Chapter 359

The atmosphere in the living room suddenly became tense.

Bruce remained silent, not giving the woman a single glance.

As for Leandro, his gaze lingered on her for a moment when he looked at her.

He swiftly turned his head to look at Seraphina, only to find her staring at the woman, seemingly lost in thought.

A heavy feeling suddenly overwhelmed Leandro.

The woman was the first to break the silence.

She laughed awkwardly and said, “I’m sorry, I didn’t know you had guests. I’ll leave now…”

After she finished speaking, she glanced at Bruce again, but he was still deep in his own thoughts, not looking at her. When she saw Leandro’s gaze, her heart suddenly pounded, and she quickly turned around and rushed downstairs.

At this moment, Seraphina slowly approached and smiled, “Let me walk you out.”

Even though it was her first time here, and this woman was clearly more familiar with the place, Seraphina still made the offer.

The woman smiled and turned to leave.

Seraphina followed her downstairs.

When they reached the bottom, Seraphina spoke softly, “You’re Lory’s mother, right?

The woman was slightly surprised, then nodded shyly, “Do you know Lory?”

Seraphina laughed, “Yes, I’m close with Lory. Even though I haven’t met you before, I can tell Lory looks a lot like you.”

The woman smiled and said, “My name is Leda.”

“Leda,” Seraphina repeated, glancing upstairs before continuing, “You’ve been looking after him while Bruce was away, haven’t you?”
