Tangled in his Obsession novel Chapter 195

When Seraphina finally went back to her room for a bath, Conway popped into Leandro's study.

Leandro was back at work, and didn't even look up from his papers when Conway came in.

Conway sat across from him and asked slowly, "Has Sera...forgiven you?"

Leandro paused a bit with his writing when he heard the question, and then replied, "Perhaps."

"What do you mean perhaps? You haven't asked her what she thinks?" asked Conway.

Leandro finally put down his pen and looked at Conway, "Grandpa, you should know that sometimes too much talk can make things more complicated."

Leandro knew perfectly well that the past with Seraphina wouldn't just disappear easily. Even if she really had completely forgotten about it, she was still at the very beginning of starting over.

The fact that she was willing to move forward was a surprise in itself.

He didn't want to dig deeper into the reasons behind it.

They had plenty of time, and he couldn't be asking too much of her now.

Conway was taken aback by his words and sighed, "Well, what's the plan then? The wedding preparations are still going on, and the wedding is just a few days away. Should we tell everyone to cancel? That's a big decision."

"What's the big deal?" Leandro went back to his papers. "Just a word is enough."

He always did things his own way and didn't care about social etiquette. Conway knew his personality and knew there was no point in arguing, so he just sighed.

...

The next morning, Seraphina had just woken up when her maid knocked on her door, "Sera, are you up?"

She sat up groggily and mumbled an answer.

"Your mom is here," the maid said, "You should get up and come down for breakfast."

At the sound of that, Seraphina was instantly awake.

Magdalen, who had always lived a carefree life, returned to Sunburst City with nothing after being swindled out of all her assets at Velvetwood. However, she still lived a carefree life and had gone on a trip a few days later. She had been gone for a few days and was just back now.

She got up slowly, freshened up a bit, and then went downstairs.

Magdalen was sitting with Conway at the breakfast table. Surprisingly, Leandro, who usually left before seven-thirty, was still there, watching Valerio eat breakfast.

When she saw Seraphina coming over, Leandro pulled out the chair next to him for her.

It was a natural gesture, but Magdalen couldn't help but take a second look.

Seraphina sat next to Leandro and then looked at Magdalen, giving her a small smile, "Mom, you're back?"

"Yep," Magdalen replied nonchalantly, not saying much.

A lot had happened in the less than two weeks she had been gone. For instance, it had been revealed that Seraphina had a child out of wedlock and Leandro had declared his love for her in a handwritten letter. Magdalen hadn't known about Seraphina having a child and raising that child until the child was three, and now that she knew, she didn't seem to react much or ask any questions.

Conway clearly didn't want to bring up these issues in front of Seraphina, so he didn't say anything and just chatted with Magdalen about her trip.
