Tangled in his Obsession novel Chapter 21

Stepping out from the restroom, Seraphina dove right back into her pile of documents.

Seeing her like this, Sandra finally relaxed and got up to leave.

"Hey!" Seraphina suddenly called after her, "I need to invite someone to dinner at the 'Enchanted Petals Club', can you use your membership to reserve a spot for me?"

Sandra blinked, "Balch?"

Seraphina shook her head, "No, it's the infamous rogue reporter, Terrell."

Unconvinced, Sandra frowned, "What a piece of work this guy sounds like."

Upon hearing this, Seraphina chuckled lightly. "He's not some random person. He's the only journalist who ever conducted an interview with Mrs. Lawson, or Janetta, to be exact. Shortly after that interview was published, Mrs. Lawson was tragically killed. Terrell pursued the case relentlessly after her murder, being the only reporter who deeply investigated the matter. However, after concluding this investigation, he transformed from an idealistic journalist to a rogue reporter. Now, do you think this person is worthy of being treated to a meal?"

Two days later, Seraphina invited Terrell for dinner at the "Enchanted Petals Club."

When Seraphina walked into the private room, Terrell was already there, smoking and looking like he had just rolled out of bed. However, his puffy eyes widened when he saw Seraphina.

"Are you Seraphina?" Terrell asked.

Seraphina sat down with a smile, "Hello, Mr. Terrell."

"I've seen you before." Terrell leaned back in his seat, eyeing her with a grin, "You were with that Una last time... Are you in showbiz? Or trying to break into it?"

Seraphina shook her head, "No, I'm a reporter, just like you."

Terrell seemed taken aback, but soon laughed again, "A reporter? It’s such a waste for a beauty like you."

"To each their own, right?" Seraphina responded, pouring him a drink.

Terrell became noticeably defensive, "Why did you invite me to dinner?"
