Chapter 159
When Seraphina spotted themotion, she instantly realized this was about her.
She hurried over and grabbed Conway’s hand “Conway, what’s the hell is going on?”
Conway, gripping her hand and clutching his chest, was immediately attended to by a nurse who
pressed the call button.
The doctor was there in no time, and a series of organized checks followed.
Seizing the moment, Seraphina turned to Lacy “What the heck is happening?”
Lacy looked at Seraphina for a while before finally letting out a sigh of relief. ‘Ms. Bet, thank God
you’re okay”

Getting the hint, Seraphina asked, ‘Does Conway know?”
She didn’t have time for more questions and rushed tofort Conway, who looked devastated.
“Conway, why are you freaking out? Look at me, I’m perfectly fine, not a scratch! Look! Look at me!”
As she spoke, she brushed her hair back and took off her coat to show Conway she was unhurt.
Conway just stared at her, his expression eased a bit, but he still looked pale.
After the doctor finished his check–up, he turned to Seraphina “Conway’s okay for now, but his health
is fragile. He can’t take any more shocks. So, watch
it”
Seraphina nodded in agreement.
Once Conway calmed down, he asked, “Are you really okay?”
“I’m fine, Seraphina reassured him I’m standing right here, aren’t I? Don’t you trust your own eyes?”
“Did they find out who did it?” Conway asked.
“Don’t worry about that, Conway,” Seraphina said. “Someone’s on it.”
But Conway seemed unsatisfied, he turned to Lacy “Give me my phone. I need to make some calls.”
Seeing Lacy’s hesitation, Seraphina quickly intervened. “Conway, what are you up to? The doctor said
you need to rest. Stop fussing about this!”
“No can do!” Conway protested. “How can I rest knowing something like this happened? I won’t rest in
peace until this is cleared up.”
He started coughing violently as he spoke.
Seraphinaforted him by gently touching his chest. “Leandro’s handling it. You trust him, don’t you?
So, stop worrying!”
“Leandro?” Conway looked up at Seraphina. You two…”
Seraphina paused before revealing. “He saved me this time.”
Hearing that, Conway lit up. “So, you two…eh?”
Looking at Conway’s childlike smile, Seraphina was at a loss for words.
Conway seemed to have his own conclusions and didn’t press further. He perked up and held
Seraphina’s hand. “Leandro’s trustworthy. As long as you believe in him, I’ll be at ease.”
Seraphina held his hand back, saying nothing.
Exhausted, Conway soon fell asleep again. Even in sleep, his grip on Seraphina’s hand remained firm.
In a quiet voice, Seraphina asked Lacy, “What exactly happened? How did Conway find out?”
Lacy exined, “The incident had a big impact and involved the police. The Reynolds Group, being a
publicpany, had to address it. Conway has many connections, and he somehow got wind of it. He
insisted on seeing you safe with his own eyes”
Seraphina turned to look at Conway, falling silent for a while.
Valerio stood by her side quietly, patting her gently when she didn’t say anything.
Seraphina turned to him, then back at Conway, and silently hugged Valerio.
Around noon, Valerio was getting hungry. But with Conway still holding Seraphina’s hand. She didn’t
want to disturb him and asked Lacy to take Valerio out for food
Just as Lacy and Valerio left, the door was pushed open. Seraphina turned around, expecting Lacy had
come back for something, but was stunned to see Magdalen.
Magdalen had lost some weight after the turmoil but still looked splendid and striking.
She didn’t expect to see Seraphina either. After pausing for a moment, she walked over to Conway’s
bedside, ignoring Seraphina.
Seraphina watched her quietly, then said, “It’s been over a decade since youst saw Conway, hasn’t
it?”
From the time she was ten, Magdalen sent her back to the Reynolds family and moved to Starhaven.
For all these years, she never returned to Sunburst
City Bruce managed to see her asionally when flying to Starhaven, but Conway, due to his health,
rarely left the city, so they seldom met.
Seraphina thought to herself, if it weren’t for Conway stepping in to handle this mess, she might not
have returned.
