Tangled in His Obsession (Seraphina) novel Chapter 349

Chapter 349

That morning, Leandro came into the office at ten. Late again.

Keen didn’t show up until close to eleven.

When Yasmina saw him, she perked up. “Oh boy, you’re in for it now. Showing up this late. Mr. Reynolds being late is one thing, but you showing up even later?!”

“I had stuff to deal with!” Keen shot back, then asked, “Mr. Reynolds was late today?”

Yasmina nodded, then chuckled. “Based on past experience, Mr. Reynolds is usually in a good mood when he’s late.”

“You sure?”

“Absolutely.” Yasmina said. “Haven’t you noticed the atmosphere in the office today? It’s like a breath of fresh spring air.”

Hearing this, Keen sighed. “Well, that might change once I give my report.”

With that, he turned and knocked on Leandro’s office door.

Leandro was looking over some files. Keen took a deep breath, then stepped forward. “Mr. Reynolds, I’ve got some information on Bowen.”

Without looking up, Leandro simply said, “Spill.”

“Bowen was born in the northern district of Sunburst City in 1986. His biological parents were in the construction business, then started a small real estate company. In 2002, the company went bankrupt. They were drowning in debt. They couldn’t pay it off, so they both jumped off a building. Bowen got seriously sick that year and supposedly lost his memory when he woke up. He was then adopted by the Smith family.”

Hearing this, Leandro slowly looked up. “Why did his parents’ company go bankrupt?”

Keen took a breath, then continued, “They were working on a real estate project, Avalon Palace, with the Reynolds Group at the time. But the project was halted not long after it started and didn’t resume until you took over the company.”

Of course, Leandro knew about this.

The Reynolds Group had been on the brink of collapse at that time, and many projects were halted, including Avalon Palace. When Leandro took over, he went against opposition and started with Avalon Palace. Not long after the project restarted, the government introduced a new urban plan, and the project area became a key development zone. Consequently, Avalon Palace became a landmark luxury residential area in Sunburst City, helping the Reynolds Group through a tough

time.

Before that, the initial development of the project was led by Bruce.

By evening, Leandro’s car pulled into Reynolds Vista Retreat.

The entrance hall was empty when he walked in.

Leandro was about to head upstairs when Karan came out from the kitchen area. Seeing him, she beamed. “You’re back? I was asking the kitchen to prepare your/ favorite dishes, but I wasn’t sure if you’d be eating here, so I didn’t tell your mom.”

Leandro paused, then said, “I need to talk to my dad first, then I’ll have dinner with her.”

“Oh, I’ll go tell her then!” Karan said. “She hasn’t been eating well. Seeing you might make her eat more.”

Leandro nodded, then went upstairs to Bruce’s room.

Bruce looked like he had just gotten home. He was still in his suit, sitting on the sofa, watching an old movie on TV.

Seeing Leandro, Bruce turned down the TV volume and turned to him. “You wanted to talk?”
