Under the heiress facade

"Let me drink more. I'll feel better."

Seeing this, Samantha hugged Hera in distress. One shouldn't be fooled by Hera's usual aloof demeanor and how she seemed indifferent to anything. She was merely suppressing all her emotions, which was why she did not express them easily. To Hera, as long as she did not care, others could not affect her feelings. Thus, she wasn't someone who trusted others easily. Even with Samantha, they took a long time to build up the rapport they had today. But it did not even take one year for Bernard to be the reason for Hera's current state. That indicated that she truly took their relationship very seriously.

"Alright, there, there. Don't be sad anymore. He's just a man. I'll find you another one. I still have several cousins who are single and even look rather handsome. I'll introduce them to you later," Samantha comforted. Hera downed another large glass of wine as her mind started to wander. After letting out a drunken hiccup, she asked, "Are any of them more handsome than Bernard?"

"Oh..." Samantha pondered over it. Hera was still comparing looks even though she was drunk. Perhaps no other man in this world could compare to Bernard's unparalleled attractiveness.

Bernard's voice came through the phone. "Sweetie, how do you want to split our time for Tiramisu?"

Hera was stunned for a moment upon hearing his familiar voice before angrily exclaiming, "We'll never split! It's mine since you gave it to me as a gift. How could you want to take back a present you gave away?" Bernard could tell that something about her voice was off. "Are you drunk?"
