Under the heiress facade

After he was done talking on the phone in the yard, Bernard headed back into the house just in time to see Hera grabbing her bag and leaving the western wing. He glanced at the clock on the wall. It was already 9:00 pm. Where was she going to at this hour?

"Where are you going?" he asked.

Hera stopped. Based on her understanding of Bernard, he would stop her from leaving if she told him frankly that she wanted to go and meet Tyler.

"Samantha's feeling unwell. I'm heading over to her place to check on her," Hera lied.

"I'm heading out too. I'll send you there," said Bernard. He entered the house and grabbed his car keys.

If she let him drive her there, she'd be exposed. Hastily, she said, "You don't need to. Just go and do what you need to."

Bernard lifted an eyebrow at how calm she was to know that he was leaving at this hour. He asked, "Won't you ask me where I'm going? Aren't you worried?"

How could she be worried? Despite getting drugged, Bernard remained rational and kept his cool even after a woman tried to seduce him.

Anyway, since he brought it up, Hera might as well go along with the flow. She approached him and tugged at his tie.

"Are you sure you want to make me worry about that?" she said, her tone a tad menacing.

"Of course not!" Bernard answered without hesitation. "I would never do anything to make you worry! You're the only one for me!"

Hera smiled and smoothened out his tie, saying "Well then, I shouldn't be worried, right? Go and make yourself busy."
