Chapter 26 - Slacker Riggs

Seeing Seraphina's behavior, Sebastian Yue was delighted. In the past, the young Seraphina barely made friends due to her peculiar perspective and behavior which made him worried that she won't find her equilibrium in life thus, he always granted her request to explore herself eventhough sometimes they are hard to fulfill.

She assisted Marga all throughout dinner like a mother caring for her child. Everyone was pleased and surprised by her action but they thought that it was probably due to her amnesia. Regardless, she didn't change for the worst as what they expected that made them felt relieved.

Apparently, no one knew that Seraphina was slowly caging them and living with her under the same roof would be the start of their upcoming nightmares.

"Cousin, thank you..." As Seraphina was tucking her to bed, Marga spoke. Her voice cracked as tears started to form at the corner of her eyes.

"You don't have to thank me. Besides, it's good that you'll stay here so we can be... closer." Seraphina said as she offered her a warm, gentle smile before she hugged her tightly. She c_a_r_e_s_sed the back of her head as she thought she might help her sleep by knocking her out but unfortunately, she wasn't that merciful especially to someone like her.

After a few chit-chats and reminders, she left Marga to sleep. As Seraphina departed, Marga felt unease and her whole body started to shiver. In her life, this was the most terrifying experience she will never forget or she thought.

When Seraphina arrived in her room, she felt energized. She started humming as she went to the shower. Unlike the previous dull, boring designed room —her current room was much colorful like a rainbow. It also had plenty of mirrors everywhere because she was a little vain eversince she was back to her 'goddess self.'

She happily undress herself but was abruptly stopped as she noticed the indelible small Japanese scripture under her left b_r_e_a_s_t. It was read as: Ryū

She smirked as she touch the small tattoo and mumbled, "stupid."

Seraphina didn't dwell on it for long and soaked herself in the hot tub full of rose petals.

"Ahh... it feels so good to be alive." She mumbled before she rested her eyes under the soothing sound of the music.

6 hours earlier...

Seraphina ransacked every boutique inside the luxury mall and at the same time she carefully observed every cctv camera's around the mall and found its blindspot.

She was confident that she had an advantage as the two men tremendously lowered their guards. She might even kill them easily if she wanted to but that isn't necessary she thought.

After she found her perfect escaped route, she went to her appointment to have a makeover. She did wanted to doll up but also, it was the perfect time to sneak out with her bodyguards radar as she looked like a different person making her impossible to find in minutes.

Seraphina was very satisfied with the result of her makeover thus, she wanted to give her bodyguards a heads up and offered them to take a photo of her new look. But both men disregard her beautiful transformation that made her slightly abashed.

'These two are slowpoke. Can't they see a beautiful goddess infront of them?' she shrugged it off as it wasn't her problem anymore.

In the restroom.

Soon after, as expected, Uno did looked for her inside the restroom. Seeing his expression, she silently giggled.

'He must be very pissed.' She thought

When Uno left the restroom, Seraphina flexibly got down from the plenum and languidly dust off her clothes. She deliberately stopped at the cctv camera outside the restroom and mouthed;

"7pm. Home."

A smug grin formed on her lips as she continued her way to her escaped route.

Uno might be a little stubborn but she knew that slacker Riggs. Just listening to his nonsense blabber would make them move in a slower pace thus, Seraphina leisurely exited the premises with ease.
