"Are you sure you want to go?" Leo asked gently as he supported her, with Dave already handling her discharge procedure.


    "Yes, I promised Bry that I would be there. They might be nervous," Hera said, smiling sweetly at Leo, feeling more connected to him than before.


    "But you should stay here until the examination is over. I’ll visit youter, okay?" Hera didn’t realize she sounded like a concerned girlfriend, though it came off a bit nagging. Leo smiled broadly, happy with the feeling. Meanwhile, Zhane and the others watched with somber expressions, jealousy swirling in their chests.


    They all felt as though Hera was slipping away right before their eyes, helpless to intervene. The reason for their frustration was that Zhane hadn’t informed them about his request for Hera to give each of them an equal opportunity to court her. With no opportunity to disclose this information, they remained unaware. If they had known, their reactions might have been quite different.


    "Alright, I’ll listen to you. I’ll wait in my room," Leo said with a smile that remained constant. He continued to escort Hera, whose smaller stature made it difficult for passersby to catch a glimpse of her amidst the towering men acting as her protective barrier.


    Despite this, passersby couldn’t help but nce in their direction. The men surrounding Hera looked dashingly handsome, and even catching just a glimpse of her silhouette, she appeared ethereally beautiful,plementing the group. Onlookers spected that they were witnessing a film shoot in the hospital, with Hera and her entourage resembling actors performing a scene.


    "I’lle with you to support Bry and his family," Xavier spoke up from behind Hera, gently twirling her long hair. He, too, wanted to support Hera like Leo did, but Zhane stood so close to the other side of her that no one could rece him. Perhaps if he weren’t at work, he might have held Hera’s hand and supported her just like Leo did.


    Xavier sighed in resignation, feeling he couldn’t keep up with the others.


    "Alright, let’s go together," Hera replied with a slight nce back, offering Xavier a smile.


    Seeing her smile and agree with him, Xavier’s gloomy mood was reced by a smile. Soon after, they arrived in front of Zhane’s office where Bry and his family stood, apanied by a nurse waiting for Zhane to arrive.


    Seeing Hera and other familiar faces, Bry’s face lit up, and he hurried closer to greet her. "Sister, you’re here!!!" he eximed excitedly, reaching out as if to hold Hera’s hand, but finding himself surrounded by tall men who blocked his ess. Looking up at their impassive faces, he realized none would yield to a child and could only nod in understanding.


    Hera was also a little stumped because no one really wanted to yield their position, so she awkwardly asked. "How was your stay here in the city?"


    Hearing her question, Bry’s face lit up, forgetting everything else as his lips stretched into a wide grin, his eyes crinkling with joy. "Your friend’s ce was amazing, sister! It was so big and cozy, and I slept like a log," he eximed animatedly. "Early this morning, Father gave us a tour around the city, and we ate delicious food and yed some great games beforeing here!" His hands waved in the air as he recounted the story, his excitement evident in his voice and actions, his eyes sparkling with mirth.
