Under the Heiress' Facade novel Chapter 365

"Giselle borrowed the money using Mrs. Jones' ID, but the one who ordered the attack was their boss, Logan Knight. He's the local thug in Glintshire, dealing in loan sharking and other shady activities," a bodyguard reported.

"Alright. Release them, but keep an eye on them," Hera said, nodding.

She figured that Giselle wouldn't have the power to command a thug like Logan unless she had already reunited with the Killian family.

"Understood," the bodyguard replied, then asked, "Ms. Youngworth, when are you planning to return? I'll get the car ready."

Hera knew this was Bernard's idea.

"Prepare the car. We'll leave once we've finished packing."

"Yes."

Just then, a faint noise came from inside the house.

Hera immediately followed the sound to Catherine's room. She found Catherine frantically searching through drawers and cupboards.

The mattress was flipped, and a small hidden compartment under the wooden bed frame was open but empty.

"What's wrong?" Hera asked.

"The things I kept in the hidden compartment are gone!" Catherine exclaimed.

"What things?"

"Some jewelry that Daphne gave me, old documents, and some photos," Catherine replied.

This hidden compartment was so discreet that even the loan sharks didn't find it. Catherine had never told Hera about it—only she knew about its existence. However, she had opened it once when Giselle pestered her about her parents.

Catherine's face fell at the thought of Giselle. She figured it had to be Giselle, as a thief wouldn't take documents and photos.

Hera had already guessed the culprit but was more concerned about the contents.

"What kind of documents?"

Catherine tried to recall.
