Chapter 200 Dave Taking an Action
Without Hera noticing, her hand had become intertwined with Leo’s. She wasn’t sure when it happened, but Leo wore a nonchalant smile as if he hadn’t notice either. Hera decided not to mention it and let it be. Soon, murmurs began to rise around them, but she ignored them, focusing on the fact that she was getting closer to the front of the line.
"Next!" The call brought her back to reality, and she realized she was now third in line. Suddenly, her free hand was grabbed, jerking her back. Assuming it was Alexi again, she turned around, irritation bubbling up, ready to confront him. But instead, she was met with the sight of a long, phoenix-like burgundy hair tail, beautiful amethyst eyes sparkling at the sight of her, and a smirk playing on his lips.
"I finally found you," Dave said, gripping Hera’s hand firmly, just as Leo did with her other hand. Dave wore a radiant smile, realizing that despite his close friends’ interest in Hera, they were too slow in making a move. He decided it was better for him to act instead of letting Leo have her to himself. After all, as the saying goes, it’s best to keep the wealth within the family. He believed it was better to keep the beauty within their circle.
Unlike his other friends, Dave had the thickest skin and wouldn’t let a chance slip away once it presented itself. So, even though he was the last to develop an interest in her, he had no intention of dilly-dallying; he wanted to go after the prize right away.
Seeing Leo putting in an effort to win Hera over, Dave didn’t want to be left behind.
"What are you doing here?" Hera asked, eyeing Dave suspiciously. Leo’s grip on her hand tightened, revealing his possessiveness. He knew exactly what Dave was up to and didn’t want him anywhere near her. If he could, he would have hidden her behind him.
Dave glanced at Leo with a taunting smirk before redirecting his attention back to Hera. "I wanted to see you, so I came here to find you," he said, his seductive voice sending a warm current through Hera’s body.
’Is he doing this on purpose? Seducing me in public?’ Hera discreetly glanced around and saw female students watching with dreamy eyes. Who wouldn’t want to be the subject of such affection, being fought over by two masterpieces of men? Their interactions were also shared online, catching the attention of the remaining male leads. They were seething with anger, not having realized Dave had grown interested in Hera. They now regretted bringing him along to visit her the day before.
