Chapter 9

Probably due to my distance, Seraphina and Gunner's relationship grew closer.

She transferred all the emotions she couldn't get from me onto Gunner.

Gunner seemed harmless, but he understood better than anyone how to play with Seraphina's heart.

Just when Seraphina started to notice his emotions, he suddenly disappeared.

This kind of push-and-pull tactic seemed to be driving Seraphina crazy.

Gunner vanished for a while.

When he reappeared, I sensed a noticeable emotional shift in Seraphina.

Seraphina might actually be falling for him again.

Strangely, Seraphina's love for me hadn't diminished at all.

She was still incredibly attentive and took care of me meticulously.

Gunner came back.

When Seraphina received Gunner's text, she visibly froze for a moment.

Gunner now had free reign to come and go from our apartment.

His attitude towards Seraphina suddenly cooled, more like he was fishing rather than pursuing her aggressively like before.
