Chapter 288 Wanted to Soar High

With her words, Hera subtly conveyed to Luke that she had been on the phone with her best friend Athena, which had distracted her and caused her to lose track of time. Luke smiled gently at her but didn't say anything. He then gestured for her to sit back down in her chair and helped pull it out for her, displaying his gentlemanly manners.

Luke studied Hera's face silently, his gaze steady and unwavering. Hera could sense the intensity behind his eyes, as if he could see through her, right into her thoughts and emotions. She felt exposed, vulnerable under his scrutiny, as though he could discern every hidden aspect of her being with just a glance.
