Chapter 144
Karan might think Seraphina’s behavior was a confusing. She didn’t hesitate to leave after she dumped Seraphina at the Reynolds Group.
Once at the Reynolds Group, Seraphina tried to ring up Keen, but no one answered So, she hit up the front desk.
Clearly, even if the receptionists knew her, they couldn’t let her go up to the offices for whatever reason.
Seraphina didn’t put them in a spot. She nodded, freshened up in the restroom with her luggage in tow, then sat in the lobby waiting area, quietly playing the waiting game.
Up on the 26th floor, Keen was glued to his computer screen, a look of pure confusion on his face.
Yasmina emerged from Leandro’s office, spotted Keen’s expression, and walked over. “What on earth are you watching? You look like you’ve seen a ghost.”
Upon spotting Seraphina on the screen, Yasmina was taken aback “She’s back?”
“She’s been back since last night, Keen replied
“Why haven’t you let her up?” Yasmina questioned. “Get her to the boss ASAP The atmosphere in his office has been heavier than a ton of bricks. It’s like walking into a pressure cooker every time I go in.”
Yasmina was in the dark about the drama between Leandro and Seraphina, prompting Keen to let out a helpless sigh.
Keen could empathize with Leandro. He thought Leandro’s tolerance towards Seraphina was out of left field – letting her stay at his apartment in Starhaven, tending to her illness, even tagging along for midnight snack runs. Keen speculated that Leandro’s decision to personally handle the company’s reorganization in Starhaven could be attributed to Seraphina. But Seraphina’s sudden disappearance and ruthless treatment of Leandro even had Keen feeling angry and betrayed, not to mention Leandro.
However, Leandro’s rage was because he did give a damn about Seraphina.
