Under the Heiress' Facade novel Chapter 713

Bernard's voice was hopeful, causing Hera's heart to pound fast. She would not deny that she loved him. But Lucius' matter was still in their way.

Since Hera did not object, Bernard considered her to have agreed. "Sweetie, say you love me, okay? I want to hear you say that."

Hera's lips parted. She was about to answer when she suddenly noticed several figures at the entrance. She looked up to see that Catherine and Douglas had returned, followed by Aaron and Nathan.

Hera was at a loss for words.

When Catherine and Douglas walked out of the ward, they ran into Aaron and Nathan, who asked for Hera's ward number. Thus, Catherine decided to turn around and lead them directly to the ward.

Upon returning, Catherine realized that Hera and Bernard, who had advised her to stay earlier, seemed to have completely changed immediately.

It was Catherine's first time seeing Bernard plead so humbly, which completely changed her impression of him. Was he truly the same Bernard who usually came off so cold, making it hard for anyone to approach him?

In the past, Hera told Catherine that Bernard had taken the initiative, but Catherine did not believe her. To Catherine, that would only happen if pigs started flying.

Now that she had seen that version of Bernard with her own eyes, perhaps pigs indeed could fly.

"Are we disturbing you two?" Aaron cleared his throat.

"Shall we drop by tomorrow?" Nathan asked.

"Sure."

"No need."

Bernard and Hera answered at the same time. Hera immediately glanced at Bernard before turning to ask Aaron, "What's up?"

Aaron was impressed with Bernard's survival instincts.

"Hera, we found this in the Imperial Hotel's broadcast room while clearing the crime scene. It's yours, right?" Aaron asked while taking out a transparent bag from his briefcase.

The bag contained the broken conch bracelet, and only two out of four conches remained. It was indeed Hera's lucky bracelet that she cherished very much.

Hera's left hand was bandaged while her right hand was connected to the IV drip, making it inconvenient for her to take the folder. Thus, Bernard reached for the folder and opened it for her.

Hera skimmed through the document very quickly. The recorded confession matched what Linda said in the interrogation video.

Aside from a stamp, Linda's signature and fingerprint were found toward the end of the document. There was no way that the document was falsified.

After looking through the document, Hera passed it to Catherine, who began to tear up after reading through it. She finally knew the truth about Daphne's death.

"If you don't have any questions, the court will sentence her to death next week," Nathan reminded Hera.

She knew what he was implying. If she did not ask anything before Linda's execution, she wouldn't get any more answers from her after that. After all, the dead couldn't speak.

"I want to see her tomorrow. Could you arrange for that?" Hera inquired.

Nathan was about to say yes when Bernard cut him to it, "Let's do it the day after."
