Chapter 289

In a tender moment, Leandro couldn’t help but sigh inwardly.

All night, he had been a jumble of emotions. Feeling empty yet anxious, he realized he had been waiting for this moment.

Just when he thought the night was a lost cause, there she was, appearing on his bed like a guardian angel.

From provocation and soothing to now surprise, when did this woman gain total control over his emotions?

In his arms, she still looked so innocent as if he had intruded into her world uninvited.

“Leandro,” she said lazily, looking at him with gentle curiosity. “What are you doing? It’s late, shouldn’t we be sleeping?”

Should they?

Leandro reached out and gently pinched her chin. “Should we?”

Seraphina held his gaze for a moment before breaking into laughter, pushing him away, “Then I’ll take a shower first.”

As she tried to get up, Leandro pulled her back into his arms before she could even reach the edge of the bed.

Ever since Sandra’s incident, Seraphina seemed calm on the outside, but her emotions were far from settled.

Even though they tried their best to return to normal life, there was always this heavy stone weighing on their hearts, making it unbearable.

Not until last night, when a key figure in the crime group finally showed up, did they feel a bit relieved and had a chance to breathe.

They had waited for this moment for a long time.

So, their midnight intimacy was particularly intense and unrestrained.
