Chapter 241 When Men Being Petty
Who said that men couldn’t be petty?
Now that he had made his arrangements, Leo felt confident that even if Xavier managed to send an SOS message to his friends to keep a watchful eye on Leo and prevent him from getting closer to Hera, they would find themselves in deep trouble, at least for a few days. If they were capable, perhaps they could resolve the situation in two days.
Leo happily continued reading as he stole a glance at Hera’s busy silhouette in the kitchen. Then, he remembered that he had overlooked one person and quickly sent another instruction to his assistant.
[Leo: One more thing, ensure that more urgent patients are transferred to Everett Hospital every 3-5 hours. This will ensure that all doctors here are occupied, giving Zhane no chance to interact with Hera while she’s here.]
Luke, Rafael, and Dave were on their way back to the hospital after learning about what had happened to Leo and Hera at the hotel. They were prepared to confront Leo, albeit discreetly, knowing that Hera wouldn’t stand still knowing that Leo was just another victim like her. However, before they could even reach the hospital entrance, each of them received a phone call. Their expressions darkened as they listened intently to the news conveyed over the line.
Now that he had covered all bases and sent troubles in those male vixen’s ways, Leo felt proud of himself for protecting his future wife from the covetous claws of those men and enjoyed watching Hera instead, his eyes crinkling into a crescent and his lips tugging upward seeing that Hera was there for him.
On the bedside table, Leo’s phone buzzed. Even before he checked it, a triumphant smile began to play on his lips. As expected, Terry’s reply had arrived.
[Terry: Sir, all done.]
They say not to kick someone when they’re down, but Leo felt tempted to do just that to those men who coveted what was rightfully his.
