Tangled in His Obsession Series

Chapter 456

By evening, Seraphina finally pieced together what unsettling news Leandro received from Keen.

Leandro had been hospitalized with severe injuries, and the incident involved Gloria, prompting the board of directors at Reynolds Group to hold an emergency meeting. They decided to recommend Leonard to temporarily take over as the acting CEO of Reynolds Group, ensuring the company’s continued stability and growth.

That very afternoon, Reynolds Group held a press conference to announce this shift in leadership and to outline a series of upcoming plans and major projects.

Among these new ventures, three were in collaboration with Martin Group.

The crux of the matter was that these lucrative deals had been brokered by none other than Ferne.

This meant that Ferne must have already established a solid connection with Martin Group, as there was no other explanation for such swift and significant project collaborations.

It was becoming clear, especially considering Ferne was among the first in the Reynolds family to learn of Valerio’s mother was actually Seraphina.

At the time, aside from a few individuals at the Reynolds Manor, only Bowen, Sandra and Andrea were privy to Valerio’s lineage. Bowen, in particular, was a known adversary of Leandro.

Ever since Ferne’s exile to the Bahamas-a punishment inflicted by Leandro himself-it was plausible that she harbored resentment towards him.

Although Ferne and Leandro were first cousins and their relationship had been relatively normal, being banished by him was a blow to her pride that she could not easily forgive.

Given Leandro’s supreme position within the family, the most effective way to challenge his authority would be to usurp it. It was highly likely that Bowen approached Ferne to conspire against Leandro.

Perhaps Ferne believed Bowen’s vendetta was solely against Leandro, which could explain her willingness to collaborate with him, leading to the sequence of events that followed.
