Tangled in his Obsession novel Chapter 132

"Becoming strangers and cutting all ties may sound simple, but after Seraphina said it, she came down with a fever that lasted all night.

Leandro immediately called for a doctor to stay overnight at the apartment, and he himself was up all night.

In the early morning, Keen came to pick up Leandro for work and bumped into Laura who was delivering breakfast. After asking about the situation, Keen felt sorry for him - even though Seraphina was taken care of by the doctor and Laura all night, Leandro was up all night. There's no way it wasn't her, is there?

When Keen entered the apartment, he saw Leandro and Dr. David sitting at the dining table, having breakfast and discussing Seraphina's condition.

After listening for a while, Keen couldn't help but frown - Seraphina really had a hard life, even getting sick was more complicated than others. Despite saying that she would get better after bearing with it, she fell into a coma.

Thinking this, he glanced at Leandro's face and couldn't help but ask, "Do you want to cancel today's schedule? Anyway, the people at Alvis Ltd. are very familiar with Eric, and he should be able to handle it alone."

"No need." Leandro said.

With this brief answer, Keen immediately felt relieved - although that woman could distract the boss, at the crucial moment, the boss knows that work is still the most important.

After breakfast, Leandro gave some instructions to David and Laura, and then left.

Meanwhile, in the bedroom, Seraphina was still unconscious.

That morning, the negotiation with Alvis Ltd. went very smoothly, so much so that the executives of Alvis Ltd. personally hosted a banquet.

Although Leandro was preoccupied, he politely accepted.

The research report Keen had done played an important role in the negotiation, and seeing the negotiation go so smoothly, he was very happy and had a lively conversation with an executive from Alvis Ltd. at the dining table.

When the meal was coming to an end, an executive suddenly asked, "Doesn't the wine suit Mr. Reynolds' taste? Do you want to change the bottle?"

Following everyone's gaze, Keen looked at the wine glass in front of Leandro and found that he had hardly touched it.

"No need." Leandro said. "It’s a good wine. I'm just not used to drinking at lunch."

That was true.

Since taking over the Reynolds Group, Leandro had been strictly disciplined, holding himself to higher standards than his subordinates, and never allowed himself to drink at lunch.

Keen, who had been with him for many years, naturally knew his habits, but when he saw Leandro's fingers tapping rhythmically on the table, he suddenly remembered something.

This was one of the rare gestures that Leandro would show when he was emotional, and it was a sign that he was about to lose his patience.

But today's negotiation was going very smoothly, so what could make him lose his patience?

Keen immediately understood, stood up, and said to the people at the table, "Excuse me, I have a call to take."

He left the VIP area of the restaurant, took out his phone, and called Laura.

After the call connected, Laura gave him some good news, "Ms. Bennett has regained consciousness and her temperature has dropped a bit, she's in the bath now."

Hearing this, Keen felt a wave of relief, and after a pause, he said, "Find a chance to subtly remind her to give Mr. Reynolds a call and update him on her condition. Ask her to call him herself."

After Laura agreed and hung up, she heard Seraphina coming out of the bathroom, so she knocked on the door and entered the bedroom to find Seraphina had finished her bath.

"Ms. Bennett." Laura, not knowing how to put it subtly, said straightforwardly, "Mr. Keen asked you to call Mr. Reynolds and update him on your condition."

Hearing this, Seraphina raised an eyebrow, laid back down, and lazily replied, "Tell him I'm sick and don't have the strength to call."

Hearing this, Laura turned around and left the room.

Dr. David was still in the apartment, and when he saw Laura calling Keen again, he asked in a low voice, "Miss Laura, what exactly is the relationship between Ms. Bennett and Mr. Reynolds, do you know?"

Laura frowned and said, "I think they might be boyfriend and girlfriend? But their relationship is a bit strange, so I'm not sure."

David nodded in agreement, "I also feel that their relationship is a bit strange, not like normal friends, but it seems to be lacking the feeling of a boyfriend and girlfriend relationship..."

After hearing Laura's relay of Seraphina's words, Keen felt both angry and helpless, and when he found an opportunity, he whispered to Leandro, "I just spoke to Laura, she said Ms. Bennett is awake, so you don't need to worry too much."

Hearing this, Leandro just replied, "okay."

Meanwhile, after her bath, Seraphina laid in the freshly changed bed feeling much lighter and was about to continue sleeping when her phone rang.

Thinking it was Keen, she rolled her eyes and picked up the phone, only to see Cooper Adams' name.

"Sera?" Hearing her voice, Cooper sounded confused, "Why does your voice sound like this? Are you sick?"

"Yeah, I have a bit of a fever." Seraphina replied.

Cooper's voice immediately became tense, "Did you go to the hospital? Where are you? Are you in the apartment?"
