Tangled in his Obsession novel Chapter 311

On the way home, Leandro held Seraphina close, apologizing and admitting his mistakes all the way.

It reminded her of the time she first returned to Sunburst City last year. Back then, Leandro would never have said these things.

But now, he was actually apologizing.

It all happened so suddenly that Seraphina didn't know what to do. She just let him hold and kiss her, remaining silent.

When the car stopped at Reynolds Manor, Seraphina suddenly broke free from his arms, pushed the car door open and ran out.

By the time Leandro entered the house, Seraphina was sitting in front of Conway, showing her wrist to him and accusing, "Grandpa, Leandro hit me!"

Leandro was speechless.

Seraphina's skin was delicate and prone to leaving marks. The grip he had on her hand in the car had left a mark that was now being mistaken for evidence of domestic violence.

Conway looked at the barely visible bruise on her wrist, got up and headed upstairs, rolling his eyes at them.

"Don't use me as a shield, both of you!" Conway said.

Seraphina pretended to be furious, "You cunning old man! When you convinced me to marry into this family, you didn't say it would be like this!"

Conway stopped on the stairs and turned to look at her, "You're a part of the Reynolds family now, what do I need to worry about?"

"You're a bad man!" Seraphina said, "No wonder your grandson is so heartless, he learned it all from you!"

Conway just shrugged and headed upstairs.

Seraphina huffed in frustration.

Leandro then came over and sat down next to her, taking her hand to examine it.

Seraphina watched his actions coldly, not saying a word.

"Did I hurt you?" Leandro asked.

Seraphina huffed again, not replying.

Leandro then had Karan bring some bruise ointment, and applied it to Seraphina's wrist himself.

This was a rare sight for the usually aloof Leandro.

But as Seraphina watched his actions, she said, "Don't think this will make me forget about tonight."

"I have no intention of running from the past," Leandro said, still focused on her wrist.

Seraphina suddenly pulled her hand away.

Leandro swiftly caught her hand in his and then finally looked up at her.

"I did think of you after seeing her," Leandro admitted, "But even without her, you would eventually come back to me."

Seraphina laughed coldly, "And what makes you so sure?"

"Because no one knows me better than I do," Leandro replied.

For most people, life is about looking forward. The past will eventually pass, no matter how much pain and despair they've gone through, people always say that hope is ahead.

For him, hope seemed to only exist in the past.

He couldn't foresee the future, so he could only look back at the past to find a bright direction.

Meeting Andrea made him look back sooner.
