Under the heiress facade

Chapter 779

"If you really want to thank me, you can bring me to the competition with you," said Hera.

What really caught her attention was that she could gain lots of knowledge if she went to the national robotics competition.

But only the contestants were allowed to enter the competition site. She wanted to tag along and see if she could slip into the venue.

Jeremy was on the same page as Hera. She had helped them at such a critical moment, so he saw her as a part of the team already.

"Sure," he said.

The venue was in Jedburgh. Hera got in their car and headed to the venue together with the rest of the team. When they arrived, Sonny led Jeremy and the others into the site to get things ready for the competition.

Meanwhile, Hera wandered around the site and learned quite a few things in her field of interest.

As she walked around, her phone rang. Seeing that it was Xavier, she answered the call. "Hera, where are you now? Can we meet?" Xavier asked.

He seldom asked to see her. It could only mean that something important had come up. Hera sent him her location. When he almost arrived, she reluctantly left the competition site and headed to a coffee shop nearby, where they said they would meet.

Xavier wore a baseball cap and a mask. But even with this disguise, he stood out like a sore thumb in the crowd because of his height.
