Tangled in His Obsession

Chapter 177

Chapter 177

Conway had finished his breakfast but was still sitting at the table, reading the newspaper. When he saw Leandro descending the stairs, a smile automatically crept onto his face

“What’s up with you today?” Conway asked, “Did you oversleep?”

Leandro sat down, sipped his coffee, and replied, “Nope.”

Conway seemed satisfied and nodded. That’s more like it. Spend more time with Sera, help her to forget the past unpleasantness”

And then Conway was about to say. This incident..”

Im on it, Leandro interrupted him before he could finish. “Too many things have happened recently. It’s unlikely to be a coincidence”

Seeing his serious face, Conway couldn’t help but frown, “You don’t need to be overly suspicious until the results are out.”

Leandro didn’t say anything. He thought of Seraphina upstairs, paused with the cutlery in his hands, and then continued to eat quietly.

When Seraphina woke up, it was already noon. She picked up her phone to see several missed calls and unread messages.

Seeing who had sent the messages, Seraphina understood why. She was more than happy to go

So, over an hour later, Seraphina met Bowen, who had been waiting for her at a restaurant downtown.

Bowen was sitting at a table by the window, learing back in his chair, his brow slightly furrowed as he looked out of the window as if he had been waiting for a long time

It wasn’t until Seraphina sat down opposite him that he turned his gaze back to her and smiled faintly, “You’re here?”

“Yes.” Seraphina replied. “I’m sorry, I overslept today and kept you waiting”

“No worries” Bowen was still smiling, Take a look at the menu. See what you want to eat

Seraphina chose a dish at random, then turned to Bowen, “You were in such a rush to meet me. What’s up?”

Bowen looked at her for a moment, then said directly, “Where’s Sandra?”

“What?” Hearing this, Seraphina raised her eyebrows slightly. “Why would you ask me where Sandra is? Isn’t she at home?”

Hearing this, Bowen slowly said, “Yes, she’s not at home. She’s missing…”

“Why aren’t you looking for her?” Seraphina asked, “Has she been kidnapped?”

Bowen looked at Seraphina quietly for a moment, then suddenly laughed, “Is this your idea?”

Seraphina seemed intent on playing dumb, “What?”

Bowen sighed helplessly, Tve known Sandra since we were kids, and you two have been best friends since childhood. We both know what she’s like. And she only has you as a close friend, Sera, don’t mess around”

As Seraphina slowly ate, she said, ‘Since you know Sandra so well, you should understand that what’s between you two isn’t really my business, right?” After hearing this. Bowen paused, seemingly

acknowledging her point in silence, then said, “Sera, I just want to know where she is. Is she sale?”

“I really don’t know” Seraphina said, “Whatever the reason for her disappearance, she ll be found for the same reason, right?”

Bowen couldn’t help but glance out the window again, then asked when he turned back. You already know, don’t you?”

Seraphina kept her head down, eating, and replied without looking up, it’s better for me not to know about these things, right?”

Bowen felt somewhat helpless and smiled, “Since you already know, as an observer, you should see more clearly that the path Sandra and I are on isn’t easy to walk…

“There’s no path in this world that’s easy to walk.” Seraphina said, “Everything is a choice we make, so we cant blame others.”

Bowen looked up at her, and after a while he nodded slowly. “You’re right.”

“So, have you decided which way to go?” Seraphina put down her cutlery, wiping her mouth with a napkin as she asked.

Bowen didn’t answer, just looked at the plate of pasta in front of her that she’d barely touched, “You’re full?”

“Yes” Seraphina replied, Im full.”

“Your appetite is really small Bowen said, The desserts here are good. Shall I order one for you?”

Seraphina Tilted her head to look at him, “Are you this attentive to all women?”

Bowen laughed. “You’re her best friend.”

“You don’t need to pay special attention to her best friend Seraphina said. “It doesn’t make you look any better.”

Bowen kept his smile and finally chuckled, “You’re really more level-headed than Sandra,”

Resting her chin in her hand, Seraphina raised her eyebrows at his comment, “I used to be crazier than her.”

Hearing this, Bowen looked at her for a moment, possibly thinking of the past he’d heard from Sandra. His expression became slightly solemn, and he asked softly, “And now?”

1 dont have much expectation for love” Seraphina answered, “But I still believe in love. I hope my friends can find happiness,”

Bowen looked at her quietly withou This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

“So, can I have dessert now?” Seraphina asked.

Bowen chuckled, “Of course.”

Seraphina turned to call the waiter over to place her order. But as she turned her head, she saw a man a few tables away who had been watching them. As she turned, the man immediately looked away

Seraphina’s gaze lingered on him for a moment. Bowen seemed to notice as well and asked quietly. That guy has been watching us. Do you know him?” Seraphina shook her head, “I don’t know him”

“He might be a reporter.” Bowen said, “After all, you and Leandro are the talk of the town.”

Hearing this, Seraphina chuckled, “He’s definitely not a reporter.”

“How do you know?” Bowen asked.

“Ever seen a journalist dressed head to toe in designer tabels? Seraphina replied, idly flipping through the menu. “A guy his age, around forty, decked out in high-end brands, he’s no ordinary reporter. He’s likely someone investigating the rich and famous…”

Upon hearing this, Bowen couldn’t help but sneak another glance at the man, then asked, “And what’s he after you for? Want me to go ask him?”

‘No need,’ Seraphina responded without looking up. “Isn’t everyone just trying to make a living?”

She picked out a dessert and then looked up at Bowen. “Don’t worry about me. Just focus on your own stuff. And if possible, stay away from me a bit. I don’t want to drag you and Sandra into this.”
