Tangled in His Obsession (Seraphina) novel Chapter 27

Chapter 27

Despite the recent happenings, Seraphina kept her cool and even managed to flash a smile at Terrell after sitting down.

Terrell, however, wasn’t in the mood for smiles. He glared at Seraphina, asking. “Why did you really invite me to dinner?”

Seraphina couldn’t help but laugh, “Didn’t we just talk about this? Why are you asking again?”

Second, regardless of why Balch didn’t speak to Terrell, it was clear he harbored some resentment towards him.

Lastly, Terrell feared Balch. His words, “I didn’t mean to show up in front of you,” indicated he had concerns or had received some kind of threat.

It was clear that Terrell was someone worth getting to know better.
