Chapter 32
That day, Leandro was being all sweet with his girlfriend while the Martin family was being super welcoming to her. Meanwhile, Seraphina was hiding in a corner, watching it all like a spectator
But in the end, she couldn’t help but get involved.
Vivian was on the balcony when she visited the Reynolds Vista Retreat, and Leandro happened to step out to take a call, leaving her alone on the balcony. That’s when Seraphina couldn’t resist stepping onto the balcony herself.
She was dying to know what kind of woman Leandro’s girl was.
Then, Vivian fell off the balcony.
The Reynolds family’s workers saw Seraphina on the balcony, so she was pegged as the culprit.
Every culprit has a motive, right?
Because of this incident, everyone in the Reynolds family knew that Seraphina had the hots for Leandro.
And because of this, Seraphina was kicked out by the Reynolds family.
In their eyes, she was a troublemaker, a young girl with too many plots and a vicious heart.
And Leandro felt the same.
In his eyes, letting her leave was an act of kindness. So, it made sense that he despised her now.
Seraphina still remembered how Leandro reacted when her feelings for him were exposed.
That night, he tightly gripped her jaw. Even now, Seraphina could vividly recall the pain from then.
“You’re really… delusional,” he told her.
“Delusional,” a word that Seraphina remembered for many years.
But does Leandro even have the right to call her delusional now?
After all, he was the one reacting.
Had he forgotten her ruthlessness, or his poor girlfriend?
Seraphina’s eyes turned playful. She watched him like a spectator waiting for his reaction.
Leandro’s expression remained unchanged when he heard Vivian Smith’s name. “Do you care about her wellbeing?” he asked.
Seraphina blinked and chuckled. “I don’t care about her, I only care about you. I wonder if Mr. Reynolds still holds the torch for Ms. Smith?”
Leandro reached out and gripped her jaw once again under her watchful gaze. Seraphina frowned as she noticed the strength in his grip. He held a cigarette between his fingers, dangerously close to her face, and exhaled a puff of smoke in her direction.
Seraphina closed her eyes, when she opened them again, her eyes were sparkling.
Since last night, Leandro’s attitude towards her seemed to have changed, though subtly, but she could feel it.
Like right now, the usually aloof Leandro, making such a bold move, was he teasing her? This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
Seraphina couldn’t help but laugh. “Mr. Reynolds, you purposely sent Valerio away, didn’t you?”
“Seraphina,” Leandro called her name in a low voice, “If I wanted to sleep with you, whether Valerio is here or not, whether Vivian is good or not, hell, even if you’re willing or not, it wouldn’t change a thing”
Seraphina paused.
She didn’t expect to hear Leandro say something like this, much less understand his true thoughts so easily.
Clearly, Leandro desired her
But this was merely physical, a male instinct that he could easily control.
He desired her, but he didn’t want her.
For a woman, this was undoubtedly a big insult.
But after a moment of eye contact with Leandro, Seraphina suddenly accepted this.
She slowly sat up from Leandro’s arms, tidied up her messy pajamas, and said with a smile, “I get it now, Mr. Reynolds‘ feelings for Ms. Smith are deep He’s been loyal to Ms. Smith all these years. Valerio is probably just an accident, right? In that case, I won’t waste my effort. Rest assured, I won’t bother
you anymore”
After saying this, she returned to her previous spot, sat down, and started eating her now cold food.
Leandro was still sitting on the sofa, not moving until he finished his last puff. He extinguished the cigarette, threw it into the trash can, and left.
