Chapter 220

“Wait for me by the entrance,” Hera said.
After 20 minutes, Leon stopped the car at the entrance of the Imperial Hotel. Hera wore a mask and got out of the car.
It was after lunch hour, so there were only a few people in the hotel. She went into the elevator and pressed the button to the fourth floor.
There was a pub and entertainment center on the fourth floor. It was usually very lively at night, but right now, there weren’t a lot of customers.
Hera walked out of the elevator and saw two men far ahead who were walking out from the bar. She quickly hid behind a pillar. As the footsteps came closer, she heard them
talking.
e about inheriting the shares from Great–grandpa but that he actually likes men.”
“No wonder Granduncle is still single at 24 years old. It’s not that he doesn’t care a
“Roman, we can talk about this after going home. Don’t speak of these things here!
They stopped at the elevator, waiting for the doors to open.
“Why can’t we talk about it? Roman complained, looking very displeased.
He continued, “He acts indecently. He can’t even control himself and looks at those things in the company. Who knows how wildly he acts in private? I feel disgusted just thinking
about it
“How darehe point fingers at us and call us rude for disturbing him when he’s watching pom? He must have been a pervert since young!‘
As Frederick listened to him, his gaze darkened. “That’s enough. It’s the 21st century. Is that really so strange?”
Roman looked at Frederick in surprise. He was a little taken aback that Frederick would speak up for Bernard.
However, Roman also realized something. He nodded and replied, “That’s true. Grandance likes men, and it’s impossible for him to get married legally in this country. If he doesn’t get married, then he can never inherit the shares that Great–grandpa left behind for him!
“It’s just as well. We’ll have one less competitor.”
Frederick’s gaze remained dark, and he stayed silent as if he was contemplating something
Seeing that he was quiet, Roman continued, “No wonder there was no progress when chad tried to arrange for him to marry the daughter of the Chime family. After we return, i must tell Chad about Granduncle’s sexuality.
“Instead of arranging a business marriage for him, they might as well introduce you to Camille…“
Then, the elevator doors opened, and they entered. The doors closed as Hera came out from behind the pillar. She recognized the two men.
When she was still with the Killian family, she was around Frederick’s age, so she took him as a brother.
Ever since she could remember, Frederick had always led to bully her. When Bernard protected her, Frederick would simply point tingers at Bernard.
At the time, Bernard was hot–headed and would fight Frederick. Frederick couldn’t win, so he would complain to Chad. Then, Chad would always punish Bernard by making him kneel for hours and write essays.
As for the other person called Roman, Hera had never met him. After Hera left the Killians, Aurora couldn’t conceive naturally, so Roman was adopted. She heard that Aurora and Chad favored Roman
In that case, the man that Roman kept calling “Granduncle” was. Bernard.
Bernard liked men
When she recalled their interactions, Bernard always flirted with her frivolously. Was it because he was gay, so he only treated her like a niece? Was that why he never did anything immoral
Suddenly, Hera felt an inexplicable sense of disappointment.
A server welked up to Hera and asked, “May I help you, miss
Hera came back to her senses. “How do I get to Room 808?
When the server heard the room number, he immediately said politely, “Please come with me.”
This room was not open to the general public, so if anyone was looking for this room, they had to be an important guest.
Hera followed the server to the room. When she went in, there was a muscular man in a black suit
Hera recognized him. He was the bodyguard who invited her to meet Grandmaster of Astral Nova last time.
“Your grandmaster is not here?” Hera looked around the room, but there was only the bodyguard
