Under the heiress facade

Hera texted him back, saying, "I was busy just now, so I didn't hear your calls. You're right. I am back."

At the Cavenridge International Academy, the homeroom teacher of Grade 1 Class A was currently teaching when Gino felt his phone vibrate. He took out his phone and immediately stood up, interrupting his homeroom teacher. His teacher's expression darkened as she asked, "Gino Everett, what on earth are you doing?"

"Miss, I'm not feeling quite well today and would like to take the rest of the day off."

Before his teacher had a chance to answer, Gino immediately rushed out of his classroom with his phone in hand. Then, he quickly ran out of the gates and caught a ride back home while the security guards weren't paying attention. On the way home, he screenshotted his chat with Hera and sent it into their family group chat. Then, he wrote, "See, I told you! I wasn't lying!"

Five minutes had passed, yet no one replied to his message. He tagged everyone in the group chat, but no one replied, even by the time he got home.

Gino was dumbfounded. It was only when he entered his home and saw everyone surrounding Hera that he understood that everyone had just been too busy to reply to his messages.

"Aren't you supposed to be in class? Why are you home?" Hera was the first one to notice Gino standing by the door.

"I'll come home whenever I want. It's none of your business! Dad and Gideon have also skipped work to come home!" Gino said unhappily.

Hera found his stubborn attitude to be a little cute. So, she waved her hand and said, "Come over here."
