Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted by Eleven Jewell

Leighton hesitated to share these thoughts with Nicole. It was mainly because during their previous "relationship’' publicity stunt, Nicole unintentionally bumped into his family while they were together.

Even his father, who typically disapproved of entertainment industry stars, seemed to approve of her, silently expressing, "You've done well, kid, finding such a beautiful and remarkable partner."

Nicole's behavior made Leighton question if his previous perceptions of her were biased or exaggerated. But after they finished eating, she surprised him in the car, saying, "Didn't realize you're such a mommy's boy, needing your mom to clean your fish for you."
