Tangled in his Obsession novel Chapter 185

Back in the day, Sandra would have never dreamed of a time when she would be sitting with Leandro, reminiscing about Seraphina.

The last time Leandro tried to dig into Seraphina's past, Sandra turned her back and walked away. But today, when she saw Leandro at Betty's grave, there was a small flicker of doubt in her heart.

And that flicker of doubt made her sit down.

Before this, Leandro was just a cocky, manipulative jerk from a supposed "high society" background in her eyes.

But today, she saw something genuine in Leandro.

Sandra wasn't sure how much that sincerity was worth, but what if Seraphina was destined to be tangled up with this man?

The turmoil and hesitation in her heart eventually led to the release of all the grievances and injustices she had witnessed for Seraphina.

"After you kicked her out of the Reynolds family, she went to Velvetwood. I thought that by leaving the Reynolds family, she could go to her mother, which would be some sort of consolation. But when I went to see her after my exams, I barely recognized her; she was so thin. Her mother didn't care about her, and she was still hung up on the Reynolds family and on you. She was so miserable that she couldn't eat or sleep; she couldn't live normally."

"It wasn't until she found out she was pregnant that she began to regain clarity. She wanted the baby, and because the baby was the only family she had in this world, she couldn't give her up. So she moved out of the Wilson family and lived on her own. Nobody cared about her, neither her mother nor the Wilson family. From the moment she moved out, no one came to see her, so they had no idea she was pregnant or had a child."

"After Betty was born, she had hope, something to hold on to, and also a responsibility. So she worked hard in school, hoping to graduate as soon as possible, find a good job, and take care of herself and Betty. She was always smart, with excellent academic performance, and finished a four-year course in two and a half years, but not long after that, Betty passed away."

"I don't know how she got through it; she hardly cried when Betty died, and her mood was calm afterward. But how could such pain be easily let go of and healed? I know she kept it all in her heart; she didn't say it, but I know she felt she had let the child down. But I didn't dare to say it; I was afraid that if I did, she would break down."

"Later, she lived as a normal person, but she chose to be an investigative journalist, investigating some marginal, risky cases. She didn't cherish life at all, and I couldn't dissuade her. Only the hopeless would be so careless with their lives, and I was powerless."

"I wanted her to stay away from you, but when she returned to Sunburst City, she at least had someone she cared about, her grandfather. I'm not sure if this is a good thing, because he will eventually leave her, and she will be left with nothing! To gain and then lose, such pain! And all this, it's your fault!"

Leandro didn't say a word.

He quietly listened to Sandra's words and accusations without refuting them.

"Do you know why she doesn't paint anymore?" Sandra finally asked, "Because after Velvetwood, every time she picked up a brush, she always ended up painting you! But all you gave her was endless pain! So, she doesn't paint anymore."

While Leandro and Sandra were talking in the cafe, Keen was waiting outside.

He understood that their conversation must be about Seraphina, which made him a bit anxious.

Not long after, Leandro walked out of the cafe.

Upon seeing this, Keen immediately went forward to open the car door for him.

Leandro got into the car, lowering his head and closing his eyes.

Keen couldn't help but take a second look at him.

Leandro's usually calm face showed an undeniable hint of fatigue.
