Under the Heiress' Facade novel Chapter 180

As expected of the girl Bernard had his eye on. Hera was definitely a special one.

Meanwhile, Brandon looked confused.

Since both Shaun and Kane had personally arrived to set Hera free, shouldn't she be leaving the cell right away?

Why was she still sitting there? Did she fall in love with the cell?

"Ms. Youngworth, Mr. Thompson is here to bail you out. You may leave now," Brandon reminded in a humble tone once again.

"Do you even know the art of speaking, you dumbfuck?" Shaun delivered a kick at Brandon's ass. "What do you mean by 'bail'? She didn't do anything wrong in the first place!"

Brandon almost tripped and fell because of the kick.

After steadying himself, he quickly changed his tune. "Y-Yes! Of course! She didn't do anything wrong! I was the one who messed everything up! I'm really sorry!"

Only then did Hera raise her head coolly. "My things," she said.

Her phone and acupuncture kit were confiscated before she was thrown into the cell.

Upon hearing Hera's words, Brandon quickly ordered an officer to bring her belongings over. Then, he presented them to her respectfully.

At that moment, Brandon finally had a taste of what it really felt like to have shot himself in the foot.

After Hera stowed the acupuncture kit into her pocket, she accepted her phone leisurely. Then, she turned on the camera app and started recording Brandon.

"What are your mistakes?" she asked.

Shaun grew even more intrigued when he realized what Hera was doing. The way she handled this incident was similar to how Bernard would usually act.

Brandon's expression went stiff. He didn't say anything in response.

Why did Hera's interrogative tone and demeanor seem so familiar?

"Well? Spit it out!" Shaun delivered yet another kick at Brandon.

Brandon felt both humiliated and aggrieved to have received two kicks in a row. But he dared not protest, seeing Kane said nothing about the kicks.

He thought for a moment before replying, "I went against the principles and ethics of my career and sullied it with my misdeeds. I didn't investigate the case fairly, choosing to draw my conclusion just by listening to one side of the story. In doing so, I ended up wronging you, Ms. Youngworth. I'm sorry about that.
