Tangled in His Obsession (Seraphina)

Chapter 487

After locking eyes with Simon for a brief moment, Seraphina slowly started to speak, "You know, I think I've got a pretty good handle on what kind of man Mr. Martin is. There are certain things from the past, I reckon we both have an inkling about."

Her words were a clear insinuation; she was aware, to some extent, of the shady dealings Simon had once been involved in.

However, to her surprise, Simon just offered a slight smile before replying, "If you wish to cling to your former opinions of me, I won't force your hand. But, there's plenty of time ahead of us. If one day you decide to change your mind, I reckon I'd be pretty pleased."

With those words, Simon picked up a mini cupcake and placed it on the small plate in front of Seraphina.

It took her a moment, but eventually Seraphina picked up the cupcake and took a bite, then she remarked casually, "Well, if you've got the patience, then wait you shall."

Lunch ended in a somewhat strained mood, but luckily Simon was all for maintaining harmony, preventing the situation from spiraling downward too much.

Still, Seraphina was far from warm or cordial with him.

After the meal, Simon had to leave first, while Seraphina offered to drop Andrea back at her studio. Throughout dinner, Andrea had been quiet, but on the way back, she finally turned to Seraphina and asked, "What's on your mind?"

"What do you mean?" Seraphina responded, a bit caught off guard.

"I just feel like there's something bothering you," Andrea said. "Can't you tell me?"

Seraphina exhaled slowly and said, "I'm someone who's just faced death. What else could there be—"

Andrea paused before adding, "Leandro must be furious, right? Is he planning to go after dad?"
