Chapter 96

"That's her choice, so why are you complaining?"

Gideon set down his tablet.

"And show some respect to Hera. Don't you dare curse in front of her!"

"It's none of your business!"

Gino turned his head away proudly.

"Ms. Hera, you're back."

Judy's voice suddenly came from outside.

The four people in the living room immediately looked toward the door.

In the blink of an eye, James immediately threw the photo frame he had been caressing into the trash bin. Lilith was stunned by his actions.

Before Gideon could intervene, Gino swiftly positioned himself in front of Hera. C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

With his arms crossed, head held high, he declared, "You're back so soon, huh? Are you afraid that I'll reclaim my room? It's obvious your favorite room is still my study!"

Gino would sever ties with Hera if she didn't opt for his study. He wouldn't even offer her pocket money.

Hera remained silent, her expression unreadable.

"Don't mind him. Hera, come and take a look. I designed a new room for you."

Gideon pushed Gino aside. He handed Hera the room design plan and looked at her expectantly.

Hera glanced at the design plan. It was detailed and considerate, with many thoughtful elements. It was evident that a lot of effort had been put into it.

"Not bad," she said.

Gideon was delighted to earn Hera's approval.

"If you like it, I'll have the interior design company start remodeling tomorrow."

Hera was slightly taken aback by his sudden affection, as she wasn't used to having such a caring brother. Seeing him lead the family in making these changes for her brought a soothing warmth to her heart.

Her mood, which had been restless all evening, improved slightly.

"Alright."

She nodded in confirmation.

Gino's eyes widened in disbelief. He couldn't believe her audacity for not choosing him. He felt he was done with this nonsense.

Meanwhile, in the CEO's office at Gaskell Corporation, Queenie was holding a glass of wine when she asked Amelia, "It's been three days. Has no one taken the order yet?"

Amelia shook her head.

"No. I have posted on every single platform available both domestically and internationally, but no one is interested."

"These fools. They're idiots for not grabbing the money even when they have the chance!"

Queenie cursed and slammed the wine glass heavily on the coffee table.

"Mom, I'm sorry, I underestimated the influence of Raven. I just found out that Raven is the only disciple of S," Amelia said apologetically.

"What?"

Both Queenie and Terence, who was sitting in the CEO's seat, exclaimed in surprise.

They all knew about the S incident where S was regarded as a national hero. Eight years ago, S was deployed by the nation during Miridian's invasion of the country's defense system.

He single-handedly obstructed the enemy's invasion within a day and also counter-killed the enemy. His actions paralyzed the Miridian's defense system for a week.

At that time, the incident became a global sensation, elevating S to the status of a legend in the hacker community.

However, two years ago, S retired from hacking due to health issues, leaving behind a void in the hacker world. The fact that Raven was S' only disciple was enough to instill fear in hackers worldwide.

And the Gaskells had offended such a terrifying existence in the heat of the moment.

"What took you so long to figure that out?"

Queenie glared at Amelia, full of resentment.
