Tangled in His Obsession (Seraphina)

Chapter 6

Seraphina smiled and didn’t seem to care about the people around her, just looking intently at Ike. At first, Ike was somewhat cautious, but seeing Leandro engrossed in conversation with Ira, he gradually relaxed and began to toast Seraphina continuously.

Naturally, Ike was not about to let her drink hirn under the table without a fight. He signaled to those around them to toast Seraphina. Suddenly, members of the Whitman family were coming up to toast, making the atmosphere lively. Seraphina accepted all the toasts. Feeling she had drunk enough, she took out her phone and texted Balch: Can you send a driver to pick me up?

A few minutes later, Balach replied with a single word: OK.

Seraphina, smiling at the message and rubbing her forehead, looked up to find Leandro’s deep, calm eyes on

Before Leandro could react, Seraphina had already downed her drink.
