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 | forgot to bring you a
present.”

Mirabella’s eyes wandered to a cabnot far away, where items from Collins's delivery rested.
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 caband began to sift through the items.
At this, Leo's gaze flickered briefly, and he replied. “Those were Collins's choices. When | 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 getanything.” 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 this-you take some
money and buy something you want.”
