Chapter 424

As long as Valerio was happy, Seraphina could forget about everything else.

At that moment, Leandro also set aside everything else, focusing solely on how Seraphina and Valerio were eating.

For a moment, the three of them seemed to have returned to their old ways, sharing the food in front of them with intimacy.

Just as they were enjoying their meal, the door to the room was pushed open and Herman walked in, holding some fruit.

Seeing him, Seraphina paused, “I thought Andrea went to get the fruit. Why are you the one bringing it back?”

For some reason, Herman’s face seemed a little heavy. He paused for a moment before answering, “She had something come up, so she left.”

Upon hearing this, Seraphina acknowledged it with a nod before turning her attention back to Herman, “Is everything okay?”

“It’s fine.” Herman put the fruits on the coffee table before walking over to the bed to check on Valerio’s injury, “How are you doing? Are you okay?”

Valerio immediately put on a brave face, indicating that he was fine.

Herman laughed softly at this but soon after, his laughter faded and he seemed lost in thought.

Both Leandro and Seraphina noticed his reaction, sharing a look but not saying anything.

Herman talked with Valerio for a while, but his mind was clearly elsewhere, and he soon left again.

At that time, both Leandro and Seraphina were preoccupied and didn’t bother asking him anything.

By evening, the results of Valerio’s various tests were out, showing that apart from the injury on his hand, there were no other wounds.

Only then did Seraphina truly relax, although Valerio’s hand injury was enough to worry her for a while.
