Hera was woken up by her phone’s loud ringtone the following day I was Nathan who was in charge of tabela’s case. He requested Hera to drop by the police station at 2:00 pm.
Nathan didn’t bring up any detalls regarding the case. All he said was that he’d explain everything to Hera once he got back to the police station.
Hera had a bad feeling about the meeting
After washing up in the bathroom, she had just descended the stairs when she heard the doorbelling.
The moment Hera opened the door, she saw a man clad in a uniform belonging to the Imperial Hotel. He carried awooden engraved lunch box with him.
“Hello. This is the meal that Mr. Killian has ordered.”
“Thank you.”
Hera accepted the lunch box. When she returned to the living room, she glanced in the direction of Bemand’s mom.
Did he wake up early in the morning?
Heca recalled the events that had occurred last night and the bouquet of flowers. She shook her head to get rid of all unnecessary thoughts. It was best if she pretended that nothing happened last night.
Then, Hera opened the lid of the lunch box, revealing massortment of food. Most of the food items happened to be her absolute fotite, with the remaining food items being pastries and consommé.
She took a seat at the table and ale some of the food. After that, she arranged the rest of the food on a trayso hat she could bring them over to Bernard
Meanwhile, Bernand lewned against the bed frame in his room with a pair of Bluetooth buds stuck in his ears. He raised his right knee in order to balance his laptop on top of it.
He maintained a poker face as his fingers flew over the keyboard swiftly. Strings of white codes quickly streaked across the dark screen with every key he typed
Theo’s voice continued filling Bernard’s eardrums via the earbuds. “There’s a trator in the hospital Someone has leaked the news of your incident. That’s why they have the guts to act so outrageously.”
“Hmph! To think they’re already this bold when I’m still alive! If I were dead, their heads would be extremely inflated from their ego!”
Bernard chuckled coldly in a deep toe. His gaze was extremely icy at that tim
Theo could sense Bernard’s fury from the other end of the line. He asked, “Are we still keeping them around?”
||__ “What for?“” Bernard snapped icily,
At that moment, he heard someone knocking on his door.
Bernard’s hands paused in their typing momentarily. Then, be ryped en faster on the keyboard. goseconds later, the screen was switched back to the desktop
“Strike them at their most vulnerable moments. Get rid of everyone once and for all” Bemand–commanded in one
After that, he hung up on Theo and removed his carinals before closing his laptop. Then, be placed everything on the nightstand
_____“Come in,” he called out.
When the door swung open from the outside, Bernard quickly lay back down on the bed. He made sure to plaster on a sickly expression as well.
Hera carried a small table into Bernard’s room a second later. She noticed Bernard lying on the bed. It was apparent that he had gotten out of bed earlier, seeing as he had changed into a pair of black silken pajamas. Not to mention, he didn’t slip under the covers as well.
After setting up the table on the bed, Hera brought breakfast into the room.
“Has Douglas used up his annual leave?” she asked.
“Why do you ask?” Bernard replied with a question of his own.
“I saw him coming over last night,” Hera explained
In fact, Douglas had left pretty late last night
The memory of last night’s incident made Bernard cough awkwardly. “He had to drop by at the last minute to deliver something”
“Oh. Tell him to come over later. I’m going back to the Everett residence orice you’re done with breakfast Something came up, and have to deal with it,” Hera said.
She had promised Litch last week that she’d accompany her to visit Mildred at the hospital on Sunday, which was today
Since Hera was planning to return to the Everett rodence, there was no telling whether or not she’d go home at night.
Bernard, ever shameless, stated, “Douglas is still on his annual leave. He rehimed to his hometown early in the morning” “What about Johnson Hera asked.
