Leo harbored no anger; instead, he felt a sense of contentment knowing that his assistant possessed a high emotional intelligence andprehended his mission without explicit instruction. Leo even considered boosting his assistant’s year-end bonus as a token of appreciation for his astuteness.


    "Are you tired?" Leo asked with concern but his eyes also had a hint of longingness as if he really wanted her to stay but was torn because he did not want her to be too tired. He wasn’t even able to masked his expression in front of Hera.


    Hera’sughter softened her gaze into crescents as she replied, "No, would you care to take a stroll around the vige before dinner?" Already moving forward, she gestured for Leo to join her, setting off with a graceful step.


    Leo eagerly trailed behind Hera, his eyes crinkling with delight as his smile stretched from ear to ear. The viewers witnessed a scene reminiscent of arge ck wolf—initially appearing intimidating, yet now happily wagging its tail with its tongue lolling out as it followed its master, hopping in delight.


    [AuntieNextDoor: Isn’t he just adorable?!]


    [HeraismySister: Absolutely! I’m already smitten with their chemistry!]


    [XavierisLife: Hey, sister upstairs, weren’t you all about shipping Hera and Xavier just a moment ago? Why the sudden change of heart?!!]


    [HeraismySister: @XavierisLife Sister, don’t be upset, okay?! I simply couldn’t decide between them for Hera! But if they’re willing to share her, I won’tin anymore.]


    As if sparked by that singlement, a sudden silence fell over the chatroom, each person pausing to seriously contemte the scene before them. There was Hera, seated elegantly in the center, holding the neckties of each man in her hands, exuding an air of regal authority amidst a circle of handsome men. It was as if she were a queen, surrounded by her loyal courtiers.


    Rather than continuing to argue amongst themselves, Hera’s fans redirected their attention toward the Director and the staff, making a collective request for another option in the poll: shipping Hera with both men. The Director felt as if he had swallowed a fly upon seeing the influx of requests, realizing this wasn’t just a solitary user’s suggestion—more and more users were echoing the same sentiment, unable to decide between the two options presented.


    For them, this was nothing more than a fun game, as long as they got to feast their eyes on the beauty of all three individuals.


    Reluctantly, the Director added the choice to the poll, and as soon as it was posted, the numbers skyrocketed, showing no signs of slowing down. This decision sparked yet another trending topic on the inte. Some users began crafting coges of images from Hera and Xavier’s time in the vige, seamlessly inserting Leo’s pictures sourced from thepetition.


    This coge quickly circted across the inte, amassing millions of likes. The seamless integration of images resulted in a visually stunningposition that captivated viewers and provided a soothing aesthetic experience for the eyes.


    While the people involved in this were leisurely strolling around the vige, led by Hera. Xavier also did not give the two a chance to be alone and followed behind them, so when Hera looked back, she saw Xavier like an abandoned child following from a distance, his expression tugging at her heartstrings. And she somehow felt bad seeing him making that expression that she had to stop in the middle of the road as she looked at him, Xavier also came to a stop, pausing a few feet away from them.


    "Was he keeping his distance because I didn’t invite him to join us on the walk around the vige?" Hera pondered, gently rubbing the tip of her nose. After a moment’s reflection, she turned to Xavier and asked, "Brother Xavier, would you like toe along?" She offered a guilty smile, feeling as though she had been caught cheating on her boyfriend. That’s how his gaze on her and Leo made her feel at that moment.


    Upon hearing Hera’s words, Xavier’s expression brightened, and without a word, he nodded enthusiastically while smiling at her. Fearful that her offer might be retracted, he hastened his pace, quickly joining Hera’s side. Not forgetting to send Leo a sly side nce, hinting at a taunt.


    Surprisingly, Leo showed no signs of anger. Why would he? What mattered most to him was Hera’s thoughts and feelings. Having experienced the heartbreak of relinquishing his feelings for her to another man, Leo harbored no concerns about seeing another individual wandering around his fiancée. He was determined not to repeat past mistakes and was prepared to go to any lengths to win the heart of his future wife.


    To achieve his goal, Leo couldn’t afford to appear petty or narrow-minded in front of Hera. Why should he let any random man wandering around his wife bother him, especially when he is certain that the other man is already intimidated by Leo’s presence? A smirk yed across Leo’s lips as he continued to shadow Hera closely around the vige.


    He would ask Hera questions about the vige, delving into her thoughts on its culture and atmosphere. Surprisingly, these inquiries never failed to ignite Hera’s enthusiasm. She would respond with vigor, eagerly exining her impressions of the vige, its people, and the natural beauty surrounding them. Hera spoke of the vige’s charm, describing it as a haven where she could escape the stresses of city life and reconnect with nature.


    Thesements also resonated deeply with viewers who were contemting taking a break from city life to unwind and relieve their stress. Many found themselves rting to the busyness and mental exhaustion of their daily urban existence. Hera’s words sparked a desire in them to reconnect with nature, prompting thoughts of venturing into the wilderness. The idea of spending time immersed in nature seemed to promise not only physical rejuvenation but also mental restoration.


    As Hera and Leo chatted away during their stroll, Xavier couldn’t shake the feeling that Leo was intentionally sidelining him. Vexed, Xavier struggled to find a topic to engage Hera with. It seemed Leo knew Hera so well, effortlessly steering the conversation towards topics he knew she enjoyed discussing and responses she’d appreciate.
