Tangled in His Obsession (Seraphina) novel Chapter 86

Chapter 86

Herman had given the whole house a once–over, but couldn’t find any useful leads

He paused hesitantly in front of the last closed door on the second floor.

It was a room that even Seraphina hadn’t been in She looked relaxed, leaning against the hallway wall, smiling at Herman, Mr Herman, the incident happened downstairs Fidelia never came upstairs, so this room is definitely unrelated”

Hearing this, Herman turned to look at Seraphina, Ms Bennett, would you mind if we took a peek?

Seraphina shrugged. Td like to as well, but I can’t open the door.”

“Ms Bennett, since you live here, aren’t you curious about this locked room?”

“Even if I’m curious, there’s nothing I can do. After all, it’s not my house” Seraphina laughed and added, “But it’s not hard to guess what’s in there, considering the previous lady of the house is deceased‘

Hearing this, Herman lingered his gaze on her face, “Ms. Bennett, what do you know about the late Mrs. Lawson?”

“I returned home only in April, what do you think I could know?” Seraphina retorted

“In such a short time, Ms. Bennett, your relationship with Mr. Lawson has become quite intimate, how impressive”

“Not really” Seraphina said I know I am irresistible

Hearing this, Herman gave her a deep look.

Seraphina considered for a moment, then asked. “Mr. Herman, the case seems pretty clear cut. What are you still doubtful about?

Herman stood tall, his gaze fixed on Seraphina. Im just a bit puzzled, why did Fidelia choose to fight you with a knife for so long when she had a gun?”

At this, Seraphina furrowed her brows in thought, “That is indeed a question… Unfortunately, you shot Fidelia dead, so we may never know some answers we should have known.”

Hearing Seraphina’s words, Herman’s gaze darkened, lingering on her for a long time.

“Did I say something wrong? Seraphina smiled and asked

After a while. Herman finally spoke. “No, you’re absolutely right.”

Afterwards, he called over a young officer, and upon learning nothing was found, he quickly left the house.

Seraphina escorted them out, and after closing the door, she went upstairs again.

She opened Janetta’s study, which she had tidied up. It looked clean and tidy. Herman hadn’t found anything here earlier.

Seraphina walked in, sat in the chair behind the desk, leaned back and thought.

Janetta used to work in this room often. Now, her picture was still on the desk, looking at Seraphina.

Seraphina looked at her picture for a moment, and when she looked away, her gaze fell on a painting hanging on the opposite wall.

Seraphina stared at the painting for a long time, and then suddenly started laughing.

In the evening. Seraphina visited the hospital again.

Balch’s room was quiet. He was lying on his side on the bed, reading something on his tablet

When Seraphina entered, his gaze immediately fell on her

Maybe because he was lying down, he wasn’t weaning glasses Without his lenses, his eyes seemed even colder, watching her quietly

Seraphina walked over to the bed, and after a moment, took out a stack of documents from her bag and dropped them on Balch’s bed.
