At those words, leo'y expression changed, his eyes narrowing dangerously. "Sister? When did I get another sister without knowing?"
Oliver's heart raced with alarm: His hot-tempered brother wouldn't make things difficult for Ella, would he?!
The two brothers locked eyes.
Oliver Grant spoke again, "This is Ella."
Leo Grant shifted his gaze from Oliver to Ella , as if suddenly recalling something.
In just a few seconds, his expression changed multiple times.
Finally, all his thoughts condensed into one question: "Ella? You're calling her that so affectionately. When did you two get so close?"
Oliver Grant: "..."
Leo didn't expect Oliver to keep him updated on everything he did, so he turned his attention back to Ella .
"I feel like I've seen this sister somewhere before."
Ella Grant faced Leo with a completely expressionless face.
"No recollection."
Leo scratched his head, surprised that Ella was being so uncooperative. He had even tried to give her an opening to talk, but she just ignored it.
However, looking at Ella's face, he really felt a sense of familiarity, as if he had seen her somewhere before. Why was that?
Seeing the way Leo was staring at Ella, practically glued to her face, Oliver felt a twinge of annoyance. He stepped forward and pulled Ella behind him.
"Can you at least act like an older brother?"
Leo Grant pouted. Who was it that promised everything would be fine and then cut off contact with this so-called sister?
He couldn't believe that Oliver Grant, the infamous ice king, was getting so chummy with her.
What a blatant traitor!
"Get out of my way! You're ruining my chance to bond with my sister!"
Three invisible black lines appeared on Ella Grant's forehead. These two were so loud.
Seeing that Leo wasn't listening, Oliver Grant decided to stop arguing. He pressed his lips together and silently stared at the youngest brother.
In an instant, the atmosphere around Oliver shifted, and Leo could clearly feel the change in his presence.
"Alright, alright, I won't mess with you anymore. But what are you really here for? You can't be just out shopping, can you?"
Leo didn't buy that Oliver had that much free time.
"The family gathering is next week. I'm bringing her to pick up some things," Oliver said, glancing meaningfully at Leo .
Leo smirked.
"Why didn't you say so earlier? Fine, no need to keep circling around this. I'll take care of it."
"Come on, I'll take you to my secret base."
