Chapter 470
“I never expected Hera to have Tiramisu as her pet since she used to despise pigs…”
Bernard played a recording on his phone, which was everything Everly had said at the pet hospital last night. Everly turned red instantly. She never expected that Bernard would record their conversation.
Hera stared at Bernard in shock. She didn’t know whether he was being overly defensive or if he had a strong intuition.
Bernard glanced at her, seeming to explain that he was innocent and Everly was framing him.
Hera silently looked at Everly with a blank expression.
She brought Wayne and Everly out of the village since she had cared for them for more than ten years. But she never expected Everly to develop feelings for Bernard.
But that was understandable. Not only was Bernard handsome, but he had a good body and family background. Even Hera found him attractive, so it wasn’t a surprise that Everly liked him. However.. “Hera, I-‘Everly tried to explain.
“You don’t have to say anything.” Hera coldly interrupted.
She reminded Everly, saying, ‘If you want money, property, and fame, I can give you all that as long as you’re loyal to me. If you can’t do it, just leave!
“But if you stay with me, intending to take advantage of my trust toward you to take what doesn’t belong to you, don’t blame me for being ruthless! I can always take back whatever I’ve given you!”
Seeing her intentions exposed before everyone else, Everly lowered her head in embarrassment as her face burned.
If Hera had not brought her and Wayne along, Everly might still be working at the farm, rearing chickens and pigs in the village. She would be preparing medicine for the villagers to earn a living.
There was no way she could earn her current monthly salary even after working several years in the village. Besides, she even lived in a high-end neighborhood while being served by maids and cooks.
The pleasures of life had come too easily, making her wish she could have more.
“I’m sorry,” Everly choked out.
Hera icily took the medicine instructions from the table and handed it to Everly. “Go and prepare the medicine.
Everly bent her head and sniffled as she took the instructions before leaving.
“Sweetie, you were too soft,” Bernard remarked. If it were up to him, he would have gotten rid of Everly. He never liked disloyal people.
“She’s more useful to us if she stays.” Hera took the gold needles off Bernard’s face one by one and continued explaining.
“After all, it’s very tricky to find such a good herbalist like her in Jedburgh. If I send her away, she’ll work for someone else to make a living. Instead of having her as my competitor, I might as well give her another chance.”
Bernard was unwilling to give Everly a chance, but he would respect Hera’s decision since she had already made up her mind.
“If she doesn’t appreciate the second chance, I’ll get rid of her for you.”
Hera smirked. “Sure.”
Bernard watched her slowly use alcohol to sterilize the gold needles. Then, she easily found Tiramisu’s acupuncture points and positioned the gold needles there.
The sight shocked Bernard. ‘Hera!”
“What?” Hera noticed him staring at the needles on Tiramisu’s body. “Is there a problem?”
Yes, there was a huge problem. ‘Are you using the same needles I used earlier on Tiramisu? Am I not human to you? Have you forgotten that it’s an animal?”
“Tiramisu is like my son.”
Bernard wordlessly watched Tiramisu comfortably settle in Hera’s lap during the acupuncture process. It wasn’t his first time thinking of barbecuing Tiramisu.
