Chapter 292

Seraphina didn’t utter another word. She just took a bunch of files and headed back to Reynolds Manor.

Keeley didn’t chase after her.

He already knew what he needed to know. Stopping Seraphina now would be pointless.

What he didn’t know was that upon entering the house, Seraphina walked all the way to her room before taking a deep breath and placing a hand over her chest.

“Are you okay?” A maid hearing the commotion came out from the kitchen, “Something happened?”

Pressing on her chest, Seraphina took a moment before saying, “That was close.”

Thank God the files she had were all about the thoroughly prepared arson case. If there was a single slip, and Keeley found something suspicious about the case, all her efforts these past few days would have been for nothing.

She was always lucky, thankfully.

After a sigh of relief, Seraphina quickly headed upstairs to her study.

Now that Keeley was hooked, he was bound to do some digging. She can’t afford any slack. She had to get all the documents in front of Keeley.

Seraphina stayed in her study until evening. She thought she heard Valerio coming back from school, but Valerio was always well-behaved and wouldn’t disturb her when she was in her study, so she ignored him.

At dinner time, Seraphina came downstairs to find Valerio was not at the table.

“Where’s Valerio?” She asked.

“He went straight upstairs when he got home,” the maid answered. “I just checked on him, he seems to be in the bathroom.”

Upon hearing this, Seraphina frowned.

She recalled that Leandro personally took Valerio to school this morning. Could he have done something to his own son?
