Chapter 105
Upon conclusion of the game, Leandro emerged victorious by a significant margin leading by twelve
strokes.
Following the game, Seraphina applauded Leandro and playfully ribbed John, “You boast about being a
master of all trades, yet you were completely outplayed by Leandro How do you explain that?”
“Leandro is a regular patron of this golf course. He’s up at dawn every day, honing his skills throughout
the year Losing to him isn’t surprising,” John retorted, turning to Seraphina ‘However, you agreed to
accompany me to the wedding at Crystal Waters Island, so I don’t see this as a loss”
At this, Seraphina cast a glance at Leandro and retorted with a smuk, “So, did Leandro truly triumph
then?”
Leandro shot her a look, then retrieved his phone from the caddy and attended to a call
Seraphina sidestepped commencing a discussion about the upcoming trip to Crystal Waters Island with
John
Once the call ended, Leandro dismissed her with a curt, “I need to leave,” directed at John
John responded with a nod, “Till next time.”
Seraphina waved a cheerful goodbye to Leandro. He didn’t reciprocate, simply walking away.
John chuckled looking at Seraphina, “Seems your relationship with Leandro is rather lukewarm”
“Not necessarily,” Seraphina countered, her gaze following Leandro’s departure. “Perhaps I’m just not
his preferred company at the moment”
John too glanced in the same direction, emitting a light chuckle “Seems like it”
At this. Seraphina shifted her gaze to meet his Their eyes locked and she couldn’t help but laugh
A week later, Seraphina and John boarded a flight to the renowned Crystal Waters Island
Their plane landed at local noon, while it was the middle of the night in Sunburst City, the Reynolds
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtGroup’s meeting room was still brightly lit
All the senior managers were seated in the meeting room, looking tense Leandro was expressionless,
his gaze putting everyone under pressure.
The Starhaven branch had messed up due to negligence. The person in charge shirked responsibility
and offended their partners. Now, not only were their partners withdrawing investment but also
threatening to sue the Reynolds Group. If this blew up, the branch would suffer massive losses. The
employees at Starhaven felt the crisis, and the headquarters staff were also feeling the heat from
Leandro.
Round after round of discussion, yet no solution was found. Leandro’s face was increasingly grim.
“Mr. Reynolds, we do have another solution, the newly appointed person in charge at the Starhaven
branch cautiously said over the video call, “Actually, they’ve always felt we aren’t giving them enough
attention. All of us have been refused by their leader Irvin. But I know that Irvin has a good relationship
with the Clark Group in Sunburst City if Mr. Reynolds could contact Irvin through the Clark Group,
perhaps he would give us a chance.”
The moment he finished speaking, the atmosphere in the meeting room turned even tenser
Everyone knew that Leandro’s requirements for his employees were to solve problems effectively Now
they not only failed to solve the problem but also asked Leandro to solve it personally, which was a
serious dereliction of duty Plus, the Clark Group and the Reynolds Group had always been at odds, full
of contradictions. They actually suggested Leandro solve the problem through the Clark Group, which
was another serious dereliction.
Everyone in the office lowered their heads, no one daring to speak.
Leandro didn’t say anything just quietly watching the person who suggested on the video until he
couldn’t help but lower his head, muttering a soft, “I’m sorry, Mr. Reynolds
“Check Henry Clark’s recent schedule.” Leandro suddenly said, his expression unchanged
Everyone in the meeting room was taken aback. The next moment, those who came to their senses
began to check the movements of Henry, the president of the Clark Group, according to Leandro’s
instructions
“No need to check,” one of the senior managers suddenly said, “I know that Henry flew to Crystal
Waters Island to attend Mr. Malloy’s daughter’s wedding He left yesterday during the day”
Everyone instantly turned to look at Leandro
‘Prepare the plane”
Leandro dropped this phrase and walked straight out of the meeting room.
The next day, at the magnificent wedding scene, Seraphina, dressed in a nude pink evening dress,
walked arm in arm with John into the hall.
The venue was teeming with celebrities, both local to Sunburst City and from afar. The scale of the
event surpassed any wedding Seraphina had ever attended.
Thankfully, she was in John’s Company, so she had nothing to fret over. John introduced her to
attendees, she responded with pleasantries. John conversed with guests, she stood by his side
John also demonstrated considerable consideration, frequently checking if she was fatigued or required
a break.
Seraphina didn’t feel weary, merely slightly uninterested
Just as this thought crossed her mind, a minor stir arose from the entrance
Scanning over the crowd, Seraphina abruptly spotted Leandro.
For such an occasion, Leandro was also very formal, wearing a suitable tuxedo. His expression wasn’t
as stern as usual, but he was always aloof, exuding a don’t get close
vibe
The moment she saw him, Seraphina couldn’t help but laugh in this instant, all her boredom seemed to
vanish.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmUpon hearing her voice, John followed her gaze and his eyes landed straight on the woman in front of
Leandro
The tall woman in a beige maxi dress was smiling and chatting with the man before her
John silently watched the woman who seemed oblivious to his presence, her eyes solely focused on
Leandro in front of her
John’s eyes darkened a bit, retracted his gaze, and continued his conversation with the people around
him.
Meanwhile, Seraphina kept her eyes on Leandro until he finally noticed her. Only then did she raise her
glass, smirking at Leandro
However, Leandro only spared her a glance before his attention was drawn by the person in front of
him
Seraphina saw a beautiful woman in a backless dress standing before Leandro, and she immediately
recognized her – Georgina
Georgina was standing in front of Leandro, chatting happily with him.
One was the CEO of the top corporation in Sunburst City and the other was a popular, enchanting
actress Both were quite attractive, quickly drawing a crowd of people engrossed in their conversation.
So, Seraphina shifted her gaze away and no longer looked in that direction
Soon after, John finished his conversation with his company, turned around and invited Seraphina to sit
down, to which she gladly agreed
Just as they settled down, guests started to take their seats.
Leandro’s seat was across a table from Seraphina, conveniently at the same table as Georgina.
So Seraphina sat there, watching the two of them chatting away, pursing her lips slightly
It was only then that John noticed Leandro, and couldn’t help but chuckle. He turned to Seraphina, ‘I
thought he said he was too busy to come, how come he’s here? Should we go say hi?”
“No need,” Seraphina turned her head to look at him and started laughing. “He’s got a beauty by his
side, do you think he even has eyes for me?”
