Tangled in His Obsession Series

Chapter 442

Chapter 442

For a while, Seraphina had truly reveled in Leandro’s indulgence and compliance, to the extent that she had almost forgotten his cunning and ruthlessness.

He could be utterly merciless when he chose to be.

In the afternoon, Leandro had gone alone to pick up Valerio from school.

“Mom, Dad’s here,” Valerio informed her, clearly hoping to warm the frosty atmosphere.

Seraphina glowered at Valerio, making a fist as a warning, deliberately showing off the marks on her wrist left by Leandro’s tie, a silent testament to her ordeal that day.

Leandro, holding an innocent-looking Valerio close, spoke calmly, “Mom’s tired. Let her rest, so she can give you her full attention later, instead of wasting her energy elsewhere.”

At his words, Seraphina gritted her teeth and shot Leandro another glare.

He met her fiery gaze with a raised eyebrow, as if to challenge her disapproval.
