Chapter 100
Being a journalist, Seraphina had a knack for capturing nuances in conversations. As soon as Bruce’s words reached her ears, she was reminded of a remark Karan had
once made
She scrutinized Bruce carefully before venturing. “Is he the offspring of the Reynolds family? Don’t tell me he’s your
Bruce raised his hand, gently Inpping her forehead, “What notions am you entertaining? The lad is Leandro’s
Seraphina clasped her forehead. He brought a child home, only to discover the child was his?”
Bruce guided her into a room, settled himself, and proceeded, “Your grandfather must have shared the story Leandro brought the child home simply declaring I found this kid on the street, belom leaving The household was left in a state of bewilderment. Only later, when his cousins had the chilif’s DNA analyzed did it become apparent that the child was linked to the Reynolds lineage Leandro was oblivious to this and ordered the child to be handed over to the police En mute, they intercapted the child with the DNA test report
Seraphina listened intently. This sounds like a TV drama”
Bruce nodded. “After further testing, it was confirmed that he was indeed Leandro’s child But where the child came from, who sent the child over, these are still mysteries” Seraphina snorted, “Doesn’t he know who he’s slept with? Or has he had so many partners that he can’t keep track?”
Bruce didn’t blame her for being blunt, just gave her a helpless look.
Seraphina asked again, “What happened next? Were there any clues found?”
“Nothing” Bruce replied, “Leandro was very angry about it a few years ago. The company and family issues were already giving him a headache, plus a sudden child, he suspected it was a trap set by his enemies We spent a lot of energy investigating, but there was never any result. Only later did Leandro gradually accept the child, but there has been no news of the child’s mother over the years”
The child was given to Leandro, but his mother never showed up. It was like a ticking time bomb, ready to explode at any moment
So when Leandro said it was a ‘pointless matter it was because he couldn’t find any clues. This could be one of the few things that made Leandro artxious.
Seraphina thought about this and couldn’t help but laugh
“Is it really that funny Bruce looked at her fondly
“He might have been set up.” Seraphina said, “I’d really like to know who could make Leandro suffer. Bruce, if I help you find out who this person is, what will you give me as
a reward?”
Bruce laughed, “What do you want?”
“Half the world of the Reynolds family” Seraphina responded without hesitation.
“That’s easy, Bruce said, “Marry Leandro,then you will have it, right?”
Seraphina raised her hand that was red from Gloria’s slap, “Stop kidding!”
Seeing her like this, Bruce sighed and changed the subject, “Speaking of your previous investigation on Balch Lawson, I have a media friend who wants to interview you. Sre you interested?”
“I’m part of the media Industry myself,” Seraphina countered. “Why would I need someone else to conduct my interview?”
“Even though the incident is evident, you never formally clarified your association with Balch Bruce responded, “Public curiosity is inevitable. An interview to dispel the prevailing ambiguities would be beneficial for your career trajectory, wouldn’t it?”
Seraphina huffed, “In essence, Bruce, you’re concerned about me potentially besmirching the Reynolds family reputation. Since you’ve requested it, I’ll comply”
A satisfied smile crept onto Bruce’s face before he sighed, “I hadn’t anticipated you being a journalist, bold enough to engage with someone like Balch. You’re nothing like
your mother
At the mention of Magdalen, Seraphina reflexively arched an eyebrow, feeling that this conversation had reached its conclusion.
At this moment, Lorenzo came over with a pile of medical reports. Seeing Bruce, he came over and said, “Dad”
Bruce responded and then naturally introduced, “This is Lorenzo, have you met?”
“We have Seraphina smiled, “I didn’t know the Reynolds family had a doctor It’ll be much easier to see a doctor in the future”
*Silly girl, who wants to get sick? Bruce then looked at Lorenzo, “How’s grandpa doing?”
As always, Lorenzo was indifferent, I’m about to accompany grandpa for a check–up We can only be sure when the results come out. But grandpa is old and all his body functions are deteriorating His health has always been poor, so we should be prepared
Hearing this. Seraphina couldn’t help frowning
“Im going to accompany grandpa for the check up now! Lorenzo said
“I go too” Seraphing got up, watched Lorenzo walk into the emergency room, suddenly remembered something turned to Bruce, and asked quietly, “Bruce, I know the eldest son of the Reynolds family died early Leandro is the second son, followed by Lorenzo, what about Lemuel Reynolds?”
She asked this question casually, but Bruce coughed lightly and replied, “He’s working at the company in Germany
Serapland was Juken aback, wanting to ask him if he had other kids, but Lorenzo had already wheeled out Conway. She had to bite her tongue
Conway sitting in tas wheelchair clutched his chest and wailed at the sight of Seraphina, really laying it on thick
Seraphina knew he was putting on a show, but with his health being not so hot, she let him have his way She walked over, saying, “Grandpa, for the sake of you being my gramps, I ll let your little con slide Enough with the theatrics, arent you tired?”
Hearing this. Conway immediately perked up. “Really?
On seeing Conway in this state, a smirk crept onto Lorenzo’s face
Seraphina took note of this and concurred, ‘Absolutely given you’ve acquainted me with some true heartthrobs, Ell excuse you this time!
Presumably due to being relentlessly pursued by ardent adurers. Lorenzos smile swiftly evaporated at her words, returning him to his characteristic frosty countenance Conway, shifting his gaze between Lorenzo and Seraphina, interjected sternly. That won’t work. Even though Lory is indeed a desirable catch, your infatuation with Leandro has been longstanding You can’t just vacillate!
Seraphina rolled her eyes at Conway, then bestowed a radiant smile upon Lorenzo, “Lory, let’s maintain contact alright?”
Lorenzo, with hands tucked away in his lab coat pockets, simply observed her without retort
However, Conway didn’t exercise such restraint, swiping away Seraphina’s band as it extended towards Lorenzo
