Under the Heiress' Facade novel Chapter 220

"Wait for me by the entrance," Hera said.

After 20 minutes, Leon stopped the car at the entrance of the Imperial Hotel. Hera wore a mask and got out of the car.

It was after lunch hour, so there were only a few people in the hotel. She went into the elevator and pressed the button to the fourth floor.

There was a pub and entertainment center on the fourth floor. It was usually very lively at night, but right now, there weren't a lot of customers.

Hera walked out of the elevator and saw two men far ahead who were walking out from the bar. She quickly hid behind a pillar. As the footsteps came closer, she heard them talking.

"No wonder Granduncle is still single at 24 years old. It's not that he doesn't care about inheriting the shares from Great-grandpa but that he actually likes men."

"Roman, we can talk about this after going home. Don't speak of these things here."

They stopped at the elevator, waiting for the doors to open.

"Why can't we talk about it?" Roman complained, looking very displeased.

He continued, "He acts indecently. He can't even control himself and looks at those things in the company. Who knows how wildly he acts in private? I feel disgusted just thinking about it.

"How dare he point fingers at us and call us rude for disturbing him when he's watching porn? He must have been a pervert since young!"

As Frederick listened to him, his gaze darkened. "That's enough. It's the 21st century. Is that really so strange?"

Roman looked at Frederick in surprise. He was a little taken aback that Frederick would speak up for Bernard.

However, Roman also realized something. He nodded and replied, "That's true. Granduncle likes men, and it's impossible for him to get married legally in this country. If he doesn't get married, then he can never inherit the shares that Great-grandpa left behind for him!

"It's just as well. We'll have one less competitor."

Frederick's gaze remained dark, and he stayed silent as if he was contemplating something.

Seeing that he was quiet, Roman continued, "No wonder there was no progress when Chad tried to arrange for him to marry the daughter of the Chime family. After we return, I must tell Chad about Granduncle's sexuality.
