Leo leaned back on the chair, satiated. He unconsciously stuffed a lot of food in his mouth while staring at his uncle and Riley. He ended up so full.
Afterward, he heard Riley excuse himself telling them he would like to walk around to help digest his dinner.
Leo wanted to take the opportunity to set his plan in motion. He started to stand up and was about to voice his desire to join Riley when his uncle spoke first.
"I'll join you."
Then his uncle turned to Leo. Looking at him pointedly, his uncle drawled, "Didn't you say you wanted to thank Oliver and the cook for the delicious dinner? Go and convey your thanks."
Leo did not know what to say. He wanted to refute his uncle, but his lie would come to light. However, he still tried one last attempt. However, his uncle did not give him a chance.
