Chapter 349 Meeting Bry Again
"I guess you’re right," Rafael said, his gaze fixed on where Hera had disappeared. "This situation is better than not having her. And honestly, I don’t feel there’s anything wrong with us sharing Hera. Maybe it’s because we’ve been friends for so long—I mean, besides vying for her attention, it just feels... natural."
"They say it’s better to share with family than let others benefit," Luke said with a shrug.
"Did Dave teach you that?" Rafael asked, laughing.
"Yeah," Luke replied casually. He genuinely believed it was a better solution than losing Hera to someone else and monopolizing her for himself.
"But that’s usually about family wealth and treasure," Rafael chuckled, laughing heartily. Luke’s expression darkened as he shook his head and walked off, leaving Rafael laughing uncontrollably in front of the campus. Rafael didn’t mind; he relished the opportunity to tease Luke, knowing such chances were rare.
Once he was done having his fun, Rafael headed back to his own car and drove off toward his office. He was eager to tackle the mountain of contracts and plans piled up on his desk, dreading the workload. The thought alone gave him a headache, so he hurriedly made his way to get started.
On the other hand, Hera felt her face burning with embarrassment. It seemed that whenever she was around the male leads, including Leo, she always got swept up in their pace. While it was flattering to be wanted, she realized she wasn’t quite ready for the intensity of their attention.
As Hera ventured deeper into the campus, her composure gradually returned. She took the time to rearrange her thoughts, pushing everything to the back of her mind. She recognized that this kind of attention was inevitable—after all, she had kissed Luke back willingly. Instead of resisting, she decided to embrace the situation, understanding that fighting it would only cause her more pain. Why let that happen when she could simply enjoy the experience?
After coming to terms with her feelings, Hera arrived at the building where her class would take place and headed inside. As a well-known celebrity, especially after the events earlier, she quickly found herself surrounded by admirers eager to get her attention. They chattered excitedly about her, much like fan girls. Hera didn’t mind; she knew that stepping into the entertainment industry meant sacrificing the privacy she and her family once cherished.
