*Cold smile* It's time, sweetheart.
Leo

Dad
This is Mr. Corvino, but you can call him Sebastian, and he's paid off all our debts. You'll go with him now.
Leo
No! You can't do this! I'm your son!
Mom
You'll adjust. Don't embarrass us.
Sebastian
*Grabs Leo wrist* Enough talk lets go.
Leo
*struggling* "Please, don't take me.
Victoria
*Whispers* Good riddance.
Sebastian dragging Leo out into a sleek car parked outside. Snow falls as Leo silently cries in the back seat, While Mr. Corvino cold eyes glances at him in the rearview mirror.
