Under the Heiress' Facade novel Chapter 301

After leaving her classroom, Hera headed to Pineview Hospital instead of meeting Christopher.

She stopped at a nearby fruit vendor to pick up a basket before continuing to the fifth floor of the inpatient department.

Nathan, clad in a hospital gown, sat up in surprise upon seeing Hera.

"Ms. Youngworth? What brings you here?"

"Just checking in. How's that wound healing?" Hera replied, locking the door behind her and placing the fruit basket on the table.

Nathan lifted his shirt to reveal the bandaged side. "Nothing serious, just a scratch. Any updates on the investigation?"

Hera pulled up a chair and settled in.

"There's a mole in the department," she said in a neutral tone.

Nathan's fists clenched. "Is it really him?"

Hera shook her head. "I'm not sure."

The truth was, Nathan's injury wasn't as severe as Stephen had made it out to be during their phone call.

Hera's suspicions about a mole began to fester ever since the items from the oak forest vanished.

However, the identity of the mole remained a mystery. Later on, Nathan sustained a minor injury while on a mission during the Queenie bribery scandal at Shuttle Ventures.

It was the perfect opportunity, so Hera and Nathan hatched a plan.

Nathan would exaggerate the severity of his injury, claiming it rendered him incapable of handling his current case. This would prompt him to temporarily hand it off, revealing Amelia's location in the process.

Just as expected, the new case officer swiftly apprehended Amelia and closed the case. The swiftness only solidified Hera's suspicions.

The threat wasn't over with the disgraced Brandon.
