Chương 174: Confrontation

( Real World )

Leo was living the life both within the game and in real life after his meeting with both Amanda and Luke within the game ended smoothly.

He no longer hid away in the halls and was back to his jolly old self.

On this particular day, however, it was Luke who emerged from the game, with a distinct scowl on his face.

"Hey, what's got you down, brother?" Leo inquired, noticing Luke's preoccupation and the stormy expression clouding his face.

For a brief moment, Luke's gaze met Leo's, hinting at an internal struggle before he opted for silence as he offered a strained smile instead. "It's nothing significant," he managed to say, before heading towards the bathroom.

At this juncture, Leo could sense an invisible weight on Luke's shoulders, however, he wrestled with the dilemma of whether to delve deeper into this subject or to respect his brother's apparent wish for privacy.
