Tangled in His Obsession

Chapter 381



Chapter 381

Abbot felt a bit embarrassed after hearing Seraphina’s words.

Even though he always had a tracking device on him, when Seraphina exposed him, he felt like he was caught red-handed.

However, he couldn’t repeat what Seraphina had said in front of Leandro.

“Mr. Reynolds, the missus is out,” Abbot whispered to Leandro, “Don’t worry, I’ll keep an eye on her.”

Leandro didn’t expect him to answer the call, but remembering Seraphina’s request, he didn’t say much and hung up after agreeing.

Abbot formally handed Seraphina’s phone back to her.

Seraphina didn’t ask what Leandro said, and didn’t comment on the situation, quickly focusing on driving.

The car first arrived at a high-end apartment in the city center.

Bowen owned more than ten properties. After careful analysis, Seraphina selected five possible locations. She didn’t want to make a big fuss about it, so she chose to deal with it low-key, standing guard one by one. Seraphina parked the car in a parking lot across from the apartment and stayed for a good part of the day.

Until ten o’clock at night, Bowen hadn’t shown up.

Seraphina checked the time and then drove off.

Abbot thought she was going home, but the car was heading for the east side of the city.

“Missus?” Abbot was surprised, “It’s late and you’re not planning on going home?”

“Going home?” Seraphina glanced at him, “I don’t plan to go home for the next two or three days. But if you want to go home, I can give you some time off.” Abbot immediately shut up.

They arrived at the entrance of a regular neighborhood. Seraphina parked the car across the street, then took out a telescope and began observing the neighborhood.

Abbot didn’t know what she was looking at, but he just kept alert, paying attention to the surrounding environment.

Seraphina held the telescope, silently counting the floors of a building in the neighborhood.

The data showed that Bowen’s house was on the 32nd floor, but the windows of it were pitch black.

After waiting for half an hour, Seraphina drove off again.

This time, she drove to the south of the city.

Bowen had a villa there, which was a high-end residential area, not a place for ordinary people to enter.

However, Seraphina, as Mrs. Reynolds, had many friends, including those who lived there the big star, Una.

When Seraphina first met Una at Ike Whitman’s party, she was still an unknown actress.

By the end of last year, when Una was her bridesmaid, she was already a renowned actress.

In April, Una starred in a modern romantic comedy that became an instant hit. Una and the male lead became a popular star duo, attracting a large number of fans and quickly became the most watched rising star of the year. In just a few months, she had moved into such a high-end villa community.

Although Seraphina knew there were many stories behind this, she didn’t want to delve into it. She had helped Una at a critical moment, and Una understood the principle of gratitude.

Therefore, when Seraphina entered Una’s villa, Una warmly welcomed her.

“Seraphina, I invited you over as soon as I moved in,” Una walked in arm in arm with Seraphina, “But you were too busy, I couldn’t even find you.”

“Well, I’m here now, aren’t I?” Seraphina, leaving Abbot outside to watch the car, couldn’t help but exclaim as soon as she entered, “You really know how to live it up! Living in such a big place all by yourself, and it’s so luxuriously decorated…”

Una laughed and said, “Well, you know, it’s not my money… Do you want something to drink?”

“No need to entertain me.” Seraphina said, “I’m just borrowing your place, you can do whatever you need to do.”

Una immediately leaned in and whispered, “Is there another case to investigate?”

Seraphina didn’t answer, just looked at her, “The less you know, the better, so you won’t blow my cover.”

Upon hearing this, Una pouted and said, “Alright, then. Feel free to use anything in the house. Don’t be shy. I’m off to take a bath and do a face mask!”

Seraphina waved her off and then turned off the living room lights, sitting by the window.

Although the privacy of this villa community was very good, with her telescope, she could still see Bowen’s villa.

In the dark, the villa only showed a vague outline under the street light, with every window dark.

Seraphina sat by the window for a long time, and there was no movement at all.

It seemed that this was not Bowen’s recent hiding place.

Seraphina sighed softly and tiredly, checking the other two locations marked on her phone.

Just then, the phone screen suddenly lit up, it was Abbot calling.

Abbot was right outside, he could have just knocked and come in if there was something, why call?

Seraphina hesitated a bit, but still answered the call.

“Missus.” Abbot’s voice was very low on the phone, “A car just entered the community. I think I saw Bowen.”

Upon hearing this, Seraphina immediately picked up the telescope again.

She couldn’t see the car that Abbot was talking about, but in the telescope, Bowen’s villa was still dark, with no signs of anyone entering.

“Are you sure you weren’t mistaken?” Seraphina asked, “I didn’t see him go back…”

“I’m not sure.” Abbot said, “I just saw the car flash by through the car window, and I think the person driving really looked like him…”

Seraphina still kept her eyes on the villa, while thinking about the possibility of Abbot seeing Bowen.

A moment later, she suddenly spoke, “Do you remember the plate number of that car?”

“I got it.” Abbot quickly read out a string of numbers.

Seraphina hung up the call and immediately dashed upstairs. She yanked Una, who was fresh out of the shower, out of the bathroom and told her to take a spin around the neighborhood. Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

Una was clueless about what was going on, but was tickled pink to be involved in one of Seraphina’s investigations. She quickly obliged and hopped in her car for a tour around the block.

About twenty minutes later, Una returned to the house.

“I spotted the car,” Una said, “but it wasn’t where you said, it’d be. It was parked in front of another mansion.”

“In front of another mansion?” Seraphina sprung up, “Can you find out who owns it?

That’s out of my league,” Una chuckled, “but I know someone who can.”
