Under the Heiress' Facade

Chapter 524

It wasn't that easy to land a hit on Tyler, who had been to the army before. He and Bernard were closely matched back then.

Bernard successfully parried Bernard's fists and smiled. 'Woah, woah, calm down, man.'

"How can I calm down after what you've done to her?" growled Bernard as he swung another punch.

From the angle when he entered the place, he witnessed Tyler push Hera onto the table and kiss her! Most importantly, she didn't push Tyler away!

Hera got up from the table and watched the duel take place from the dining hall to the living room. Their combat skills were exceptional. Every attack made was aimed at the other part's lethal spot.

The things in the living room were scattered. Even Tiramisu was shrinking itself at a corner.

They were adults and yet, they became all physical all of a sudden, acting like immature teens fighting each other.

Hera couldn't get in between them. When she thought about the sniper, she couldn't care less about the men anymore. "You guys proceed. I shall get going first."

She carried Tiramisu and turned around.

Bernard, who was in the middle of the fight, was enraged. Still, he cared about her.

He had an idea as he withdrew his arms.

Tyler noticed that something was off, but he couldn't withdraw the outstretched punch anymore! Bernard could've dodged that hit readily, but he didn't!

It landed on the corner of his lips.

The inertia pushed him onto a rack, causing the vases to fall and shatter on the ground.

Hera stopped in her tracks. She turned around only to see Bernard on the ground. Her heart wrenched. She quickly put Tiramisu down and ran to him. "Are you alright?"

Her concerned tone watered down Bernard's anger a little. Taking that hit from Tyler was worth it.

"I'm alright." He wiped the blood away. "Be careful. Don't step on the shattered pieces."

She noticed that the corner of his lips was swollen. Frowning, she turned and glared at Tyler. "What are you doing?"

Tyler finally managed to make a hit on Bernard's annoying face, but it didn't feel good. Instead, he felt wronged

That punch was actually a light one.

When Hera was all worried about Bernard, Tyler realized that Bernard had taken the hit on purpose.

"Ouch!" Tyler suddenly hugged his stomach, crouching. "I think he broke my bones. Bernard Killian, how could you be this mean? Hera, come check on me. Am I going to die?"

Hera became speechless.NôvelDrama.Org © content.

Bernard could tell that Tyler was imitating him, but he wasn't going to expose the man. He held Hera's hand for support and stood up.

"I'm fine. He's going to die. You should check on him first," he urged.

No one expected to hear that coming from him.

Hera glanced at him, puzzled. Wasn't he the one who didn't want her to keep in touch with Tyler?

Bernard lowered his gaze, putting on a vulnerable and helpless act. It was as if he wasn't the person who showed up with a strong murderous aura and started the fight.

Hearing that weak and pitiful tone, Hera felt helpless. He knew that she couldn't do anything to him.

Meanwhile, Tyler was surprised to see this side of Bernard.

To Tyler, Bernard had always been the cold-blooded, disciplined, aloof, and strong opponent free from weakness. Who would've known that he could be such a bitch?

Tyler shifted his gaze onto Hera as he grew more interested in her. He wondered, 'If I steal her away, would that hurt Bernard the most?" 1

As an afterthought, he cried, "Ouch! It hurts so much! Hera, save me..."
