Under the Heiress' Facade
Chapter 546

"You should speak about this with Rhett. It's no use telling me since I'm not their HR, nor am I responsible for recruiting talent," Hera calmly answered.

"I know. That's why I'm here to tell you that I've already signed a contract with them," Tyler replied while raising a glass to Hera. "Let us work together and defeat Bernard."

Hera was speechless, having never heard him to be so determined before. She recalled Bernard telling her about Tyler working with Rhett and asked, "When did you sign the contract?"

Tyler gazed at her mysteriously. "Are you trying to replace out my secrets?"

Hera was speechless. It wasn't even considered a secret if Tyler came over in a hurry to tell her about it.

Tyler drank the wine in one gulp before getting up and continued, "It's not like I can't tell you. Come and accompany me to a banquet, and I'll tell you all about it."

"What banquet?" Hera asked.

"My father's birthday party."

"I'm not going," Hera rejected.

"No, you must accompany me. Since Bernard has found a girlfriend, I've got to bring someone else with me. Otherwise, my father will arrange for me to go for a matchmaking." Tyler stepped forward and grabbed Hera's wrist, not allowing her to leave.

Hera wanted to free herself from his grip, but he was too strong, and she couldn't break free. She was rather speechless. "What does that have to do with me? Find someone else."

Bernard had a girlfriend, but Tyler wanted to bring Hera, Bernard's girlfriend, to the banquet. No, she was Bernard's ex-girlfriend. What kind of logic was this?

"I want him to see who I'm interested in. That way, he'll stop arranging matchmaking services for me," Tyler answered.

Hera smirked. "Are you sure you won't be beaten to death?"

"He won't dare to. I'm his only successor now unless he intends to pass on the position as head of the family to someone else," Tyler

afraid of the consequences. "So, you must help me since I'm your

explained confidently without by new

mentor!"

He ignored Hera's struggles and objections as he forcefully dragged her out through the back door and shoved her into the passenger seat.

Initially, Hera planned to get out of the car while Tyler was circling around to the driver's seat. But she heard him speak while opening the door to the driver's seat.

"You'll get something in return if you go with me. Once we're back, I'll show you my exclusive cheat codes that you can use on Vulcan. I even summarized his weaknesses."

The word "exclusive" made Hera settle down in her seat again as she peered at him. "You're not lying to me, right?"

"When have I ever deceived you?" Tyler started the car.

Hera wanted to retort, saying that he always lied to her, especially with what happened the last time. But she thought about it and recalled that Sable, who shadowed her the last time, was indeed Bernard's henchman.

Thus, she could not say that Tyler had lied to her. Hera just could not fully trust Bernard, making it easy for her to become provoked.

With Bernard in mind, Hera checked her phone for any new WhatsApp messages, but there were none. So, she typed, asking, "What happened?" Ten minutes later, Bernard asked, "Where are you?"

Hera thought he had an update on the photos and immediately answered, "I'm outside." She had no idea what Bernard was busy with since he did not reply for some time.

"When the Killians decided that they would manufacture their own chips, they sought me out. At that moment, I wasn't interested in taking on the job. "But I saw the news last night that you accepted the job, so I changed my mind as well. I signed the contract with them this morning," Tyler explained while driving.

Hera looked at him. "Did you recommend me to Rhett?"

"Yes." Tyler did not deny it and even

tentatively suggested, "I knew Bernard would never take part in this. Since you're doing this, I'm definitely joining you as well.

Together, we can infiltrate

family's systems, destroy Bernard, and take Killian Corporation for ourselves."
