Tangled in His Obsession Series

Chapter 315

Magdalen’s face shifted, furrowing her brows at Conway, “Don’t talk like that. Look at how happy your life is now, with your grandkids and great-grandkid… If you want to see me, just give me a call and I’ll swing by. Otherwise, I won’t bother you, don’t want to get on your nerves.”

Conway chuckled and patted his chair, “Are you trying to wind me up?”

Before Magdalen could respond, the sound of footsteps echoed from the stairs. She turned to see Leandro leading Seraphina down the steps.

Seraphina, walking beside Leandro, glanced at Magdalen and quickly composed herself, striding forward with a calm demeanor.

Leandro merely nodded at Magdalen and Terrence, offering no greetings.

Given the relationship between Seraphina and Magdalen, it was difficult for Leandro to treat Magdalen like his real mother after the marriage.

Seraphina remained as obedient as ever, softly calling out, “Mom.”

Magdalen only gave a faint nod without any expression, not bothering to introduce Terrence.

Seraphina looked at Terrence and introduced herself, “Hi, I’m Seraphina.”

“Hi,” Terrence smiled and nodded, “I’m Terrence.”

“I know you,” Seraphina said, “You’re doing great in business and you’re a philanthropist.”

“I’m flattered.” Terrence replied, “How can I match Leandro in terms of success?” Seraphina shared a glance with Leandro and smiled without saying anything else.

The breakfast was a bit awkward between Seraphina and Magdalen, but thankfully, the three men dominated most of the conversation, making the atmosphere lively rather than silent.

Seraphina, however, was unusually quiet. Even Conway noticed her off mood, “Sera, are you feeling all right today?”

“No,” Seraphina replied, pausing before standing up abruptly, “Excuse me, I need to make a call. I’m gonna go up first.”

Leandro, sitting beside her, showed no reaction to her sudden move.

This wasn’t part of their original plan.

She was supposed to sit quietly at the table, waiting for the arranged nanny to bring down Jasmine’s drawing from upstairs.

But now… she seemed to be wavering.

Indeed, Seraphina was wavering.

Facing Magdalen now, she found it impossible to bring out the painting and test her reaction.
