Chapter 75 Leaving The Country

• Enzo sank back into the plush cushions of his couch, a heavy weight settling in the pit of his stomach as he awaited Kai's response. How could he navigate this conversation without angering his brother once more? The thought gnawed at him, a knot of tension coiling in his gut.
• Kai's pointed question hung in the air, his gaze piercing as he sought Enzo's reaction. Enzo swallowed hard, searching for the right words to placate his brother's simmering temper. "Yeah, I uh... I had some of the food," he admitted reluctantly, bracing himself for Kai's inevitable disapproval.
• To his surprise, Kai's expression softened, a hint of resignation creeping into his features. "Can't blame you for that, I suppose," he conceded with a resigned sigh. Enzo let out a silent breath of relief, grateful that his brother seemed willing to let the matter slide.
