Tangled in his Obsession novel Chapter 222

Keeley was young and handsome, a real looker. Granted, he's done some shady stuff in the past, but he's brimming with sunshine and confidence, not a shred of insecurity or cowardice in sight.

He's always going on about how he's all about the money, but he didn't look like he's hurting for cash. At least, not with all those high-end casual outfits he's always rocking.

When Seraphina brought it up, he grinned and asked, "So, what's my price tag in your book?"

Leaning in close, Keeley whispered back, "Past worth doesn't matter. Right now, you're priceless."

He first noticed her during that kidnapping incident.

He thought his plan was thorough, but she managed to slip the kid out of the car. Then, she defended herself with a cool-headed determination that was downright impressive.

In the ensuing dilemma, she was very calm , not even batting an eyelid when he brought her food.

It wasn't because she was gullible, but because she was seriously smart.

She knew she was at their mercy and if they wanted to hurt her, they had a million ways to do it. There was no need for them to spike her food, so she was totally chill about it.

Even at the end, when he tied her to a chair and put a bomb in her hands, she kept her cool.

A woman like that, cool, smart, and drop-dead gorgeous.

He prided himself on his flawless operations, but that moment, he couldn't help but lean in and murmur a goodbye.

Today, they finally meet again.

He had thought he could only say hello and have a casual conversation with her, but to his surprise, she recognized him. At first, he was dumbfounded, a whirlwind of thoughts in his head, the most desperate of which was to protect himself by eliminating loose ends.

But now, looking at her bright smile, he couldn't care less about the past.

Seraphina looked at him for a moment, then asked, "You've got some nerve, aren't you scared?"
