He was quite offended that she reduced his actions to the equivalence of marking his territory like a dog.  He let her say her piece, took a deep breath and responded in a calm, collected tone.  "<b><i><span class="fixed-color" style="color:rgb(97, 189, 109)">I'm sorry for how I reacted. At the time, I thought you kissed the other guy to get a reaction out of me to see how much I liked you.  I'm sorry for misreading all of this. I'm not here to play games. It really upsets me that the first person you kiss on this show isn't even the person you coupled up with.  And the fact that you couldn't even take a second to understand my perspective and apologize for intimately kissing another random guy in front of me really bothers me.  Again, I'm not here to play games. I'm not going to wait on the sidelines for you to talk to other guys to figure out I'm the best option for you.  Good night.</span></i></b>"<br/><br/>Rather than following Brook into the shared bedroom, he instead walked back out to the pool area and found a lounge chair as far away from the rest of the crowd as possible.  He simply laid back, put his hands behind his head, closed his eyes and couldn't help but think he was a fool for expecting anything more than being just another guy after opening up all of his deepest insecurities.  He then started to think that Brook was just on the show to grow her following on TikTok and the more drama she stirred up, the more airtime she would get which translates to followers on her socials. At this point he'd just assume sleep out under the stars then to give her any more free publicity.  If anyone was being used and treated like a dog, it was Léon.
