Chapter 179
Before long, Leo's minivan rolled up to the curb Spacious enough for a small
crowd, it easily accommodated everyone.
Mirabella hopped in first while Zach and Collins stowed the luggage at the back.
Leo hesitated for a moment before climbing aboard, sliding into the seat right
beside Mirabella.
Zach, returning from the trunk, caught sight of Mirabella, with Leo now occupying
the prime spot next to her. He shot Leo a sidelong glance.
Jeez, what a sneaky guy!
A bewildered Leo, on the receiving end of an unexpected glare, thought, “What
the. i?!
Collins had witnessed the whole exchange. He shook his head and settled into
the
passenger seat.
The vehicle soon left the airport, cruising towards the Davis family’s suburban
enclave. Once inside, Leo removed his mask. He was known for his cool
demeanor and wasn’t much of a talker. His previous encounter with Mirabella
had been brief, just a dinner, but his first impression wasn't too shabby!
Now, his hands rested on his knees, fingers idly caressing the fabric of his jeans.
His peripheral vision occasionally caught Mirabella’s presence. He wanted to
strike up a conversation but couldn't quite find the words.
Zach, meanwhile, wasn’t in the mood for chit—chat either. Having been abroad for
days, he had a backlog of company matters to sort through and was busy texting
his assistant.
Mirabella felt Leo's stealthy glances and let her eyelids droop slightly before
casually turning to look at him. She noticed his pallor, which hinted at a certain
unwellness, a touch of sickness perhaps?
Her brow furrowed as her gaze accidentally swept over his hand resting on his
knee. The faded needle marks were still discernible.
After pondering for a few seconds, Mirabella asked nonchalantly, “Have you been
shooting overseas lately?”
Leo turned to Mirabella, unsure how she knew about his travels-Zach had
probably
mentioned it.
Regaining composure, Leo pressed his lips into a stiff smile that softened his
usually distant expression. He nodded and replied, “Yeah.”
“You don't look too well,” Mirabella observed with a composed facade. “Are you
sick?”
At her words, Leo's fingers involuntarily clenched, and his expression froze for a
moment. That's when Zach chimed in from the backseat, “He's just worn out from
a long flight, that's
all.”

Leo relaxed his hand. He didn’t want the family to know about his health issues.
“Oh, then make sure you rest up when we get home. Health comes first,”
Mirabella said, dropping her gaze, seemingly convinced.
