Chapter 300 What Hera Can and Can’t Do
Logan let out a nervous chuckle and began fidgeting with his fingers. "Actually, Senior, you misunderstood. The Music Director has set a debut date for me, and I’ve been preparing non-stop since early this morning up until just a few minutes ago. Every day that would pass makes me more anxious just thinking about it, unsure if I can meet the expectations and live up to the support I’ve been given."
Logan’s body was tense and rigid as he spoke, reflecting his nervousness and uncertainty. Hera, sensing his struggle, stepped closer and patted his shoulder reassuringly. "I know it’s tough right now, but hang in there. One day, you’ll look back and laugh at how wimpy you were." She offered a warm chuckle with a hint of teasing remark as she began to walk away. Though Logan’s expression was hidden from her view, Hera was content knowing that he was on the path to his debut.
This meant that more people would soon hear Logan’s remarkable singing voice and even Hera was excited for it. Given her packed schedule for the day, Daisy had arranged for food to be delivered, and they ate together in the dance studio during a 15-minute break whenever Hera needed a rest from her demanding practice. Understanding how hard Hera worked, Daisy took the liberty to also go ahead to the parking lot to prepare a car to ensure Hera could get home comfortably after a long day.
Leaving Logan waiting in the lobby for his assistant, Hera focused on ensuring she could get home and rest. Although she suspected there might be more to his worries than what he had shared, she respected his choice not to elaborate and couldn’t force him to open up. Unsure if his explanation was entirely truthful, Hera decided to step back and wait for further developments.
Hera realized that if she constantly interfered in Logan’s affairs, he might become too dependent on her, which could hinder his growth, especially since she couldn’t be there for him all the time. She believed it was important for him to handle his current challenges on his own, stepping in only when absolutely necessary.
Besides, Logan needed to learn how to leverage his resources and talents to his advantage if he truly wanted to succeed. Hera chuckled to herself, recalling how she was in a similar position two weeks ago when she returned to inherit the Consortium from her grandfather. This experience made her feel a deeper connection to Logan, as she saw a reflection of herself in his struggles.
What Hera could offer Logan was her unwavering support, care, and confidence in him, especially while he struggled to find his own. She watched Logan’s desolate figure through the lobby’s clear glass as her car drove away, his silhouette shrinking into the distance. It felt as though her little brother was being unfairly treated, and she felt a pang of frustration knowing she couldn’t directly help him. With a heavy sigh, Hera gazed out the window at the brightly lit cityscape, where even at this late hour, the buildings were alive with people working late into the night.
Hera was exhausted but satisfied. Her stamina, which she took great pride in, held up even through the grueling practices with her tutors. Despite the intense sessions, she didn’t falter, and it was gratifying to see her tutors nod in approval. She had made a positive impression on them, and it seemed they appreciated her approach as much as she valued theirs in tackling the practice.
