Chapter 177
Conway had finished his breakfast but was still sitting at the table, reading the newspaper. When he saw Leandro descending the stairs, a smile automatically crept onto his face
“What’s up with you today?” Conway asked, “Did you oversleep?”
Leandro sat down, sipped his coffee, and replied, “Nope.”
Conway seemed satisfied and nodded. That’s more like it. Spend more time with Sera, help her to forget the past unpleasantness”
And then Conway was about to say. This incident..”
Im on it, Leandro interrupted him before he could finish. “Too many things have happened recently. It’s unlikely to be a coincidence”
Seeing his serious face, Conway couldn’t help but frown, “You don’t need to be overly suspicious until the results are out.”
Leandro didn’t say anything. He thought of Seraphina upstairs, paused with the cutlery in his hands, and then continued to eat quietly.
When Seraphina woke up, it was already noon. She picked up her phone to see several missed calls and unread messages.
Seeing who had sent the messages, Seraphina understood why. She was more than happy to go
So, over an hour later, Seraphina met Bowen, who had been waiting for her at a restaurant downtown.
Bowen was sitting at a table by the window, learing back in his chair, his brow slightly furrowed as he looked out of the window as if he had been waiting for a long time
It wasn’t until Seraphina sat down opposite him that he turned his gaze back to her and smiled faintly, “You’re here?”
“Yes.” Seraphina replied. “I’m sorry, I overslept today and kept you waiting”
“No worries” Bowen was still smiling, Take a look at the menu. See what you want to eat
Seraphina chose a dish at random, then turned to Bowen, “You were in such a rush to meet me. What’s up?”
Bowen looked at her for a moment, then said directly, “Where’s Sandra?”
“What?” Hearing this, Seraphina raised her eyebrows slightly. “Why would you ask me where Sandra is? Isn’t she at home?”
Hearing this, Bowen slowly said, “Yes, she’s not at home. She’s missing…”
“Why aren’t you looking for her?” Seraphina asked, “Has she been kidnapped?”
Bowen looked at Seraphina quietly for a moment, then suddenly laughed, “Is this your idea?”
Seraphina seemed intent on playing dumb, “What?”
Bowen sighed helplessly, Tve known Sandra since we were kids, and you two have been best friends since childhood. We both know what she’s like. And she only has you as a close friend, Sera, don’t mess around”
As Seraphina slowly ate, she said, ‘Since you know Sandra so well, you should understand that what’s between you two isn’t really my business, right?” After hearing this. Bowen paused, seemingly acknowledging her point in silence, then said, “Sera, I just want to know where she is. Is she sale?”
“I really don’t know” Seraphina said, “Whatever the reason for her disappearance, she ll be found for the same reason, right?”
Bowen couldn’t help but glance out the window again, then asked when he turned back. You already know, don’t you?”
Seraphina kept her head down, eating, and replied without looking up, it’s better for me not to know about these things, right?”
