The man was about the same height as Yves King, and quite handsome too. His well-tailored casual suit underscored a successful man's demeanor. Although he had a buzz cut, the gold-rimmed glasses he wore lent him a certain scholarly charm.
The man's respectable demeanor relaxed Faye Owen's slightly nervous mood. She had prepared herself for the worst regarding Yves's comrade, even if he was a crude and buff brawny man, she would tolerate him, to give Yves face.

"Leo, let me introduce you." After their hug, Yves, with a big smile, pulled him over and said: "This is your sister-in-law, Faye Owen."
