Tangled in his Obsession novel Chapter 403

Sandra knew in her heart who was responsible for this opportunity.

Even if it was Leandro who made the decision, he had done so for Seraphina.

So, in the end, it was because of Seraphina.

She had betrayed a friendship of over a decade, stealing Seraphina's only hope - her child - when she had nothing left. She had lied and deceived Seraphina for seven long years. So, when Seraphina chose to blame or hate her, she had no defense.

Yet, against all odds, Seraphina had given her a chance at a new life.

Unknowingly, Sandra's eyes welled up with tears once again.

Keen was just reaching her door when he saw a tear falling from her eye.

"Ms. Smith." Keen averted his gaze slightly and called out her name in a low voice.

Jolted back to reality, Sandra quickly wiped the tear from her face.

Keen then walked in, placing a stack of items in front of her - details of her new accommodation, new identification documents, a debit card, and more, all neatly organized.

Sandra held the new ID in her hand, looking at it over and over again.

Keen didn't disturb her, he simply said, "We will depart the day after tomorrow. I'll come to get you."

"Mr. Keen." Sandra called out to him just as he was about to leave.

Keen halted, turned around, and knew from just one look at her what she wanted.

She had asked him the day she arrived if she could see Seraphina.

And now, as she was about to leave, she wanted to ask the same question.

Sure enough, Sandra finally asked, "Can I see Seraphina? Even just a glimpse of her from afar would do. Is that possible?"

Keen sighed slightly.

Judging from Sandra's behavior, she truly regretted her actions and wanted Seraphina's forgiveness.

Unfortunately, this was a question Keen couldn't answer.

"Rest well and take care of yourself." That was all he said before he left.

As Sandra watched his retreating figure, her eyes flickered for a moment before finally settling into a calm gaze.

In fact, there was more than one person she wanted to see.

But that person, that person... it was better not to see.

...

The next morning.

In a room at a private club, Bowen was awakened by the continuous ringing of his phone. He finally opened his eyes.

The room was dark with the curtains drawn shut. Only the light from his phone screen on the bedside table provided a faint glow.

Bowen held his throbbing temple, a result of a hangover, and checked his phone. Seeing it was a call from his lawyer, he hung up immediately.

The room fell silent, leaving only the sound of his heartbeat and breathing.

But then, he realized there was another set of breaths overlapping with his!

Bowen quickly reached out and turned on the bedside lamp.

As the light came on, a pair of slender arms silently wrapped around his waist.

Bowen turned his head and saw Tania leaning against his shoulder, his eyes darkened instantly.
