Under the Heiress' Facade novel Chapter 432

Surprisingly, Bernard didn't need to wake Hera up the next day as she had woken up early herself.

Bernard felt slightly confused when Hera took the initiative to wrap her arms around his neck. She stood on her tiptoes and kissed his cheeks. "Why don't I send you to work today? I'll drop by the Everetts on my way home."

Bernard remained silent. He had planned to head to Astral Nova today, not Shuttle Ventures. They were, in fact, not heading the same way.

But since he had decided to keep his identity a secret from Hera, he had to keep the gig up.

"Sure," Bernard answered.

So, Douglas came to fetch them after breakfast as they drove from Jedburgh to Norburgh. They dropped Hera at the Everett residence before turning around to head to Astral Nova.

When Hera entered the Everett residence, she took two steps forward before turning around to ensure that Bernard had left.

Then, she turned around and left the Everett residence. Gino came out of the house with a yawn while carrying his backpack. He just so happened to see Hera get in a car by the entrance of their house. His drowsiness disappeared instantly.

"Hera—" He quickly chased after her. But Hera didn't hear him and quickly drove off.

"Gino, where are you going?" Lilith came out and asked.

Gino said loudly, "I just saw Hera come home."

Hearing this, Lilith turned to look at the gates with delight.

She was about to head out when Gideon and James quickly jogged out of the house. Even Mildred had gotten up in a hurry as she asked Judy to help her outside.

The entire family turned to look at the gates expectantly. However, there wasn't anyone standing there.

Gino explained, "But she already left."

"Gino, it's been a month since April Fools. Why are you playing such tricks on us? Don't you find it childish?" Gideon asked as he rolled his eyes at Gino.

"I'm not lying! She just returned moments ago! If you don't believe me, I'll call you right now to prove it!"

With that said, Gino took out his phone and dialed Hera's number. However, no one answered his calls despite calling her three times in a row.

Gino was at a loss for words.
