Tangled in His Obsession (Seraphina)

Chapter 451

Leandro was no stranger to brushes with death, but this time, it was different.

His own mother Gloria’s knife had plunged into his flesh by accident, an unexpected betrayal that left him defenseless. His strength ebbed away as if sucked out by an invisible force, leaving him powerless and seething with an all-too-familiar sense of injustice.

He knew this feeling well, having clung to it through countless past trials. Yet, never had this burning indignation felt so acute as it did

now.

In the past, his resentment had been for his grandfather, for the Reynolds family, for the Reynolds Group. But this time, it was personal. He had risked it all for the dreams he once chased, but now, he knew he had to survive for himself.

Promises unkept, plans unexecuted, a life unenjoyed-he wasn’t ready to let go of any of it. There were people waiting for him, hoping for him, and their anticipation made him desperate to respond.

So, he had to live.

As he fought to pry his eyes open within the haze of his consciousness, he never imagined that the first thing he’d see would be Seraphina’s expressionless face by his hospital bed.

But seeing her solidified his wandering thoughts. Hearing her call him “an ugly guy” somehow grounded his heart.

When Leandro finally awoke, the hospital room buzzed with relief. Doctors came to assess his condition, nurses checked his vitals, and Seraphina listened intently to their instructions, jotting down every detail.

Leandro had sustained serious injuries and endured a major surgery, so despite his struggle to wake up, he soon drifted back into sleep.

Minutes after he fell asleep, Conway arrived. He met with Bruce outside Leandro’s room. Conway’s face was dark with worry, and Bruce, feeling guilty, didn’t dare say much. Instead, he whispered instructions to Celeste before hastily leaving the hospital.

Seraphina stepped out of the room and immediately mirrored Conway’s grim expression. “Leandro’s fine, why such a long face? If I knew you’d react like this, I wouldn’t have let Keen tell you!” Seraphina said in a calm tone.

“His vitals are stable, but he’s still weak and has fallen asleep again. You don’t need to worry.” Conway sighed again, despite the reassuring news.
