Under the Heiress' Facade novel Chapter 225

In the CEO's office, Bernard sat back in his office chair and closed his eyes to rest.

Harold reported to Bernard, "Mr. Bernard, they're gone." After messing with them like this, surely Frederick would not dare to trouble Bernard easily the next time, right?

"You should go home and rest too. You deserve it." Bernard pinched his nose bridge.

Previously, because of his illness, insomnia was a frequent occurrence. It was nothing to have insomnia for a whole week. However, since Hera started treating him, he found long-lost bliss in sleeping soundly until the morning. He was unused to staying up all night again.

"I'm just doing my job. Please rest early and take care." Harold left after saying that.

When the door closed, Douglas, who was scrolling on his phone, tucked it away. "Bernard, now that you've done this, I'm sure Mr. Frederick will complain about you to Chad.

"Let him be." Bernard couldn't care less. After all, Frederick had complained about Bernard plenty of times to Chad.

He glanced at his phone. When he saw that Hera hadn't replied to the message he sent this morning, his heart sank.

Since she got the century-old gurdyroot, she had been acting distant. He would send a few messages, only for her to reply in one message. He would also call multiple times, but she would only take one call. She would say just a few sentences before hanging up.

She was so busy that she didn't even return to Skyview Heights. He let Douglas go over regularly to feed and clean up after Tiramisu.

"Look into what Hera is up to." His fingers tapped on the desk restlessly.

"Yes," Douglas replied and immediately made a call.

In ten minutes, he got a reply and told Bernard, "Ms. Youngworth has been in the laboratory of Cavenridge International Academy the past few days. She might be producing medicine."

Bernard remembered that Hera mentioned that the gurdyroot was an ingredient to make the medicine that would save him.

He stood up abruptly and took his suit. He walked out and was about to ask Douglas to prepare the car to drive to Cavenridge when Johnson called him.

"Bernard, I got the person you asked me to find."
