Tangled in His Obsession (Seraphina)

Chapter 218

Leandro dropped his black coat as he walked in, answering at the same time, “Just got back from Reynolds Vista Retreat.”

From Reynolds Vista Retreat?” Seraphina spun around to follow him, “You know grandpa doesn’t like hearing or seeing certain things about that place, why didn’t you come back with him?”

Karan, who was in the kitchen, heard their conversation and came out to ask Leandro if he needed anything to eat. Leandro waved him off and as he was about to head upstairs, responded to Seraphina, “Grandpa’s going to stay at Reynolds Vista Retreat for a while.”

“What?” Seraphina quickly grabbed Leandro’s arm, “Grandpa’s old, he can’t handle all that stress. Do you really think he can be happy there? What if he gets upset again and ends up in the hospital?”

Leandro paused, turning around to look at her, “Grandpa’s been through a lot, he’s not as frail as you think.”

Just as Seraphina was about to say something, Karan interrupted, “Sera, let Leandro go rest, look at him, he’s beat.”

Seraphina then looked closely at Leandro’s face. He was always full of energy, like a never-tiring superman, but now, his eyes were a bit red, clearly he was really tired.

Seraphina was silent for a moment, then asked, “Have you been up for two days straight?”

Considering Gloria’s erratic mood these past two days, he’d been busy with work during the day and taking care of Gloria at Reynolds Vista Retreat at night, it was no wonder he was exhausted.

“Yep.” Leandro responded.

“Then I’ll leave you alone. Seraphina said, “Go take a shower, then get some rest”

She walked Leandro upstairs, saw him to the second floor, then dashed downstairs to call Conway on her cell phone.

Conway picked up quickly

Hearing his calm and steady voice, Seraphina felt slightly relieved, but she still complained about his sudden return to Reynolds Vista Retreat

“Don’t worry, I’m fine.” Conway said, “I may be old, but in this family, besides you, who dares to neglect me? Even Gloria wouldn’t dare. If I’m here, she’ll consider my feelings a bit more, and her own mood will be more stable.”
