Dave firmly believed that a leopard never changes its spots, and Minerva acting overly familiar with Hera just because she saved her life raised a red flag in his mind.
To him, it seemed far too convenient, and he couldn't help but stay on high alert, suspicious of Minerva's true intentions.
In fact, he wasn't alone in his doubts. Zhane and Xavier were also sharing the same concern, both of them wary of Minerva's sudden shift in behavior.
They weren't easily convinced that Minerva had truly changed her heart and wanted to get closer to Hera.

They feared that Minerva was trying to win Hera's trust and affection, only to betray her later—something that would cut deeper than any of the usual schemes she had in the past.
