Under the heiress facade

The room was an office.

Three monitors sat on the desk, which was facing a big whiteboard hanging on the wall. There was a relationship map drawn on the whiteboard.

There were two photos in the middle. One was a monochrome photo of a woman while the other was a colored photo of a man.

They were Bernard's adoptive parents.

The woman wasn't a beauty at first sight, but she gave off a sophisticated air. Bernard resembled the man a little.

Hera freed her hand from his grasp to peruse the information.

The relationship map covered the connections of his adoptive parents. Most of them were the Killians. The individuals involved were basically the same as the information she had as of now.

However, Bernard had slightly more information than she did. It was about the biggest beneficiary after Greg died and Lucius' imprisonment.

That year, before Albert died of disease, his will named Greg as the next head of the family. However, Greg passed on, and Lucius was sent to prison.

Rhett didn't stand a chance against Chad, and Bernard was too young back then. In the end, Chad ultimately became the head of the Killian family.
