Under the Heiress' Facade novel Chapter 72

Chapter 72 

Hera’s words undeniably provoked Queenie

Someone, get this wretch out of here,Queenie called for a maid while James quickly approached

Mrs Gaskell, please calm down. I’ll handle this.” 

James didn’t want Hera to be kicked out of the Gaskell residence in front of so 

so many elites as it would tamish the Everett family’s reputation

You’re too audacious, Heral Who asked you to come? James led Hera forcefully to the backyard

He knew Hera was a nuisance and never intended to bring her along. But she managed to come anyway

Without waiting for Hera’s reply, he pointed to a path. There’s a back door here. Get out of here immediately!” 

With that, he turned on his beel and headed back to the banquet hall 

Hera chuckled lightly, but her gaze remained cold. She hadn’t done anything yet, and he was already furious

In fact, this wasn’t the first time she had met Queenie. Back when she was with the Killians, she attended a family banquet where she had a ninin with Queenie

Queenie accidentally bumped into Daphne, causing a herbal remedy Hera had worked late into the night to prepare for Albert to fall to the floor. Not only did Queenie not apologize, but she also dirtied Daphne’s dress, resulting in her being scolded by Albert

At that moment, pig grunts sounded from a nearby flowerbed 

Hera snapped out of her thoughts and saw Tiramisu poking its head out of the greenery. It grunted twice at her before disappearing back into the bushes 

Following the floral path, Hera trailed after Tiramisu for a while

The Gaskell family was indeed wealthier than the Everett family. Their backyard was an expansive garden, stretching to a small grove at the end. It was filled with valuable trees. In the secluded grove, she caught sight of a small gray cabin 

Tiramisu nosed around the bed of dry leaves and unearthed something. Hera picked it up. It was a bunny hairpin with only one ear

The hairpin was the one Isabella used to wear on her head. It seemed Isabella’s disappearance was indeed tied to the Gaskell family

Good job.She patted the Tiramisu’s head, stood up, and headed toward the small cabin nestled in the woods 

Gisellechanged into a fresh outfit and descended the stairs, scanning the room but finding no sign of Hera. It appeared queenie had already kicked her out… 

Asly smile played on Giselle’s lips. She then gracefully approached queenie to apologize for her blunder tonight

Giselle knew Queenie was a perfectionist who couldn’t tolerate any flaws. Quernde must be turning that she was publicly exposed for wearing a knockott tonight, so she needed to apologize promptly

However, she was stopped by the butler before she could reach Queenie

Ms. Everett, I’m sorry, but Mrs. Gaskell doesn’t wish to see you right now.”
