Tangled in His Obsession (Seraphina)

Chapter 413

With the warmth in her eyes, Leandro was frozen in place, but couldn’t help leaning in and kissing her.

Seraphina had had more than a few drinks, but she was still sober. Seeing him lean in, she quickly turned her head and ducked behind him.

Leandro, having missed his chance, showed no reaction on his face. Instead, he subtly reached out and tightly grasped her hand.

This scene, witnessed by the crowd in the dining room, was yet another testament to their relationship. For a moment, everyone seemed to have a clear understanding of Seraphina’s place in the family.

No matter how much resentment or unwillingness they felt, the truth was right in front of them.

The family feast ended around nine. The remaining activities like drinking or dancing, were left to individual interests.

Leandro’s cousins had no interest in such festivities. Led by Ferne, they left early, leaving only the older family members to sit in the garden, sipping wine and chatting.

As a mother of a school-aged child, Seraphina naturally stayed with Valerio, telling him stories about the Thanksgiving tradition.

Valerio, enthralled, begged her to tell him more and before they knew it, it was late into the night.

It wasn’t until Conway decided to go sleep that everyone started to leave. Everyone made a point to say their goodbyes to Leandro and Seraphina, their attitudes surprisingly mild.
