Chapter 708 Invited By Sasha
"Oh?! You’re already heading to the venue this early?" Athena exclaimed, her tone carrying a hint of surprise. "There’s still plenty of time! I’m sure the organizers I hired are still making their final adjustments to ensure everything is perfect. The fashion show isn’t until the afternoon, followed by the banquet in the evening. So why are you rushing over so soon?"
Her voice turned slightly pouty, clearly puzzled by Hera’s early departure.
Hera chuckled, effortlessly steering the car as the morning breeze kissed her skin. "Then tell me, did you call me this early just to gossip about my love life?" she teased, her tone playful as she enjoyed the warmth of the sun filtering through the windshield.
"Hahaha, you got me!" Athena admitted with a playful laugh. "I just wanted to check if your gardeners did a good job plowing the land last night—making sure you’re glowing beautifully and brightly for the runway later!"
She burst into loud laughter, and Hera could practically picture her best friend rolling around in bed, thoroughly enjoying herself after teasing her.
"Who would’ve thought? My demure and innocent best friend—the same one who used to struggle just to keep up with my lessons about men—would end up with six men catering to her every need, day and night. Ah! I’m so jealous!" Athena’s voice was full of exaggerated drama, giggling away as if she were narrating a soap opera.
"Seems like you’re not the least bit worried about your fashion show later," Hera remarked, amused.
"Nope! But I am worried about you," Athena replied, her voice dripping with mischief. The smirk was practically audible, making Hera roll her eyes once again.
"Then how about I ask Auntie to find you a suitable partner so you can have someone to ’plow your land’ too?" Hera teased, barely holding back her laughter. "I’m sure she’d be more than happy to offer plenty of options. You could have seven—one for each day of the week—so you’d even outdo me."
