Under the Heiress' Facade novel Chapter 298

Hera stood on her tiptoes and slowly leaned toward Bernard.

As their breaths mingled, Bernard watched her beautiful face grow closer. Just when he thought she was going to kiss him, she removed his glasses.

"It's just as I thought. These are just plain glasses," Hera said as she examined the glasses and put them on herself.

"You've learned to trick me," he said, rubbing her hair.

Hera smiled and said, "Well, I learned that from you!"

Bernard chuckled. Then, he held her head and kissed her forehead.

Hera immediately pushed him away and said, "I'm still a minor!"

Her words and tone sounded familiar to him. It was precisely what he had said to her when he was worried about her getting close to Christopher.

He suddenly felt like he had shot himself in the foot.

Hera was pleased to see him finally at a loss. She sidestepped him, still wearing his glasses, and headed downstairs.

She reminded him, "You look more handsome without them."

Bernard smiled helplessly before going downstairs as well.

Meanwhile, Camille was in her lab in a suburban area of Norburgh, following the instructions in Lucifuge's Acupuncture Manual for the hundredth time on her assistant.

During a medical exchange conference, Oscar had asked her about the Lucifuge's Manual. But she had excused herself then by saying she had something urgent and that they could discuss it another time.

Upon returning from the conference, she hurriedly searched through various medical history books before she finally found the manual.

After inserting needles into several acupoints, she waited for a while before removing them.

Then, she asked, "How do you feel?"

Her assistant moved her neck and nodded.
