After an hour of nonstop assessments and comings and goings, the doctors and nurses finally left Leo's ICU room to check on others, like Terry and the rest.
It was only once the chaos had settled that Zhane noticed something odd: more of the veteran soldiers were stationed in almost every corner of the entire floor.
Aside from Leo and his group, no one else was allowed on this level. The heavy presence of medical staff made it clear that Leo and the others were being treated as VIP patients, receiving the highest priority and respect.
Zhane couldn't help but sneak a glance at Hera, who was silently staring at the ICU's glass wall. From their position, they couldn't see Leo lying in the bed—only the various machines surrounding him and the sterile white walls.
Hera seemed lost in thought, her mind clearly racing with countless worries. Zhane knew he couldn't stop her from overthinking, but he could offer her comfort in the form of his presence.
