Under the Heiress' Facade
Chapter 236

There was no way Gideon could sleep with Bernard in the same bed. He believed Bernard would never accept it as well. It was a battle between men to determine who would stay in this room. If he lost, the damn Bernard might push his luck.

For Hera's sake, he had to hold on and stay here. He would make Bernard leave!

Bernard had already seen through Gideon's attempt to drive him away, but Gideon underestimated his perseverance. This was originally his and Hera's room. Gideon was the one who should leave.

Bernard glanced at Gideon, who had been standing, and said, "You take the bed. I'll sleep on the couch."

Gideon was a little surprised by Bernard's generosity. He teased, "Mr. Killian, are you trying to please me?"

Even if Gideon did want to sleep on the bed, that wasn't enough to win him over. He had to make Bernard leave.

Bernard looked at him seriously and responded, "I always respect the elders."

Gideon's eyes widened as he gritted his teeth. "Elder? I'm only 25! If you think I'm old, then you're not young either! You're only one year younger than me!"

Bernard adjusted his glasses and said gently, "But you're not far from reaching 30. You're old enough to be an elder."

Gideon was pissed off. He was still young and would never admit to being old. He said firmly, "I'm young! Put away your respect!"

"Alright then. You sleep on the couch tonight." Bernard instantly got up.

Gideon froze. Damn it, he fell into the trap. Bernard provoked him on purpose!

After losing twice in a row, Gideon felt he had gotten off to a horrible start. He was facing a strong opponent. He had to replace another way.

Right then, the doorbell rang. Gideon turned around and opened the door, only to replace Hera standing at the doorway.

She wore her bathrobe loosely,

revealing her delicate neck and sexy

collarbones. Despite being

underage, her swimsuit couldn't

conceal her good figure, which

revealed her flawless curves.

Gideon hurried out and closed the door as he didn't want Bernard to see her.

"Are you alright?" Hera secretly observed him.

Gideon felt moved, believing she came here to show her concern to him. Despite losing twice against Bernard, he had a look of delight on his face and smiled at Hera. C'm fine. What's up?"

She thought for a while before reminding him, "Stay away from him."

Gideon's smile slightly stiffened. "Huh?"

He thought that what Hera said sounded strange. Could it be that she liked Bernard?

At the same time, Bernard opened

the ajar door from the inside. He et

stepped out and asked, "Sweetie, are you here to invite me to the hot springs?"
