Tangled in His Obsession

Chapter 261

Seraphina seemed oblivious to the subtle change on his face, turned around to order another drink, and then asked him, “Do you want a drink?”

Keeley signaled the bartender and then turned to Seraphina, “How many have you had?”

Seraphina raised an eyebrow, smiled and said, “How much do I need to drink before she’s okay?”

Keeley stared at her quietly for a moment, “Is she important to you?”

“Very important.”

“How important?”

Seraphina turned to look at him, speaking slowly, “If I knew who hurt her, I’d do anything to get revenge.”

Upon hearing this, Keeley calmly asked, “Wasn’t it an accident?”

“An accident?” Seraphina tilted her head slightly, “Every accident has its cause. She was always careful when driving, so if she had an accident, she was either distracted or met with an unexpected event. Either way, there must be a reason.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Seraphina reached over and took the drink the bartender had handed to another customer.

The original owner of the drink turned to look at her, and Seraphina smiled at him. The man quickly made a generous ‘go ahead’ gesture. Keeley once again tried to stop Seraphina, “You’re just too heartbroken to accept the truth, so you’re overthinking it.”.

“Am I?” Seraphina chuckled, returning the question.

“Or what?”

Seraphina suddenly glanced at him, “Did you forget what I do for a living?”

Keeley simply stared at her, waiting for her to continue.

“I’m a journalist. I’ve investigated countless cases, big and small. I know whether the accident was an accident or not.” Seraphina laughed lightly, her smile faint, “I won’t let anyone involved in her accident off the hook.”

“What will you do?” Keeley asked.

Seraphina took the opportunity to drink the cocktail she had swiped, then resolutely said, “I’ll get revenge.”

After saying this, she suddenly turned to look at him, “That day, you left in a hurry and I couldn’t reach you. Where did you go?”

Hearing this, Keeley slowly smiled, “You think I had something to do with your friend’s accident?”

“If you were not involved, I would not wrongfully accuse you. If you were, I would not let you off.” Seraphina said, “I will find out.” With that, Seraphina stood up, swaying slightly as she walked away.

In the crowded and noisy crowd, there were always people reaching out to help her. Seraphina always had a smile on her face, but it gradually disappeared.

She no longer needed to check the surveillance videos for evidence. At this moment, she was sure that Keeley was involved in Sandra’s accident!

As she walked out of the bar, a cold wind hit her in the face. Seraphina closed her eyes and stood still for a moment. When she opened her eyes again, Keeley had followed her..

“You’re drunk.” Keeley grabbed her hand, “I’ll take you home.”

Seraphina forcefully pulled her hand away and coldly said, “I’m fine.”

Keeley looked down at his hand and laughed, “So, you think I’m guilty?”

Seraphina slowly looked at him, saying, “I’ve said that if you’re innocent, I won’t wrong you. But now, I don’t have any leads, so I plan to start with you, okay?”

Keeley crossed his arms, looking at her with an air of nonchalance, “How do you plan to investigate?”

“Everything about you.” Seraphina said, “Your social relationships, your call records, all your whereabouts, everyone who has been around

you.”

Keeley listened, still looking at her calmly, “What can these prove?”

“Oh, they can prove a lot,” Seraphina chuckled, “You once said you didn’t know who the mastermind behind my kidnapping was, you just did the job for the money. This means you didn’t directly contact your employer, there was a middleman, your accomplice, right? And you were the executor of the case, maybe there’s a planner among you, or an organizer, or even more people. Some people, some things, always leave traces. If I thoroughly look into all your information, do you think I’ll find nothing? Whether it’s a month, a year, or

ten years, I’ll keep looking and eventually I’ll find out. Then, I’ll know who hurt her.”

During Seraphina’s speech, Keeley’s eyes gradually deepened. When she finished, he slowly regained his composure, reached out again, “You’re really drunk.”

“So what?” Seraphina said, “Drunk or not, I’ll still investigate! Didn’t you say that people should do what they want to do and live the life they want to live? Right now, this is what I want to do, this is what I’m going to do!”

Keeley suddenly took a step closer to her, his voice slightly lower, “I don’t care what you want to do, but don’t investigate the people and things behind me.”

Hearing this, Seraphina squinted at him, “Why?”

“Because it will get you killed.” Keeley’s face had completely calmed down as he seriously looked at Seraphina.

Seraphina suddenly laughed.

“What will you do?” Seraphina asked, “Like the previous kidnapping case, plan another murder and kill me quietly?”

“I’m serious.” Keeley said, “You should take my words seriously.”

Seraphina looked at him, “Will it be you who kills me? I wonder if you’ll show mercy and let me die quickly.”

Perhaps feeling pressured by her, Keeley reached out and grabbed her wrist hard, causing Seraphina to cry out in pain.

At her cry, the bodyguards who had been hiding nearby immediately appeared and quickly separated the two.

“I know you’re drunk today.” Keeley said, “But you must remember what I’ve said!”

Seraphina gave a scrutinizing look at the bodyguards in front of her, cast a slightly mocking glance at Keeley, and then said, “Do you understand now? I am Mrs. Reynolds. With my status and position, do you really have the authority to question what I want to do?” This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

Having said that, Seraphina turned on her heel and climbed into her car.

“Seraphina!”

Keeley’s hoarse voice called her name, but Seraphina simply shut the car door, blocking out all noise.

As the car smoothly pulled away, Seraphina sat with her eyes tightly closed, her expression cold. She reached up to press a hand against her forehead.

“Are we heading home?” the driver asked after they had driven for a while.

Slowly, Seraphina opened her eyes. “to the hospital.”

The hospital was eerily quiet in the dead of night. Seraphina made her way upstairs. The elevator and the corridors were deserted.

It wasn’t until she reached the door of the ICU where Sandra was that she saw another soul.

Bowen was standing quietly by the room’s window, silently watching Sandra, who lay inside.
