Chapter 286

Seraphina and Leandro were still standing on the balcony, watching Herman in the room looking all flustered. Seeing this, Seraphina couldn’t help but smirk.

She shot Leandro a glance, saying, “I really thought he was reliable before, but who knew he’d just run away when trouble comes. He’s even worse than me, I can’t believe he’s a cop.”

Leandro looked at her and slowly asked, “So, you wanna be a cop now?”

“Nope,” Seraphina responded flatly.

Leandro leaned against the balcony railing, silently looking at her, waiting for her to explain.

Seraphina flopped down on the balcony, right next to him, looking out at the night, and slowly explained, “I’m reckless, I have no boundaries, their line of work isn’t for me.”

Hearing her words, Leandro paused a bit, then pulled her into his arms.

Realizing what she had just said, Seraphina raised her eyebrows nervously.

Leandro quietly looked at her, finally just calmly saying, “Could you maybe think about the consequences a little bit more in the future?” Seraphina blinked, and after a moment of silence, she obediently responded, “Alright, I’ll be more cautious.”

Leandro clearly wasn’t satisfied with this answer, but didn’t say anything else. After a pause, he asked, “If one day, you were up against me, what would you do?”

Hearing this, Seraphina slowly repeated, “I[?”

“If.”

“So, you’re just asking hypothetically, not that you’ve actually done anything illegal, right?” Seraphiná asked back.

Leandro thought for a moment, then responded, “I suppose so.”

Seraphina, hearing his uncertain tone, wasn’t sure if he was serious or pretending. She tiptoed up to look at him, then after a moment, she scoffed and said, “Either way, the answer’s the same. Leandro, if there ever comes a day when you’re in such a situation, I won’t hesitate to expose everything.”

Hearing this, Leandro didn’t seem surprised, but he asked, “No hesitation at all?”

“None.”
