Tangled in His Obsession Series

Chapter 318

Listening to her feigned casual tone, Leandro didn’t respond, just lifted his hand to gently stroke her cheek.

She tried her best to keep her expression light, even managed a slight smile when she noticed his gesture.

As she spoke, she tried to stand, but Leandro wrapped his arms around her waist, preventing her from standing up.

For some reason, when she wanted to speak her suspicions, Seraphina preferred standing alone, viewing the issue from an independent perspective.

But since Leandro wouldn’t let her stand, she paused for a moment, and then gave up on insisting.

After all sitting on him was pretty comfortable.

She leaned back slightly, resting on Leandro’s desk, and creating a bit of distance between them before she spoke, “Adelina and my dad, they probably knew each other from back in the day. They were born in the same place, and probably knew each other since childhood. Maybe they were even childhood sweethearts?”

She brought me back to Sunburst City, and she placed me in the care of the Reynolds family. It’s understandable. Any woman would struggle to face a situation like this. Later, she went to Starhaven and became a completely different person. She was taking revenge on my dad, and at the same time, venting her own anger and dissatisfaction. But she was so stupid.
