Everly's heartbeat began to pick up its pace as she read the message.

She immediately looked up to check her surroundings. Seeing that there was no one around, she exhaled a sigh of relief. However, her heart was still racing, while her hand that held the phone was trembling uncontrollably. "You can't betray Hera and Mrs. Jones!"

Everly tried her best to recall everything Hera had done for her, but she could not forget Bernard's handsome face.

They were happily chatting while walking out from the eastern wing, heading in the direction of the western wing. The sight made her extremely jealous. Bernard only seemed to smile whenever he was with Hera. But Everly also wanted him to smile at her as well.
