Chapter 377
Mirabella cocked an eyebrow but didn’t call him out. After finishing the last sip of her milk, she stood up. “I’m done eating.”
Shawn had also nearly finished his meal. He rose to his feet, “Let’s go. I’ll drop you off at school”
Soon, they were out the door.
Having finished her meal, Delilah retreated to her room to freshen up and get dressed. At the dining table, only Zach and Leo remained.
Leo lifted his gaze to his brother Zach and said, “Zach, someone tweeted an audio clip last night that cleared my name.”
Zach hadn’t checked Twitter, so at Leo’s words, he was taken aback. “What audio?” he asked, pulling out his smartphone and opening Twitter.
Hearing Summer’s voice emanating from the recording, Zach’s expression turned complex. He hadn’t anticipated his former sister would do something like this. Although he had felt uneasy about Summer’s eagerness to leave the Davis family, he had chalked it up to her vanity and the allure of her biological parents‘ wealth. Eventually, he let it go.
He never imagined she would stoop so low as to use Leo’s reputation and future as weapons for revenge. If this recording had not come to light, the matter wouldn’t have settled so easily. Even if he had successfully defended Leo’s rights then, what about the damage done? This was no longer a matter of being pretentious or willful. It was a question of character.
“I can’t believe she turned out this way,” Zach sighed.
Leo knew exactly who ‘she‘ was. His face remained impassive. “True colors.” The impulse to destroy what one cannot have–was the very nature of the Summer he knew.
“So, what are you planning to do?” Zach asked, raising an eyebrow.
Leo set down his half–finished breakfast sandwich, contemplating for a moment. “Everyone must face the consequences of their actions. She should have thought about that before doing what she did.”
“I see.” Zach fell silent, then added, “I think we should let Emmitt listen to the audio clip
online.”
Leo understood; after all, Emmitt and Summer had been close since childhood. If Summer tried to play the family card with Emmitt again, it would indeed affect everyone’s mood.
“I’ll stop by Emmitt’s office later, Leo said slowly.
“Okay.” After a pause, Zach added, “Mom and Dad aren’t really on Twitter, so there’s no

need to let them in on this. It would be ironic, to say the least, for them to discover that the daughter they had cherished for over a decade had been scheming against their closest kin.
Leo nodded and then bowed his head, saying nothing more. As for why Summer had a plece of music identical to his, he’d address that once he had more clarity.
The school was abuzz with the scandal that had blown up online the night before involving Summer’s attempt to frame Juztin. As the only person in the class who knew Mirabella was Juztin’s sister, Jenna naturally didn’t let the opportunity to grill Summer
slide.
“How did your brother’s music end up in Summer’s hands?” Jenna had listened to the recording and felt Summer was being secretive, prompting Jenna to focus on this particular point.
Mirabella arched an eyebrow and glanced at her with a smirk. “Maybe she’s got superpowers?”
Jenna’s lips twitched. “Queen Mira, please take this seriously.”
