Chapter 122

Leandro looked at her and slowly reached out his hand, patting her head gently

Seraphina seemed soothed by the warmth of his palm, she quieted down but still remained in his arms

Just when Leandro thought she’d fallen asleep, she suddenly lifted her head, her gaze burning into him. Why are you so indifferent about Vivian? Or perhaps, you’ve always hated me, and everything you’ve done was just to get back at me?

Leandro looked at her His eyes were deep and calm showing no signs of disturbance

Seraphina started mumbling to herself again. No, that’s not right. You don’t hate me at all. You don’t hate me.

But she later realized that this was just a man’s way of treating a woman he didn’t dislike. He merely stood by enjoying her various attempts to please and act cute towards
