Lena was shocked that the injured CEO woke up and dropped the key information about her kidnapping. The young Luthor wasted no time and called her friends from downstairs to notify that (Y/N) is awake. They talk among each other while Lena distances herself from the small reunion. When they discovered who was behind this kidnapping, Ben did not hesitate to find some useful information to blackmail Morgan Edge. Rex called Anthony to keep a close on the old man and try to figure out his daily routine.

Lena wanted to take part in this revenge not just for (Y/N) but for the rest of National City. Edge is known for abusing his real estate powers like stealing from the poor by taking their homes, kicking out homeless, pleasuring the rich, and so on. She wants to end that.

The older CEO did not stop her friends from planning and just simply agreed. All of (Y/N)'s did not converse with her very long and wanted their friend to get some more rest. All that was left in the room was Lena and Jen.

"Lena. I was just telling (Y/N) that you don't need to worry about the DEO's project anymore. My team and I have decided to take over and we're almost finished with it. Once the devices are done, we promise not to use your invention, we will give back all the blueprints and notes. You can come to Lunar Industries one day to check out our systems that we didn't grab any information about your antisonic watch." Jen says loud for (Y/N) to also listen about this information.

"Jen, you didn't have to do that. I'm capable of finishing the project. I don't want to upset Director J'onn and-"

"Lena, don't worry about Director J'onn. I informed him about the situation and he agreed to it. Plus I might have told him that you'll be helping (Y/N) recover so that he can let you go."

(Y/N) groans in disapproval. It seems like the older CEO wanted to throw the nearby lampshade at her best friend.

"Anyways, if you can't take care of her. I'll let Sarah or Sophia do it. You're a CEO as well. I totally understand. I would do it myself but I have to help everyone else run LI without (Y/N.)"

"No, it's okay. I'll see if I can do it. Give it a test run to see if I'm capable of babysitting our CEO here." I smiled at Jen.

The brunette nods and leaves for the night. The younger CEO pushes the single couch next to (Y/N) bed and sits down to keep an eye.

"You don't have to stay here. You can go home and come back tomorrow morning or you can stay at my guest room which is like down the hall." (Y/N) says.

"Darling, I rather stay here and keep a close watch on you. If something happens, I'll be here to help."

"That's sweet, babygirl but I don't like the idea of you sleeping on that uncomfortable couch. You're going to have a stiff neck in the morning."

Lena rolls her eyes at the older CEO and thinks about grabbing a pillow to prevent the stiff neck situation. Sarah quietly walks in with comfortable looking clothes in her hands and looks between the two CEOs.

"Miss Luthor, sorry to disrupt. These clothes are for you. Jen and Rex contacted your assistant, Jess, to grab some clothes and your laptop since you might be staying overnight."

Lena was in awe that (Y/N)'s two closest friends thought about Lena's comfort and made the time to contact Jess for help. Lena thanks Sarah and the assistant left for the night as well.

"You can use my bathroom. Once you're done, why don't you sleep on the other side of my bed instead of sleeping on that uncomfortable yet good looking couch?" The older CEO tells Lena.

Lena was about to protest the proposal but (Y/N) speaks out her mind again, "Don't argue with a criple person, Miss Luthor. This is a king size bed, we can both fit."
