He felt sorry for Hayley.

There was a momentary silence as the atmosphere around them shifted with Hayley's heart still beating erratically in her chest. Leonardo remained silent, unsure of how to react.

After a moment, Hayley finally struggled to regain her composure and also mustered the courage to speak.

Her eyes darted to Leonardo's, her disbelief at what he had just told her, still palpable.
