Under the Heiress' Facade novel Chapter 480

Rhett and Frederick were in the CEO's office situated in the headquarters of Killian Corporation.

After listening to Frederick's report, Rhett asked, "Did you manage to contact Raven?"

"Not yet." Frederick dipped his head low.

Frowning in disapproval, Rhett chided sternly, "What have you been up to the past few days?"

Frederick had been busy keeping his controversy under control, but he didn't dare to mention a word about the private pictures.

Thus, he reported what happened that day, "I contacted Raven's assistant, Leon Kirkland. The discussion went on smoothly, but it was disrupted by Hera. She was there that day. She said that our offer was too low and wanted to compare it with XS Corportion's offer. She's trying to bait us into increasing the offer."

"Why was she there?" Rhett asked.

"Leon said that she's his assistant, but I doubt it. I think she's helping Uncle Bernard. She's approaching Leon to fish for Raven's information," Frederick guessed.

After all, whoever could clinch a contract with Raven would be the winner.

Chad only looked at the results, not the process. It had been more than two years since Bernard was dispatched to a subsidiary in Norburgh. Frederick believed that Bernard was trying to claim credit so that he could return to the headquarters.

"When are you going to take action then? Are you going to sit still until the day they signed Raven?" Rhett urged.

Bernard's presence was already pressuring the whole family. Now with Hera in the game, they felt more threatened.

They couldn't afford to spare Bernard and Hera, but especially Hera. If she brought up the incident that happened that year, Rhett's family would be done for.

Frederick responded, "I'm heading to Norburgh soon. According to our reliable sources, Raven will be attending XS Corporation's third-anniversary party tonight. I'll meet up with Raven for a face-to-face discussion."
