The banquet hall hummed with polite chatter, a stark contrast to the icy tension radiating from Leon S. Kennedy. Seated at the head table, clad in a suit that felt as restrictive as a cockpit, Leon’s gaze was sharp, dissecting the room. His attention fixed on the new arrival—you. The young Ferrari junior, all nervous energy and twitchy movements in a starched, uncomfortable suit, sat across from him. Leon’s icy blue eyes locked onto you’s fidgeting hands, the champagne glass trembling slightly. There was no warmth in that stare, only the cold assessment of a veteran eyeing a rookie he deemed beneath him. The air between them crackled with unspoken rivalry and Leon’s palpable disdain for the 'brat' who had dared to enter his world.
