Under the Heiress' Facade novel Chapter 117

Chapter 117 

This was how she felt after losing her home for over a decade. 

Hera hummed in agreement. 

“Get some rest. Goodnight,” Gideon said with a smile. 

“Goodnight,” Hera replied. 

Gideon didn’t immediately go to sleep when he returned to his room. Instead, he made a phone call to a friend who worked as a police officer. 

“Felton, did you find anything on the license plate number I requested?” 

He was referring to the car’s license plate number that had followed Hera home half an hour ago. 

“Yeah, I found something. The car belonged to the general manager of a Killian Corporation branch in Norburgh,” the voice on the other end confirmed 

“And who was the general manager?” Gideon inquired 

“Bernard Killan.” 

“Alright, thanks” 

After exchanging a few more words with Felton, Gideon hang up. 

He breathed a sigh of relief when he realized it wasn’t a dangerous person tracking Hera 

However, the thought of Bernard gave him a headache. 

Hera was still underage, and Bernard, who was in his 20’s, was clearly exploiting her youth. 

Unfortunately, Beard’s influence was too great, and the Everett family was powerless against him. 

Gideon realized he needed to work even harder to eam money for Hera’s sake. 

On the Cavenridge forum, Giselle’s scandal as the fake heiress and the notice of the Everett family’s bankruptcy had been prominently featured on the front page for over half a mouth. However, it was finallyburied under the announcement of the new round of selection activities for the academy’s new Belle and Hunk 

Previous editions of the Belle and Hunk selection process were spontaneous activities organized by students. But this time, it was initiated by the academy, which was a care 

Occurrence. 

The winning Belle and Hank would represent the students and perform a recitation on the stage of Cavenridge’s 80th–anniversary celebration, which would be broadcast nationwide. 

The selection process began with students nominating others or recommending themselves. The top ten males and females with the most votes would automatically advance. The winning Belle and Hunk would be determined through a speech competition organized by the academy. 

“Kate, should we all support Boss in the selection of the new Belle?” 

Several classmates gathered around Katie’s seat, 

“Absolutely! With Bess ethereal beauty, she’s bound to shine!” 

“I agree! I’ll go talk to the class president.” 

Karle immediately went to fetch the class president 

When Katie brought the idea up, the class president pointed to the forum request on the phone screen. 

“Are you guys idiots? Didn’t you read the requirements? The academy requires the new Belle to be a beauty and a scholar. Do you want to embarrass Boss before the entire academy?” 

Hera might be as beautiful as a ce 

as a celestial being, but everyone was well aware of her academic achievements
