Everyone watching the show was munching on popcorn as they alternated between reading the VIP comments and following the online confession. No matter where they looked, they were bombarded with juicy gossip, making it an endlessly entertaining experience.
For those present at the scene, the sight of Hera and Rafael standing so close together was captivating. They could see every contour of their faces, reminiscent of an immortal couple—or more fittingly, an immortal fairy and a demon emperor. Viewers’ imaginations were already spinning elaborate stories and roles for the two, envisioning them as a perfect on-screen couple of the good and evil falling in love.
Right now, Hera didn’t know how to respond to the unexpected confession. Although she had been contemplating her feelings for the male leads and was pinning for them, she always thought it would be a daunting task to navigate the complexities of their fates. The reality, however, had hit her differently, and she was unprepared to accept a confession herself. In fact, she had been preparing to make confessions to all six men, including Leo.
If she could allow herself to be selfish for once, she would want to be with Leo too, even if it meant putting her life on the line to protect him. For her, Leo represented the most genuine connection she had, unlike the male leads, who felt more like a task she needed to complete. Even if she developed feelings for them, she felt they would never match the authentic connection she shared with Leo.
But the real issue wasn’t what she wanted; it was what Leo wanted. Unlike the male leads, who are destined to share a woman, Leo is different. He might be destined to love and marry just one woman. The thought of this stung a little as she long realized her feelings, but she also knew it would be unfair to impose her feelings on him. She would be hurting him if she did, knowing how unjust that would be.
That’s why Hera’s relationship with Leo hadn’t changed much. She was focusing her attention on the male leads she needed to make them fall in love with her, as she wasn’t sure if she had the luxury of time to play hard to get. The story was already unfolding, and Alice was starting to make moves, even if it meant jeopardizing her own character. Progress was being made regardless.
