Hera’s light fragrance filled Bernard’s nose. He couldn’t help but laugh and wrap his arms around her.
“After the New Year’s, let’s make things official.” Hera buried her face in his neck.
Her birthday was on the first of January. After New Year’s, she would be of age and they could be together.
Bernard’s heart melted. “Suddenly, I don’t feel like going back.”
Hera didn’t want him to leave either, but he was from the Killian family, after all.
“Will the Everetts accept me if I marry into your family?” Bernard teased.
Hera let go of him. “Scram.”
Bernard looked like a pleading puppy. “I’m really leaving now,” he said reluctantly.
“Goodbye.” Hera held the pet carrier and entered the house.
The living room lights were still on when Hera entered and saw Gideon. Gideon asked in surprise, “Why are you back so suddenly?”
Hera randomly returned home in the middle of the night while holding a luggage bag… No, was that a pet carrier?
“Did you fight with Bernard?” he asked.
“No. He has to go back to the Killian residence to spend New Year’s. I’m just back for a while,” Hera replied.
“Oh…” Gideon replied. He looked disappointed, and Hera felt exasperated looking at him.
Bernard stood at the entrance and watched her enter the house before leaving in the car.
“Go back to Skyview Heights,” Bernard told Douglas.
Douglas said hesitantly, “But Chad…”
“Ignore him,” Bernard said bluntly.
Douglas could only keep his mouth shut and drive toward Skyview Heights.
Upon arriving at Skyview Heights, Bernard took off his jacket and went into the study. In his study were four monitors on the desk. He turned on the computer, and all four monitors lit up.
He opened up the data from Raven’s attack on Astral Nova’s firewall that was sent from Samson. His fingers typed swiftly on two separate keyboards as rows of code quickly flashed across the four screens.
On the other end, Camille had stayed up for three days and three nights. She followed the dosage and methodology from Dr. Shadow’s research paper. Finally, she created a few samples.
She called Florence over and gave her a pill. “Florence, this pill is specially formulated to strengthen the bones. You can try it.”
“Thank you, Ms. Camille!” Florence was delighted.
She knew that Camille was Dr. Shadow. Besides that, her recently published research paper on a ет
specially made medicine was rather popular. Netizens shared the
Evele
article’s findings like crazy, saying this could completely eradicate the root of the disease.
Florence had been plagued by bone spurs on her lower back for many years. Hence, she couldn’t wait to try this amazing medicine.
She took the pill and immediately poured a glass of water for herself so that she could take the medicine.
Camille stayed in the living room, observing Florence as she did chores. After an hour, she didn’t see anything out of the ordinary and asked, “Florence, how do you feel?”
Florence twisted her waist from side
to side. “My waist feels warm. When I mop the floor, my waist would usually be in so much pain. Now, I feel nothing. Ms. Camille, your medicine is amazing!”
Camille was very pleased with the effects. She had succeeded!
