Chapter 240
“Mrs. Reynolds, I’ve told you everything I know about Mr. Reynolds and Ms. Magnolia” Keen realized
he had no more cards up his sleeve and decided to come clean, “Actually, after Mr. Reynolds
sponsored Ms. Magnolia’s overseas trip, they haven’t been in touch. I mean, you know better than
anyone how Mr. Reynolds treats you, so you really shouldn’t doubt him.”
Hearing this, Seraphina gave a snort of laughter and settled back into her chair without uttering a word.
Keen stood there awkward, not knowing what to say next
Seraphina sat quietly for a moment, her face gradually softered after some pondering.
Just as Keen was wrestling with what to do, Seraphina suddenly said. “Hand me the tickets.”
He immediately looked at Seraphina, hesitated for a moment, then put the two tickets back on the
table, looking at her uncertainly, unsure of what she was thinking
Seraphina took the tickets, stared at them for a while before saying, “You’re right, nobody knows better
than me how Leandro treats me. I really shouldn’t get mad at him because of a stranger…
Keen was taken aback by her words.
Did she change her attitude too quickly?
“Alright.” Seraphina continued, “You can go now, no need to tell him about this.”
Keen frowned, thinking. This was a big deal Could I really not tell Leandro?”
While he was still wavering, Seraphina said again, I will talk to him about it later. Dont worry, I trust you
now I won’t be mad at your boss again. He won! be wronged.”
After saying that, Seraphina gave him a small smile.

and this situation had only added to his headaches.
Seraphinu said she would talk to Leandro herself. It was their business after all, and as an outsider, he
really had no place speaking out
Besides, Seraphina was the kind of woman who gave him a headache just being around her. Now that
everything was out in the open, there was no need for him to stick around.
Leaving as quickly as possible was a huge relief for Keen.
After Keen left, Seraphina looked at the two prime concert tickets in her hand, a pleased expression on
her face.
When Leandro got home that night, Seraphina was taking a bath in her room
As Leandro entered the room and heard the sound of running water, he decided to change his clothes
in his own room first.
Just as he was about to turn and leave, he noticed two things on Seraphina’s vanity He walked over,
picked them up and found they were tickets – the title “Sunburst Magical Melodies Concert’ stood out in
bold.
Leandro was about to put them down when Seraphina came out of the bathroom, towel drying her hair.
“You’re back”” Seeing him, Seraphina asked calmly, then noting the tickets in his hand, she said, “I ran
into Ms. Magnolia in the studio today, she gave me these tickets and invited us to her concert”
Leandro just responded nonchalantly and casually put the tickets back where they were.
“I looked her up online, she’s really talented. Seraphina said, “She went to Austria six years ago to
study under a famous teacher, and in just a few years, she’s been able to come back and hold her own
concert, that’s really something”
As she spoke, she approached Leandro, “Are you free Saturday night?”
Leandro didn’t seem to care, he just said, “We’ll see.”
Seraphina, who was drying her hair, suddenly stopped. “Leandro, is this how you treat me when I invite
you to a concert for the first time?” Leandro looked down at her her eyes were pleading, and the way
she was biting her lower lip, she looked truly aggrieved.
“Are you serious? Leandro suddenly asked.
Seraphina backed up a couple of steps, “What else? It’s just a concert, what kind of game could I be
playing? Or… are you feeling guilty about something?
Leandro met her gaze. Seraphina squinted at him, “What? Is this Ms. Magnolia someone special to
you? An old flame? A blind date? Or something else?” Leandro didn’t answer her question, he just
said, “If you really want to listen, then we’ll go.”
“Why won’t you answer my question? Seraphina asked, “Ms. Magnolia is beautiful and talented, and
has a great aura as a musician. If you have something going on with her, I’d say you have good taste”
“That’s too bad.”Leandro said, ‘Seems like I don’t have good taste after all.”
As he spoke, he began to undo the buttons on his shirt
Seraphina stood behind him, suddenly realizing something. She darted to the door, leaped onto his
back and wrapped her arms around his neck. “Leandro, who are you talking about?”
Her small arms couldnt threaten Leandro at all. He could easily throw her off with a slight exertion of
strength.

legs to prevent being thrown off.
It was a move that would never appear in a formal fight, but she was a woman and didn’t play by the
rules, and she was dealing with Leandro, she didn’t need to be reasonable.
Once she clung onto him, Leandro stopped moving.
Unless he decided to fall backward and land on top of her but how could he do that to her?
Valerio heard some noise in his room. When he opened the door to check, he caught sight of
Seraphina hanging off Leandro in a weird tangled mess. It looked like they were fighting, but not quite
The three of them locked eyes for a moment, before Leandro, with Seraphina in tow, turned around and
headed back into her bedroom, slamming the door shut behind them.
Valerio pondered for a bit before silently retreating back into his room and closing the door.
That night, Seraphina was kept up by Leandro’s antics because she wasn’t being as cooperative as the
night before, resulting in both of them burning
more energy.
Leandro seemed to have sensed something and it wasn’t until the very end that he leaned against
Seraphina’s forehead and slowly said, “I’ve only met her once. I have nothing to do with her.”
What?
Seraphina was already exhausted, but upon hearing this, she suddenly opened her eyes and shot him
a look.
So, while he was in bed with her, he’d been thinking about another woman this whole time?
Seraphina couldn’t help but scoff inwardly, but she just closed her eyes and tiredly replied, “I got it.”
Leandro gently lowered his head to look at her as she turned her back to him, and the moment her
eyes closed, she was out like a light.
