Amara was a bit lost. She had no idea about what to do. Seeing how angry Leo was, she didn’t know whether it was best to just go on and tell him where her brother probably was.
"Leo... you have to calm down and talk to . Did Ben get into trouble? You seem really pissed."
"He sure did get into trouble." Leo said, not wanting to disclose further than that.
Maybe he was overreacting, but the thought of what Benjamin had done made him really angry.
And he was angrier because of how Mia had flinched when their lips brushed. It showed how much that must have startled her and it was all because of Benjamin!
He wasn’t even out of the country yet and this was already happening. He had to put him in his place before traveling out.
"What did he do?" Amara asked in panic.
She had known Leo for a long ti and knew one major difference between the King twins was that unlike Louis who was usually calm and collected even when pissed, Leo always showed it when he was angry and right now, he was. But that hadn’t stopped her from having a crush on him for years until he told her he wasn’t interested in her.
"He isn’t in and.. I don’t know where he is currently. But I’ll let him know to give you a call imdiately he gets ho." She said when Leo still didn’t answer her.
"That won’t do. Call him now" Leo said, shaking his head.
He didn’t have Benjamin’s number, neither had he taken it from Mia’s phone because he wanted to et him directly.
Amara took out her phone with shaky hands and imdiately she dialed his number, Leo took the phone from her.
"What’s up sis?" Benjamin asked when he answered the call.
"Where are you?" Leo asked, trying to sound calm but the anger he felt betrayed him.
"Who is this? Why are you with my sister’s phone?" Leo heard the alarm in Benjamin’s voice when he asked.
"I was just wondering how you’d react if you heard I forced myself on your sister right here?" Leo said, trying not to give Benjamin any hint that it was him since he couldn’t recognize his voice.
"Who the hell are you? If you touch my sister, I am going to kill you!" Benjamin yelled into the phone while Amara looked at Leo in both confusion and fear since she didn’t understand what was happening.
"Then I hope to see you at your residence in less than five minutes." Leo said before disconnecting the call.
"What did Ben do to annoy you?" Amara asked carefully as she retrieved her phone from him.
"You don’t have to worry too much about it." He said, flashing her a smile which was really fake.
"He is my brother. And you are scaring ." She said.
"...." Leo still didn’t say a word. He didn’t want to let Amara know that her beloved brother had molested his woman. It was best to not say anything about it.
"Promise you aren’t going to hurt him?"
"I can’t promise you that." He shook his head again before dipping his hands inside his jean pockets.
Seeing how her eyes kept darting, Leo warned. "I know you must be planning how to call or text him not to co here but do not do that. If I et him outside this place, I’m going to do worse. But since I’m in your residence, I’d be able to control myself, that’s why I’m here." He inford her quietly.
Amara was really curious about what her brother had done. She had to return to work since she only ca here to get sothing but knew it was impossible to just leave now. It was just her and the maids at ho so she had to stay back until Benjamin ca back ho but for now, she knew she couldn’t handle things herself so she quickly hurried back inside the house and closed the door before dialing Chloe’s number.

Jas kept his eyes on the road as he drove while also looking at Mia’s phone from ti to ti.
Mia had been surprised when he took her phone from her and when she asked to know what he was searching for, he told her he was trying to track Leo’s location and he found it.
It was the sa residence where she had gone to for Benjamin’s party the other ti. Leo had gone to Benjamin’s house after all.
"So.. are you going to date him if he asked?" Jas asked her curiously.
"I don’t know." Mia answered honestly.
"I like him, but I don’t know about dating. It never crossed my mind that I’d be dating anyti soon. Do you think he is going to do sothing bad to Benjamin?" She quickly asked, changing the topic.
"If he doesn’t, I would." Jas answered with a casual shrug. "It’s kind of cool Leo is fighting for you even though you both aren’t dating yet. So I think he really has the plans to date you. You both talked about... you know... whatever that’s holding him back?" He asked, looking at her briefly.
"Hmm." She said in reply while he smiled and didn’t ask further.
"Cool."
"You think I probably should call Benjamin right? Since Leo isn’t picking up?"
Mia was still tensed. Everyone around her were all from elite families except Jeremy and she didn’t want to be caught up in the middle of any disagreent or fight. She wanted peace... for herself. She had to at least live quietly until she was out of the university.
Without waiting for Jas’ response, she began to dial Benjamin’s number but he also didn’t answer which made her even more tensed.
"Hold tight, we are almost there." Jas inford her as he took a bend.
Mia took in a really deep breath.
"Relax. It’s all going to be okay. Leo doesn’t seem like the irrational type."
"I think so too." She said, trying to hold unto that hope.
"How is Mira?" She changed the topic quickly. She hoped it was going to get her mind away from the whole thing,at least for now.
"Was about going to her place before your call ca in. Haven’t heard from her today." Jas said quickly as he took another turn.
Hearing her sigh, he turned to look at her.
"You both should resolve this thing between you two soon. I don’t want to be caught up in the middle."
"I know." She said with a sad smile. "I can’t stand quarreling with her."
Jas wanted to ask her about Mary, but he decided against it.
Mia tensed up when Benjamin’s place ca into view.
