Chapter 77 

As Leo stepped into the living room, Delilah, his mother, pointed towards Mirabella, who had just risen from the couch, and said, “Leo, this is your little sister, Mira.” 

Leo followed his mother’s gaze. The girl was totally gorgeous, with a cute yet striking look about her, her pale cheeks shimmering with a luminescent glow under the lights. She was dressed down in an oversized tee paired with comly shorts, perfect for lounging at home. Her legs were long, slender, and perfectly straight–surpassing the beauty of any model or celebrity he had ever encountered. 

Aside from her looks, there was an air about her that seemed casual, yet inexplicably, she exuded a cool, edgy vibe. She wasn’t coy, nor did she exhibit any sign of timidity, and she certainly didn’t possess the fragility often associated with other girls, 

Initially, Leo felt indifferent about the sister he had never met. Even when Collins had spoken highly of her, Leo remained unimpressed. After all, they had grown up in different worlds, and he had little patience for overly delicate girls. 

However, the girl in front of him was unexpectedly intriguing, and the first impression was far from objectionable. The aloofness that usually guarded Leo’s expression eased somewhat. 

While he appraised Mirabella, she boldly returned his scrutiny. Frankly, Leo didn’t quite match the image she had conjured in her mind, His appearance was unmistakably a testament to the Davis family’s renowned good looks, but judging by the way his agent had delivered gifts that afternoon, she had pegged him as exceedingly arrogant. 

Now, observing him, she recognized the arrogance, but it seemed innate rather than directed at anyone in particular. Someone with such a demeanor, she mused, must be genuinely strong, with no need to curry favor with anyone. 

Mirabella found herself surprised, questioning her own earlier assessments. With such an imposing presence and being in showbiz, why hadn’t she seen him featured in commercials before? Could it be that he wasn’t actually that famous? 

As she pondered this, Mirabella withdrew her inquisitive gaze and calmly, yet politely, greeted, “Hi, Leo.” 

“Yeah, good to have you back,” Leo said, nodding slightly. His tone was casual. He paused for a moment as if realizing something, then added with a hint of regret. “Sorry, things were rushed, and I forgot to bring you a present.” 

Mirabella’s eyes wandered to a cabinet not far away, where items from Collins’s delivery rested.  S~ᴇaʀᴄh the ꜰindNʘvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Before she could respond, Delilah chimed in from beside her, “Didn’t your agent bring over a bunch of gifts this afternoon?” Delilah had already moved to the cabinet and began to sift through the items. 

At this, Leo’s gaze flickered briefly, and he replied. “Those were Collins’s choices. When I get the chance, I’ll personally pick out something for my little sis.” 

Delilah was visibly surprised. Leo’s personality was quite peculiar, arrogant, aloof, and seemingly indifferent. Even with Summer, who had grown up with him since childhood, he tended to ignore her. Emmitt had harbored biases against Mira earlier, which made Delilah worry about how her other sons, especially Leo, would handle it. However, from the looks of it now, Leo seemed to have had a favorable impression of Mira. 

“It’s okay, you don’t have to go out of your way to get me anything.” Mirabella said with a sweetly polite tone. 

Leo’s brow furrowed, seemingly unwilling to accept the refusal. After pondering for a few seconds, he reached into his pocket, pulled out his phone, and said, “I don’t know what you like. How about thisyou take some money and buy something you want.”
