Under the Heiress' Facade

Chapter 479

How could she betray her granddaughter when she was so caring? Catherine couldn't bring herself to do that.

Three days later, it was Children's Day.

Hera received a box of chocolate from Bernard early in the morning.

Puzzled, she emphasized, "I'm a grown-up."

He planted a kiss on her forehead. "This is compensation for the past 11 years of celebration."

She unwrapped the packaging of a chocolate piece and tossed it into her mouth. "If so, I should be getting 11 gifts. This is only one.

"Once per year. I'll make up for it in the future," he said gently.

"Okay." She smiled. It was quite sweet. She unwrapped and had another chocolate again.

After they had breakfast together, Bernard was preparing to go out. 'I'm going to attend an event tonight. It might end late, so I won't be coming home tonight. I'll stay at Skyview Heights for the night. If you're bored, you can call Samantha over to keep you company."

Her eyes lit up at that. What a coincidence! She wouldn't be returning home tonight because she was going to attend XS Corporation's third-anniversary party.

"Okay. Don't drink too much," she hurriedly responded.

Bernard was slightly surprised that Hera wasn't going to accompany him to work today. She would do that every day in the past. Work could be cumbersome sometimes, but at least her presence gave him comfort. Now that she wasn't going to accompany him for the day, he couldn't get used to it.

Still, it was XS Corporation's third-anniversary party today. His eyes darkened at the thought of Raven's name on the guest list.

"Alright. I won't. Bye."

"Hurry up or you're going to be late. I'm going to sleep in." Hera waved her hand lazily while yawning as though she was going to return to the room.

Ignoring the urgency in her tone, he lifted her chin and kissed her lips before leaving the house.

Hera returned to the bedroom. After the sound of the car engine died down, she quickly got changed and called Leon. 'You can pick me up now."

After picking her up, Leon drove to a hair studio for styling. Damian was there as well, in a different room. As the ambassador of XS Corporation's Shirka OS, he had to attend the anniversary party.

The stylist curled Hera's hair and gave her sexy makeup with striking red lipstick. Next, she changed into a strapless slit gown. The black color complemented her fair skin very well.

Black was the color of a raven, mysterious, silent yet smart. In addition to her sexy makeup, she looked stunning.

Leon knocked on the door before entering the room. His eyes widened at her makeover, which was completely different from her usual minimalist look. "You do look like a villain now."

Even Damian, who had seen countless beautiful and handsome men in the entertainment, couldn't help but glance in her direction. He quickly blocked Leon's view with his body. "Don't lose yourself over this."

Hera was rendered speechless.

Leon slid out from behind Damian to pass her a black golden invitation letter. 'Here's Raven's invitation letter. Later, I'll be going in with Damian from the backstage.Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.

"Better be careful when you enter through the front entrance. I heard that the top hackers of the Global Hacker List will be there. When Mr. Smith first sent out the invitation, only a few accepted the invitation. But when

news of you attending the event got out, everyone wanted to attend."

Hera blinked her eyes

It seemed like everyone was aiming for the bounty of 100 thousand dollars.
