Tangled in His Obsession (Seraphina)

Chapter 354

Herman always thought Leandro’s feelings for Seraphina were all about unconditional giving and spoiling, truly

cherishing her from the bottom of his heart. He didn’t expect to hear about their past conflicts today, leaving him a

bit bewildered for a moment.

Andrea was even more clueless about what was going on between them. Hearing Seraphina recount her past

mental journey, she was quite shocked to imagine what Seraphina had been through.

It turned out, Leandro’s current attentiveness and care towards Seraphina might be his way of making up for her

unfortunate past.

“What did you chat with Vivian about?” Herman asked again.

What did they chat about?

Actually, they didn’t chat about anything.

Back then, she was in so much pain she could barely contain herself. Yet, she couldn’t help but sneak peeks. In the

end, she couldn’t resist showing up in front of Vivian when she was alone on the balcony.

Vivian was originally enjoying the view from the balcony. Suddenly, she heard footsteps and turned her head to see

Seraphina, which left her stunned.

In fact, she had noticed Seraphina the moment Leandro led her in.

It couldn’t be helped. Young girls always have this kind of mutual curiosity, especially when Seraphina stood on the

stairs in a red dress, looking stunning and captivating.

However, Seraphina disappeared soon after, only to reappear now.

“Hello,” Vivian said with a smile, “I’m Vivian.”

Seraphina simply looked at her quietly, her gaze fixed on her face.

In her eyes, Vivian was not exceptionally beautiful, but she was always smiling. The dimples on the corners of her

mouth made her look very cute, and her eyes were bright and lively, clearly a smart and lively girl.

In contrast, Seraphina felt like a piece of wood.

“Hello?” Seeing that she was not responding, Vivian asked again, “Who are you?”

“I…” For a moment, she even lost her voice. She struggled to say her name, “Seraphina Bennett.”

Vivian heard this, looked her up and down, and said, “You’re not a daughter of the Reynolds family, are you? I

thought you were Leandro’s sister!”

Hearing Vivian address Leandro as his name, Seraphina’s hand clenched tightly behind her back, not even noticing

that her nails were digging into her flesh.

Yes, Vivian was his girlfriend, calling him “Leandro” was only natural.

But what about her?

She didn’t even have the right to call his name.

Seeing Seraphina spacing out again, Vivian suddenly laughed, then asked, “Hey! Who the hell are you?”

Seraphina didn’t know how to answer.

Who was she?

A pitiful, confused orphan living off others’ charity, how could she say that out loud?

Seeing that Seraphina was not answering, Vivian slowly walked up to her, circled around her, and then said with a

smile, “If you won’t talk, let me guess. You’re not a daughter or relative of the Reynolds family, but you came down

from the second floor, so you might be adopted, or a temporary resident here, right?”

Upon hearing these words, Seraphina suddenly looked at her.

Vivian continued, “You’re always staring at me, on guard and sad, which means you don’t like me. But I’m

Leandro’s girlfriend, why don’t you like me? Could it be that you like Leandro?”

Upon hearing these words, Seraphina’s body stiffened, even breathing became difficult, she wanted to run away.

Vivian laughed again, then slowly said, “It seems I guessed right. But he’s my boyfriend now.”

This sentence seemed to finally awaken Seraphina, she finally understood the situation.

Leandro brought her home, introduced her to his family, she was his girlfriend.

Leandro was this woman’s boyfriend, what right did Seraphina have to stand here?

Finally, Seraphina turned around, unable to control herself, she decided to run away.

Vivian stood behind her, watching her hurriedly running away, still laughing and calling out to her, “Hey, don’t run-”

How could she not-run?

What reason did she have to stay?

She returned to her room, closed the door, and sat on the floor.

After a while, a group of people from the Reynolds family came, they broke in.

When she faced these people, her face was pale, full of fear.

“it must be her! It must be her” Nanette Reynolds said, “Look at how scared she is! She must be the one who

pushed that girl off the balcony!”

“I saw Ms. Bennett talking to Ms. Smith on the balcony…”

“Seraphina! You’re so young, how could you do such a thing?”

“So heartless!”

Г

“So malicious!”

People were accusing her left and right. Even though she couldn’t understand what they were saying, she was still

considered a criminal.

Leonard Reynolds slapped her, and Nanette strangled her neck, forcing her to confess her crime.

In the midst of being attacked by everyone, she desperately searched for Leandro’s figure. When she finally saw

him, who was standing outside the crowd with an expressionless face, glanced at her for a while, then turned and

left.

“Were you the last one with Vivian on the balcony?” Herman asked.

Seraphina shrugged, “I was when I left.”

“In that case, it might have been an accident.” The cop nearby said.

“It’s been so long, it’s hard to verify whether it was an accident or not,” Herman said, “Unless someone admits to

committing the crime…”

Seraphina lounged on the couch, casually saying, “Don’t look at me, I’m not gonna confess.”

Herman glanced at her and slowly said, “I didn’t say it was you.”

Seraphina couldn’t help but laugh, then said, “Alright, I’ve spilled all the beans. Now, it’s your turn to chase up

Leandro.”

At her words, all eyes in the room turned to her.

“You’re saying Leandro knows the real scoop?” Herman frowned slightly.

Seraphina let out a slow breath, saying, “I didn’t exactly say that. Just that Vivian is the new girlfriend he brought

home that day. Whether it’s true or false, he shouldn’t let her out of his sight for too long. I only know my own

affairs, he might know something else.”

After hearing this, Herman pondered for a while, then stood up. “I’m off then. I’ll hit you up if I need anything.”

Seraphina, lounging lazily with a pillow, waved them off.

Watching Herman and another cop leave, Andrea reached out to grip Seraphina’s hand. “You suspect Leandro

knows the truth, so why don’t you grill him?”

Seraphina turned to look at her, gave a soft laugh, and slowly said, “If this was just a fluke, he would’ve spilled the

beans eight years ago. If there’s a culprit, everyone suspected that day belongs to the Reynolds family. Even if he

knows who did it, do you think he’d sing like a canary?”
