As he spoke, Solomon gave Homelander a knowing look, hinting that if he kept talking, Solomon would reveal that Homelander had asked him to spy on everyone.
Homelander's brow furrowed further, and the red glow in his eyes gradually faded. He was clearly weighing the pros and cons.
"Wow~"
Homelander suddenly turned back toward Starlight, whose face was still pale, his tone carrying a hint of amusement.
"Starlight, you must have something special about you. This is the first time I've seen JS care so much about someone. After all, he doesn't even care about Maeve!"
