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.

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.

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