Tangled in his Obsession novel Chapter 347

Seraphina just dropped the one question that Tania was dying to know.

How much Bowen spent tonight wasn't what bothered her, but his attitude did.

As they were leaving, the staff delivered Bowen's purchases to the car, and Tania's gaze was glued to the ruby ring.

However, until the car left Cedarcrest Chateau and had gone some distance, Bowen still didn't say a word.

Tania had been holding it in all night, and now she couldn't take it anymore. She sharply reached out and knocked on the driver's seat, "Stop the car!"

The driver was flustered, "Ms. Martin..."

"I told you to stop!" Tania snapped, "Are you deaf?”

Left with no choice, the driver slowly pulled over.

Only then did Bowen speak, "What are you doing?"

"I didn't do anything!" Tania snapped, "I don't want to ride in your car! I'll walk back myself!”

Just as she was about to open the door, Bowen reached out and grabbed her.

"Let go of me!" Tania struggled.

Bowen turned to the driver, "You go wait outside the car for a bit."

The driver quickly got out, closing the door behind him and giving them some privacy.

Bowen turned back to Tania, "Everything was fine, why are you suddenly mad?"

Tania scoffed, "You can throw a tantrum, but I can't?"

Hearing this, Bowen sighed, "I know I was off tonight, you should've told me earlier if you were upset."

"Tell you?" Tania's eyes welled up, "Didn't you see how scary your face was! How could I dare to tell you? I didn't even dare to speak to you!"

Bowen held her in his arms and gave her a quick peck, "Was it really that scary?"

Tania shoved him away, turning her head to avoid answering.

"Then I apologize." Bowen said, "I was wrong. It won't happen again, okay?"

Tania still didn't respond after hearing this.

Bowen was silent for a moment, then sighed again, "The watch and the ruby ring, they were both Sandra's."

Hearing this, Tania quickly turned to look at him, "They were hers? Then why did you tell the reporters earlier that you didn't know who they belonged to?"

"Those items were all tied to my relationship with Sandra." Bowen said, "If I told the reporters the truth, it would be the same as letting them dig up Sandra's past. Sandra's gone now. I don't want her to be bothered by this."

Tania paused, then asked, "So, why did Seraphina have those items?"

"Can't you see that this charity auction tonight was specifically arranged by Seraphina for me?" Bowen said, "The three items she brought out were all related to Sandra, she did it to provoke me..."

Tania suddenly grabbed his sleeve, "Why?"

"Recently, Leandro and I have been competing a lot in business. The Martin Group has successfully won over many long-term partners of the Reynolds Group. Naturally, they would harbor resentment towards me." Bowen said, "This is clearly... their declaration of war against me."

Tania frowned, "Business competitions are common, how could they use such methods to influence you?"

After hearing this, Bowen leaned down and kissed her again. This time, Tania didn't avoid him.

"They did influence me a bit." he said, "That's why you got dragged into this... I'm sorry, can you forgive me?"
