Chapter 331

Leandro arrived and left in a hurry. He suddenly showed up, ate a meal, sat down for a while, and stayed only several hours in total, before leaving in a hurry to return to Sunburst City. Valerio probably thought Leandro would stick around with him and Seraphina. So when he found out Leandro was leaving, he was unhappy, his face dull and reluctant.

Seeing this, Seraphina gave him a nudge, hinting, “do you miss your dad? Then go back with him!” Valerio was pushed out by her for two steps, then suddenly returned, clutching Seraphina’s thigh. Leandro was used to this sort of scene, he glanced at Seraphina, gave Valerio’s head a pat and said in a low voice, “Behave yourself, okay? Stay with your mom.”

Valerio immediately nodded obediently. Seraphina was slightly surprised by his words, it reminded her of something Carney had told her before he left…

She zoned out for a moment until Leandro leaned in and gave her a light kiss.

That snapped Seraphina back to her senses. After a small smile, she waved goodbye to Leandro.

Only then did Leandro get in his car, heading for the airport.

No sooner had Leandro left than a few little girls who had a thing for Valerio came over to play with him.

Seeing this, Seraphina couldn’t resist taking out her phone and snapping a picture, then she sent it to Leandro with a caption, “Your boy’s all grown up, got swept off his feet by little girls.”

Leandro, in the car, couldn’t help but laugh when he saw the message.

Keen, sitting in the front, was about to remind Leandro about their hectic flight schedule. But as he turned around and saw the look on Leandro’s face as he stared at his phone screen, he changed his

mind.

They’ve been swamped with work at the Reynolds Group lately, Leandro hadn’t had a good rest for days. He specially flew to Summitville just to catch a glimpse of Seraphina in his spare hours.

To Keen, this seemed like a total waste.

But now, Keen changed his mind.

After all, Seraphina, who he just saw, was in a much better state than when she was in Sunburst City. She seemed to be glowing from the inside out.

And right now, after taking a glimpse at Seraphina, Leandro, to everyone’s surprise, even cracked a smile.

In that case, it was worth it.

Not long after Leandro left, Seraphina and Valerio had new guests.

That day, when Seraphina and Valerio returned from their tennis lesson, Valerio was all sweaty and kept trying to hug Seraphina. She kept ducking away from him. The two of them walked into their yard laughing, only to find someone sitting on the swing under the tree.

Andrea looked at Seraphina and Valerio walking in, and smiled faintly, “You’re back?”

Seraphina wasn’t expecting to see her here. She asked with a smile, “What brings you here?”

“I’ve been planning to visit you.” Andrea stood up, went over to Seraphina, patted Valerio’s head gently, and said, “But your husband had someone tell me not to show my face around you for now, so I didn’t come until today.”

Seraphina paused a little after hearing this.

Ever since Magdalen died, Leandro had put her in this yard where she wouldn’t be disturbed by outsiders, which indirectly kept the troublesome people and things in Sunburst City from bothering her.

Leandro seemed to think that Andrea’s existence was also a part of Seraphina’s worries, so he specifically told Andrea not to bother Seraphina when she was feeling down.

Although Seraphina felt he might be over-worrying, she accepted his intentions.

“You could call me.” Seraphina said to Andrea, “Don’t listen to him.”

Andrea sighed, “I wouldn’t dare. I’m afraid he’d lock me up in a dark room and cut off all my contacts.”

“He wouldn’t dare do that.” Seraphina replied. Then she turned to Valerio, “This is Miss Andrea. You should greet her.”

Valerio looked at Andrea seriously after hearing that, then nodded his head.

Seeing this, Andrea couldn’t help but laugh, “This kid really listens to you.”

“Of course, I’m a strict mother, right?” Seraphina replied.

Hearing this, Valerio immediately furrowed his brows and shook his head, clearly disagreeing.

Seeing this, Andrea couldn’t help but laugh.

Valerio was drenched in sweat. Seraphina told him to take a bath first, then she went back to the room to find Andrea.

Andrea was sitting on a small sofa in the room. When she saw Seraphina coming back, she asked, “Is this where you lived when you were young?”

Seraphina nodded, “I lived here until I was ten.”

Hearing this, Andrea paused for a moment, then asked, “Sera, are you still sad?”

Hearing this, Seraphina smiled faintly, “I might have regrets, but I’m not sad. What I’ve been unable to let go of all these years, what my mother couldn’t let go of, We’ve finally let go today. So, this outcome…is actually pretty good.”

Andrea had been worried about Seraphina. But seeing her current state and hearing her answer, Andrea finally felt relieved.

‘Actually, people around me have been leaving me one after another.” Seraphina said, “Only my mother’s departure this time, I feel it’s a completion.”

Life’s like that, you lose some, you gain some. Andrea said, “You still have me, and Leandro.”

Seraphina listened, went silent for a bit, then looked at Andrea, giving a small smile. “I lost my best friend once, and at that time, I always felt that there was no one in the world that I could talk to. But now I’ve got you, and I’m actually very happy.”

Hearing this, Andrea also cracked a smile, responding, “Me too.”

The two held each other’s gaze for a while, then Andrea suddenly asked, “What about Leandro?”

Seraphina smiled slightly and said, “It’s been a hot minute since someone talked to me about my relationship with him.”

Ever since Sandra Smith left, no one would incessantly pry into her relationship and progress with Leandro, and she had not been able to share.

“We can talk about it, right?” Andrea suggested, “I can see, and I can feel, that Leandro really gives a damn about you. But you… in your relationship with him, you don’t seem to be as invested as he is.”

Seraphina listened quietly, thought for a moment, then replied, “I used to be all in.”

The past between her and Leandro had been the talk of the town online before, so naturally Andrea knew about it, hence she only asked, “What about now?”

“Now, I’m trying hard too.” Seraphina answered.

“Trying hard to do what?”

“I’m trying hard to accept his kindness, and also trying hard to treat him right.” Seraphina continued, “Of course, my kindness to him may not be as much as his to me.”

“Have you ever been moved by him?”

After a moment of silence, Seraphina slowly nodded her head, turned to look at Andrea, and candidly admitted, “Yes, plenty of times.”
