Under the Heiress' Facade
Chapter 132

"Let's not rush into it. Let's see what she's up to first," Hera mumbled as she brushed her teeth withan electric toothbrush.

The Eclipse Stone was a coveted treasure, and many were eyeing it. Camille's intervention at thistime might have diverted attention away from Hera.

After chatting a bit more, they hung up. Hera finished her morning routine, headed downstairs, andwent for a run.

When she returned, the whole family, including the housekeeper, Judy McCoy, was gatheredaround the dining table reading the newspaper.

"Ms. Chime is Dr. Shadow. Should we ask her to see Mrs. Everett Senior?" Judy asked.

Since Hera's incident at the hospital, Georgia Hemsworth's health had been fluctuating, and shehad been recuperating there.

Hera remained silent.

"Gideon, why don't you try reaching out to her? Your grandmother has been in the hospital for awhile now, and the medical expenses are high. Moreover, they haven't been able to diagnose hercondition. Dr. Shadow could diagnose her more efficiently," James suggested to Gideon.

He had heard that Camille was still single, and so was Gideon. He thought that if the two could growcloser during this process, it could greatly benefit the Everett family's reputation.

"I think we should have Hera treat Grandma. My sister's medical skills are impressive!" Gino chimedin proudly.

His statement caught Lilith and Judy off guard. Both of them looked at him in surprise.

They seemed to question his sudden change in attitude toward Hera silently. Wasn't he resistant toacknowledging Hera as his sister before?

Gino remained unfazed, immediately changing the subject when he noticed someone entering theroom.

"Hera, you're back. Get ready. Everyone's waiting for you to have breakfast!" Gino exclaimed.

Hera glanced at him, a slight smile playing on her lips as she replied, "Sure."

Judy found the scene surreal, wondering why Gino, who was usually aloof, was suddenly soaffectionate toward Hera.

Lilith, witnessing this, felt tears welling up. Finally, Gino seemed to have softened toward Hera.

"With just a mere bracelet, you're suddenly all chummy with her," Gideon scoffed lightly.

"No!" Gino retorted emphatically.

Gideon glanced at his empty wrist adorned only with a Rolex watch.

He pondered when he would also receive a bead bracelet as a gift from Hera.

…

When Hera descended in a different outfit, breakfast was already served. However, no one touchedtheir food until she sat down and started eating.

After breakfast, Lilith tactfully asked, "Hera, would you like to accompany me to the hospital later tovisit your grandmother?"

As she asked, James, Gino, and Gideon all appeared to be going about their business. However,each of them was secretly listening intently. This was the result of their discussion while Hera waschanging.

Both Lilith and Gino believed in Hera's medical skills. But James, who hadn't witnessed them,expressed doubt and leaned toward replaceing the miracle doctor.

Gideon, however, thought it would be imprudent to directly request Hera to treat Georgia,particularly considering Georgia's past attitude toward her because of Giselle.

Taking everything into account, they decided it was acceptable to have Hera take a look at Georgiafirst.

"I'm busy," Hera said lightly.

Lilith's eyes dimmed at her response.

James gave a cold laugh as if to say, "See, I told you it wouldn't work. We'll have to replace the miracledoctor."

"I'll go next week," Hera added.

Lilith's eyes immediately brightened.

James remained silent.

"Hera has made it to the Belle finalists and needs to prepare for the speech contest next Friday.After that, she can go," Gideon explained.
