Seraphina no longer paid attention to Tania, but immediately started the car and headed back to Una's villa.
After that round of chaos, Seraphina became even more cautious. After getting back, she surveyed the surroundings, then had Una make up an excuse to check the gate's surveillance.
What Seraphina saw was that not long after she and Tania left, Bowen's car also quietly left the neighborhood under the cover of darkness.
Through the surveillance screen, she could only clearly see the driver in the front seat, as for the passengers inside, it was impossible to see.
After Bowen's car left, Tania never returned to this neighborhood.
Seraphina sat on the couch, repeatedly watching the video of Bowen entering and leaving the neighborhood, while Una sat beside her, yawning.
“It's so late…” she mumbled while yawning, “You're like a spy... You're not planning to tail him, are you?”
Seraphina put down her phone, took a deep breath, and slowly said, “This city's so big. He's been gone for over ten minutes. How am I supposed to know where to follow him?”
Upon hearing this, Una couldn't help but laugh, “So we can take a break today, right?”
“Correct.” Seraphina gave a pat on the back of her hand, “I know you're tired, go rest. An actress needs to take care of herself.”
“Hmph.” As Una walked upstairs, she spoke with contempt, “When I was filming, I often stayed up all night. No one can beat me at pulling all-nighters.”
Yawning, she disappeared at the stairway.
Only Seraphina was left sitting on the couch. After a moment of silence, seeing that it was still dark outside, Seraphina decided to go out and take a large circle around the neighborhood.
Soon, she arrived at the villa deep within the neighborhood, the one under Tania's name.
According to the intel Una gathered, Bowen bought this villa, but it was under Tania's name. For a lady like Tania, this villa was perhaps just one of her numerous properties, so she didn't really care about it and rarely visited.
This was why Bowen chose this place as his hideout.
Now, this hiding spot had been exposed. Where would Bowen choose to hide next?
Seraphina's car quietly passed by that villa, then parked in front of Bowen's actual house.
Just like before, the house was dark, showing no signs of habitation.
Driving her car slowly, Seraphina kept her eyes on the villa in her rearview mirror after passing it.
Suddenly, Seraphina hit the brakes.
Abbot immediately became alert and turned to look at Seraphina, only to see her staring intently in the direction of the rearview mirror.
Abbot was puzzled and turned to look at the villa, but he couldn't see anything.
“Madam?” he called softly to Seraphina.
Snapping back to reality, Seraphina quickly hit the gas, leaving the area and returning to Una's villa.
As soon as she entered the house, she quickly lay down at the edge of the bed, took out a telescope, and focused on observing the villa.
She wasn't sure how much time had passed, only that for about thirty to fifty minutes, there was no movement from the villa.
Suddenly, a faint orange light appeared from a window of the villa, on a spot that was originally dark.
The light was very faint, almost indistinguishable from the orange street light reflecting on the window.
But Seraphina noticed.
The light wasn't reflecting on the window, but was coming from inside.
Perhaps the curtains weren't dark enough, or part of them wasn't fully drawn, so a bit of light leaked onto the window.
The light lasted only a short time.
It was only a few seconds before the window returned to darkness.
However, this was enough to prove a fact —
There was someone in that house.
……
For the rest of the time, Seraphina sat quietly by the window, staring at the house.
At eleven in the morning, when Una woke up, she found Seraphina still in the same position.
“My God, you didn't stay up all night, did you?” Una was surprised and moved closer to Seraphina, following her gaze to look at the house, “What's so special about that house? I thought no one lived there?”
Seraphina glanced at her and gave a slight smile, “No one's there, but perhaps there's a ghost!”
Una was startled by her words, “Don't scare me! I have to live here for a long time! I was going to make breakfast for you! Now I'm not going to do so! Starve to death for all I care!”
“Fine.” Seraphina said, “Starve me to death, then there'll be another ghost. As long as you're not scared.”
Una was so angry she lunged at her.
While the two were messing around in the room, Seraphina glanced out the window and saw something. She immediately stopped and picked up the telescope again.
