Dana feels like her knees become weak, hearing how lovely he calls her name. "Ye-Yes..."
She tried hard to hide her feelings from him. She didn't want Leo to know what was on her mind at that moment. She liked him but never dared say it, afraid he would fire her.
"Perfect!" Leo smiled when he saw that Dana was no longer tense but looked as calm as usual. "Dana, if you're uncomfortable answering, you don't need to. Why are your parents suddenly asking you to come back?"
Leo was curious to know what happened in her family.
Dana clenched her fists tightly. She felt too embarrassed to mention the matter. But, seeing his curious gaze, her mouth betrayed her.
"My father called. He said my mother was hospitalized, but when I asked my little brother, he said… no. Mom is fine. But—" she pauses, lowering her head, unable to meet his gaze.
"But what!?" Leo couldn't help but ask when he saw her seem reluctant to continue.
