Under the Heiress' Facade novel Chapter 195

"Boss!" the young man called out excitedly.

Hera gazed at him in surprise. "Piglet?"

"That's me!" Piglet nodded happily. "Wow! You look prettier than your ID photo!"

"Piglet" was the young man's codename. His actual name was Leon Kirkland.

Hera thought it was a huge coincidence for her to bump into Leon in this place.

Bernard, who was scrolling through his phone on the couch, could sense that something was off in the conversation. He turned around to look at Leon.

Leon stood over five feet and seven inches tall. He was a looker, that was for sure. At first glance, Bernard could tell that Leon had just turned 20 years old. His dyed silver-gray hair was quite eye-catching.

Piglet?

Bernard rose to his feet, a slight frown gracing his features.

At first, Douglas wanted to chase Leon out of the premises. But since Hera and Leon knew each other, he decided not to do anything.

"What's the matter?" Hera asked.

She remembered vaguely overhearing that Leon was searching for medicine.

"My friend ingested spoiled food, causing his gastroenteritis to act up. But he didn't bring medicine along, so I came here to ask if you guys have any medicine that can treat gut health," Leon explained with a frown.

He knew Hera was skilled in treating illnesses, so he added, "Can you take a look at him? Our location's quite close to yours. It's barely 300 feet away."

"Can't you just call the emergency hotline and send your friend to the hospital?" Bernard asked coldly as he moved to stand in front of Hera.

He made sure to angle himself so that he was blocking her from Leon's line of sight. It was as though he was announcing to Leon that Hera was his.

Leon made eye contact with Bernard at that moment. Suddenly, the former felt a strong and intimidating bearing shrouding him.

What a domineering man.

Based on how possessive Bernard was over Hera, Leon could tell that they shared an unusual relationship.

"He's a celebrity, and he's still in the midst of filming, so it's inconvenient for him to go to the hospital," Leon explained.

"Isn't there a doctor in the filming crew?"
