Tangled in His Obsession (Seraphina)

Chapter 211

An old case, dormant for months, suddenly got stirred up by the appearance of a key player. The situation felt kinda delicate

Seraphina Bennett held her breath for a moment before finally managing to say, “You did show up a little late Patrick Gray chuckled softly, “Actually, I saw your report the moment it was published, it’s just that… I was just too busy to come.”

Seraphina paused for a moment before probing, “Were you two… close?”

At this, Patrick glanced at her, seeming to see curiosity in her eyes. He didn’t seem to mind, just smiled slightly and said, “We’ve known each other for a long time. She relied on me quite a bit.”

“Were you ever officially a couple?”

“No,” Patrick replied, “I know what she wants, but my own situation is complicated, and I don’t want to involve her in my life. She eventually married Balch Lawson… I knew she wasnt happy, but I never thought her dependence on me would be her downfall.”

There was a deep sense of regret and loss in Patrick 5 eyes as he said this.

“Relationships are always a complex beast, not so easily summed up! Seraphina tried to comfort him, quickly changing the subject, “You mentioned your life being complicated. How so?”

Patrick looked at her, a grin slowly spreading across his face, A journalist’s instinct, is it? I thought you were done with journalism,”

Seraphina shrugged, “Just making small talk. You don’t have to answer if you don’t want to.”

Patrick didnt respond, instead he pulled out a business card holder from his pocket and handed a card to Seraphina.

She looked at the card, it read the Chairman of SpectrumMedia Innovations.
