Under the Heiress' Facade novel Chapter 341

Hera was stunned for a moment, but she remained calm. She asked, "Who are you?"

The other end of the phone abruptly went silent. Looking at the screen, she found that the call had been hung up.

She stared at the screen and appeared surprisingly calm, but the atmosphere in the room became frigid.

…

On the other hand, Camille heard the sound of running water in the bathroom stop, followed by the sound of the door opening. She instantly ended the call.

"How dare you touch my phone!"

Sensing the cold pressure, she turned around to see Bernard in a bathrobe. His hair was wet, and he exuded an appalling chill.

Different from usual, his cheeks and ears were flushed abnormally, indicating that he had been drugged.

"Bernie—"

"Get out!" Bernard grabbed the phone back and distanced himself from Camille. He appeared fierce as if he would kill her if she took one step closer.

She swallowed involuntarily, glanced at the door, and pretended to be innocent. "Someone has locked the door from outside."

Bernard's expression darkened when he heard that. The atmosphere reached an impasse.

Chad had asked Aurora to organize tonight's dinner. Because Ember was present, he couldn't reject it.

Bernard thought it was only a meal, and he never expected someone to put drugs in his food.

It was obvious that they intended to get the two of them to have sex by locking Camille in his room. If the deed was done, he wouldn't be able to escape from marrying her.

As the top of the four influential families, the Killians were so shameless to use such a despicable method!

"Sorry, I didn't know they would do that."

Camille frowned and continued to act innocent. "Although I like you, I don't want to force you. They've gone too far."

After saying that, she swiftly added, "But please don't blame them. They meant well."

Bernard ignored her words and checked the communication records. The latest call was from "Sweetie". He frowned slightly, appearing gloomier.

Seeing that he was ignoring her, Camille stated, "I can detoxify the drug in your body. Do you need my help?"

As she spoke, she stepped closer to Bernard. She didn't like the idea of forcing him. Her mother had taught her since childhood that girls should be reserved.

But what had she gotten in return after being reserved for six years? Bernard went to a hotel with another woman instead!

Since she had such a wonderful chance right now, she no longer wanted to remain reserved!

Even if Bernard disliked her, she would be the Killians' future heiress if she became pregnant with his child. As long as she became his wife, she was confident to win over him one day.

Camille's scent caused Bernard's heat to surge wildly. He warned her fiercely, "Don't come near me!"

Holding his phone tightly, he turned around and returned to the bathroom, not forgetting to lock the door.

Camille became pale and froze in place as she heard the door being locked.

Bernard would rather take a cold shower than touch her. Did he hate her so much?

In the bathroom, Bernard turned on the shower and poured ice-cold water over himself. It relieved some of his heat, but it couldn't extinguish his desire.
