Under the Heiress' Facade

Chapter 219

"Gentlemen, if you will." Douglas opened the door and gestured for the two men to go out.

Although Frederick felt annoyed, he could feel the threatening pressure emanating from Bernard. It was a sign that he was about to get angry. After all, it was true that they were the ones in the wrong.

He didn't want to give Bernard a chance to reprimand them in the future, so he could only smile. "You're right, Uncle Bernard. Roman, let's go. We'd better wait for Bernard in the meeting room."

Roman looked displeased, but he still understood what Frederick meant. They would comply by going outside, but they wouldn't do such a thing as knock and reenter the room.

It was better for everyone to go to the meeting room and discuss any matters of business there. At the same time, Bernard had better make sure that they didn't catch him with any dirty business.

"Okay," Roman drawled and went out with Frederick.

The moment the door closed, Bernard immediately returned to the coding page. However, the codes looked abnormal. The other person's computer was turned off.

With just a bit more time, he could have gotten the other person's information, but they escaped. How interesting! If they met again, the other person would not get away so easily.

He reopened WhatsApp and sent a message to Samson. Then, he logged out and turned off the computer before going out of the room.

At Skyview Heights, Hera was eating takeout. She kept on thinking of the inte address that she failed to hack that afternoon and searched for it on her phone. It was Shuttle Ventures' officialwork.

Grandmaster of Astral Nova was at Shuttle Ventures?

If she recalled correctly, it was a small subsidiary under Killian Corporation. Now, it was under Bernard's supervision. Grandmaster of Astral Nova invited her to meet at the Imperial Hotel at 2:00 pm, which was not far from Shuttle Ventures.

Suddenly, her phone rang, disrupting her train of thought. It was from Leon.

"Raven, I'm in Norburgh with Damian. He's here to record a show. Are you available to have lunch? We want to thank you for treating Damian, allowing him to recover fully."

Leon followed Hera's instructions

and gave Damian the medicine for a week. Not only did his

gastroenteritis heal, but his stomach problems were also treated. Leon was very impressed, so he wanted Hera's help to treat his own ailments.

"I'm occupied this afternoon, so I'll have to pass on lunch. If you want to repay me, I actually need a driver right now. You can play that part," Hera said.

"Sure, send me the address," Leon agreed enthusiastically.

Hera sent him an address. After tidying up the takeout boxes, she took her equipment and went out.

...

At 1:30 pm, Leon arrived at the

address that Hera sent him. He saw a person around five feet six inches, wearing a black trench coat and a face mask. It was hard to telD whether it was a man or a woman.

He was about to call Hera when that person opened the car door and sat in the backseat.

Leon looked back and asked tentatively, "Boss?"

Hera pulled down her mask. "Head to the Imperial Hotel."

"Why are you dressed like this? Are you planning a robbery?" Leon teased.

Hera thought about it for a while. "Something like that."

Grandmaster of Astral Nova agreed to meet her so readily. It was possible that they had some tricks up their sleeve. If there really was some trickery, she would be ready to react accordingly. Hence, she needed a driver as an accomplice.

Leon was shocked. "No way, boss! I was just joking. Are you for real?"

The shock made his hand jerk, and the steering wheel swerved to the side slightly. The car beside them immediately honked, and Leon quickly straightened the steering wheel.

"Drive carefully. Don't talk," Hera said.

How could Leon stay quiet? "You dragged me into this. As your accomplice, shouldn't I understand more about the plan?"Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
