Under the Heiress' Facade novel Chapter 498

Hera's mind was a mess. She never expected that the person she was trying to find while keeping her whereabouts hidden from her boyfriend, would turn out to be her boyfriend himself!

"Did you recognize me at the auction for the Eclipse Stone last year?" Hera asked.

She recalled Bernard saying he recognized her as the miracle doctor from the bracelet she was wearing. Thinking back, it made sense that he was the Grandmaster of Astral Nova. The only people she interacted with when she won the Eclipse Stone were Samantha and the Grandmaster of Astral Nova.

"Yes," Bernard admitted. Although he was usually quick-witted, he found himself at a loss, feeling uneasy by the look Hera was giving him.

"Bernard, you’re something else!" Hera pushed him away and got off the desk.

Not only did he find out about her secret identity, but he also made her spend 880 million dollars to get the Eclipse Stone for him! He scored big time!

Moreover, he had made her agree to add him on WhatsApp, tricking her into taking photos and making deals with him.

And she ended up falling for Bernard during this…

Hera recalled everything that had happened with the Grandmaster of Astral Nova and felt like a fool.

Bernard stumbled back from the push. He anticipated that Hera would be angry if she found out he had deceived her. He also considered telling her his true identity but had refrained due to Astral Nova's rules.

He had planned to first change Astral Nova's rules before telling Hera, but he didn’t expect his disguise to be exposed due to his carelessness.
