Under the Heiress' Facade novel Chapter 178

Chapter 178 

It was clear to Gideon that Brandon and queenie pushed Hera around because they had more power and authority over her. 

He could only clench his fists furiously. If only he was a lot more influential and powerful. That way, Hera wouldn’t have to suffer from this injustice 

“Herz, why didn’t you deny their claims just now? Gideon asked. 

Instead, Hera’s response gave Queenie and Brandon leverage over her 

“What’s the use in denying it?” Hera shot back 

Since Brandon, the deputy police chief, personally handled a minor case like this, that meant he and Queenie must have conspired together to pin the blame on Hera 

This was the power of authority. 

Gideon’s fists tightened even more. Still, he did his best to comfort Hera soothingly. 

י 

“Don’t be scared. I have a few contacts who work in the police department. I’ll contact them later to ask for their help. No matter what, I’ll clear your name.” 

Hera smiled faintly. “Thank you, Gideon. I’m not scared at all” 

Her blatant trust in Gideon filled him with limitless vigor and energy. He mustn’t let Hera get sentenced to jail and leave a criminal record which would tarnish her life no matter 

what 

Meanwhile, Bernard sat on the couch in his residence at Skyview Heights. He was playing chess on his tablet to pass the time. Tiramisu nestled against him while fast asleep. 

It was rare for those two to stay in the same room amicably and peacefully. Soon, however, Douglas would shatter the cozy atmosphere with some bad news 

“Bernard, I was informed that Ms. Youngworth was taken away by the officers from Norburgh’s police department. Till now, she has yet to leave the station,” Douglas reported after ending the call 

Bernard paused in his movements. 

1. s. He raised his head immediately, his gaze cold and sharp. 

He had just dropped Hera off at the academy, yet someone was bold enough to whisk her away so soon 

“Mrs. Gaskell was the one who lodged a police report and had Ms. Youngworth taken to the police station. She claimed that Ms. Youngworth had assaulted and harmed Zyler, so she wanted Ms. Youngworth to be sentenced to jail, Douglas continued. 

After that, he added, “How should we deal with this matter?” 

It wasn’t optimal for Bernard to p personally visit the police station just to deal with the matter due to his injury. 

Bernard 

put 

down his tablet before picking up his phone. Then, he dialed a number. 

The call went through soon enough. Shaun’s playful voice drifted from the other end of the line. 

“Hey, Bernard! What’s up?” 

“Shaun, I have a job for you.” 

“What is it? Do you need me to become your wingman in your pursuit of love? 

“Take some men with you to the Norburgh Police Department right now and bail my future wife cut,” Bernard commanded kily 

“Holy shit! Who the hell’s that idiotic to lay a hand on your future wife? I’m going there right now!”
