Tangled in His Obsession (Seraphina)

Chapter b

Chapter 5

Seraphina chose the most luxurious private club in Sunburst City, Enchanted Petals Club, to treat Balch to a

meal.

Seraphina wore a tight dark green skirt and a pair of beautiful black heels, looking like an elf in flowers.

As a waiter led her down the club restaurant’s hallway, Seraphina’s phone started buzzing.

The hallway was a winding path with a glass floor, surrounded by lush vegetation and unusually quiet. Rarely could she see anyone. Underneath was a deep blue lake, with the moon hanging in the sky and casting a reflection on the water, creating an incredibly romantic scene.

A clear voice came through from the other end of the phone. It was Balch.

“Sorry,” he said, “some urgent work came up at the office, I’m afraid I can’t make it tonight.”

“Is that so…” Seraphina slowed her pace, let out a sigh, and looked ahead.

By the lake, a tall figure was leaning against the railing, lighting up a cigarette.

Probably he was a guest coming out of a nearby box for fresh air. He had no coat, only a simple white shirt on his back, his hands raised, silver cufflinks glistening at the cuffs. As he moved his hand, the silver cufflinks on his sleeves sparkled. A flick of the lighter lit up his clean, slender hands. The flickering flame revealed his deep.

gaze.

The lake shimmered, and the spring wind carried the dampness of the night, bringing a chill with it.

Though Seraphina was not usually bothered by the cold, and for a beauty junkie like her, the spring night breeze was nothing. But at that moment, Seraphina felt a cold shiver run down her spine, as if her blood had frozen. She couldn’t help but shiver.
