Chapter 262
Seraphina watched Bowen, gradually approaching him.
It was only when she was behind him that Bowen suddenly became aware of her presence, he turned his head quickly to glance at her.
Seraphina’s face was expressionless, her cold gaze fell on him, showing no signs of wavering.
After giving her a glance, Bowen quickly turned his head back, continuing to look at Sandra in the hospital room.
Seraphina scoffed, “What’s the point? Who are you putting on this broken-hearted act for now?”
After a while, Bowen finally responded, “Sera, I told you I don’t want to talk about this stuff right now.”
“So when do you want to talk?” Seraphina asked, “Are you gonna wait till she’s dead to talk?”
Hearing this, Bowen suddenly turned back, his eyes bloodshot, breathing heavily as he looked at her.
“What?” Seraphina said, “Didn’t you think she might die when you did all this? You can do it, but you don’t want me to talk about it?” This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
“I never thought things would turn out this way!” Bowen got emotional, his handsome face distorted, he looked at Seraphina, almost shouting, “If I knew she would turn out this way, if I knew…”
He didn’t finish, because when he got here, he suddenly choked up, gritting his teeth and turning his head.
Seraphina watched him, her expression unyielding.
He looked pathetic at this moment, but all she felt for him was hatred.
“Don’t tell me this was just an accident.” Seraphina said coldly.
Bowen was silent for a while before turning back to her, “What do you mean?”
“What do you think I mean?” Seraphina retorted, “Don’t you know what you’ve done to Sandra?”
Bowen stared at her for a long time, seemingly finally understanding what she meant.
“No way…” he said.
Seraphina kept her gaze on him, “No way for whom? You or Tania? Or do you think, the Martin family people wouldn’t do it?”
Bowen suddenly stepped forward, looking at Seraphina, “What have you found out? What do you know that I don’t?”
“Why should I tell you?” Seraphina scoffed, “Don’t you forget that you’re one of the suspects to me, Getting rid of a woman you’re tired of
this way, and gaining all the Smith family’s property, what a good deal, two birds with one stone, right?”
Bowen listened to her without getting angry, he just clenched his fists tightly, trying to control his breathing.
Clearly, Seraphina had angered him, but he knew such anger was pointless-he still had more important things to think about.
“As for Tania, her motive is even simpler.” Seraphina said, “Don’t think all women are fools that you can manipulate at will, she might
have found out about your relationship with Sandra a long time ago, killing her rival would be easy for her.”
“Or it could be her family who couldn’t stand her being wronged and helped her.” Seraphina said calmly, suddenly glancing at Bowen, “Of course, it’s also very likely that you guys already had an agreement and acted together.”
She kept pushing the blame on him, but Bowen didn’t defend himself.
After Seraphina finished speaking, Bowen was silent for a long time before saying, “We’ll find the answer.”
Having said this, he turned and walked out.
We?
Seraphina listened to his words, and after a long time, she just scoffed.
Did he meant that he was on her side? That he had nothing to do with it?
She stood still, until Bowen’s figure disappeared around the corner, then she slowly turned her head, looking at the person lying in the
ICU.
It had been two days since she had taken a close look at Sandra like she did now.
She was lying there, tubes inserted all over her body, pale as a ghost, lifeless.
In her memory, Sandra had never been so quiet.
She was always outspoken, speaking her mind, so to Seraphina, she always had a lot to say.
But when did she become quieter, no longer chattering, she was always holding back, and became taciturn?
Seraphina reached out, lightly touching the glass window.
She really wanted to touch her face, hold her hand, talk to her.
But she couldn’t.
In the face of life and death, she knew how powerless she was.
But she was still not willing to accept it.
She had already lost so much, and all she had was just a little… Was she going to keep losing?
“Sandra…” she said softly, her voice hoarse, the rest of the words, she couldn’t say anymore.
Seraphina leaned slightly forward, her forehead against the glass, staring intently at the person inside.
She knew that even if she didn’t say it, Sandra would understand.
Sandra had always been sympathetic to her, understanding her, she would never refuse any of her requests.
This time, she wouldn’t refuse her either.
Seraphina stood there, not knowing how long it had been, when she heard footsteps behind her again, then a warm coat was draped over her shoulders.
The coat had a familiar scent, she didn’t need to turn around to know who it was.
After a while, she finally pulled herself together, turned to look at the person behind her, “Why are you here?”
Leandro stood quietly behind her, watching her finally turn around, his eyes didn’t miss the sadness and fatigue in her eyes.
He raised his hand, gently stroking her eyebrows, slowly saying, “I’ll take you home.”
Seraphina slowly looked up, met his gaze for a moment, then slowly nodded, “Okay.”
She knew that staying here wouldn’t help, she also knew she had to hold herself together.
After answering, Seraphina turned back to look at Sandra in the hospital room one last time, then turned and left.
She quickened her pace, ready to leave quickly. At that moment, Leandro reached out and held her hand, slowing her down.
Seraphina didn’t refuse, she just remained silent all the way.
Once they got in the car, Seraphina just sat quietly in the back seat, slowly closing her eyes.
Leandro still held her hand and after a moment, he asked again, “What’s your next move? Tell me so I can back you up.”
At his words, Seraphina suddenly opened her eyes, confusion filling them.
Leandro didn’t say anything else, just waited quietly for her response.
After a while, it seemed like Seraphina finally got what he was saying. She paused for a moment and then started to chuckle.
“It’s okay,” she said. “You’ve already given me lots of support, from manpower to resources, and even Mrs. Reynolds’ identity. All these are the backup you’ve given me.”
