Tangled in his Obsession novel Chapter 320

Terrence was a very gentleman. When Seraphina wanted to have a private chat with Magdalen, He still managed to convince Magdalen to drop her off at the restaurant with Seraphina and then he left first. As Seraphina watched Terrence left, she couldn't help thinking that Magdalen would be very happy if his last partner was such a man. Magdalen, however, was clearly not interested in speculating about what Seraphina was thinking. She just sat on the couch, looking at Seraphina with a cold gaze. "Say it as soon as you can. I think you know I don't want to see you."

Hearing this, Seraphina bowed her head slightly. After a moment, she just gave a soft laugh and said, "I'm sorry."

"What's your point?" Magdalen didn't seem to have much patience.

Seraphina picked up the gift bag beside her, took out the gemstone she had just picked from the jewelry store, opened the box, and handed it to Magdalen.

"I heard from grandpa that you plan to marry Terrence," Seraphina said. "I saw this emerald at the jewelry store and thought it would suit you, so... I'd like to give it to you as a congratulatory gift."

Magdalen glanced at the gemstone. When her gaze fell on the two roses on it, her eyes paused for a moment, but she quickly looked away.

She didn't refuse, but she didn't reach out to accept it either. She just said vaguely, "Is that all? Okay, thanks for the gift. You can leave now."

Seraphina just sat there without moving, just quietly watching her for a while, then called out, "Mom..."

"If you don't leave, I will." Magdalen suddenly stood up, ready to leave.

Seraphina gently closed her eyes, then said again, "Mom, I'm sorry."

Magdalen's footsteps paused slightly, but she just looked at her coldly.

Seraphina looked up at her, then gave a soft laugh, saying, "If I had known earlier that my existence caused you so much pain, I wouldn't have shown up in front of you after I turned ten."

Magdalen, who had been coldly watching her and waiting for her to finish her words, suddenly looked serious when Seraphina finished that sentence, her gaze falling on Seraphina's face.

"What did you say?" For the first time, Magdalen, who had maintained a cold attitude since sitting down, took the initiative to speak to her.

"I said I'm sorry," Seraphina was still smiling, but her eyes were slightly drooping. "I didn't know before, so I did a lot of things that hurt you, but now I know..."

"What do you know?" Magdalen suddenly interrupted her, her voice tinged with strictness.

Seraphina closed her mouth, took a deep breath, then looked up at her. "I know... you're not actually my mom."

As soon as her words fell, Magdalen's slap landed on her face.

After the slap, Seraphina was calm, but Magdalen was stunned.

She couldn't comprehend why she impulsively hit Seraphina.

Even though she had abandoned Seraphina long ago, even though she wanted to end this mother-daughter relationship...

But when she heard Seraphina say that sentence, she couldn't help but swing her hand.

Because she remembered the expectations and requests the man had made on his deathbed.

He told her to take good care of their daughter.

At that time, she agreed.

So now, even though she has long been desperate, given up, and showed disgust and hatred towards Seraphina, she still felt a hint of panic when she heard Seraphina say that sentence.

Because by saying that sentence, Seraphina implied that she didn't fulfill her promise, she betrayed his dying wish, she broke their promise.

Even if what Seraphina said... was the truth.
