Tangled in His Obsession (Seraphina) novel Chapter 184

Chapter 184

In the wee hours of the second day, before the break of dawn, a car sped into Reynolds Manor.

Suddenly, there was a racket upstairs and downstairs.

“Leandro Leandro Get your ass out here!”

Billy Reynolds was banging on Leandro’s bedroom door, but there was no response.

In Conway’s room, Seraphina, who had been up all night, perked up at the noise and realized that Conway had also been startled awake.

“Grandpa, stay put. Let me check what’s going on. Seraphina soothed Conway, then got up.

She had barely reached the door when it was pushed open from outside, and Billy strode in

Billy didn’t look too pleased to see Seraphina behind the door. He walked over to Conway’s bed and said, “Dad, you need to do something about Leandro! Ferne is your granddaughter too, what’s wrong with her being a little stubborn? She doesn’t belong to such places, does she?”

Conway, just waking up and feeling a slight headache, didn’t speak until Seraphina had adjusted his pillow. Then she turned to Billy and said. “Calm down, spill it out slowly.”

Billy glanced at her before continuing, “Dad, Ferne is your blood granddaughter. You can’t neglect her for an outsider, can you?”

“What are you talking about?” Conway asked, frowning.

“Leandro wants to ship Ferne off to the Bahamas Billy was frantic and furious. “Does he call the shots in the Reynolds family? Does he do as he pleases?”

Leandro’s voice came from the doorway before he even finished his sentence. “Who do you think should call the shots, then?”

Leandro, fresh out of the shower with wet hair and a black bathrobe, looked more imposing than ever.

‘Ferne is your cousin!” Billy was enraged. “Even if she made a mistake, she did it for your sake! How can you be so autocratic?”

Leandro sneered at Billy’s accusation “Right, I am autocratic. If you think it’s not right for Ferne to go to the Bahamas alone, you can go with her.”

Billy was left speechless by Leandro’s retort. He turned to Conway, saying, “Dad, look at him! Look at the nonsense he’s spouting!”

Conway, with his eyes closed and his brow furrowed, slowly opened his eyes after hearing this. He glanced at Billy, then at Seraphina.

Seraphina, sitting on the couch and twiddling her thumbs, acted as if the Reynolds family’s problems were not her business.

Seeing this, Conway slowly said, “Leandro, Ferne did wrong, but she meant no harm. Sending her to the Bahamas is too harsh.”

“No.” Leandro cut him off before he could finish.

“You’re not even listening to your Grandpa?” Billy turned to Leandro. “Do you think you’re some kind of King?”

“Whether I’m a King or not is not important.” Leandro spoke in a cold, low voice. “Instead of bothering Grandpa here, you might as well rush to the airport. Maybe you can still see Ferne off

Billy’s face changed at his words, but before he could say anything, he forcefully pushed past Leandro and bolted out of the room.

Leandro then walked up to Conway’s bed, adjusting his pillow and blanket. “It’s still early, get some more sleep”

Conway had been hands–off with the company’s affairs in recent years, and usually, Leandro would listen to whatever he said. But today, for the first time. Leandro disagreed with him.

Conway sighed softly but didn’t say anything more.

Leandro sat there for a moment before saying, “I’m going to Moonhaven today. If you don’t want to be disturbed, I’ll instruct the bodyguards not to let

anyone in.”

“Why are you suddenly going to Moonhaven?” Conway asked.

“I need to sign some documents for a project, Leandro replied. “I’ll be back in two days at most.”

Conway nodded

Leandro glanced at Seraphina, but she was still engrossed in twiddling her thumbs, not even raising her head.

“I’m heading to the airport now.” Leandro said. “Rest well.”

Without giving Seraphina another look, Leandro left the room.

Soon after, Keen’s voice could be heard in the room, followed by the sound of luggage being dragged. All the noises gradually faded away.

Leandro was gone.

Conway, who had been lying quietly, turned to Seraphina and said, “Sera.”

Seraphina immediately looked up, smiling at him. “Yes?”

Conway reached out his hand to her. Seraphina walked up and held his hand “Grandpa, what’s wrong?”

“Everything I told you last night was true, Conway slowly said. “I understand that the hardships you’ve endured in the past can’t be erased with simple words. You don’t have to force yourself on me. If you really can’t forgive Leandro, then let it be. If you don’t truly want to marry Leandro, then call off the wedding. I just want you to be happy. As long as you’re happy, I’m at ease.”

Seraphina held Conway’s hand tightly and listened quietly.
