Chapter 124


    After Seraphina left the Wilson family’s house, she drove a couple of blocks and then pulled over


    At this point, it was the wee hours, and the whole city was gradually falling into the most peaceful time


    of the day. Despite this, cars were still constantly passing by her


    Where were these busy people rushing off to?


    Seraphina sat in her car for a while, then suddenly pulled out her phone and dialed Magdalen’s number


    The first time, the phone rang a few times before it was hung up

    The second time, the phone was hung up after only one fing


    The third time


    The fourth time


    Not until the tenth plus time did Magdalen finally pick up. Her cool voice was filled with impatience:


    “What’s wrong with you?”


    Seraphina heard faint noises from her end Clearly, she was still at a party


    She was quiet for a moment, then slowly said, “Dad’s birthday is the day after tomorrow. Should we


    have a meal together?”


    On the other end of the phone. Magdalen seemed to be quiet for a while, then suddenly hung up


    Seraphina stared at her phone for a while, chuckled, and then dialed another number


    As soon as the call was connected, Sandra’sining voice came through: “You heartless girl!


    You’ve been gone for so long and you finally remember me?”


    Seraphina cut to the chase, “Can I borrow a million from you?”


    Sandra was startled by this sudden request, “A million? What are you nning to do?”


    “I have something to deal with Seraphina answered, “But, you know my financial situation I can only


    pay you back slowly”


    “Hold on What are you doing that needs a million? Sandra lowered her voice and asked, ‘Is it


    dangerous?”


    “Not for me” Seraphina said. “But it might be dangerous for those who have crossed met


    When Seraphina returned to her apartment, Leandro’s car was no longer in sight downstairs.


    That’s to be expected. How could a busybody like Leandro, who even schedules his sex life, wait at


    one ce for a woman?


    Seraphina opened the car door, went upstairs, but unexpectedly found Farrah napping on her couch


    Hearing the sound of the door closing, Farrah immediately woke up. Seeing Seraphina, she rubbed her


    eyes sleepily


    “Why are you still here?” Seraphina looked at her, “is my couch thatfy?”


    As Farrah gradually woke up, she snorted. “I was waiting for you.”


    Seraphina poured herself a ss of water andughed, “Waiting for me for what? What about that


    hunk you were eyeing?”


    “He left after receiving a call.” Farrah crossed her arms and looked at her, “Seraphina, I waited for you


    toe back just to tell you that I’ve got my eye on him, and I’m nning topete with you for him.”


    Seraphina almost spit out a mouthful of water. Her gaze swept over Farrah’s chest, “With your heavy


    metal style and those small breasts?”


    “What’s wrong with small breasts?” Farrah got angry, “How do you know he won’t like it?”


    Seraphina leaned against the wall and looked at her,ughing You met him for the first time today


    right? What do you like about him?”


    “He’s handsome, has a good body, mature and stable,pletely my type” Farrah answered.


    Seraphina nodded in agreement, then added, “His skills in bed are also very good. If you can win him


    over, you’re really lucky”


    “What are you talking about?” Farrah’s face suddenly turned beet red, “When did I tell you that?”


    Seraphina looked at her, “You’ve already dered that you’re going topete with me for this man,


    so what’s there to be shy about?”


    “I’m not shy Farrah sneered, ‘I just wanted to tell you that I’m not the kind of person who does things


    behind people’s backs. I’llpete with you openly!”


    Seraphina took a sip of water, then said, “Don’t worry you’re not mypetitor”


    “Seraphina” Farrah said angrily. “Don’t underestimate me! Men all like young girls. I’m younger than


    you, and that’s my advantage!”


    “That’s not what I meant Seraphina looked at her and said, “Tm saying, I don’t want this man.”


    Farrah looked at her skeptically. “Are you for real or just bluffing? Are you really willing to let go such a


    good man?”


    “You dont believe


    Seraphina said with a smile, “I’ll prove it to you in a few days.”


    Two dayster the famous contemporary painter Ma held an exhibition in Moonhaven. Seraphina


    was invited to attend.


    Just arriving at the entrance of the exhibition hall, Seraphina bumped into Magdalen and her male


    companion


    “Ms Magdalen, what a coincidence Seraphina smiled at her


    The moment Magdalen saw Seraphina, she frowned. She walked into the exhibition hall with her


    companion’s armi


    Seraphina only smiled as she watched their retreating figures


    Ma was a good friend of Carney’s before he died and he was also very close to Magdalen. He was


    holding an exhibition in Moonhaven, and as a friend, Magdalen would definitelye to congratte


    him


    And as Carney’s daughter, she shoulde too


    Ma was standing at the door greeting guests Seeing the mother and daughtere in, he


    immediatelyughed, “You two beauties showing up at the same time are you nning to steal my


    thunder?”


    Magdalen didn’t look at Seraphina, she just said, “I’m just here to look around and leave Your exhibition


    will have many important peopleing, so it doesn’t matter if I’m


    hat here”


    “Okay, okay” Ma understood her personality. Tm satisfied with youing”


    Magdalen didn’t say anything else to him, she entered the exhibition hall with herpanion


    At this time, Seraphina stepped forward. “Mi Ma, congrattions”


    Ma looked at her and sighed. “I haven’t seen you for a few years, and you’ve grown up so much”


    “But you still look so young, and your creativity is as strong as ever!” Seraphina said.


    Ma brushed off herpliment, asking. “You still painting?”


    “Nope, not anymore.” Seraphina replied. “I didn’t get my dad’s talent”


    Mentioning Carney, they both went quiet for a while, then Ma said, “If your dad was still around,


    he’d probably be a better artist than me


    Seraphina paused for a moment, smiled and said, “Well, I’m still grateful to you, Mr. Ma.”


    In the gallery, Magdalen, arm in arm with her date, quickly nced over the thirty–something paintings


    on disy, never lingering too long on any one of them.


    Then, turning a corner, a painting suddenly caught her eye. Magdalen stopped at once


    In the painting, the roses were mboyant and attractive. The colours were stunningly beautiful.


    Magdalen stared at the painting for a long time.

    Her boyfriend, who didn’t know much about art, saw her reaction and asked, “Is this painting any


    good?”


    “Of course. It’s more than good” Seraphina’s voice rang out from behind them, filled with pride and


    nostalgia, “My dad painted it. It’s the most beautiful roses in the world”


    Hearing this, Magdalen’s boyfriend looked at Seraphina with surprise


    However, Magdalen suddenly turned around, raised her hand and gave Seraphina a loud p
