Tangled in his Obsession novel Chapter 47

Even though Seraphina was a real head-turner, Balch was still head over heels for her.

That evening, Balch personally dropped by the new house Seraphina picked out.

Seraphina was busy planning how to fill up the empty house. Balch didn't interrupt her. Instead, he strolled around the house before asking, "Why'd you pick this place?"

"I heard the surroundings are top-notch!" Seraphina glanced at him, "Don't you like it here?"

Balch simply smirked, "As long as you're happy with it."

Seraphina shot him a look and chuckled, "Of course, it's my house, so I don't need to consider your preferences."

Balch caught her double entendre and asked with a smile, "What do you mean by that?"

Seraphina, flipping through a furniture catalogue, didn't even look up when she replied, "You're not planning on moving, so I get the final say on the house."

"The house was meant for you." Balch said, "Of course you get the final say."

Suddenly, Seraphina slammed shut the catalogue, tossed it aside, and looked around the spacious house, "I think the house is too big. How about you move in with me? Wanna?"

Balch just stared at her, the smile never leaving his face.

"Say something!" Seraphina demanded.

Balch adjusted his glasses and replied, "What do you want me to say? You didn't really mean to invite me."

"Like you're one to talk." Seraphina retorted, "Does giving me a house makes you sincere?"

Balch didn't respond.

"Forget it, this is pointless." Seraphina stood up, "We haven't known each other for long. I shouldn't ask too much. Take me home."

With that, she grabbed her purse and walked out the door.

Balch, being a gentleman, didn't argue and drove her home as she requested.

When they arrived at Seraphina's apartment, she was about to step out of the car when she spotted a figure. Immediately, she plopped back into her seat, visibly irritated.

Following her gaze, Balch saw Karan.
