Chapter 418

After a pause, Seraphina finally withdrew her hand gently. She said in a low voice, “It’s getting late, you should sleep too. It took a while for Valerio to doze off, let’s not wake him.”

Having said that, she slowly closed her eyes.

Leandro still sat by the bed, quietly watching Seraphina and Valerio for a long time before finally leaving their room.

Back in his own room, Leandro didn’t prepare for bed. Instead, he loosened his shirt collar, sat down by the window, and lit himself a cigar.

Today was not only a day when Valerio got frightened by Gloria but also a day when Glorla’s emotions were greatly affected by seeing Seraphina and Valerio.

Gloria had been emotionally unstable for a long time, especially after two attempted overdoses and self-harm incidents. Her emotional state was extremely fragile,

Her friends naturally knew about Gloria’s situation. They often accompanied her to distract her from her thoughts, especially after Leandro had asked them to.

Gloria had been depressed in her marriage to Bruce Reynolds. Apart from Leandro’s company, her friends’ companionship did help lift her spirits.

But no one expected that she would run into Seraphina and Valerio today. For Gloria, the existence of Seraphina reminded her of Magdalen, the woman she’d despised half her life.

Bruce had many women, but none of them held a place in his heart like Magdalen. He had loved Magdalen all his life, but he never had her, even when she died for Carney.

Because of this, Magdalen held an eternal place in Bruce’s heart.

Even though Seraphina was not Magdalen’s biological daughter, her existence reminded Gloria time and time again about the kind of woman Magdalen was.

Such a reminder was enough to disturb Gloria’s emotions, let alone the addition of Valerio.

Gloria didn’t like Valerio, despite him being Leandro’s biological son and her own grandson.

The reason was simple. Valerio, of unknown origin, only reminded her of Bruce’s illegitimate sons.
