Chapter 304
Seraphina’s recent behavior was pleasing and natural, totally in line with his usual preferences. She thought Leandro would be pleased, but he asked an unexpected question.
Seraphina pondered for a moment and came to a conclusion-The meeting just now might have really made him upset.
Seraphina didn’t ask anything, just slightly turned her head to look at him and said, “So you don’t like me like this, should I change?”
She stood up and straightened her dress, then stood in front of him in a very polite manner.
She smiled and bowed, saying, “Darling, you’ve had a tough day, let me give you a shoulder massage.”
As she reached out for Leandro’s shoulder, he grabbed her hand and pulled her back into his arms before she could touch him.
Seraphina said, “What do you want? You got frustrated elsewhere and you want to vent it on me?”
Leandro slowly said, “Did I vent on you?”
Seraphina said, “Didn’t you? It’s just an invitation, why are you giving me a hard time! What do you want from me, spit it out!”
Leandro looked at her quietly, but before he could speak, the office door was knocked.
After a while, Yasmina opened the door and carefully said, “Mr. Reynolds, Mr. Luke and Mr. Norman still hope to talk to you again.”
Hearing these two names, Leandro’s eyes instantly became gloomier, he even seemed a bit impatient, all of which Seraphina saw.
Mr. Luke and Mr. Norman were shareholders of the Reynolds Group. Although they didn’t provide substantial help when the Reynolds Group encountered difficulties in the early years, they didn’t abandon the Reynolds Group at the crucial moment. Therefore, after Leandro reorganized the Reynolds Group, they were still important shareholders.
Over the years, although Leandro held the power, the opinions of these two were still important at critical moments.
Seeing Leandro’s reaction, Seraphina guessed that the two might have just angered Leandro, but they still didn’t give up.
Even though Leandro seemed impatient, he didn’t refuse them.
Seraphina’s evaluation of him was-this man is always rational and calm, prioritizing the overall situation, and would never make impulsive decisions due to personal emotions.
“Since you’re still busy, I’ll leave first.” Seraphina said, “We’ll talk about it when I get home tonight.”
Upon saying that, she stood up, glanced regretfully at the invitation in Leandro’s hand, and slowly walked towards the door.
Leandro quietly watched her back until she disappeared out of the door.
As soon as Seraphina walked out the door, she ran into Mr. Luke and Mr. Norman.
She had met them twice before, and after politely greeting them, she watched them walk into Leandro’s office/
Yasmina was busy making coffee and didn’t notice Seraphina at first. When she came out after delivering the coffee to the office, Seraphina was still at
her desk.
Seeing that Seraphina was still there, Yasmina obviously breathed a sigh of relief. She made a gesture of request to Seraphina, “Mrs. Reynolds, could you stay a bit longer?”
“Why?” Seraphina was originally here to inquire about the situation, so she just asked directly, “Is there a disagreement within?!
Yasmina nodded, “It involves a big project, it’s been two days and they still haven’t reached a consensus. Mr. Reynolds is probably about to lose patience, everyone’s very nervous…”
“I can’t provide any help if I stay.” Seraphina shrugged, “I’m leaving.” C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
“Wait!” Yasmina grabbed her, “Trust me, your staying here would be the biggest help!”
“Don’t fool me.” Seraphina smiled, “If I stay, Mr. Reynolds will vent all his anger on me, and you guys will feel relieved, right?”
Yasmina took a deep breath, “Mr. Reynolds would never be angry with you! Having you around, his mood would definitely improve.”
“I’ve already taken his unreasonable anger.” Seraphina said, “I won’t fall for your trick.
Seraphina turned to leave, but Yasmina still held her hand tightly until they were near the elevator. Yasmina then said, “Maybe he’s not venting on you, but hoping for your comfort.”
Hearing this, Séraphina stopped.
Seeing a chance, Yasmina quickly continued, “Trust me, if you comfort him a bit, Mr. Reynolds will definitely calm down soon!”
Seraphina folded her arms and watched the rising elevator floor in front of her.
The elevator eventually reached the 26th floor, the elevator doors opened in front of her, but she suddenly turned around and looked at Yasmina.
“Has he had lunch?”
Yaşmina was so moved she was about to cry, “He hasn’t! I’ll order food right away!”
Inside the office, Leandro once again heard the viewpoints and reasons that the two shareholders had repeatedly stated.
His patience was running out, coupled with his bad mood, he was about to lose it, when Seraphina, who had just left, suddenly walked in
The original oppressive atmosphere was instantly broken.
“Sorry for interrupting.” Seraphina said, “I just feel a bit unwell and want to rest here, you guys carry on with your business, I won’t disturb you.”
After saying that, she went towards the lounge. Seeing this, Leandro also got up and followed.
As soon as Seraphina walked into the lounge, she turned around and found that Leandro had also entered.
“Ain’t you supposed to be gone?” Leandro asked her calmly, as he gently closed the door.
Seraphina stepped forward, reaching up to wrap her arms around his neck. “I don’t feel like leaving now. Hurry up and finish your talk with them, I’ll have lunch with you.”
With that, she leaned in and planted a quick kiss on his lips.
Leandro reached out to steady her by her waist, his gaze fixed on her face, looking straight into her eyes.
But she was always all smiles, and no matter how sharp his look was, he couldn’t decipher anything..
Before he could say anything, Seraphina was pushing him out the door, “Hurry up and get on with it, or I’ll starve to death!”
Leandro glanced back at her one more time before closing the lounge door and returning to the office area.
The ensuing conversation went surprisingly smoothly.
Leandro always did things his own way. He usually only half-listened to the dissenting views of other shareholders, rarely giving them serious consideration.
But this time, for the first time, he listened quietly to the two shareholders’ speeches.
Not because he felt their opinions were truly important, but because he was reminded of someone waiting for him in the next room, and his usually restless heart finally quieted down.
In the end, with both parties willing to compromise, the two-day-long argument finally came to a temporary halt.
