Chapter 269

When Leandro and Seraphina returned to Reynolds Manor, the living room lights were still on.

Seraphina had been quiet all along, letting Leandro lead her out of the car and into the living room.

In the living room, Valerio and Conway were sitting by the dining table, their heads close together, discussing something.

When they saw Leandro and Seraphina enter, Valerio’s eyes lit up. He quickly jumped off his chair, ran to Seraphina, and reached out to grab her hand.

Seraphina came back to her senses, looked at him, then at Conway, “You’re back.”

“Yes.” Conway answered, “I’m old, I like to stay in this house.”

Seraphina then pinched Valerio’s face, “What about you? Why are you still up so late?”

Valerio led Seraphina towards the kitchen.

The kitchen counter was covered in flour, and Valerio opened the fridge door, taking out a small plate. On the plate were a dozen or so raw egg tarts.

Seraphina paused, bent over to look at him, “Did you make these?”

Valerio nodded proudly.

Conway also came to the kitchen door, saying, “He learned how to make egg tarts from school today. He wanted to make some for you when he got home, but you came back so late, he almost fell asleep waiting.”

Valerio pouted, looking at Seraphina expectantly.

Seraphina reached out and touched his head, “I’ve had a lot of alcohol today and the wind was cold. could use some dessert. You’re so thoughtful.”

Valerio smiled shyly and happily, then handed the egg tarts to the maid.
