Under the Heiress' Facade novel Chapter 173

"What happened?" Gino asked when he heard the sounds coming from Hera's end of the line.

"I'll talk to you about the things you brought up just now. I need to go now."

Hera ended the call before swiftly typing a sentence into the WhatsApp private chat. "Will you believe me if I tell you that was the wrong photo?"

She hesitated for a moment when she was about to send the message. Then, she deleted the whole thing.

Hera needed to stay calm. Maybe the grandmaster hadn't seen the photo yet.

Thinking that luck might be on her side, she deleted the sentence before the photo.

Hera wanted to send Piglet's photo and information to the grandmaster of Astral Nova earlier. Since Piglet preferred men, this mission was suitable for him.

But in the end, she screwed up.

Grandmaster of Astral Nova: "You have a nice body. Are you trying to seduce me?"

Grandmaster of Astral Nova: "But I haven't had my fill of looking at it. Why don't you send me the same photo again?"

Hera was stunned, to say the least.

She opened the photo album, only to see Bernard's photo in it. The date it was saved happened to be the same day Bernard had sent the photo to her. She must have accidentally saved it while fighting Samantha for her phone.

Shit! This was all a huge misunderstanding!

Hera quickly tapped on the photo to delete it. But when the system asked her if she really wanted the photo gone, she ended up tapping "no" for some reason.

She had to admit that Bernard was insanely hot and sexy.

That was when Hera remembered what Bernard had done to her back then. She swiped back to the WhatsApp private chat and decided to go with the flow.

Shadow: "You like it? I'll give you the photo in exchange for the century-old gurdyroot in your possession."
