Under the Heiress' Facade novel Chapter 613

"The grandmaster said that your performance for the black market is outdated. We've had this kind of performance long ago, so it's nothing special. Astral Nova needs something more interesting," Trevor repeated exactly what his superior said.

Something more interesting?

To Thiago, the performance to please the wealthy clients' strange fetishes was already rather perverted and dark. Yet, the grandmaster considered Thiago's segment to be outdated. Just how cruel was he?

Thiago suddenly admired him very much. Although he was part of the mafia in the South, he knew that he would have to find a backer in the northern side of the country if he wanted to break into the northern market.

Not only was Astral Nova the most influential group in the North, but they also had an influence across Agrecia. If Thiago could join Astral Nova, he would have the support needed. By then, he could snatch Hera away from Bernard.

Anyone part of Astral Nova would have unique skills that others didn't have. Thiago had no skills aside from having connections with the elite circle. Thus, he put together a segment that the elite circle would enjoy.

But he was still perplexed. "If it's nothing new, you would've known that from the start. Why did you still provide me with a venue? Doesn't providing me with a venue mean that my segment is interesting?"

"The final verdict is you failed, but we allowed you to organize the performance."

Trevor also didn't understand why the grandmaster had approved. He was only here to follow the instructions. Since he had completed his task, Trevor left.

Although Thiago still didn't understand, he did not dwell on the matter. Once the payment was settled, he left as well.

…

The next day, Hera went to Silverleaf Hospital. Randy personally led her to Harvey's ward. On the way there, Randy apologized for the incident in the operating room.

"Hera, I apologize for our oversight the other day. We allowed someone who wasn't part of the research group to enter the operating room, which caused the accident."

"Do you have the footage?" Hera inquired. The operation that day was rather important. Thus, the hospital would have recorded the operation to use it as teaching material in the future.
