Chapter 288

The night was already deep and doing anything was a bit of a hassle. On top of that, Herman needed some time to calm down and get over the shock while Seraphina had some things to figure out. So, it was destined to be a sleepless night.

By the time Seraphina and Leandro got back to Reynolds Vista Retreat, Conway and Valerio were already asleep.

Sleeping was the last thing on Seraphina’s mind. She headed straight to the study after getting home.

Leandro had a lot on his plate today and only now could he snatch some time to get things done. With the study already occupied by Seraphina, he had no choice but to work in his bedroom.

But not even an hour in, Seraphina barged in.

She first pushed the door open, peeked inside, and seeing Leandro on the phone, she hesitated.

Clearly, she wasn’t here to sleep. Leandro put down his phone and looked at her, “What’s up?”

Seraphina then walked over and plopped down in his lap, “You still working?”

“Yep,” Leandro answered.

Seraphina glanced at his muted phone, the screen showing Keen’s name.

She frowned a bit, then asked, “Is this work super important? Does it have to be done tonight?”

Leandro could tell something was up and looked at her with a teasing smile, “What do you want?”

Seraphina immediately pointed at his phone, “I want this guy on your phone.”

Leandro had said before that she could always turn to Keen for anything. Indeed, Keen was quite reliable, handling whatever Seraphina gave him quickly and efficiently.

Apart from being a bit too honest, Keen was a great assistant.

But tonight, she’d been trying to call Keen, but his line was busy all the time. After more than half an hour, she still couldn’t get through.

Naturally, she thought of Leandro. Sure enough, he was on the phone with Keen.
