Chapter 316

Seraphina slowly woke up, sitting quietly on her bed for a while, gathering her thoughts.

Events of the last couple of days played out in her head, forming a clear narrative.

After sitting for a while, she finally got up from the bed.

Upon hearing this, Seraphina glanced at Leandro before asking, “Is it complicated?”

Conway shook his head.
