Tangled in His Obsession (Seraphina)

Chapter 87

During Balch’s hospital days, the media had been buzzing non–stop. It was only when he was discharged that things started to cool down a bit. However, on the day Balch was discharged, there was still a circus at the hospital entrance between the security guards and the journalists

In the end, Balch managed to sneak out of the hospital through a secret passage, unnoticed by the horde of reporters.

Back at Urban Oasis, as he pulled up to his house, he saw Seraphina sitting on the doorstep.

It turned out she didn’t come to pick him up from the hospital, she was waiting for him at home

Balch couldn’t help but smirk as he got out of the car and helped Seraphina up “Why aren’t you inside?”

“I’ve already moved my stuff out Seraphina replied “I don’t live here anymore, it didn’t feel right to go in*

Hearing this, Balch let out a chuckle “Since when did you become so sensitive?

Seraphina shot him a glance and said. “When it comes to certain men, it’s better to be sensitive.”

“Everything you asked for, it’s all been arranged” Balch said

No sooner had he finished speaking than a few large moving trucks pulled up.

“What’s this for? Seraphina asked.

“Didn’t we agree to move?” Balch replied.

Seraphina couldn’t help but laugh at his response, she was obviously playing dumb. “I didn’t say we had to move today. You just got discharged, I’m supposed to be taking care of you”

Balch nodded “So, you’re in charge of the move today. You decide what stays and what goes ”

Balch had a mountain of work piled up during his hospital stay, so he left the moving to Seraphina. She took charge and only left the essentials and Balch’s personal items. the rest was handled by the moving company

In just half a day. Seraphina had pretty much sorted everything out

Only then did she knock on the door of Balch’s study

“How’s it going? Balch asked, looking up from his files.

“I’ve sorted out most of it,” Seraphina replied, crossing her arms. “Only two rooms left.”

Without a doubt, these two rooms were the ones he always kept locked. One was Janetta’s study, the other was something Seraphina had never seen before

Balch was silent for a moment before nodding and standing up. Tve thought about it.”

He walked to the door and led Seraphina to the two rooms.

The door to Janetta’s study was open, the furniture still in its original place, untouched.

“Whatever you did with the furniture downstairs, do the same here,” Balch said.

Then he led Seraphina to the door of the last room, entered the code, and opened the door.
