Tangled in His Obsession (Seraphina) novel Chapter 276

Chapter 276

Once again, Seraphina poured most of her energy into tracking and surveillance.

Since keeping tabs on Keeley didn’t take much of her energy, she decided to split her time equally between Maddox and Mervin.

One day she’d tail Maddox, the next she’d be hot on Mervin’s trail. If she spent the morning trailing Mervin, she’d switch to Maddox in the afternoon, not wasting a single moment.

After three days of this, Maddox was still calm, but Mervin was pretty much pushed to his limits by Seraphina’s relentless pursuit.

Even though the team had agreed to lay low and avoid seeing each other, Mervin set up a three-man meet-up three days later.

The reason for the get-together didn’t really matter. After all, Seraphina had already figured out their real identities. Any attempt to avoid each other now was just pointless.

Mervin first met up with Maddox at the university cafeteria.

Their behavior in such a public place was totally natural, just like any regular friend meeting, without drawing any attention.

“Did you buzz Keeley?” Maddox asked casually.

“Yes,” Mervin replied, “I need to know where he stands.”

As soon as the words were spoken, Keeley, dressed all in black, made his appearance in the cafeteria.

Given his youthful appearance and casual stroll around the campus, most people would probably mistake him for a student, so he didn’t draw much attention.

In the not-so-crowded cafeteria, Keeley quickly spotted Maddox and Mervin.

“Didn’t the boss say we should avoid meeting recently?” Keeley queried casually as he sat down, “What’s happening?”

Maddox remained indifferent, while Mervin gave Keeley a cold stare. “The point of avoiding each other was to lay low so that no one will find out about us. But now that woman is on my tail, she’s been following me and Mr. Maddox around for the past few days! Is there really any point in pretending we don’t know each other?”

At this, Keeley’s expression changed slightly. “She knows about you too?”

“Not just knows!” Mervin said, “She’s been following me for three days!”

“And you still called us here?” Keeley asked, “Aren’t you afraid of dragging the boss into this?”

Mervin sneered, “The boss’s identity isn’t that easy to figure out. Only the three of us are meeting today.”

“What do you want to do?” Keeley asked.

Mervin glanced at him, then at Maddox. “I suggest we deal with this woman.”

Upon hearing this, Maddox raised an eyebrow but didn’t respond.

Keeley, however, laughed, “Are you nuts, thinking of making a move at such a sensitive time?”

Mervin stared at him. “Are you worried that this isn’t the right time to act, or do you just care about that woman?”

Keeley didn’t look at him, instead turning to Maddox. “Professor, you’re the most careful among us. Do you think it’s the right time to

act?”

Maddox took a sip of his coffee, responding nonchalantly, “I always have faith in my plans.”

Keeley looked at him incredulously, then said, “And you think Seraphina is someone you can just easily deal with?”

“Is there a problem?” Mervin asked, “Remember when we dealt with a journalist once?”

Keeley gave him a scornful look. “Are the two situations the same? That journalist was a loner, easy to handle. But don’t forget, Seraphina is Leandro Reynolds’ wife. She’s always surrounded by bodyguards. Even if you manage to bypass them, are you sure you can handle Leandro’s retaliation?”

Mervin slammed the table, “I’m almost driven crazy by that woman! If necessary, I’d rather die than let her get away with it!”

Keeley glanced at him again, said nothing, and pulled out two phones from his pocket, dialing a strange number with one.

Maddox and Mervin just watched him coldly.

Once he got through, Keeley said, “I’m here with Mr. Mervin and Mr. Maddox. We have a situation and would like to hear your opinion.”

After conveying their discussion to the person on the other end, Keeley handed the phone to Maddox.

Maddox took the phone, listened for a moment, hung up, and coldly returned the phone to Keeley, then said to Mervin, “The boss doesn’t like our plan.”

Mervin’s face changed. He was about to argue, but remembering the boss’s decisive nature, he could only glare at Keeley.

Keeley chuckled, put his phone back in the pocket, and got up to leave.

It wasn’t until his figure disappeared from the doorway that Maddox lifted his head, giving him a casual glance.

Mervin slowly said, “He’s not considering our safety at all, he just can’t bear to see that woman die!”

Maddox sat quietly, and after a while, he made a comment, “He’s trapped by emotion.”
