Chapter 150

Bruce’s conversation with Leandro didn’t end on a high note

After spending a full day with Conway Seraphina was now picking up Valerio from school.

Valerio had been feeling down all day because he didn’t see her last night. As soon as school ended and he saw Seraphina, he rushed over to her.

She smiled, patted his head, and ushered him into the car

They drove off to Leandro’s new apartment. Everything was normal, but Valerio kept glancing at Seraphina, looking a bit unsettled.

“What’s up?” Seraphina asked. “Why are you staring at me like that?”

Valerio lowered his head. After a while, he looked up at her again, his eyes still filled with unease and confusion

Valerio could sense something different about Seraphina, but he didn’t know how to express it.

After a moment of silence, he suddenly opened his backpack and rummaged inside. To Seraphina’s surprise, he pulled out a small box of chocolates and handed it to her

Seeing the chocolates, Seraphina burst out laughing “Where did you get these? Did a little girl give them to you?”

There was a flash of discomfort in Valerio’s eyes, an obvious yes.

“You’re giving me someone else’s gift, huh? You’re quite the little schemer for your age. That’s not good,” Seraphina said, taking the chocolates She opened the box, popped one into her mouth, and handed another one to Valerio.

Valerio took the chocolate and ate it, all the while watching Seraphina with careful eyes as if trying to gauge her mood.
