Under the Heiress' Facade novel Chapter 482

Over at the CEO's office at XS Corporation, Bernard stood straight and tall before the floor-to-ceiling windows, his long fingers wrapped around a glass of wine as he swirled the ruby-colored liquid around.

He imperiously surveyed the crowd below the building as if they were no better than pests.

"Bernard, Samson just called and said he's handled the matter with the International Police," Aaron said, knocking on the door as he entered.

Bernard hummed in response and fished out his phone. He sent a text and elegantly took a sip of wine, a smile curling his lips.

Aaron joined him by the floor-to-ceiling windows and stared at the crowd below. He sighed. "I wonder what Chad will make of this spectacle you've put on."

"Don't bring him up on a day like this. You'll just spoil my celebratory mood," Bernard drawled.

Aaron pursed his lips. There was a celebratory mood indeed. Today marked the third anniversary since Bernard had gone against his family. He changed the topic and asked, "So who's this Raven guy?"

"Curious, huh?" Bernard cut him a sidelong glance.

Aaron nodded. He hadn't been interested before but grew curious about Raven's identity after seeing the commotion and hearing about Elpswich's ten-million-dollar reward for anyone who found the famous hacker.

Bernard said curtly, "Go look for her yourself."

Aaron shot Bernard a withering look. He jested, "Do you not know who Raven is, too?"

"I'm waiting for confirmation," Bernard answered. He looked at his phone and found no reply to the message he had sent earlier.
