Chapter 185


Back in the day, Sandra would have never dreamed of a time when she would be sitting with Leandro, reminiscing about Seraphina


The last time Leandro tried to dig into Seraphina’s past, Sandra turned her back and walked away. But today, when she saw Leandro at Betty’s grave. there was a small flicker of doubt in her heart.


And that flicker of doubt made her sit down.


Before this, Leandro was just a cocky, manipulative jerk from a supposed “high society” background in her eyes.


But today, she saw something genuine in Leandro


Sandra wasn’t sure how much that sincerity was worth, but what if Seraphina was destined to be tangled up with this man?


The turmoil and hesitation in her heart eventually led to the release of all the grievances and injustices she had witnessed for Seraphina.


“After you kicked her out of the Reynolds family, she went to Velvetwood. I thought that by leaving the Reynolds family, she could go to her mother, which would be some sort of consolation. But when I went to see her after my exams, I barely recognized her, she was so thin. Her mother didn’t care about her, and she was still hung up on the Reynolds family and on you. She was so miserable that she couldn’t eat or sleep; she couldn’t live normally”


“It wasn’t until she found out she was pregnant that she began to regain clarity. She wanted the baby, and because the baby was the only family she had in this world, she couldn’t give her up. So she moved out of the Wilson family and lived on her own. Nobody cared about her, neither her mother nor


the Wilson family. From the moment she moved out, no one came to see her, so they had no idea she was pregnant or had a child”


“After Betty was born, she had hope, something to hold on to, and also a responsibility. So she worked hard in school, hoping to graduate as soon as possible, find a good job, and take care of herself and Betty. She was always smart, with excellent academic performance, and finished a four–year course in two and a half years, but not long after that, Betty passed away.


“I don’t know how she got through it, she hardly cried when Betty died, and her mood was calm afterward. But how could such pain be easily let go of and healed? I know she kept it all in her heart, she didn’t say it, but I know she felt she had let the child down. But I didn’t dare to say it; I was afraid that if I did, she would break down.”


“Later, she lived as a normal person, but she chose to be an investigative journalist, investigating some marginal, risky cases. She didn’t cherish life at all, and I couldn’t dissuade her. Only the hopeless would be so careless with their lives, and I was powerless.”


“I wanted her to stay away from you, but when she returned to Sunburst City, she at least had someone she cared about, her grandfather. I’m not sure if this is a good thing, because he will eventually leave her, and she will be left with nothing! To gain and then lose, such pain! And all this, it’s your fault!”


Leandro didn’t say a word.


He quietly listened to Sandra’s words and accusations without refuting them.


“Do you know why she doesn’t paint anymore?” Sandra finally asked, “Because after Velvetwood, every time she picked up a brush, she always ended up painting you! But all you gave her was endless pain! So, she doesn’t paint anymore.”


While Leandro and Sandra were talking in the cafe, Keen was waiting outside.


He understood that their conversation must be about Seraphina, which made him a bit anxious.


Not long after, Leandro walked out of the cafe.


Upon seeing this, Keen immediately went forward to open the car door for him.


Leandro got into the car, lowering his head and closing his eyes.


Keen couldn’t help but take a second look at him.


Leandro’s usually calm face showed an undeniable hint of fatigue.


Keen was stunned for a moment until the driver reminded him. He quickly got into the car, his mind heavy with thoughts.


In Sunburst City, Seraphina woke up in the afternoon.


She had slept very deeply and realized that she had slept for over ten hours.


After sitting up in bed for a moment to wake up, she picked up her phone from the bedside table. Seeing a missed call from Sandra a few hours ago, she quickly called back.


“Sera, Sandra said, “Leandro’s in Velvetwood.”


Seraphina just chuckled lightly. “Really?”


“Guess where I saw him?” Sandra said.


Where?” Seraphina asked casually as she got out of bed.


“At the cemetery.” Sandra replied, “Betty’s cemetery.”


Seraphina kept the phone to her ear, it took her a long time to reply with a soft, “Oh”



When Seraphina came downstairs, Valerio Reynolds had already finished school. He was playing with a tablet, accompanied by Conway.


Upon seeing her, Conway immediately sighed in relief, saying, “You’re finally awake”


Valeno looked at her with a natural smile on his face


Seraphina reached out and pinched his face. “What happened?”


“His homework,” Conway said, “All questions that I can’t understand, I can’t tutor him.


Valerio immediately handed his tablet to Seraphina.


Seeing this, Conway laughed and told Valerio, “You’re lucky; Seraphina was a top student, you’ll definitely be smart in the future; you won’t be any worse than your dad or Seraphina”


Hearing those words, Seraphina shot a glance at Conway, whose gaze rested on Valerio. After the words of praise, a hint of regret surfaced in his eyes. But when he turned his gaze back to Seraphina, he quickly masked that look of regret, putting on his usual calm smile again.


Nighttime fell, and Sunburst City was graced with the first snowfall of the winter.


Seraphina only noticed it had started to snow when she was about to draw the curtains and leave, alter Valerio had already fallen asleep.


This was the first snowfall of the year, and it was coming down so heavily that it was easy to predict that tomorrow the world would be engulfed in a blanket of white


Seraphina stood by the window, watching the snowfall for a while before finally drawing the curtains and turning off the light.


She softly closed the door behind her, and just as she was about to head back to her own room, she suddenly heard the familiar sound of footsteps


behind her.


Before Seraphina could even turn around, she was pulled into a tight embrace from behind.
