Under the heiress facade

Why wasn't Bernard asleep?

Hera returned a call to Bernard, who answered immediately, "Sweetie, what are you busy with? Why didn't you check your phone?"

"I was treating a patient. Why are you still awake?" Hera tucked the phone between her shoulder and ear and printed out the prescription she had prepared before handing it to Isla to sort it out.

"Let's get on a video call. I can't sleep without seeing you," Bernard whined.

Hera clicked her tongue. "I'm busy!"

Even so, she still started a video call.

In the video, Bernard was propped up against the headboard. The light highlighted his features, and the white robe he wore hung loosely, revealing a glimpse of his toned chest. Bernard smirked. "I saw you were looking for herbs. Do you need my help?" Hera guessed he must have seen her post on the Divine Forum. "No need. How's it going over there? Are the negotiations going well? When will you be back?"

Bernard smiled. "Not bad. Miss me?"

Hera didn't deny it. "Yes. If you come back earlier, I can even put on a show for you."
