Although Queenie was only from a collateral branch of the Killian family, she was of the sgeneration as Terence had called Bernard by his firstnin an attempt to be friendly. However, his efforts fell flat, and he was almost thrown out by security.
Hence, he quickly corrected himself, "Mr. Killian, I'm the CEO of Gaskell Corporation and would like to discuss the Shuttle Ventures investment with you.." The ground floor lobby was bustling with people. They were either there to seek investment or discuss collaborations. The people coming and going were all prominent figures from major companies. Seeing this scene left them all greatly surprised.
No one expected that Terence, the renowned CEO of Gaskell Corporation, would display such a submissive side. After all, the Gaskell family was ranked among the top ten prestigious families in Norburgh. Usually, others looked up to them, but now, Terence was acting so humbly toward Bernard It appeared that the rumors about the Gaskell family's downfall were tre "I'm busy," Bernard said coldly and walked away.
A large, black Audi was parked ourside the building. Douglas opened the back door for Bernard and then got into the front passenger seat.
Just as the door closed, Bernard asked in a chilly tone, "Why hasn't Gaskell Corporation gone bankrupt yet?" "It needs more time," Douglas replied with a wry smile. He thought Bernard must have been reading too many .
In fact, a corporation didn't just go bar krupt overnight. It would take tto exert pressure and break it down gradually, "The twasted will be deducted from your bonus," Bernard blurted out.
Hearing that, Douglas was rendered speechless. He immediately sent the smessage thrice to the management chat "Make Gaskell Corporation go bankrupt as soon as possible!" Since the day she made up her mind, Hera had been forcing herself not to think about Bernard anymore. She dedicated herself entirely to her pharmaceutical work, moved out of Skyview Heights, and went back to live at the Everett residence.
She stayed there for a whole week. Lilith and Gino were very happy, but at the stime, they sensed something unusual about Hera Ever since Hera moved out, she had never stayed hfor this long. Her daily routine was just between school and home. Once home, she would eat and then head straight to her room, locking herself in and avoiding all activities.
"Gideon, have you been cutting Hera's pocket money?" Gino asked as he watched Hera go upstairs after dinner.
Since the Everett family's bankruptcy, Gideon had been supporting the family financially. Now that Hera wasn't living on her own anymore, Gino wondered if it was because she couldn't afford the rent

Gino was left speechless. The m content is nt is on novelenglish.net! "Could Hera be having issues with her friends? She has been back for over a week and seems quite unhappy, Lilith said worriedly.
"Stop worrying so much. Isn't it normal for Heta to cback and stay here? This is her home!" Gideon responded.
Hera returning hlikely meant she had a fight with Bernard, that old man. Gideon thought it was good if they had broken up. That meant she wouldn't be stuck with that old man of the time, unable to chome! "Tsir chat obvious?" A cold voice suddenly cfrom behind them.
