Under the Heiress' Facade
Chapter 130

Camille opened her medical kit and administered a dose of medicine to Lennon. After a series ofswift and practiced maneuvers, Lennon finally woke up.

"Grandpa," Amelia exclaimed as she rushed to Lennon's bedside.

"What happened to me?" Lennon asked, glancing around in confusion.

"Dad, you've finally awakened. You passed out earlier and wouldn't wake up. Thank goodness forCamille," Queenie said gently.

She tactfully avoided any mention of the family scandal that had caused him to faint.

"Thank you, Camille," Lennon said to her.

"You're welcome, Mr. Gaskell Senior. It's my duty. You must be hungry after sleeping for so long."

Camille smiled, then turned to Amelia.

"Amelia, could you ask the maid to prepare some nourishing soup for Mr. Gaskell Senior?"

"Of course. I'll go now," Amelia said.

This time, Camille didn't rush off. She stayed in the room, ensuring that Lennon had something toeat and chatting with him. She prepared to leave once she made sure he was okay and had fallenasleep again.

"Camille, you truly are a miracle doctor. We owe you a debt of gratitude," Queenie said, takingCamille's hand and personally escorting her out of the room.

They seemed so close, as if they were best friends, leaving Amelia trailing behind themunnecessarily.

"Mrs. Gaskell, it's a doctor's duty to save lives. You're too kind," Camille replied with a smile.

Queenie remembered something and asked, "By the way, have you met Bernard?"

"I have."

Camille recalled their last encounter and felt a moment of awkwardness.

Queenie could tell things hadn't gone smoothly. Even she found Bernard intimidating.

Over a decade had passed, but she still couldn't forget the chilling look in his eyes.

Bernard, merely eight years old at the time, stood beside a figure drenched in blood, gripping aknife. His face and hands were smeared with blood, his eyes burning with a malevolence thatseemed to have spawned from the depths of hell.

The day after Bernard was brought back to the Killian family, he attacked the maid who was takingcare of him with a knife. Within just a month of returning to the Killian family, he had stabbed fourother maids.

No one dared to approach him easily, and no maid was willing to risk their lives to care for him.

Only when Lucius and Daphne intervened and offered to look after him did things begin to improve.

Although their exact methods remained uncertain, they gradually softened Bernard's menacingdemeanor.

"It's alright. Just spend more time together," Queenie regained her composure and comforted.

"By the way, I heard Bernard is searching for an anonymous healer. You could take advantage ofthis opportunity..."

"Well, isn't that a bit inappropriate?"

Camille hesitated.

She had heard about Johnson assisting Bernard in replaceing the anonymous miracle doctor. However,they hadn't contacted her yet, so she was waiting for their call.

"Bernard is also my cousin. Considering our close relationship, it's only fitting for me to arrange thisfor you," Queenie reassured, patting Camille's hand.

If she could arrange a meeting between Camille and Bernard, Bernard's position could be secured.With that, Camille would surely remember her kindness and support her in the Killian family.

"Ms. Chime, there you are," Julie Ludwig, the elegant woman Camille was with before interrupted.She rushed over with a woman in her 40s.

"That settles it then," Queenie concluded, no longer wanting to disturb them, and returned withAmelia to Lennon's room.
