Tangled in His Obsession Series

Chapter 94
Hearing her last few words, Leandro seemed to perk up a tad, even throwing back a question ‘Starhaven?”
“Yeah” Seraphina replied. “I came back to investigate this case, and now that it’s over, I guess I’ll be heading back soon.
Starhaven has plenty of tasty fruits, I reckon I can afford to treat you to some, Mr. Reynolds‘
She smiled naturally, but there was no trace of the past in her eyes
Leandro remained unmoved “Not a fan of fruits”
At that, Seraphina tiptoed closer to him and asked. “Then what does Mr. Reynolds‘ interest?”
Leandro reached out to hold her face, quietly observing her
Seraphina didn’t resist, she just let him be, her smile unchanging
Her skin was smooth under his fingers, just as before Despite the years, her beauty was still distinctive
nstead of answering her question, Leandro asked, “Are you okay with this?”
With what? Seraphina was puzzled
Leaning in, Leandro said slowly, “You used to hate me, are you really okay with just leaving like this?”
Seraphina stared at him for a moment and gave a sigh after a moment of silence: “You’ve got it all wrong, Mr. Reynolds”
Leandro looked at her, waiting for her to continue
Hate was a sentiment I harbored when I was young and naive. Then I grew up and let it go Seraphina looked at him, her gaze
sincere. Mr. Reynolds, you just didn’t like me, what’s wrong with that? If there’s anyone to blame, it’s me for wishful thinking and
for being shameless Sometimes, love is the mistake, not the lack of it.”
With that. Seraphina held up the fruits in her hand and said “I was cleaning these fruits for Grandpa, he’s waiting, can you
move?”
Perhaps it was the mention of Conway Leandro watched her for a moment before finally releasing her to leave

Leandro turned to watch her leave, lighting a cigarette by the kitchen counter
So, love was the mistake, not the lack of it?
Then who was really at fault?
Seraphina stepped out with the fruits, and Conway was in the yard enjoying an opera. Seeing her, he frowned. “Why did you
leave so soon?”
Seraphina gave him a glance and asked, “What else did you expect?”
Conway just smiled and asked, “Don’t you know what your Grandpa wished for?”
“I don’t” Seraphina put down the fruit plate and said. Tve got a meeting save these fruits for a good feast with your real
grandson!”
With that. Seraphina went back to her room to grab her bag, leaving without a backward glance despite Conway’s pleas
When Leandro finished his cigarette and exted the kitchen, Seraphina was long gone
Seeing him, Conway rapped his cane and asked, “What were you doing scaring her off like that?”
Leandro replied, “She’s going back to Starhaven soon anyway, you might as well get used to it”
“What? Conway’s face fell. “She said she’s going back to Starhaven?”
Leandro didn’t reply, he only said. “I have a client to meet you rest well. Il visit when I can.”
Seemingly not hearing him, Conway kept muttering even after Leandro left, it wasn’t until his secretary Lacy came that he
stopped, “How could she just leave like that? She’s only been back for a few days; she doesn’t care me at all”
“Who are you talking about, Conway?” Lacy asked.
“Who else? Conway grumbled, “Isn’t it Seraphina? She barely spent two days with me, already plotting her return to Starhaven!”
Hearing that, Lacy couldn’t help but laugh “Ms Bennett cares so much about you, if you don’t want her to leave, shouldn’t it be a
piece of cake?”
Hearing that, Conway perked up, and after pondering for a moment, he patted Lacy’s shoulder, laughing.

Two hours later, Seraphina met Diana at a restaurant–the girlfriend of Wilbur, who was wrongfully sentenced to death because of
the Janetta case
Months ago, when Diana first appeared before her, she looked pale and haggard. But this time, Seraphina found her much
improved, she even wore makeup. Although she still looked ill, her spirits seemed much lifted.
Seeing Seraphina, she smiled and said, “Ms. Bennett”
Seeing her condition, Seraphina felt relieved “How have you been?”
“I’ve been following my family’s advice and getting active treatment. It’s still painful, but at least it puts my parents at ease.” Diana
answered with a smile, then said, “Ms Bennett. I’ve read your report, thank you”
“You don’t have to thank me Seraphina replied, “I was just doing my job”
“But in reality you helped me fulfill my wish–to clear Wilbur’s name Diana smiled, tears falling, but she was still smiling “For the
past two years, everyone’s been saying I’m mad, that I’ve been fooled. No one would believe me. Ms. Bennett, why did you
believe me?”
Seraphina paused, then slowly said, “I didn’t believe in you, I believed in Wilbur. I saw two of his photos, one with you and the
other from the court ruling. He truly loved you, so he wouldn’t lie to you, he was truly innocent, which is why he looked so
desperate when sentenced. A persons eyes are the most truthful”
Tears streamed down Diana’s face
Wilbur and her go way back, as childhood buddies. After high school, she moved away with her parents and lost touch with him.
When they bumped into each other again, she was a high school teacher, respected by all, and him, well, he was a drifter,
loafing around. She knew he wasn’t supposed to be like this–just a poor guy who gave up on himself because of the hard knocks
of life. So she doggedly pursued him, hoping to get him back on the straight and narrow When he finally plucked up the courage
to face his true self, wanting to make a change, disaster struck
He should’ve been living a normal life, as simple as that.
Tears streaming down her face, Diana suddenly laughed, wiping away her tears. “I shouldn’t cry, he can finally rest easy now. All
this time, it was just you, Ms. Bennett. Oh no, wait, there was another person. Only you two believed in me. He pointed me in the
right direction, and you helped me uncover the truth, Ms. Bennett. I can’t thank you

enough.”
Hearing this, Seraphina suddenly got curious: “Who’s the other person?”
