Under the Heiress' Facade



Chapter 814

"Good afternoon, Ms. Youngworth. Here's your bank card." Derek politely handed the bank card to Hera. His attitude was drastically different from before.

Hera took the bank card by holding it between her fingertips and turned to return to her room.

"Ms. Youngworth, my boss wishes to meet you," Derek continued.

Hera looked back at him, who hurriedly continued, "You infiltrated our hotel system's firewall, so he wishes to have a chat with you."

Have a chat? More like he intended to hold her accountable for her actions.

But Hera always had been someone to own up to her actions. She shut the door. "Let's go."

Derek led her to the end of the corridor before stopping at Room 1666. After knocking three times, the door automatically opened.

He gestured for Hera to enter. After Hera pushed the door open and entered the room, Derek closed the door for her.

Hera silently looked around. This suite was bigger than hers, and its decor was far more upscale.

No one was in the living room, so Hera pushed open the bedroom door. Both rooms were empty, but she picked up on the sounds of the shower running in the bathroom. She was about to turn to leave when the sounds of the water in the bathroom stopped.

As the bathroom door opened, a half-naked Bernard stepped out, surrounded by steam. Water droplets dripped off his hair onto his firm chest and well-defined abs before finally disappearing into the towel around his waist.

Bernard looked as if he had stepped out of a magazine, leaving Hera slightly mesmerized. He was nothing like the men with bulky physiques from Flowera as every inch of his muscle was perfect. In addition, he also had a handsome face with chiseled features.

Bernard was flawless.

Was he the same man who had approached her at the arena in the morning?

"Enjoying the view?" Bernard asked lightly.

Hera wasn't embarrassed either. "You shouldn't have emerged from the shower if you didn't want anyone to check you out."

Bernard chuckled lightly. "So sharp-tongued."

He slowly took out a bathrobe from the wardrobe before putting it on. Afterward, he sat on the couch, picked up the glass of red wine on the table, and swirled it elegantly.noveldrama

"You infiltrated the Majestic Hotel's firewall, right?" Although it sounded like he was asking a question, his tone was very confident.

Hera sat in the armchair opposite him before picking up the red wine on the table and pouring it into an empty wine glass for herself. "No need to thank me for educating your subordinates on how things work."

With that, she raised her glass and took a sip first as if she owned that room.

Bernard was speechless. It was his first time seeing such a woman acting so bold before him. She was becoming more captivating to him.

He suddenly got up and approached Hera before grabbing her by the chin. "Aren't you kind? Seems like no one has ever taught you a lesson."

"No one taught me that overseas. Do you want to teach me a few things?"

Hera looked at Bernard's handsome face closeup. Not only was he attractive, but his skin was so flawless that she couldn't even see his pores.

A faint tobacco smell emitted from him. Hera wasn't sure if the wine was getting to her. He smelled rather nice to her and even rather familiar.

Bernard noticed the challenging glint in Hera's gaze and chuckled. "Woman, you've successfully captured my attention."

"So, what are you going to do?"

Their breaths mingled with each other, making the atmosphere seem rather intimate. Bernard's Adam's apple bobbed. Hera had such a seductive charm, making him feel like he was out of control.

He suddenly felt her grip his collar before tugging him downward. His lips met hers, feeling warm and soft against his.

He was startled. The first thing that came to his mind was that Hera was truly bold.
