Chapter 268

Seraphina sat in the car, leaning against the window, gazing at Leandro standing under the streetlamp. She was in a daze, her mind a complete mess.

It felt like a lifetime ago that his figure was the one she yearned for day and night.

Back then, Sandra was the only one who shared this longing with her.

But now, she no longer had this longing, nor did she have Sandra in this world.

Slowly, Seraphina began to come back to her senses.

Through the car window, she watched as Leandro stood still, looking at her for a long time. He watched her expression change from empty to clear before he slowly approached her.

Seraphina watched him come closer but made no move to greet him.

Not until Leandro opened the car door, bent down slightly, and reached out to touch her face.

Her face was warm and soft, but it bore traces of tears.

Leandro gently traced her eyes with his finger, then asked softly, “Shall we go home?”

Seraphina slowly lowered her head and asked only one question, “Where is she?”

“Bowen took her away,” Leandro replied. “She’s not here.”

Seraphina took a deep breath.

No one would.

Seraphina slowly closed her eyes, but tears started to fall uncontrollably.
