“No way, man. Go check the top trending post on Twitter. There's an auclip, Summer confessed,” Collins insisted, thinking Leo was just trying to protect Summer's dignity.
Leo’s frown deepened. “I'll have a look.” “Good. Swing by the office later. We still gotta deal wits Jay mess,” said Collins.

If Jay had been upfront about his mistake, Leo might have thought Jay had sdecency, but the guy had pushed all the blonto Summer... This eagerness to wash 11:18 ‘hands of gullt was a clear sign of a moral compass that had gone haywire.
Putting his phone away, Leo freshened up and went downstairs. In the dining room, the family was having breakfast. Leo joined them, pulling out a chair and sitting down.
With the Twitter fiasco on his mind, he was absentminded through breakfast, dropping his toast on the table twice.
Mirabella took a sip of her orange juice and glanced at him. “Leo?” Hearing his sister's voice, Leo snapped out of his daze and nodded, “Yeah, what's up, Mirabella?” “You look like you're on another planet,” she said casually.
Leo’s grip on his fork tightened, but he looked up at their parents seated across the table. Discussing Summer in front of them didn’t seem right, so he simply shook his head. “Just didn’t sleep well.”
