Leo was unfazed, his expression as stern as usual. It felt like he didn’t even care Toby was holding him.

Feeling defeated, Toby let him go. He was about to back off, but Leo gripped his shoulder and pushed him down. “What do you know?”

Toby froze. Even when he’s angry, he’s still smart. He knows something. But Toby wasn’t going to tell him what he knew. All he did was smile. “Just joshing.” He pulled Leo’s fingers away and left.

Leo frowned. He knew Toby. He was not one quick to anger, and yet he had flown into a rage twice in a span of a single day. He’s bothered. That was why Leo came. He needed to know what Toby was bothered about. Shadows were cast upon Leo, and he narrowed his eyes. A moment later, he stared at the ground and called Victor. “Look into Toby.”

Twenty minutes later, Victor showed up, hidden in the shadows and standing before Leo.

When Leo raised his head, Victor said, “He’s been sending his men to look into Ms. Dillon.”

Victor knew what Leo wanted to know before he even said it, and that was why Leo liked him. There was a reason he was willing to pay for Victor’s sky-high price. He’s looking into Amelie? Leo paused for a moment, his brows furrowed into a frown once more. He didn’t like anyone looking into Amelie, especially not Toby. Yet he remained stern, refusing to fly into a rage. “What precisely did he want to know?”

“I am not sure.”
