Tangled in his Obsession novel Chapter 427

During the day, Valerio underwent a few more medical tests. Once the doctor confirmed that he was good to go, he was finally discharged from the hospital.

For Valerio, returning to the comforts of home was a relief. But Seraphina was worried, fearing that the sight of their living room would remind him of the incident that had happened just the previous day.

Before she could voice out her concerns, Leandro spoke up, "I had the house rearranged. All the furniture and decorations in the living room have been replaced."

Valerio didn't understand the implication of his words, but Seraphina did right away.

By changing the furniture and decorations, Leandro had essentially given the living room a complete makeover. This way, Valerio would be distracted by the novelty of his surroundings and not dwell on the past event that his grandma was trying to hurt him.

True enough, upon returning home, Valerio looked around the refurbished living room with curiosity.

The couch, coffee table, and carpet had all been replaced, and even the arrangement had been altered. The room bore no trace of its previous state.

Valerio settled comfortably into the couch, his eyes leisurely focused on the TV screen in front of him, seemingly unaffected by the unpleasant memories of the previous day.

Seraphina let out a sigh of relief at the sight. She then sat next to Valerio, coaxing him to call her "Mommy" once again.

Conway and the babysitter sat nearby, waiting for Valerio to speak. However, Valerio pouted, appearing rather unwilling.

"What's the matter?" Conway laughed. "Are you feeling shy in front of grandpa?"

Leandro glanced at Valerio and explained, "Not shy, he just thinks his voice isn't nice."

Upon hearing Leandro's response, Valerio shrank back a little, apparently agreeing with Leandro's explanation.

"What a silly boy," Conway said. "The more you speak, the better your voice will sound."

Valerio merely lowered his eyes in response.

"Never mind," Seraphina sighed. "No matter how many times I tell him that, it doesn't help. Let's just say that I don't have a son. He won't even call me 'Mom'... I'm heartbroken. Just leave me alone, let me wallow in my sorrow..."

As she spoke, she buried her face into the couch.

Seeing her reaction, the innocent and kind-hearted Valerio immediately became anxious. He reached out to hold Seraphina's hand, urgently calling out, "Mom, Mom..."

Hearing his voice, Conway's face broke into a wide grin.

Seraphina, on the other hand, quickly sat up and pulled Valerio into her arms. She then turned to Conway, "Grandpa, does his voice sound nice?"

"Very nice, indeed," Conway replied. "Now, call me 'grandpa'."

Valerio looked at Seraphina, and upon receiving her encouraging nod, he slowly opened his mouth and tried to speak. But the word that came out was nowhere close to 'grandpa'.

Regardless, Conway laughed happily, "Good job! With practice, you'll get better."
