Tangled in His Obsession Series

Chapter 140

Chapter 140

His relationship with Seraphina might be confusing to those around them, but it was crystal clear between them.

She might have tried to erase all their past, but when she found out he was behind her return to Sunburst City, the memories flooded back.

She probably still hated him. She hated him for treating her like a booty call. With her character now, she’d definitely want to get back at him.

He knew what to expect, so he just watched before..

Her flirtatiousness, her come-ons, her deliberate indulgence, her feigned hurt… he saw it all, and even if he played along sometimes, he wouldn’t get too hooked

Now, she started playing hide and seek.

Alright then, he’ll play along.

Las Vegas was miles away from Moonhaven. Keen had the means but felt stretched thin, let alone Leandro who didn’t have the means at all, so he hired a few private detective agencies to look for Seraphina

However, they came up empty after half a month.

Keen was at his wit’s end every day with no news from Seraphina, while Leandro was business as usual, working when he should, resting when he should, seemingly unbothered.

But Keen still noticed something was off.

Keen didn’t know why until one day a senior came to talk to him “Mr. Keen, have you noticed Mr. Reynolds has been working very hard lately?”

Keen was taken aback, “Not really”

In fact, he had been with Leandro for years and was used to Leandro’s do–it–yourself style, devoting most of his time outside of his breaks to work. So he didn’t feel anything special. The other person was almost angry at his answer, pointing at his eye bags in complaint: “We’ve been working overtime for a week! This is just too harsh!”
