Tangled in his Obsession novel Chapter 429

This topic had been previously discussed between Seraphina and Andrea.

Andrea had sensed Seraphina’s intention to take Valerio away, so she asked her, “Do you think Valerio could bear to part from Leandro?”

“He would definitely miss him,” Seraphina replied. “But I never planned to cut off their relationship. Leandro can visit him anytime.”

Andrea remained silent for a moment before speaking again. “Valerio might not get used to it though. After all, he has grown up in a large family.”

“What large family? He used to live only with Leandro. Just the two of them and a nanny, it was a lonely existence,” Seraphina retorted.

“But he has experienced the warmth of a large family now,” Andrea added. “It would be hard for him to return to that lonely life.”

“I understand that for a child, a complete family is important,” Seraphina said. “But if a child cannot even feel safe in this so-called complete family, how can he grow up happily and healthily? In this case, what’s more important? A complete family or safety and health?”

Though Andrea had tried to consider the situation from Seraphina’s perspective, she had to agree. “Of course, safety and health are more important.”

“That’s why…” Seraphina sighed softly.

“Will Leandro agree to this?” Andrea asked.

Seraphina rubbed her forehead, “He probably won't.”

“You need to have a serious talk with him,” Andrea advised. “You are doing this for Valerio’s good. Valerio is also his child. He needs to consider his child’s life too.”

Seraphina nodded slowly.

She had initially planned to discuss this with Leandro later. After all, the incident with Gloria had just occurred and she expected everyone to be on high alert to prevent Valerio from getting hurt again.

But the arrival of the other relatives from the Reynolds family that day made Seraphina change her mind. Because Valerio was scared when he saw these people.

The large Reynolds family, if only Conway and Leandro could provide him with warmth, then the existence of this family was more of a threat than a comfort to Valerio.

In the past seven years, he had encountered too much neglect. Seraphina couldn’t imagine how much more his tender heart could bear.

As a mother, all she could do was try to heal his wounds and let him grow up like a normal child, happy and carefree. But in the Reynolds family, where he could be frightened at any time, this healing was too difficult.

Maybe a change of environment would bring about a completely different life.

Seraphina had plenty of reasons, but she didn’t know if these reasons would be enough to convince Leandro.

“I also hope that Valerio can grow up safely and happily,” Leandro said in a deep voice.

Seraphina, who had been leaning against him, couldn’t help but turn to look at him when she heard this.

Leandro’s eyes were deep, but when he said this, his tone was extremely firm and serious.

Seraphina was taken aback for a moment.

Leandro looked at her for a long time before finally speaking again, “So, you can take Valerio to Summitville.”

Seraphina’s heart contracted suddenly.

She had never mentioned this topic to Leandro before, but as soon as Leandro opened his mouth, he hit the nail on the head. Obviously, he had guessed her thoughts a long time ago, even the city she planned to go to, he had figured.

She and Valerio had lived in Summitville for a while. There were familiar people and things there, and he had been very happy there.

The harmony, warmth, and cozy vibe of the old house in Summitville were all the environment that Seraphina wanted to create for Valerio.

That place was indeed her first choice, but Leandro’s attitude still made her a bit dazed, “You… agree?”

Leandro looked at her, “Valerio is also my child. If it’s for his good, I have no reason to disagree.”

“Yes…” Seraphina murmured, “And in the coming time, you would be very busy… You wouldn’t have much time to spend with Valerio…”

She softly enumerated some reasons she had prepared in advance, but they seemed disjointed and lacking in confidence when she said them out loud.

Seeing her like this, Leandro gently reminded her, “I have already agreed.”

“I know.” Seraphina responded, then took a deep breath involuntarily before looking at him and saying, “I can bring Valerio back on weekends.”

“Okay.”

“You can also visit us when you have time.”

“Sure.”

Seraphina couldn’t think of anything else to say for a moment, so she fell silent.

Leandro then reached out to tuck a stray lock of hair behind her ear, saying softly, “When things get sorted out, bring Valerio back.”
