Chapter 165

The sky had already gone dark by the time Hera returned to Skyview Heights.

She opened the front door, soon realizing that the lights in the living room were turned on. Tiramisu came bounding toward her merrily before nuzzling against her legs.

**Tiramisu, has your dad been behaving himself today?” Hera picked Tiramisu up and changed into her indoor slippers at the doorway before entering the living room.

Tiramisu grunted in response if it could speak, it would’ve complained to Hera that Bernard kept misbehaving throughout the day. Not only did he leave the apartment, but he also brought other visitors with him and kept Tiramisu locked up in its pen. Because of him, Tiramisu couldn’t even play in the living room.

Hera spotted Bernard, who was sitting in his wheelchair. He was still wearing the same silk pajamas from this morning. The light cast down on him made him seem a lot fairer than usual He didn’t even bother putting on his slippers, judging from his bare feet on the wheelchair’s pedestals

“Why did you get out of bed?” Hera asked as she put Tiramisu down

Then, she removed her jacket and hung it on the coat rack. She made sure to fetch an extra cardigan from the rack so that she could drape it on Bernard’s shoulders.

Even though the heater was already turned on, the fact that Bernard had just recovered from his illness still stood. It’d be very easy for him to catch another cold since he was only wearing thin pajamas.
