Tangled in his Obsession novel Chapter 74

Leandro has always been a puzzle to Seraphina, but she's gotten used to his frequent mood change. So, she didn’t mind, instead she started looking on her phone.

Keen, sitting on the passenger’s seat, wasn’t as chill about it.

To Keen, Leandro was pretty straightforward. He poured most of his energy into his work, smart and diligent, with high expectations. When it came to family, Leandro's care was just right—not overly interfering, nor indifferent.

So, as Leandro's assistant, Keen only has two things to deal with—one is work, the other is occasionally stuff related to the Reynolds family.

But ever since Seraphina showed up, Keen got a third thing to handle. This third thing was a real pain in the neck, even Leandro, usually as cool as a cucumber, showed foul moods frequently because of it.

The driver was focused on driving. Keen felt jumpy, the silence inside the car was suffocating.

Just then, his phone rang. Keen took out his phone, answered it in a low voice, "Hello..."

Seraphina, sitting in the back, hearing his voice as low as it can possibly be, frowned, kicked the back of his seat, "Do you have to be so quiet? Are you afraid someone is going to eat you?"

Keen had no choice but to hang up.

Seraphina seemed to lost her patience. She looked up at the driver, "Pull over."

The driver was confused. Seeing Leandro didn’t react, he slowed down and stopped.

Seraphina looked at Keen, grinned, "since sitting here is too oppressive for you, get out, I'll call you a cab."

Keen could only force a smile, "Ms. Bennett, it's late, let's not make a fuss, we're almost home."

"I'm doing this for your own good, and you aren't even grateful." Seraphina sighed.

Leandro's gaze was deep, he only ordered, "Drive."

The driver nodded, about to start the car. Seraphina said again, "Stop, I'm getting out."

Leandro turned and looked at her.

Seraphina smiled at him, grabbed her purse and got out of the car, and shut the door behind her.

The driver hesitated, stayed put.

Keen was also stunned for a moment, then said, "Mr. Reynolds, it's late, and Ms. Bennett is alone..."

"Drive." Leandro ordered, expressionless.

The car quickly started, leaving Seraphina standing alone by the road.

Although Seraphina and Leandro always seem to be at odds, Keen knows the recent work difficulties are all due to Seraphina, he quickly added, "Should I get out and accompany Ms. Bennett?"

"Let her do whatever she wants." Leandro said.

The car went quiet again, but the atmosphere felt even more tense than before.

......

Seraphina got out of the car alone, casually standing by the bustling road, stretching her stiff neck, when suddenly a van stopped beside her.

The window rolled down, and Seraphina saw Georgina sitting inside.

Georgina was smiling at her, "I remember you left with Mr. Reynolds earlier, how come I see you alone on the street now?"

Seraphina tilted her head, smiling back, "Our destinations aren't the same, so I got off halfway."

"Where are you heading?" Georgina asked, her smile friendly, "I can give you a lift."

"No need, thanks." Seraphina answered, "I plan to hit a bar for some booze, might not be the best place for a star like you."
