Chapter 671 Nice And Simple
Athena let out a small cackle, treating her words as nothing more than a passing joke. But when she noticed Hera rubbing her chin in thought, her amusement faltered.
"Well... it’s not impossible," Hera mused, eyeing Athena with curiosity.
Athena’s laughter died instantly, her expression cracking as realization sank in. She had never expected her joke to be taken seriously.
If it were true, it meant she would be dragged into the drama—no longer just an onlooker enjoying her popcorn and Coca-Cola while Hera dished out face-slaps with eloquent words and actions.
Instead, she’d have to actively participate in the chaos. The thought alone made her shudder.
Athena felt her face turn ashen.
Sure, she could argue like a shrew when needed, but when it came to real battles, she was nothing more than a sitting duck surrounded by tigers and lions.
Unlike Hera, she had no combat skills to rely on. Just the thought of being dragged into the chaos sent a wave of nervousness through her—no, not just nervousness. Fear.
"Girl, don’t scare me like that... In the novel, both the original female lead and the second female lead faced life-and-death threats from your old man, Master Avery."
"And since we already know that roles and halos can be stolen, that means someone else could take his place as the minor villain—one who would seek revenge on the second female lead, who was originally Minerva."
"And if that happens, the original female lead will inevitably get dragged in too, since she was the one who pushed the male leads to lead the fight in the first place."
