Under the Heiress' Facade

Chapter 350

Hera had thought everyone would stay up late and gather in the living room to watch TV together on New Year's Eve. After midnight, everyone would bless each other.

That was because Catherine used to do that to her every year.

But now, the living room was empty. Hera checked her WhatsApp and found that Bernard hadn't reached her yet.

She couldn't help but send another peeking emoji. However, he still didn't reply to her.

In her memory, the Killians were always busy on New Year's Eve but not too busy that they didn't have time to check their phones.

Hera was a little unhappy, so she returned to her room and began assembling her laptop.

Three hours later, a brand new high-end laptop was born.

She connected to the inte, hid her IP address, and swiftly entered Jadonia Cyber Web's URL into her browser. After entering, she logged in to the newly registered account Leon had given her.Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

Username: Not Alternate Account

Level: Newbie

Hera was speechless when she saw that.

Everyone could tell this was her alternate account as soon as they saw her username.

Cyber Web's registered username couldn't be modified. So, Hera had no choice but to browse the forum with that username to see if there were any tasks to take on and raise her level on the website.

There weren't many new posts on the forum, probably because of New Year's Eve. The most popular post was "You Will Want This Ultra-High-End, Portable Laptop".

Hera clicked on it and was curious about the model's configuration.

However, what she saw was a configuration list with elegant handwriting. It was the list she gave Gino.

Hera was at a loss for words.

Just then, Tiramisu jumped onto the table with a mobile phone in its mouth and put it in her hand.

Picking up the phone, Hera noticed a new WhatsApp message displayed on the screen.

Bernard, who had been missing for a day, finally texted her back.

Bernie: "Happy New Year's Eve, sweetie."

The message was followed by a transfer titled "Pocket Money".

Hera squinted at it. When she clicked to receive the transfer, Bernard called her right away.

She answered the phone and said, "You're so busy. Are you finally done?"

Bernard listened to her discontented tone

I

See and said dotingly, "We haven't

other for only 24 hours.

Do you miss me that much

"It's been 24 hours and 59 minutes. It'll be 25 hours soon."

Hera glanced at the time on the computer screen.

Bernard chuckled.

"You even calculated it?"

Hera said nothing.

"Say it."

"Say what?"

"Say that you miss me. I want to hear it."

Hera thought, "Even if I say that, you wouldn't show up. I'd just be torturing myself."

Still, she said, "I miss you, Bernie."

Right then, the time on the computer screen changed to midnight.

Fireworks exploded all over the sky outside the window. They were color

Tand lit up the entire n

sky. It was beautiful.

When Hera stepped out of the balcony,

her view became wider at

Mocking. The sky was filled with dazzling, colorful fireworks.
