Under the Heiress' Facade novel Chapter 317

Chapter 317 

“If I said I’m just here to treat you, would you believe me?” 

Hera looked at the handsome face that was right in front of her, hearing the sound of a heart thumping loudly. She couldn’t tell whether it was coming from her or Bernard. 

His hot breath tickled her face as if it would melt her. 

“I wouldn’t.” Bernard’s magnetic voice was a little hoarse, sending shivers up her spine. 

Hera was speechless. Gideon really did a number on her this time! She would never be able to explain herself. The more she tried to explain, the more it would look like she was trying to cover up, so she gave up. 

Bernard also didn’t probe further. He just went to shower. 

After 20 minutes, the sound of running water stopped, and the door to the bathroom opened. Bernard was wearing a loose, white bathrobe and came out emanating cold air. 

Hera could feel the cool air on him. She realized that he had been showering for 20 minutes with cold water. 

She didn’t dare to push his limits any further, so she said, “Let’s stop messing around. Blow dry your hair and lie on the bed. I’ll administer acupuncture on you.” 

However, he didn’t move 

Hera raised an eyebrow. “You don’t want the treatment anymore?” She arranged her set of gold needles on the bedside. 

“Take this medicine first.” Hera handed him a glass of warm water and a black pill. 

Bernard didn’t ask any questions. He took the pill from her hand and swallowed it. 

Hera teased, “Aren’t you worried that I’m feeding you poison?” 

“No. If I die by your hands, it’ll be worth it,” Bernard replied. 

Hera clicked her tongue and retorted, “How cringe.”
