Under the Heiress' Facade

Chapter 238

Gino struggled hard and broke free from Lilith. When he landed on his feet and was about to run back to the backyard, James, who was following him, scooped him up again and carried him on his shoulders.

"This hot spring pool is too deep for you. Let's go out. There are many public pools outside."

Gino complained, "I don't wanna!"Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

However, his struggles proved to be in vain. James carried him directly out of the backyard.

Gideon believed that his parents had taken Gino away on purpose.

Now, there were only three of them left. He used Bernard's prior statement to tell Hera, "Mr. Killian doesn't like to be in the same pool as outsiders. Let's go out and leave him alone."

With that, he hugged her shoulders and led her out.

Hera had intended to do so before he even mentioned it. Now that he did, she found it a bit strange.

How much time had he and Bernard spent together? He appeared to have figured out Bernard's preferences!

She couldn't help but imagine Bernard flirting with Gideon in the same way he did to her previously.

Bernard squinted slightly. Then, he stepped forward and grabbed Hera's wrist, preventing Gideon from taking her away. "She's not an outsider," he said.

Gideon smiled and took Hera's other hand, pulling her to him. "No, she is!"

Bernard pulled Hera back to his side. "She's not!"

"She is!"

"She's not!"

Hera was expressionless as she was pulled back and forth between them. Then, a guess suddenly popped into her mind.

Could it be that they wanted to take a hot spring bath together but were too embarrassed to say it? Were they using her as an excuse? She imagined the scene of them sharing a pool. The next moment, she used some force to break free from their grip.

"I'll leave. You two stay here."

Bernard and Gideon immediately stopped arguing. Right then, Gideon's phone rang. It was a call from Lilith.

Hera didn't know what Lilith said. After picking it up and listening for a while, Gideon frowned and responded, "Okay, I'll go over now."

He then hung up the phone, turned to Hera, and reminded her, "Mom asked me to go over. You have to be careful when you stay with him." After saying that, he glared at Bernard as if warning him not to behave inappropriately toward Hera.

that. Gideon appeared to be unaware of Bernard's sexual orientation. She patted his arm, reminding him instead, "Gideon you're the one who needs to be careful." Content belongs NovelDrama.Org

Bernard and Gideon were puzzled.

Gideon even thought, "What does Hera mean? Will Bernard kill me because I keep hindering him from pursuing her?"

Seeing his confused look, Hera felt compelled to remind him more straightforwardly. She was about to leave with Gideon but was stopped by Bernard.

"Sweetie, don't you want to have a hot spring bath with me?"

Hera was speechless. He was the one who wanted to come here. When did she agree to share the pool with him?

But she had something to tell Bernard, so she stayed.

He took off his bathrobe and stepped into the hot spring pool. She also did the same and entered the pool from the opposite side.

The weather was cloudy, and it looked like it might snow. As the temperature difference was too great, the hot spring pool was filled with mist, blurring their vision.

Hera looked at Bernard, who was surrounded by mist, and warned him, "Don't get so close to my brother!"
