Chapter 106
The burly man clapped his hands and returned to the room
He respectfully informed the grandmaster, “Bernard, the issue has been resolved.”
Bernard grunted in response.
The auction was already underway. He adjusted his posture, grabbed his phone, and launched the Whats App chat with Hera.
Their last conversation concluded with the message, “Beg me, and I’ll send it again.”
Unable to believe that she had ignored him, he tapped on the screen and sent her a message.
Meanwhile, on the fifth floor, Hera wasn’t interested in anything except the Eclipse Stone. So, she put on her headphones and focused on the matching tiles game
Suddenly, a WhatsApp notification popped up on her phone screen, so she clicked on it.
It was Bernard asking “Where are you?”
Her heart skipped a beat. Her first instinct was to check if he knew she was at the auction. She casually glanced around, scanning her surroundings
However, she couldn’t spot him on the same level or any level below her. The floors above the sixth were out of her sight.
She recalled mentioning the Eclipse Stone to Bernard before, so she expected him to be there with that in mind, she replied with another question instead of an answer
“Where are you?
Even though she was in disguise and unlikely to be recognized, she felt it was wise to know his location as a precaution.
Bernard responded, “Skyview Heights. Aren’t you returning?
He added a pitiful face emoji at the end
Hera was left speechless by his response. Instead of putting her at case, it only fueled her anger
that h
the wasn’t present at the auction venue.
She wondered if it was because she hadn’t emphasized enough about the Eclipse Stone’s potential to improve his condition. She even considered that he was perhaps simply not interested in regaining his health.
He messaged again, “Where are you now?”
She was annoyed and curtly texted her response, “Everett residence.”
She hit send and almost immediately received an invitation to video call him.
Her heart skipped a beat in fright. She hastily declined the call, though she couldn’t shake off the uneasy feeling.
