Tangled in his Obsession novel Chapter 398

Meanwhile, Leandro was on his way to a suburban villa.

From the moment he got into the car, he had been on the phone with Starhaven, and the call didn't end until the car stopped.

The driver didn't dare to disturb him and waited quietly.

After about ten more minutes, Leandro hung up the phone, and the driver finally opened the car door for him.

Before him stood an old and somewhat worn-out vacation villa. The moment Leandro got out of the car, Keen hurried out of the house to greet him, "Mr. Reynolds."

Leandro nodded at him and turned to walk into the house.

"Our people have been watching her closely. She's not in any real danger, but she's emotionally unstable," Keen said. "The doctor is trying to examine her, but she's resisting fiercely..."

Leandro didn't comment and walked straight into the house.

In a bedroom as simple as the living room, Sandra sat on the bed, hugging her knees tightly, rejecting any contact from the doctor or anyone else.

The moment Leandro walked in, everyone looked helpless.

Keen quickly waved his hand to signal everyone to leave.

Sensing the sudden change in the atmosphere, Sandra slowly lifted her head. The moment she saw Leandro, her eyes flickered, and the next moment, she hugged herself even tighter.

Leandro didn't look at her. He walked slowly to the window, took a glance at the scenery outside, and then turned around.

There was a chair by the window. Leandro glanced at it and noticed a thin layer of dust on the seat. Keen immediately instructed someone to bring a clean chair and replace the dusty one.

Only then did Leandro sit down, looking at Sandra, "You're not accustomed to this kind of environment, are you, Ms. Smith?"

Sandra hugged herself tightly, her body stiff. It took her a while to quietly say, "Mr. Reynolds..."

Leandro looked at her calmly, "When you faced me in the past, Ms. Smith, you didn't have this attitude."

"I know I wronged you and Sera, I owe you two..." Sandra mentioned Seraphina, her eyes reddened uncontrollably, "But I truly want Sera to be happy..."

"Do you think she'd be happy if you died?" Leandro asked slowly.

Sandra hugged herself even tighter, and after a long silence, she said, "If I die, at least she won't have the burden of hating me... Hating someone is exhausting..."

"What's more important, you'd be relieved too, right?"

Tears fell from Sandra's eyes.

"Mr. Reynolds, you want to use me to get back at Bowen, don't you?" Sandra said, "If I die, he will suffer for the rest of his life. That's the best revenge you can have on him... and the best punishment for me."

Leandro just gave a faint smile at her words.

"You've known it well. After all, you've experienced death once. What are you afraid of the second time?" Leandro looked at her solemnly, "You've been considering for me and Sera. I'll fulfill your wish. It's no big deal."

That day, Leandro returned home earlier than usual.

It was the time for game time after dinner. Seraphina and Valerio were dedicatedly playing a competitive video game in front of the TV, while Conway and Karan were enthusiastically watching the fun.

When Leandro walked in, no one noticed him.

Not until the game ended with Seraphina's cheer.