Magdalen looked up at her upon hearing this.
Seraphina gave a slight smile, “Conway would be pleased
Magdalen, sitting on the chair at the other side of the bed, didn’t reply but rather asked, “What about
you?”
“Me?” Seraphina seemed a bit puzzled
Looking at Conway on the hospital bed, Magdalen slowly said, “He said he hoped I’de back to
mend our rtionship because I’d hurt you, didn’t 17”
After hearing this, Seraphina remained silent for a while before softly chuckling. “That was then, not
anymore”
“That’s good then,” Magdalen said, “No expectations, no disappointments. Now that we’ve cleared the
air, let’s coexist peacefully so he can live out his remaining days at ease”
Seraphina gently stroked Conway’s wrinkled hand, after a while, she murmured, “Alright”
About half an hourter, Conway slowly woke up. Upon seeing Magdalen, he seemed a bit surprised
but then recognized her and smiled, “You’re back?”
“Well, you called for me, how could I note back? Magdalen softly responded.
Conway quietly examined her for a moment and then gave a gratified smile, “Good, good Sera?”
“Conway, I’m here, Seraphina quickly replied.
“Your mom’s back,” Conway said, “You two should have a good talk…
Seraphina nced at Magdalen and smiled, “We’ll talk another day, Conway. I have other things to
attend to today. You and my mom haven’t seen each other in over a decade. Have a good chat.”
Conway just quietly watched her.
Seraphina stood up, walked to Magdalen, and whispered, “Mom, I’ll leave Conway to you for now.
Keep himpany”
Magdalen didn’t look at her but just nodded.
Seraphina gave Conway another smile before turning to leave the ward.
Watching Seraphina’s figure disappear, Conway then turned to Magdalen with a sigh, “Are you still
going to be this stubborn?”
Holding his hand, Magdalen softly responded, “I came back as you asked, isn’t that enough?”
Conway looked at her and couldn’t help but sigh.
That afternoon, at the Reynolds Group press conference.
It wasn’t a major press conference, just a rification about the explosion involving Leandro.
Nevertheless, due to its connection to Leandro, dozens of media outlets attended.
At three o’clock sharp, Leandro appeared before the press.
He has never been fond of dealing with the press, and everyone in the PR department knew this, so
there was no Q&A session. He was just to read a few lines of script.
The script merely mentioned Seraphina’s identity, emphasizing that Leandro’s adventure was just a
false rm triggered by friendship, and the following incident was handed to the police.
While Leandro was reading the script as nned, the door of the conference room was slightly opened
and a head peeked out.
Though it was a minor movement, it drew the attention of a few reporters at the scene.
Having noticed this, Cam, the PR manager, tensed up and nced over.
At the same time, Leandro finished his brief speech. Although there was no Q&A session nned, the
reporters eagerly asked questions anyway.
“May we ask, Mr. Reynolds, who is this friend of yours? Are you close?”
“Mr. Reynolds, you risked your safety for a friend, didn’t you consider your own safety?”
“Mr. Reynolds, is this Ms. Bet?”
Leandro was about to stand up and leave when he heard Seraphina’s name, causing him to pause
slightly.
Those reporters who noticed the movement at the side door of the conference room then asked, “Is
Ms. Bet here? Can we interview Ms. Bet?”
The previously slightly opened conference room door was suddenly fully opened, and Seraphina, all
dressed up in a long dress, walked out.
The reporters immediately started buzzing, and the cameras all turned to Seraphina.
“So I’ve been spotted Seraphina waved to the cameras in the crowd while walking up to the stage to
stand next to Leandro
Leandro’s deep gaze fell on her, but Seraphina just looked up at him, and in a coquettish tone said,
“These reporters have such sharp eyes. I just took a sneak peek and got caught.”
“So, is Ms. Bet involved in this incident?”
“Mr. Reynolds, did you risk this for Ms. Bet?”
“Mr. Reynolds, what is your rtionship with Ms. Bet?”
