Tangled in His Obsession (Seraphina)

Chapter 506

Seraphina pressed her lips together, a hint of amusement in her voice as she said, "I'd actually be more worried if he turned out to be just some ordinary guy."

She was fearless by nature, seemingly drawn to danger like a moth to a flame. The more treacherous the foe, the more she relished the challenge.

Even after reconnecting with Valerio, she had deliberately steered clear of some risky characters and situations, but when push came to shove, her heart still raced with excitement.

How could Leandro not understand what was going through her mind?

He reached out, his hand gently stroking her back, his voice a soft murmur, "With Simon looking out for you, Lionel wouldn't dare touch you. But remember, Simon isn't one to be trifled with either - he won't tolerate everything."

"I'm actually quite curious to see where his limits are," Seraphina replied.

Leandro fell silent, not responding immediately.

After a moment, Seraphina looked up at him again and asked, "What about you? Will you stand by me, no matter what I do?"

Leandro glanced down at her.

Continuing, Seraphina pressed, “Even if I were to, let's say, step out of line?"

After a brief pause, Leandro finally spoke, "What exactly do you think you could do that would force me to choose sides?"

"Oh, the list could be endless!" Seraphina started confidently but found herself at a loss for words. After all, Leandro, with his cool and calculated demeanor, had trusted her with Valerio from the get-go, even before he had fully grasped her current temperament. This unwavering trust was evident from the beginning. Otherwise, none of what followed would have happened.

Seraphina fell silent for a moment before asking, "What if I cheat on you?"

Leandro's reply came slowly, "Then you're welcome to try."
