Chapter 282 Got it. I'll visit Nate when he's better," said Heta Sensing her lack of interest in the case, Stephen tried to comfort het.

"Don't worry. Nate's always been in tip-top condition. He'll recover very quickly," he said.

Hera hummed in response.

of Stephen hadn't met Hera in person before this and felt how cold and distant she was as a person, he'd assumed that she was way too indifferent and calm after receiving such However, since she had no questions about the case, Stephen said nothing more after that.

Before hanging up, he simply told her, "That's all Bye." Hera stared at her phone screen, which showed her the news page about Amelia. A mischievous glint formed in her eyes.

"Ms. Youngworth, we're here," said the chauffeur as he parked the car in front of the gates of the Everett residence.

After thanking the chauffeur, Hera exited the car and pressed the doorbell. As she waited for the gates to open, she received several Whatmessages from Bernard.

"Are you home? "What should I do? We've only just parted, and yet I'm starting to miss you again. When will you cto Skyview Heights again? I'm so pitiable.

The comers of Hera's mouth lifted into a simile.

She responded to his messages with two simple words: "We'll see." "Did you win a jackpot? Why are you so happy?" Gino asked jokingly as he stood in the doorway after opening the door.

Hera appeared to be in a pretty good mood, which didn't happen every day.

Hera pocketed her phone. Glancing up, she noticed that Gino hadn't even put on his jacket before leaving the house to welcher.

"You must f I missa lot," she said.

The moment she finished saying that, she realized that it must've been Bernard's influence that prompted her to say something like that.

The door at the Everett residence was automatic. Yet, Gino rushed over to open the door when he knew that she had returned.

At her words, he suddenly thought that he was too childish for running out to open the door for her.

"You think? Well, then, I'll admit that I miss you a little bit," said Gino with his head held high Hera was speechless.

Later, when they entered the house, she saw Lilith and Mildred having dinner in the dining room. Gideon and James weren't there The Everetts would usually have dinner at around seven. They don't usually have supper.

It was already ten o'clock, and yet Lilith and Mildred were only having their dinner at this time. Hera found it strange.

"You're back, Hera Are you hungry?" Lilith asked.

"Do you want to eat smore?" Setting her fork and spoon down, Lilith stood up to go to the kitchen and grab Hera a set of cutlery.

Hera didn't feel like eating, so she asked, "Why are you having dinner this late today?" "We wanted to wait for your dad and Gideon, but they still haven't returned home," explained Lilith. "That's why we're having dinner now." Hera sensed something behind Lilith's words, "Did something happen at Gideon's company?"

Not wanting to let Herwony, Lilith tried to devise an excuse. But before she could speak, Mildred's annoyed voice filled the air. "It's all because of the Gaskells!" she seethed.

"That bitch called Queenie. Why didn't she get a death sentence?"

She continued, "After she was released, she started giving us trouble. Not only did she have someone stop a new, important client from signing a contract with Gideon, but she also robbed as of the venge he reserved for the annual meeting. She even set her meeting date so it falls on the sday as ours!

"So what if the Gaskell are wealthier than us? They think they're the suprlords bere in Norburghm They're a bunch of conceited tools who look down on our family. I'm so pissed! Hera, hurry up and call Bernard. Ask him to teach them a lesson!" X
