Chapter 84 

“Hey, Bernard, Theard from the guys you’ve got yourself a girlfriend. How come you didn’t bring her out to show us?” Shaun Thompson approached with a provocatively dressed woman on one side and an innocent–looking college girl on the other. 

Shaun was from one of the four influential families, the heir of the Thompson family. He was well–known as a playboy in their circle as he had a revolving door of partners. 

He was once thrown into the military by Alex Thompson for training, but he emerged into the business world after three years. He and Bernard crossed paths back then. 

“Stay away from me. You smell awful.” Bernard frowned lightly. He didn’t like the cheap perfume scent on the women. 

Shaun, aware of Bernard’s clean freak tendencies, clicked his tongue unhappily. “You’re still so picky. What land of perfect girlfriend did you find He then waved the two women away, dismissing them. 

“He hasn’t got her yet!” Aaron leaned in to whisper. 

“Huh?” Shaun raised an eyebrow. With a cigar in hand, he arrogantly asked, “Is there a woman in this world Bernard can’t charm?” 

Bernard was speechless. Shaun continued, “Have you given her yachts, houses, luxury cars, diamonds?”

“No,” Bernard answered. If he couldn’t even convince Hera to stay at Skyview Heights willingly, would he scare her off by directly buying her all those? He wasn’t too sure.

“She’s not that superficial” Bemard glanced at him, his eyes full of disdain. Why did he come to consult such a shallow playboy? It was 

Aaron recalled Hera’s cold beauty, the aloof air she unknowingly exuded, and her calm demeanor even after being attacked, Hera was indeed an extraordinary woman. 

“But how will you know if you don’t try? If you never try, you’ll never know!” he shouted atter Bernard’s retreating figure. 

The response was the sound of the door closing. 

Bernard walked out of the Imperial Hotel, and Douglas happened to pull up alongside him 

“Bernard, the Astral Nova has found the Eclipse Stone! It’ll be on auction next Saturday night at eight.” Douglas opened the back door for him 

Bernard nodded. “Go get ready.” 

Douglas responded, “Got it. Then, will you still be meeting Ms. Chime tomorrow?” 

The head of the Killian family, Chad, who usually ignored Bernard, suddenly became concerned about his health in the past few days. He even arranged a doctor for Bernard. 

This doctor was Camille from the Chime family.
