Chapter 627 Who’s Fault?
For now, the focus was on building a strong foundation for the future—his son and daughter understanding that their financial independence would come sooner if they remained disciplined.

With the driver suitably rewarded, Leo, Luke, Xavier, and Dave entered the exclusive elevator, heading straight to the presidential suite without any interruptions.
Hera, meanwhile, clung nervously to Leo, burying her face in his chest as if seeking solace.
’Athena, damn it! You jinxed me! You started this whole ’stealing the male leads’ thing and even having one more than Alice in the novel. Now, I don’t even know if I’ll survive till tomorrow,’ Hera thought, covering her face in exasperation.

Athena would tease Hera right back, but now that it was Hera living this reality, she realized just how hard it was to emulate Alice, the supposed master of time management.

She could feel her body undergoing subtle changes. Despite being intimate with Xavier just last night and with Leo earlier, a persistent yearning still coursed through her.
Was this insatiable pull yet another effect of the infamous female lead halo?
