As Leander pondered, Lionel got a notification on his phone. "He's here," Lionel showed him the text. "My dad wants me home. He NEEDS me."
Leander pressed his lips. He wanted to tell Lionel that his father might be trying to use this chance to bring him back to the family. But he didn't know if he can speak about this to Lionel.
He's his father and he should be standing by his father's side if he needed him. Leander knew that Lionel's father wouldn't have sent this text easily. There must be a big trouble.
But will Lionel go to his father? He cannot blame Lionel if he does that. It would be a total waste of everything he did till then to stay away. But he will understand.
That's what family does. They leave everything else and would stand for their family if they need them. Right? Right… That's what he is doing.
