The Love Expert, LadyDevimon

Then, under their stunned gazes, the light radiating from the Lovesick Heartbreak Red grew brighter still!

Angewomon waved a hand, and her power enveloped the entire room. No one outside would notice anything amiss.

Several more minutes passed. Bathed in the faint glow, the petals of the Lovesick Heartbreak Red slowly unfurled.
