over, “Grandma is downstairs, she didn’t come up…”
Seraphina also comforted Valerio in a low voice, “Don’t be scared, I’m here, what are you afraid of?”
Karan couldn’t help but look at Seraphina, “I’ll take care of Valerio, you go downstairs and explain to her. Whatever you do, make sure she calms down.”
