Tangled in His Obsession (Seraphina)

Chapter 176

After everything that happened, she was left feeling panicked and lost. In the gigantic Reynolds family,

no one was there to comfort her

A month ago, Grandpa Reynolds was rushed to the hospital for heart surgery and was yet to be

discharged, Bruce was out all day, only to come home and fight with Gloria, and the rest treated her

like she was some sort of venomous snake.

The only person she was waiting for was him, but he didn’t return until today.

She had sunk into despair after waiting for so long.

She sat behind her room door, listening to Karan nag about why he drank so much before helping him

back to his room.

After what felt like an eternity, she didn’t hear any noise. Karan must have been taking care of him.

About ten minutes later, she heard Karan leave his room and the closing of the door

The night was deep and peaceful, with Reynolds Vista Retreat so quiet it felt like no one was there.

She quietly stood behind the door. After a long while she finally opened the door walked down the long

hallway, and stood in front of Leandro’s room. She opened the door, seeing him lying on the bed after

such a long time apart. It felt like he was a stranger

The person on the bed was him, but it didnt feel like him.

He was sleeping, his brows furrowed. Although he looked the same as she remembered, she felt like

she didn’t know him anymore.

From the moment he brought Vivian home and scolded her, he was no longer the Leandro she knew.

She slowly walked to the side of the bed as if she wanted to see him clearly, but his brow furrowed, and

he suddenly sat up, vomiting on her dress. It was all booze.

He was always like this, not eating anything at parties and only drinking. Every time he got drunk, his

stomach seemed to contain nothing but alcohol. She had seen him drunk many times, so even though

he vomited all over her, she didn’t care.

After he finished throwing up, he lay back down and fell asleep again.

But she still didn’t want to leave

Tonight was all she had left. Tomorrow, she would be on a plane to Starhaven alone. They only had

tonight left.

Seraphina lifted her hand, pulled down the zipper behind her, took off the dress he had dirtied, and then

sat on the bed, quietly hugging her knees and watching him.

But she couldn’t understand. His appearance and body hadn’t changed, so why did he seem like a

different person, as if he had forgotten their past? She looked at him for a long time and finally couldn’t

resist reaching out to touch his brow.

His body temperature was the same as before, but he no longer gave her any warmth.

In the quiet of the night, she was stiff all over, her hard touching his warmth, but she still couldn’t resist

curling up in his arms.

The intimate moments from the past were joyful, but she always felt shy But now, us she voluntarily laid

in his arms, she didn’t feel shy or timid Because she knew there wouldn’t be another chance because

she knew tonight was the last time.

She was not willing to let go, she had so many grievances and pain to pour out to him, but he no longer

wanted to hear her speak.

“Leandro.” she lay on his body, couldn’t help but whisper his name.

She was on the verge of crying uncontrollably, but she held it back. She just leaned tightly on his

shoulder, calling his name over and over again, “Leandro”

She hoped he would wake up, hoped he would look at her one last time, but she was also afraid he

would wake up, afraid to hear those harsh words from him again.

But Leandro did wake up.

When she looked up again, she saw his eyes slowly open.

He was not clear headed. His eyes were hazy and empty. After a while, his gaze finally landed on her

face.

And she just lay there quietly, looking into his eyes as if waiting for the final verdict

But he suddenly reached out to touch her face, gently stroking it, just like before.

She was confused by his sudden tenderness. Her lost and helpless heart seemed to finally find a place

to rest. She couldn’t help but reach out and hug him tightly.

Then Leandro suddenly rolled over and pinned her beneath him.

Until the pain brought her back to reality.

This wasn’t right, and it shouldn’t be like this. Leandro had never been like this with her.

At that moment, she felt a chill run through her body, as if her blood had frozen

Who was she in his eyes?

Seraphina suddenly woke up from her dream.

When she opened her eyes, it was already dawn. She was the only one in the bed; she suddenly woke

up, her body covered in a cold sweat.

Seraphina slowly sat up, feeling cold all over.

The sound of water came from the bathroom. Leandro was taking a shower.

She sat on the bed for a moment, then suddenly put on her clothes, got out of bed, and walked out the

door.

In the bathroom, Leandro turned off the shower just in time to hear the bedroom door close.

He wrapped a towel around his body and walked out of the bathroom. The bedroom was already

empty; Seraphina was gone.

Leandro dried himself off, changed his clothes, and then left the room.

In the end, he found Seraphina in the outside bathroom. She was lying in the bathtub, a towel covering

her face.

Leandro walked over and removed the towel from her face.

Seraphina, who had been resting with her eyes closed, opened her eyes and gave him a slow smile

when she saw him.

“I woke up feeling a bit cold, Seraphina said, “So I decided to take a hot bath. Are you getting ready for

work?”

She was now acting as if she had completely forgotten their conversation from the night before, back to

playing the part of a content wife.

In her words, she was indifferent-whatever his attitude or stance, she didn’t care. She was still herself.

Leandro couldn’t accept this indifference. He reached out and lightly pinched her face.

Seraphina glanced at the electronic clock on the vanity and said casually, “It’s already past seven in the

morning. You should go downstairs for breakfast and get ready for work.”

The pressure from Leandro’s hand increased slightly, and he said slowly. “What’s the rush?”

Seraphina, lying bare in the clear water under his gaze, simply said, “I don’t mind indulging, but I want

to remind you that excessive indulgence can harm your body.”

“I can handle that,” Leandro replied.

At half past seven in the morning, Conway sat at the dining table, looking at an untouched breakfast.

He was a bit puzzled, “Did Leandro leave without eating breakfast?”

“Nah.” The maid answered, “He’s still upstairs! He’s usually as punctual as a clock. Not sure what’s up

with him today”

As she said this, she took the breakfast back to the kitchen.

Conway sipped his soup with a smile, not saying much.

At twenty past eight, Leandro finally came down from upstairs, an hour late.
