Chapter 216 Going to the Hospital

 

Dave's voice cut through the tension, "Why don't we just take him to the hospital? With Zhane there, Leo's tests won't be compromised. If someone's after him, or even after me, they might try to cover their tracks now that their plan's failed." Despite his anger, Dave refused to let it cloud his judgment. While part of him yearned to exact revenge on whoever gave Leo the opportunity, he couldn't shake the suspicion that Leo orchestrated it himself, painting himself as the victim to win Hera's sympathy and take advantage of her.

These thoughts were fueled by his own speculations about who had gained from the ordeal—only Leo. Consequently, all his suspicion was directed at him. Dave couldn't pinpoint the origin of his dislike for Leo, but from the moment he laid eyes on him, hostility bubbled inside. Seeing Leo close to Hera only intensified his negative impression, making it natural for Dave to question Leo's intentions.
