Tangled in His Obsession (Seraphina) novel Chapter 394

Chapter 394

Valerio looked up and saw him, gave him a friendly nod.

Seraphina just glanced at him, smiled slightly, then went back to studying the menu for Valerio’s favorite food.

She didn’t like to waste, she wanted Valerio to enjoy his meal, but also didn’t want to order too much. So, she studied the menu quite thoroughly.

Valerio chimed in occasionally with suggestions, making the conversation lively. Leandro, despite being the owner of the office they were in, felt like an outsider.

Once Seraphina finally decided on their dinner menu, she called for Yasmina to place the order.

When Yasmina noted what they wanted, she suddenly realized something and snuck a glance at Leandro, whispering, “What will Mr. Reynolds have?”

After ordering, Seraphina went back to reading with Valerio, completely disregarding Yasmina’s question.

Yasmina cautiously looked at the ignored Leandro, “Mr. Reynolds?”

Leandro, uninterested in food, simply told Yasmina, “You can decide.”

Sensing the awkwardness, Yasmina quickly left the office after taking the order.

Seraphina and Valerio were engrossed in their book, laughing and occasionally exchanging affectionate gestures.

Leandro sat like an invisible man on the sidelines, unable to join in.

Soon, Yasmina brought in the food. Seraphina was still engrossed with Valerio, meticulously peeling the shrimp, picking out fish bones, and removing any possible hazards from his plate.

Leandro watched, then suddenly reached out to stop Seraphina’s hand.

“Let him do it himself.” Leandro said.

“It’s just a meal, it doesn’t matter.” Seraphina replied, “He won’t be spoiled by this.”

Leandro couldn’t refute her logic. Valerio snuck a glance at him and continued eating more happily.

After the meal, Seraphina was ready to take Valerio and leave, but Valerio suggested waiting for Leandro. Seraphina agreed without hesitation. Leandro rubbed his forehead, feeling like he was the one being pitied.

When Keen came in to report on work matters, Seraphina was still engrossed in reading with Valerio. She only looked up and asked, “Is everything sorted?”

“It’s sorted. The money has been transferred to Bowen’s account, along with the reason for the transfer,” Keen replied.

Seraphina only-responded with a nod, not showing any extra emotions.

Keen had already reported this matter to Leandro, so Leandro didn’t ask further. He only asked Keen, “Have you prepared the documents I asked for?” Keen quickly responded, “They are ready.”

Keen didn’t say anything else. He went and got the documents and placed them directly in front of Seraphina.

“What is this?” Seraphina asked with confusion, flipping through the documents.

Knowing that he wasn’t capable of explaining, Keen quietly left the office.

“These are the remaining assets of your mother, returned to their rightful owner,” Leandro explained.

Seraphina was taken aback.

She recalled how she had played Leandro and how he had forced her to reveal herself by seizing most of Magdalen’s assets.

“Sign it,” Leandro said after a pause.

Seraphina flipped through the documents before her eyes lit up, “I didn’t realize my mother was this wealthy. Does this mean I’ll be rich once I receive these assets?”

“Do you want to be rich?” Leandro asked.
