When Seraphina said this, she was curled up in Leandro's lap, her gaze fixed on something far and blurry outside the window.
Leandro watched her quietly for a few seconds before suddenly reaching out and grabbing her hand.
"Even though people are hard to read, we can still find those we trust completely," Leandro said. "And that’s enough."
At these words, Seraphina turned and looked at him in silence for a few moments before bursting out laughing. "You're a lucky one, Mr. Reynolds."
"And what about you?" Leandro asked.
Seraphina tilted her head in thought and after a moment, she simply squinted her eyes and said, "Why don't you take a wild guess?"
With that, she got up from Leandro's lap and walked towards the room.
Leandro reached out to catch her, but Seraphina swiftly dodged him with a smile, gracefully retreating to her room.
After landing, Leandro rushed off to a company meeting, while Seraphina headed straight home with Valerio.
Fate has a funny way of throwing people together who you'd rather avoid.
Being a soon-to-be schoolboy, Valerio was full of questions, peppering Seraphina with them all the way home.
Seraphina managed to turn her head to get a brief rest, and her gaze fell on a sports car in the next lane.
The car she was in moved slowly forward, while the sports car roared past, but Seraphina still caught a glimpse of the driver.
It was Bowen.
She couldn’t help but stare after the car, forgetting for a moment to look away.
However, even the fastest cars have to stop at red lights, and at the next intersection, Seraphina's car caught up with the sports car, stopping almost parallel to it.
It was then that she noticed another person in the sports car with Bowen – Tania.
Seeing the car had stopped, Tania held up a piece of food to Bowen's mouth. Bowen opened his mouth to bite it, but Tania kept pulling it away. Eventually, Bowen had her pinned to the passenger seat, and the feeding turned into a kiss.
It was quite the passionate display.
Seraphina turned Valerio's head away and leaned against the car window, watching them.
It wasn't until Bowen looked satisfied and turned his head that Seraphina raised her voice slightly to greet them, "Hey!"
Hearing her, Bowen looked surprised and saw the smiling Seraphina leaning against the car window.
"Sera?" Bowen quickly started laughing, his handsome face showing no signs of awkwardness, "When did you get back?"
Everyone in Sunburst City knew about Magdalen's situation, and even if Bowen hadn't heard, he must have known she’d been away.
"Just now," Seraphina replied, waving at Tania next to Bowen. "Just got out of the airport, I didn't expect to catch you two in a lovey-dovey moment."
Seeing Seraphina, Tania may not have been too pleased. But after hearing what Seraphina said, she managed a small smile and asked, "Didn’t Leandro pick you up?"
"Oh, you know how it is," Seraphina sighed. "Once a man's married, do you really think he’s got time for you? You're in the sweet spot right now. Better cherish these moments and keep your man on a tight leash."
Hearing her say this, Bowen just gave a small smile, while Tania immediately moved closer to him. Half proudly, half teasingly, she said, "Do men really change after they get married? Then I really have to keep a close eye on you, to see if you'll change!"
Bowen just glanced at her and quickly turned back to Seraphina, saying, "I didn't want to bother you when you were away. But now that I see you're okay, I'm relieved."
"Don't worry," Seraphina said with a smile. "I'm fine, completely clear-headed, and know where I'm headed."
