The Calling
It was like a dying flower suddenly blooming in Apollo's heart.
"You think I look like their son?" Apollo asked, his gaze turning cold.
"You do resemble him, haha," June chuckled. "Mr. Froi and Madam Gina are good people. I've spoken to them a few times. The Leones are all good people—even their family head has no enemies among the other families. They're one of the leading forces in the city, the Leone family head alongside Master Mathias, the two Core Creations."
Apollo remained silent. His heart pounded, urging him to ask more questions, but he said nothing, simply looking out the window.
The carriage continued its way back to the street where Apollo's beggar spot was. Once it stopped, Apollo opened the door and jumped down.
"Thank you," Apollo said.
"You saved Miss Bel; it's the least I could do," June replied.
"Alright," Apollo nodded, starting toward his spot but pausing. "Do you think he's still alive? The lost Leone heir?"
