Leo grabbed his phone, thumbing through the chat history with a sense of unease. The message [Don’t worry, he doesn’t have the right to refuse] sent a chill down his spine. That menacing vibe… No way his sister would talk like that.

This couldn’t be her messaging on Messenger. His sister was never this aggressive.

“Huh?” Collins seemed confused by his question.

“Never mind.” Leo’s eyes returned to the phone screen.
