Chapter 138

The night Leandro returned to the apartment, Seraphina wasn’t around

Keen had brought some files over Upon seeing the situation, he immediately said, “I’m gonna call Ms. Bennett.”

After putting down the files, Keen dialed Seraphina’s number, hoping she wouldn’t be fooling around this time.

But his worst fear came true. No one picked up the call.

Keen tried three times, but still no answer. Finally, he sighed in disappointment and told Leandro, “No one’s picking up. I’ll check with Laura‘

Laura entered quickly, upon hearing them inquiring about Seraphina, she chimed in, I saw Ms. Bennett leaving today. She said she was heading back to Velvetwood”

At this, Keen immediately glanced at Leandro, tentatively asking. “No answer on her phone. Want me to head to Velvetwood and check?”

Leandro, sitting on the couch with a half–smoked cigarette in hand, simply responded, “No need.”

If she could stay put in the apartment, she wouldn’t be the Seraphina they knew how

Plus, there should be plenty waiting for her in Velvetwood.

Leandro extinguished his cigarette and moved to his bedroom.

Seeing this, Keen breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly left with Laura.
