Tangled in His Obsession (Seraphina) novel Chapter 210

Chapter 210

Seraphina tried several times to recall, but could not remember where she’d heard of this guy before. She reckoned it’s probably because she’d been not in a good life lately. Not working for a long time, her alertness and memory were declined

The brief chit-chat between Leandro and Patrick didn’t provide much information. All Seraphina could gather was that Patrick was also from Sunburst. City, but she had no clue why he’d been abroad for a few years and only just returned.

As they conversed, Seraphina stood quietly on the sidelines, all ears.

Leandro had always been aloof with people, and with this Patrick it was probably a meet-and-greet, so he ended the conversation without saying a word. Patrick looked at Seraphina and smiled. “Goodbye, Mrs. Reynolds.”

Seraphina responded with “Goodbye”

As Patrick moved on with his entourage, Seraphina, arm in arm with Leandro, took a few steps before stealing a glance back.

The guy looked solid, but those eyes were sharp as a tack, revealing a crafty and calculating mind.

Two seemingly contradictory traits, yet they gelled together just fine on him.

Curiosity piqued, Seraphina couldn’t help but ask Leandro, “Whos this Patrick dude? I’ve never heard of him before”

“He’s a nobody,” Leandro shrugged.

Seraphina rolled her eyes. In Leandro’s world, hardly anyone mattered.

With that thought, she stopped asking Leandro.

The next day, Leandro was back in the grind at work, while Seraphina got back in the swing of things with her art exhibition.

At noon, Sandra, who had stood her up the day before, came by

Seraphina was in the thick of cataloging all the artworks, looking focused, feeling busy but fulfilled.

The gallery was still closed to the public, with only staff coming and going, so there were no restrictions. Sandra watched Seraphina from the open doorway for a while before Seraphina noticed her. After a quick glance, she rolled her eyes again.

Only then did Sandra walk in and take a seat across the desk.

Ignoring her, Seraphina finally broke the silence after a while. “You look good, Sera.”

“Is that what you came to see? Seraphina answered while she was busy. “Of course, I’m fine. I know what I’m doing.”

Sandra paused before saying, “He’s going to break up with Tania”

Seraphina looked up at her, “What, did he get jealous seeing you with another man? Fall for you for real?”

Sandra bit her lip. Sometimes, people just need a little push”

“Do you trust him?”

“Leandro deserves a second chance from you too, Sandra sald, “Why cant trust him?”

After a moment of silence, Seraphina chuckled, then said, “Sandra, we’re not the same.”

“What’s the difference?” Sandra asked

“Leandro can’t hurt me anymore,” Seraphina replied, “But you, he might hurt you, hurt you real bad.”

“You… Are you saying, you and Leandro… Sandra seemed to struggle with her words.

“It’s not about me and him.” Seraphina interrupted and said slowly, “I just want to know, do you still trust this Bowen guy?”

Sandra nodded slowly but firmly.

“Alright then,” Seraphina said, “Even though I’m not brave enough for love, I still enjoy seeing others chase it and get good results.”

Hearing this, Sandra looked visibly relieved and finally smiled, “So you’re supporting me?” “Does my support really matter to you?” Seraphina propped her chin on her hand and looked at her, “We’re all individuals. As long as you’re not breaking any laws or ethics, you’re free to make any choices”

“Even though I’m independent, your support means a lot to me, Sandra said

Seraphina looked into her eyes for a while, and finally, they both burst into laughter.

In the following days, Seraphina threw herself into the preparations for the exhibition.

On Christmas Eve, the exhibition opened as planned.

Leandro did what he promised Seraphina, and all the famous artists Seraphina wanted to invite, the owners of the auction, and many other big names were there to cut the ribbon for the opening ceremony Leandro, who has always been busy, also attended in person, and for a moment, the exhibition became very famous Throughout the holiday, there was a constant stream of visitors to the Carney Gallery, and all the reception staff were busy

Among all the visitors, only Magdalen was noticeably absent

Seraphina thought about it, but didn’t pay much attention
