Tangled in His Obsession (Seraphina)

Chapter 127

Hearing Magdalen’s words, Leandro leaned back in his chair, silently watching this woman.

In some ways, Seraphina and Magdalen were very much alike, both sharp–tongued and smooth

talkers.

A large part of Magdalen’s willfulness was due to her appearance–she was beautiful, so men naturally

indulged her. The more

men tolerated her, the more willful she became. The harder a beauty is to conquer, the more alluring

she becomes.

Over the years, Bruce had countless women around him, but he couldn’t stop thinking about Magdalen

Leandro could probably understand why now.

“What’s up?” Magdalen saw Leandro not speaking and asked again, “Did I say something wrong?”

“You didn’t.” Leandro replied. “I was the one who made her leave the Reynolds family.”

Upon hearing that, Magdalen raised an eyebrow slightly, “You liked her, but let her go?”

Leandro said, “I didn’t expect that, despite having a mother, she’d still have to live alone after leaving”

Hearing this, Magdalen laughed and looked at him, “Are you blaming me? On what grounds? I don’t

need you to interfere with how I interact with her. And you’re the one who sent her away, yet you’re

blaming me for not taking her in. Don’t you find that a bit. ridiculous?”

Leandro slowly lifted his eyes and said, “You’re right. I have no right to blame you, so I didn’t mean it

that way. I just thought you should know that your daughter is hurt.”

“Okay, you’ve told me now.” Magdalen smiled at him, “Are you satisfied?”

In recent years, few people had treated Leandro like this. Fortunately, he had experienced such

treatment in his early years, so he could still calmly look at Magdalen, “In that case, I won’t bother you

anymore.”

With that, he stood up, put on his coat, and turned to leave.

Keen was waiting outside the hotel. Seeing Leandro come out, he was a bit surprised.

He had thought that Leandro had specifically come to see Magdalen, and they should have a lot to talk

about. He didn’t expect Leandro to come out so quickly.

The car left the hotel. Leandro sat in the back seat, quietly watching the bustling city.

In fact, he had originally planned to have a good talk with Magdalen, but after a few simple words, he

realized there was no need for the conversation.

Magdalen answered all the questions he wanted to ask in just three or five sentences. Why couldn’t

Seraphina win her mother’s love? What was her life like in Starhaven? What were her days like drifting

alone in a foreign land?.

Seeing Magdalen sitting there, he felt there was no longer a need to pursue these questions.

But he couldn’t help but think of the past again.

The old Seraphina and the Seraphina of now seemed to be separated by a deep canyon in his eyes.

He didn’t understand why the girl he knew from the past had become the strong and ruthless woman

she is now?

And at this moment, the bridge between past and present seemed to be gradually built-

Those nights, when she lay next to him, he looked at her face and occasionally wanted to ask, where

had the old Seraphina gone? And now he understood, the old Seraphina was long gone.

He had killed her with his own hands.

Even though he didn’t regret his decision, some facts were hard to swallow.

Just as Leandro left, another person appeared in front of Magdalen.

She was a bit impatient: “Can I eat in peace?”

When she looked up, she saw it was Malcom.

Magdalen paused for a moment, then waved for the waiter and had her pour Malcom a drink.

“I know, I caused you trouble today.” Magdalen picked up the wine glass and drank the wine in one

gulp. Malcom didn’t move. He looked at her for a long time before saying, “We haven’t seen each other

for many years. I didn’t expect you and Seraphina have-

ended up like this… Do you two have some deep–seated grudge?”

Magdalen shrugged lightly, “Another person just came by who wanted to discuss this. Do you want to

discuss it too?”

“Okay.” Malcom quickly skipped the topic, “Then I’ll ask something else. Why do you hate Carney?”

Hearing that name, Magdalen’s eyes faltered slightly.

“If I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes today, I would hardly believe that you even hate Carney’s

paintings… You were so close before, why is it like this now?”

Magdalen was silent for a while, grabbed the wine glass in front of him, drank it all in one gulp, and

then said, “Because he left me alone, so I hate him. Are you satisfied now?”

After hearing this, Malcom gazed at her face and fell into deep thought.

When Leandro returned to the hospital, Seraphina was no longer in the ward.

Seeing that the boss’s face was a bit off, Keen quickly turned and ran out. He was about to go find a

nurse, but unexpectedly saw Seraphina standing to the side.

“Ms. Bennett, why are you out here?” Keen rushed up to ask.

“You came just in time.” Seraphina was pale, but still looked formidable, “I want to be discharged, but

they won’t let me. Why not?” Keen looked at her in surprise, “You have a fever and acute

gastroenteritis, why are you in such a hurry to leave?”

Seraphina glared at him, “What right do you have to control me? Don’t you know the human body has a

self–healing function? These are just minor ailments. I just need to bear with it a bit and I’ll be fine.”

Keen was left speechless by her words. He turned to find Leandro, but saw that Leandro was already

approaching.

Seraphina turned her head and saw Leandro, quickly turned her gaze back, and continued to demand

to the nurse for her discharge.

“Mr. Reynolds…” Keen whispered to Leandro for instructions.

“Let her be,” Leandro said, “You go and get her discharge procedures done.”

Keen looked at Leandro with a hint of surprise. After a moment, although feeling a tad disappointed, he

had no choice but to accept the reality even the all–capable Leandro was at his wits‘ end when faced

with the complex woman, Seraphina.

–

Seraphina was sprawled on the nurse station’s desk. After a moment of silence, she turned to look at

him, a small smirk on her face, “When did Mr. Reynolds become a doctor? Since when do you get to

decide if a patient can be discharged?”

Leandro walked up to her, staring down at her, “Once you’ve set your mind on doing something, is

there anyone who can stop

you?”

Meeting his gaze, Seraphina’s eyes twinkled as she slowly started to smile, “The problem is, there are

always some annoying people who just can’t help but meddle in others‘ business!”

Looking at her, Leandro surprisingly didn’t rise to her bait, instead he turned to chat with the nurses

about her condition.

Seraphina couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow. Why the sudden change in his attitude?
