Chapter 836 Dress Accordingly
At those words, Minerva instantly sprang up as if someone had stepped on her tail. Her reaction was so sharp, it practically confirmed Athena’s suspicion.
After all, Minerva had been worrying about gaining weight—not just for vanity’s sake, but because a part of her feared that looking a little heavier might make her less attractive to men.
She was no longer with Alexi, true, but that didn’t mean she had given up on love. If anything, she was determined to find someone even better—someone who could outshine Alexi in every way. Not for revenge, but to prove to herself that loving the wrong man once didn’t mean she was completely blind. It was simply a mistake... one she intended never to repeat.
"You guys seem to be having a good time?" Hera’s voice called out as she suddenly peeked her head through the door. Without waiting for an invitation, she strolled into the room and plopped down beside Athena, immediately reaching for the snacks.
The moment she started munching, she could feel several eyes on her.
"W-What?" she asked, startled, her cheeks puffed out like a squirrel mid-bite.
Athena burst into laughter.
"See this girl?" she said, gesturing at Hera with amusement. "She loves eating more than I do! I was only influenced by her! But look—she’s got a tiny waist and just the right amount of curves in all the right places. So, Minerva, if you’re worried about getting fat, just look at this one and chill."
She gave Hera a hearty pat on the shoulder, which quickly turned into a series of thumps on her back as Hera nearly choked on the food in her mouth.
